207 00:19:24,059 --> 00:19:29,760 nice to be here this evening I have a couple of co-workers with me Marlo 208 00:19:27,780 --> 00:19:33,840 Freeman our community relations manager and our managing attorney Dustin 209 00:19:31,620 --> 00:19:37,860 Frederick is with me this evening I think you have a draft of the franchise 210 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:43,679 and you've had an opportunity to review it we began discussions in November with 211 00:19:41,340 --> 00:19:48,660 the mayor and the former city manager and Melissa and since then we've had 212 00:19:46,679 --> 00:19:54,780 several conversations via email and otherwise with Beverly Palmer so in 213 00:19:52,140 --> 00:19:59,340 front of you you have the draft that we would like to have approved this evening 214 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:07,080 and then it will go to a vote of the people in August on August 8th it will 215 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:12,059 be for a 25 year franchise agreement beginning at 3 percent which you're at 216 00:20:09,900 --> 00:20:17,640 three percent now and to just give you an idea of what we're talking about we 217 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:23,220 pulled numbers before we met in November of the last 12 months of the three 218 00:20:20,039 --> 00:20:27,780 percent fee that we collected on a residential commercial and Industrial 219 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:33,120 customers not including the transport customers and the amount collected in 220 00:20:30,120 --> 00:20:37,260 that 12-month period was 236 thousand dollars 221 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:43,860 so that's that was at three percent so this new draft includes it starts at 222 00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:49,200 three percent and then in 2025 it will go to 223 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:53,100 3.05 percent and then it will go up 0.05 percent every five years 224 00:20:51,780 --> 00:21:02,340 until um so 2030 it'll be 3.10 3.15 and 2035 225 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:06,000 and then uh 3.20 in 2040 till the end of the franchise so that'll give you an 226 00:21:04,679 --> 00:21:12,720 idea there'll be a little bit of an increase there we do have 227 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:17,160 included in this draft the ability to collect from our transport from the 228 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:23,220 transport customers in your community there are about 30 of those and we would 229 00:21:20,460 --> 00:21:29,340 be collecting a fee on the commodity that they are purchasing so our 230 00:21:26,580 --> 00:21:34,380 transport customers they pay us directly for the transportation the movement of 231 00:21:31,919 --> 00:21:38,940 the gas delivery to them and then they buy the commodity or the natural gas 232 00:21:36,419 --> 00:21:42,900 from a third party so we take an average at that cost because we don't know what 233 00:21:40,559 --> 00:21:48,299 they pay because they know negotiate that with their supplier so what we do 234 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:53,460 is we just take an average at that from several different sources and we collect 235 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:57,720 the three percent and then provide that as well so that would be the increase if 236 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:02,880 we look at that we did kind of a high level estimate on 237 00:22:00,539 --> 00:22:08,039 existing quantities and it looks like that would be about eighteen hundred 238 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:12,659 dollars a month if that if we did all 30 and that does 239 00:22:10,380 --> 00:22:18,500 include some schools and so we might want to exclude some of those but 240 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,500 they're there 241 00:22:19,980 --> 00:22:26,700 all right so it's it's there's a few other words and 242 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:30,780 several pages and I'm happy to answer any questions that you might have and if 243 00:22:29,340 --> 00:22:36,240 I can't answer them I know definitely can so we appreciate the partnership for 244 00:22:34,380 --> 00:22:39,840 25 years that we've had with this community and we look forward to a 245 00:22:37,740 --> 00:22:46,020 continued partnership any questions so am I section seven it's 246 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:50,940 got duty to move and alter lines can you explain some of those things 247 00:22:48,539 --> 00:22:57,840 that you had envisioned that you would pay for okay because it's part of this 248 00:22:54,120 --> 00:23:02,700 is It's kind of murky with with public you know excluding private entities 249 00:23:00,419 --> 00:23:08,400 which makes sense and and other public entities 250 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:16,380 right so what we are what we will pay to move are our lines in the public ways 251 00:23:11,940 --> 00:23:23,100 the relocation uh to expand streets and for the relocation of Ong facilities 252 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:29,760 within public ways to build expand new and existing City buildings 253 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:35,900 so if we're in the public way not private easement but public way then we 254 00:23:32,100 --> 00:23:41,580 would move is that so for a public way all of our 255 00:23:38,460 --> 00:23:48,480 we have plats in our city and so all the plants dedicate all the utility 256 00:23:44,100 --> 00:23:51,799 easements to the city and so our utility easements included in this 257 00:23:53,100 --> 00:23:59,220 they are if it's a public 258 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:02,880 it's a private and we're we're there because of a 259 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:07,860 private easement that we've obtained then it is not 260 00:24:04,559 --> 00:24:15,360 so a private easement would be that the private landowner for example we 261 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:22,380 so in 1970 if you got it from Mr Epperly and uh who developed a lot of this and 262 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:27,480 then he did the plat and all the lines were in the UT or in the right away in 263 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:30,080 easement would you cover those no if it's pre-existing 264 00:24:32,220 --> 00:24:38,520 so so for example oftentimes we have in some communities like that for growth 265 00:24:36,659 --> 00:24:42,539 opportunities say the roads expand and so we were private easement 266 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:45,900 and they come in and obtain the ability to expand out 267 00:24:44,159 --> 00:24:50,220 four lighting the roads well those were private easements that we had before 268 00:24:47,340 --> 00:24:53,600 they become became public so that is not covered 269 00:24:54,240 --> 00:25:00,299 under the purchased and easement or you know there's other methods that we could 270 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:04,200 get those easements for all and so we have a 271 00:25:01,620 --> 00:25:09,000 a pipeline that goes down Sunny Lane that's in the right hand lane that gets 272 00:25:07,260 --> 00:25:16,380 repaired by you guys about once a year once or twice a year just finished up 273 00:25:12,780 --> 00:25:20,880 so that one causes us an inconvenience is there a way to get that line moved 274 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:26,279 I would have to look and see what line it is and how large it is and 275 00:25:24,539 --> 00:25:29,039 see what the easement rights are there and obviously you've got to have an 276 00:25:27,419 --> 00:25:35,700 opportunity to have Lane to move it to as well and so we have lines that cross 277 00:25:32,100 --> 00:25:40,980 that follow sunny lane or or in fact that same Lane one that we're talking 278 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:46,679 that's going to most likely cross um I-40 at the sunny lane bridge 279 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:50,700 what do you envision happening whenever four to eight years and they start on 280 00:25:48,779 --> 00:25:55,980 the next phase of the highway reconstruction 281 00:25:52,620 --> 00:26:00,299 do you envision that that whenever they ask us to go and try to move that 282 00:25:58,020 --> 00:26:04,740 pipeline you think that you're at this part which again is all about the roads 283 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:10,520 being moved and it's our city of Del City right away because we were here 284 00:26:06,360 --> 00:26:14,880 before I-40 would that one be covered hypothetically you're asking for details 285 00:26:12,900 --> 00:26:18,980 I'd have to look in right so if it's an ODOT project 286 00:26:21,659 --> 00:26:26,880 some of those projects that are covered by ODOT they provide they reimburse on 287 00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:31,140 some of those projects but they're all specific we apply to ODOT for any of 288 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:36,600 those dollars that we can get to reimburse for any revocations so 289 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:41,940 they end up we could hope that they might pay some percentage of it 290 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:49,500 but we've been through this already with Sooner Road in particular where we had 291 00:26:45,059 --> 00:26:54,539 to relocate the ONG one and so our city ended up having to pay for you know 292 00:26:51,299 --> 00:26:59,400 fully for it or at least 125 000 or so to move that line 293 00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:03,000 so we have the interstate expansion happening again and as I read this part 294 00:27:01,260 --> 00:27:08,640 the problem that I have with it is is that you have other public entities so 295 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:17,100 whenever we're looking at I-40 the L City existed in 1950 53. 296 00:27:13,740 --> 00:27:23,400 48 sorry 88 1948 OMG yeah 10 you're one gas everybody 297 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:29,340 else you guys came in here very I would assume fairly close to whenever we were 298 00:27:25,919 --> 00:27:34,799 there and have adopted this part and the interstate was not there 299 00:27:31,140 --> 00:27:39,000 so it was the old cities easement and so 300 00:27:36,120 --> 00:27:43,260 I want to see before we go and sign this to get the ease get this part figured 301 00:27:41,940 --> 00:27:48,600 out before we go through this whole ritual again about moving 302 00:27:46,039 --> 00:27:54,720 pipelines because we definitely know that we're going to be expanding and 303 00:27:50,220 --> 00:27:58,559 changing out I-40 and for you know if we paid for the last one 304 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:02,820 and so we would like to see about getting something specified in this part 305 00:28:01,140 --> 00:28:06,360 because it's confusing in the contract if we went to court you know it says 306 00:28:04,679 --> 00:28:12,080 public entity it's like going it's public ways Public public ways public 307 00:28:08,220 --> 00:28:12,080 this part public ways is defined so 308 00:28:12,779 --> 00:28:18,860 if the only way the word existing in the location where a pipe is is because it's 309 00:28:16,980 --> 00:28:24,000 a public way that's owned by the city that is going to be paid for by us or by 310 00:28:22,020 --> 00:28:28,039 the remainder of our customers if we have rights to be there out 311 00:28:31,620 --> 00:28:39,000 now that's the easiest way to look at it right so can we get that in a letter so 312 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:43,320 we know that because I understand perfectly that you know that yes you can 313 00:28:41,220 --> 00:28:47,580 easily you can easily have a easement again just just like Mr erpperly or 314 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:52,440 whatever that example where you actually paid for that easement and I fully 315 00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:57,960 understand that part but this part about us moving the last one as far as I know 316 00:28:54,779 --> 00:29:02,039 that was that was a public easement we can look into the details of what that 317 00:28:59,580 --> 00:29:05,220 is I don't know what that project was I guess fortunately or unfortunately this 318 00:29:03,539 --> 00:29:10,140 is a legal document that's wrapped by attorney so when I look at it I know 319 00:29:07,740 --> 00:29:14,159 what that means and the enormous Palmer can understand what that is it's not you 320 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:19,400 know it's a legal contract so it is illegal 321 00:29:16,380 --> 00:29:19,400 in public ways as to 322 00:29:19,740 --> 00:29:25,620 fund the standard draft that we provide all cities that has standard definitions 323 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,039 in it for what all these things are so it's how we 324 00:29:28,620 --> 00:29:35,760 there's something in there that it is not understood clearly or misunderstood 325 00:29:34,020 --> 00:29:39,320 I'd be more than happy to look back to see if there's some adjustment to the 326 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,320 language 327 00:29:41,279 --> 00:29:47,460 okay so so I can tell you it is definitely 328 00:29:45,059 --> 00:29:50,940 confusing and it's meant and I and I was like going this is great until I read 329 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:54,240 all the caveats to it and it's like going ah this is their way out for each 330 00:29:52,559 --> 00:29:57,600 one of these things because because you can go and say that the public entity 331 00:29:55,980 --> 00:30:01,320 being Dot well just like you said oh that's 332 00:29:59,399 --> 00:30:04,559 Federal money and and so obviously we're not going to do it 333 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:07,740 um so if we could look into that and then the other concern that I have is is 334 00:30:06,539 --> 00:30:11,279 that the city of the village is building a 335 00:30:09,419 --> 00:30:15,720 park and I've been watching it because my my infrastructure is affected by 336 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:20,880 waiting for them and the village ended up just needing to 337 00:30:17,940 --> 00:30:25,500 have an important line that was very it wasn't buried deep enough to get it you 338 00:30:23,100 --> 00:30:28,679 know moved or removed in this part and it ended up taking them five months so 339 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:32,159 the construction is going on everything had to come to a complete stop 340 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:37,200 everybody's you know the streets are torn out everything's in a in a mess and 341 00:30:35,820 --> 00:30:40,380 as I'm reading this part that you know it's saying that you're going to do it 342 00:30:38,580 --> 00:30:45,779 as quickly as possible you know and so 343 00:30:43,380 --> 00:30:50,159 are did they have trouble because their contractor contacted you to go and say 344 00:30:47,820 --> 00:30:54,720 could you please do this work I'm just kind of trying to understand why would 345 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:57,020 it take five months up at the city of the village 346 00:31:01,020 --> 00:31:03,679 the knowing it just 347 00:31:05,460 --> 00:31:13,320 just across the state so I do not know the details of every project 348 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:16,640 going back historically that we've had and know the details of what that is and 349 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:20,340 there's many things that can lead to differences of why it takes so long that 350 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:24,360 maybe we're waiting on other utilities to move out of the way before we can 351 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:28,860 move it may be that there is a shortage of specific materials that need to be 352 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:32,940 brought in with you know especially here lately with all kinds of shortages on 353 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:38,159 materials that we're waiting on it could be just Crews themselves or getting into 354 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:42,440 you know there's only so much labor that can be done as well and so 355 00:31:43,159 --> 00:31:49,799 does your contractors the guys who are actually doing the work you know and I 356 00:31:47,340 --> 00:31:53,760 met a few of them and so forth and do they know that you have this part in 357 00:31:51,419 --> 00:31:57,240 contracts with the uh with the easements that says that you know you're going to 358 00:31:55,260 --> 00:32:01,380 do it with urgency you know with with some with some sorts 359 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:06,840 of urgency does does the rest of the people know to follow this part you can 360 00:32:04,140 --> 00:32:10,380 franchise itself to the communities that they had the franchises whatever 361 00:32:08,460 --> 00:32:15,419 specifics on timing in there to say each project is done by a certain amount of 362 00:32:12,299 --> 00:32:18,480 time I mean that's just unmanageable to say that 363 00:32:16,559 --> 00:32:21,480 of all circumstances we're going to look forward and having there a certain 364 00:32:19,860 --> 00:32:26,100 period of time that everything is done obviously projects have 365 00:32:24,299 --> 00:32:29,399 time and considerations whether it's emergency whether it's safety related 366 00:32:27,659 --> 00:32:34,320 compliance related all those things take precedence and then there's other items 367 00:32:32,279 --> 00:32:39,179 that could impact what the time frame is of certain projects being done but yes 368 00:32:36,659 --> 00:32:42,840 it is not detailed in a franchise that says every specific project of anything 369 00:32:41,220 --> 00:32:47,360 done is going to be done within a certain period of time right but again 370 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:52,220 that particular one was you know yeah right that particular one is the cost of 371 00:32:50,100 --> 00:32:57,659 City it costs the city a lot of money and the same way as far as for the right 372 00:32:55,559 --> 00:33:02,039 away the city of the village and the same way as for our moving of the Year 373 00:32:59,460 --> 00:33:06,659 other things so those are the two things that that you know I just would like to 374 00:33:04,380 --> 00:33:10,679 do but on the other hand is thank you for having such a such a thing as this 375 00:33:09,179 --> 00:33:15,419 like I said I was very happy to see those parts and like and I would just 376 00:33:13,380 --> 00:33:20,519 want to make sure that everybody is clear because you know our lawyer the 377 00:33:18,659 --> 00:33:24,659 different people that we ask you know we we have a specific project of I-40 378 00:33:23,100 --> 00:33:28,919 that's going to happen and why not go ahead and get this 379 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:32,519 figured out so we have an answer because once we sign this thing we're not going 380 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,940 to have this discussion anymore all of a sudden it's going to be no well I would 381 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:40,200 say that we would have discussions of how that's done so you wouldn't be 382 00:33:37,620 --> 00:33:43,980 putting specific projects that may or may not occur within a franchise of how 383 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:48,360 you operate so we do have communities that don't have franchises so I I will 384 00:33:46,740 --> 00:33:51,659 tell you that having the franchise is very beneficial because it lays out all 385 00:33:49,980 --> 00:33:55,679 the roles and responsibilities for both parties not just us but the city as well 386 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:58,919 so there's an understanding so I do think the franchise is very beneficial 387 00:33:57,419 --> 00:34:02,519 from that standpoint there are some communities that they don't have a 388 00:34:00,899 --> 00:34:06,240 franchise that they're working with and so there's not a document to point to 389 00:34:04,140 --> 00:34:09,780 these are the guidelines of how we're going to be working in 390 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:13,619 it's very difficult to take a project that I don't know the specifics about of 391 00:34:11,580 --> 00:34:17,159 where the lines in that may or may not occur at some point in the time and give 392 00:34:15,359 --> 00:34:21,960 a guarantee on what that is and who's going to fund it and pay for it so so 393 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:25,560 let's talk about a specific this is something that I've been 394 00:34:23,460 --> 00:34:30,179 contending with over the last two and a half years 395 00:34:26,700 --> 00:34:35,339 the address is 405 South Sunny Lane there's a gas line buried there and it's 396 00:34:32,580 --> 00:34:41,399 about six to eight inches deep and we can't pour a sidewalk because the 397 00:34:38,159 --> 00:34:46,200 gas line is too shallow we can't dig down and put the sidewalk in there's a 398 00:34:43,740 --> 00:34:51,839 section of sidewalk that's out and I have personally been complaining about 399 00:34:48,240 --> 00:34:55,080 that gas line for two years everyone smiled they'll send a man with 400 00:34:53,639 --> 00:35:00,119 a truck out there and he'll look at it and say yeah that that Line's too 401 00:34:57,359 --> 00:35:05,660 shallow our subcontractor ran the line too shallow and he drives off and we 402 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,660 never see him again is this 403 00:35:07,380 --> 00:35:13,560 it's on sunny lane and 404 00:35:11,579 --> 00:35:17,460 it's in the easement because we're trying to put a sidewalk in the easement 405 00:35:15,300 --> 00:35:22,440 and we have to stop there because we can't dig down below the gas line 406 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:27,900 and this has been an ongoing problem throughout Midway Village the gas lines 407 00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:33,359 are buried too shallow so are you telling me because the gas lines that 408 00:35:30,240 --> 00:35:38,960 run east and west from Sunny Lane would probably be in private easement 409 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:45,839 because it's going to be the homeowners backyards that's a private easement 410 00:35:43,020 --> 00:35:51,060 yet the the gas line was put in incorrectly in that it was put into 411 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:55,260 shallow and we've never gotten relief from that 412 00:35:52,560 --> 00:36:01,079 well but you're saying to relocate that line it becomes not your problem because 413 00:35:58,079 --> 00:36:06,180 it's in a private easement and I say it is your problem because you put the gas 414 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:12,660 line in too shallow and there was one hookup that I saw personally and they 415 00:36:09,900 --> 00:36:17,900 had to dig under the gas line and go straight down because it was too shallow 416 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:23,700 to come off the side or the top why have we not gotten any service in 417 00:36:22,020 --> 00:36:26,300 getting that line deep like it's supposed to be 418 00:36:28,500 --> 00:36:33,540 depending on what what are you talking about a main line 419 00:36:31,380 --> 00:36:38,760 or a service line service well a main line it's a six inch line that runs it 420 00:36:36,300 --> 00:36:42,300 feeds the neighborhood and so there are different requirements we have when 421 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:46,980 construction is done and if it's too shallow and it's on us we will lower it 422 00:36:44,820 --> 00:36:52,380 oftentimes we also find in cities where other people privately come and they do 423 00:36:49,140 --> 00:36:58,500 grading and things and they will make what used to be a much deeper line a 424 00:36:55,500 --> 00:37:01,440 and I've heard that excuse and there's a fence in there that's probably been 425 00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:06,119 there 40 years and the trees are grown up around it 426 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:11,099 that line has been there for a long time I I believe we've we've discussed this 427 00:37:09,540 --> 00:37:16,320 in the past yeah and I've not seen anything done 428 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:20,940 about it where the line crosses from Sunny Lane Road that's in a public 429 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:25,460 easement that portion is too shallow it's so shallow we can't put a sidewalk 430 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:25,460 there 431 00:37:26,099 --> 00:37:28,579 no no 432 00:37:29,460 --> 00:37:35,820 the curb has not been lowered and it's just barely at the curb level without 433 00:37:34,380 --> 00:37:40,280 the specifics in front of it we would have construction you know records of 434 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,280 when it was origin 435 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:46,560 well I know there's two gas lines that run through that neighborhood that are 436 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:51,619 probably six to eight inches deep what's the standard for burying a gas line what 437 00:37:48,780 --> 00:37:51,619 depth is 438 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:59,160 you're certainly an attorney I got to give you that well guys I probably know 439 00:37:57,900 --> 00:38:02,880 a lot of things there's a lot of differences between what you're doing 440 00:38:00,599 --> 00:38:06,000 and you can't just make overarching statements to Encompass all things of 441 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:11,099 course of course but so take note of that 442 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:16,920 address I I'm interested in getting these lines buried at a correct depth 443 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:20,280 now now the problem is if the city comes in and condemns that line for being too 444 00:38:18,599 --> 00:38:24,599 shallow all the customers on that line are going to suffer from lack of gas 445 00:38:21,839 --> 00:38:29,220 service so it's kind of a rock and a hard place 446 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:32,640 but it's not safe the way it is and so far all we've gotten is a guy to come 447 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:38,820 out with a truck look at it and go yep that's too shallow and he leaves is that 448 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:43,020 no that's a commercial property is that so what's the name of the commercial 449 00:38:40,020 --> 00:38:47,880 property Sonny's Auto Trim is the business that's there okay 450 00:38:45,119 --> 00:38:52,920 but the line runs south of it runs on the fence line it's it's the property 451 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:57,300 line and no it has not been graded it has not been lowered what I suspect is 452 00:38:55,859 --> 00:39:01,619 that line was put in there by a subcontractor and they did horizontal 453 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:05,640 boarding rather than putting in when they were replacing the original steel 454 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:11,579 line they went to that orange plastic and they used a horizontal boring with 455 00:39:09,119 --> 00:39:15,359 that and they put it too shallow and we've been complaining about it for two 456 00:39:13,079 --> 00:39:20,460 and a half years and we've not getting any responses so right now your track 457 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:23,099 record is is not sitting very well with me 458 00:39:21,119 --> 00:39:27,240 we can't finish our sidewalk because your gas line is in the way and that's 459 00:39:25,020 --> 00:39:31,940 in the Sunny Lane right away and that's a public easement is the natural gas 460 00:39:29,700 --> 00:39:31,940 account 461 00:39:33,180 --> 00:39:40,920 there is an account there but that line runs East I'm sorry that run runs West 462 00:39:38,460 --> 00:39:47,880 from Sunny Lane and it runs the length of the block it serves the whole block 463 00:39:43,859 --> 00:39:53,760 so that's is there a so so I mean both of these you know both of our different 464 00:39:49,859 --> 00:39:59,400 examples here is is there going to be a contact or somebody to go in in and do 465 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:03,900 these questions you know to resolve these things instead of you know that 466 00:40:02,099 --> 00:40:06,780 you call you know private people different people call out to try to do 467 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:10,800 this they want me to look up the issue in the village oh and we don't we don't 468 00:40:09,660 --> 00:40:14,400 need to worry about the bill we don't need to worry about the village Village 469 00:40:13,020 --> 00:40:19,400 finally got to talk about on the village we can 470 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,400 make some calls we can come 471 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,240 around 472 00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:33,060 again it's not about a single one it's about finding out how the franchise 473 00:40:30,660 --> 00:40:37,380 agreement is going to work because here are some of the examples that we kind of 474 00:40:34,619 --> 00:40:42,300 gave you and each one of them that where you look at is is nothing happens 475 00:40:40,140 --> 00:40:45,839 they're also actually very specific so but we do have a community relations 476 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:50,820 manager that that would be your contact just in general that you could call if 477 00:40:47,700 --> 00:40:53,640 someone has a question be able to know the note yeah 478 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:57,420 so okay and then I would just point out 479 00:40:55,859 --> 00:41:02,700 just to make sure you're all aware the franchise does expire in July is when 480 00:41:00,359 --> 00:41:08,400 that expires I I did talk to Beverly with the election cycle and just 481 00:41:06,420 --> 00:41:11,400 you know for a short period of time we could keep that open and still we met 482 00:41:10,140 --> 00:41:15,180 you know technically without the election passing we should not be 483 00:41:12,780 --> 00:41:19,200 collecting those dollars from customers because you all are aware it's a collect 484 00:41:16,740 --> 00:41:23,460 and remit so every dollar we collected a franchise view from our customers has 485 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:27,780 turned around to this so it's just to collect and remit so I did let her know 486 00:41:26,099 --> 00:41:32,460 that to the extent we had a short period of time between if we couldn't make an 487 00:41:30,060 --> 00:41:36,300 election prior to the expiration that we would continue collecting those for a 488 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:40,260 short Arena businesses just so we're clear this is technically a July 489 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:44,160 election but if we were to host it it would fall on July 4th the Tuesday July 490 00:41:42,780 --> 00:41:47,040 4th would be the election is that right Beverly 491 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:51,540 so we're moving it to August the election board has to be open for early 492 00:41:49,260 --> 00:41:54,900 voting and because of that the election board employees would have to work on 493 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:59,339 the fourth of July if we did a July election the the day of voting is not 494 00:41:57,720 --> 00:42:03,240 but early voting is so they'd have to be open so to accommodate them they 495 00:42:01,260 --> 00:42:08,820 actually called me and asked to see would that be appropriate and acceptable 496 00:42:05,220 --> 00:42:12,839 and then I reached out to Ong and they said that that would be fine for one 497 00:42:10,140 --> 00:42:18,900 month all right so another thing I didn't see in here is this 498 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:24,480 um is Ong paying for the election yes and uh 499 00:42:21,839 --> 00:42:28,680 I I think that should be it that's it all right I'm have something to say 500 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:33,599 thank you so much for being here you guys again I am quite new 501 00:42:31,079 --> 00:42:37,800 um so I did want to first of all um thank you guys so much for being here 502 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:42,859 um OMG of course is something that we cannot live without so I appreciate you 503 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:47,940 guys paying attention to our concerns knowing now the timeline 504 00:42:45,780 --> 00:42:51,359 um I think that that's something that we would be able to discuss and I think 505 00:42:49,579 --> 00:42:56,640 communication and building that relationship is probably where we would 506 00:42:54,599 --> 00:43:01,140 really benefit from so getting to know her hopefully being able to address 507 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:06,060 those uh personal issues or some of those individual issues I know you guys 508 00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:10,800 will be able to do that for us and hopefully thank goodness for councilman 509 00:43:08,940 --> 00:43:16,740 Dean who asked all the right questions and uh we can always depend on him to be 510 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:21,060 able to keep an eye out for us as well although I know that you guys are are 511 00:43:18,900 --> 00:43:25,560 here to do the right thing but I think with speaking I'd love to actually speak 512 00:43:23,099 --> 00:43:28,980 with you and and meet with you in more in depth so then that way we can get to 513 00:43:27,900 --> 00:43:32,640 know each other and hopefully start addressing some of these issues for some 514 00:43:31,079 --> 00:43:36,960 of our citizens because I know you guys do a great job so thank you guys for 515 00:43:34,619 --> 00:43:40,920 being here what 516 00:43:38,940 --> 00:43:44,700 fix it okay 517 00:43:42,180 --> 00:43:49,440 all right moving on we're at item a we have a motion and a second is there any 518 00:43:46,380 --> 00:43:54,119 further discussion yes so at this point we have a contract that does not that is 519 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:58,380 not specific enough 520 00:43:55,920 --> 00:44:03,480 for us to know and we have projects that are going to be 100 000 or more that we 521 00:44:01,079 --> 00:44:08,819 already know about coming up so my thought is that we 522 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:12,960 wait till the next meeting that we have an answer or a better specification on 523 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:17,040 it because it wouldn't take long for them to look at their maps to figure out 524 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:20,160 how many times they cross I-40 yeah and come back and tell us that we're going 525 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:23,220 to cover this one and this one and not this one because this one's in the 526 00:44:21,599 --> 00:44:31,079 private easement and we all agree and and we have something documented 527 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:36,839 so again I-40 was not there whenever our easements went in so we should not have 528 00:44:33,599 --> 00:44:41,280 to pay for it like we did last time so um City attorney are we going to be on 529 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:44,480 timeline for an August 8 election if we postpone this two weeks 530 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:54,599 putting it on this one was making it a little bit tight 531 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:59,760 we have to have everything submitted at least 60 days before so perhaps we could 532 00:44:57,420 --> 00:45:03,000 do june even when I submitted it the first time I thought we had enough 533 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:07,920 leeway and they actually needed excessive so if we did 534 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:13,020 did it do it one more continuance it have to be May 15th but I think what 535 00:45:09,660 --> 00:45:17,700 they need is specific addresses specific what's going to happen on I-40 exactly 536 00:45:15,720 --> 00:45:22,020 where is it because you can't talk in generalities you have to look at each 537 00:45:19,619 --> 00:45:27,000 property record and easement and what's there and how they come how they've 538 00:45:25,500 --> 00:45:31,260 acquired it and that's going to make the determination but unless they know the 539 00:45:28,859 --> 00:45:35,460 exact places I think it will be very difficult for them to give an answer so 540 00:45:33,780 --> 00:45:41,460 we could we could move ahead with ordinance 1417 and then when the final 541 00:45:39,720 --> 00:45:47,040 issues are hammered out in the contract then assign the contract 542 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:53,640 is that that's doable yes we can do that so do this however if 543 00:45:51,060 --> 00:45:58,579 we don't like the contract we don't sign the contract well no you're we already 544 00:45:55,980 --> 00:45:58,579 have the election 545 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:07,079 so I mean you can't do you can't do that without having your having this stuff 546 00:46:03,660 --> 00:46:11,220 done and it would you know and again I I called and tried to talk 547 00:46:09,900 --> 00:46:15,000 to everybody and everybody was going down to I think I had a bell or 548 00:46:12,599 --> 00:46:17,040 somewhere last meeting yeah um 549 00:46:15,540 --> 00:46:20,880 so again you can't 550 00:46:19,079 --> 00:46:26,280 call the election whenever we don't know what we're elected on right I think we 551 00:46:23,579 --> 00:46:30,119 could perhaps put it on the next agenda once again and see would that give you 552 00:46:28,980 --> 00:46:33,720 enough time Dustin to be able to look at all the 553 00:46:32,220 --> 00:46:38,099 specific only specifics and I'm sorry to do this 554 00:46:35,819 --> 00:46:42,720 is this the mayor has a great thing and not you know but the only ones that 555 00:46:40,260 --> 00:46:47,220 truly make a a huge difference to the city is as we know for a fact that we're 556 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:52,140 going to be moving gas lines all it would take me is about two 557 00:46:49,740 --> 00:46:55,800 minutes to look at your gas gas line map and ask you about these you know you 558 00:46:54,119 --> 00:46:58,160 know whichever runs across is under I'm 40. 559 00:47:04,140 --> 00:47:11,819 Hey sir sir just yes right so 940. okay does the other two understand this is 560 00:47:09,240 --> 00:47:15,540 that you've had you had the maps you know how many times you crossed the 561 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:19,619 interstate between and it's going to be treasure Creek which is just to the east 562 00:47:17,700 --> 00:47:23,400 of uh that's where they stopped the under the construction and it goes over 563 00:47:21,839 --> 00:47:28,619 to Bryant and so in that distance you just look 564 00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:32,880 for those Crossings and we get an answer on those crosses and we and like I said 565 00:47:30,780 --> 00:47:34,920 maybe you have one main line that you have a private easement from the 566 00:47:34,140 --> 00:47:39,240 beginning sure you don't pay for that one but the 567 00:47:36,839 --> 00:47:42,900 ones that we have these let's just bring those things in or have your guys come 568 00:47:40,859 --> 00:47:45,980 because it is a time crunch I would like for you guys to get it done 569 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:56,819 this isn't a maybe a project this is going to be a project 570 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,839 I would say let's just go ahead and vote on this this evening 571 00:48:12,780 --> 00:48:15,440 finding out 572 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,040 for me to answer 573 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:29,040 does our community direct do you understand what we're asking for 574 00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:32,520 okay okay and can we get that done in the 575 00:48:31,020 --> 00:48:35,940 next two weeks before our next meeting so we have an answer 576 00:48:34,319 --> 00:48:38,480 because if not we're not going to make it in August 577 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:47,760 why would it why would this be difficult either one you're in the right of way 578 00:48:45,720 --> 00:48:51,660 and the easement or you're not in easement this isn't this isn't a rocket 579 00:48:49,859 --> 00:48:56,400 science type of thing is it either one it applies or it doesn't do you remember 580 00:48:53,400 --> 00:49:00,420 how you said that the attorney should be able to answer that question for us you 581 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:04,800 can't answer the question I mean it again if it's in right away then yes you 582 00:49:02,940 --> 00:49:10,079 guys do it and if it's not in it if it's in a private easement then we do it 583 00:49:07,319 --> 00:49:14,339 we understand that right 584 00:49:11,599 --> 00:49:19,380 I'm not asking you to do that do you understand okay okay hold it hold it all 585 00:49:17,220 --> 00:49:26,400 right that's enough that's enough look we can approve this ordinance 586 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:30,060 and then not signing the contract until we get the answers that we know even 587 00:49:28,380 --> 00:49:33,599 though it's scheduled for election we can still work this out we have plenty 588 00:49:31,740 --> 00:49:38,520 of time to work this out let's move forward with this let's vote on this we 589 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:42,900 have a motion in a second let's vote on it and we we're just not going to sign 590 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:47,040 the existing contract that's presented to us tonight 591 00:49:44,579 --> 00:49:50,640 that will give the City attorney time to walk through it and and consider some of 592 00:49:49,319 --> 00:49:54,359 these objections that we're talking about here 593 00:49:52,140 --> 00:49:58,380 can you do that Beverly yes I can certainly do that but it kind of comes 594 00:49:56,700 --> 00:50:02,160 down to the specifics on each location as they said if it's something that they 595 00:50:00,420 --> 00:50:06,180 had pre-existing that they bought from somebody whether it be a long long time 596 00:50:04,619 --> 00:50:11,099 ago if they paid to be there and they had the right they will not pay if it's 597 00:50:09,060 --> 00:50:16,920 ours and they're an R right away then they'll pay and I sent out examples to 598 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:20,700 councilman Dean okay so it will depend on every location and you'd have to look 599 00:50:18,780 --> 00:50:24,960 at each spot along the way we're specifically asking about Crossing I-40 600 00:50:23,460 --> 00:50:29,040 because we know that's coming in about five six years and that's why we're 601 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:34,200 being specific about that piece but that term the terminology would also apply to 602 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:37,859 that and I'm satisfied that that we can work that so 603 00:50:35,700 --> 00:50:43,800 all right let's move forward we have a motion and a second on the floor 604 00:50:40,619 --> 00:50:46,700 let's take the vote councilman Finch aye councilman Gandy 605 00:50:45,599 --> 00:50:51,960 aye councilman Brown 606 00:50:49,500 --> 00:50:57,119 aye councilman Dean no

00:53:33,720 --> 00:53:41,940 I hear a motion I'll make a motion to approve as written 633 00:53:39,059 --> 00:53:47,240 authorized American door same direct staff accordingly 634 00:53:44,700 --> 00:53:47,240 second 635 00:53:47,700 --> 00:53:53,460 we have a motion in a second is there any discussion 636 00:53:51,359 --> 00:53:58,099 yes so once again an item a 637 00:53:55,140 --> 00:53:58,099 with the ordinance 638 00:53:58,460 --> 00:54:07,260 we're done with item a I'm sorry I'm discussing the item C thank you but 639 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:13,680 Madam counselor is there any way to keep them signing 640 00:54:09,240 --> 00:54:18,480 the contract as it's in how to make the items because we've approved it and 641 00:54:16,260 --> 00:54:23,520 it says to have the mayor endorse the same so with the way that it's been done 642 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:26,520 is there any way you know any of these different thoughts or questions or 643 00:54:24,780 --> 00:54:33,059 clarifications is there any reason for them to do this the reason to approve 644 00:54:30,540 --> 00:54:38,940 and have a special election Proclamation is so that we can have the election the 645 00:54:35,579 --> 00:54:45,300 items that are going to the people are do we want to continue on with a 25-year 646 00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:50,099 agreement with Ong or do we not in the election they are not reading every word 647 00:54:47,460 --> 00:54:54,119 of our ordinance so I believe that we could possibly massage this and what's 648 00:54:52,740 --> 00:54:57,540 in the packet about what the proclamation is and what the resolution 649 00:54:56,099 --> 00:55:01,800 is is that we're going to continue on with this relationship so I think that 650 00:54:59,700 --> 00:55:06,300 you could be able to do this and we could still modify within a short time 651 00:55:04,020 --> 00:55:12,380 the ordinance that we would want to get that on file this is basically to allow 652 00:55:09,059 --> 00:55:12,380 us to call an election 653 00:55:14,700 --> 00:55:21,559 all right but we didn't authorize a modification 654 00:55:19,079 --> 00:55:21,559 to a 655 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:30,480 pre-approved so we're on item C I know mayor but 656 00:55:28,859 --> 00:55:35,280 we're gonna do the special election again that's the question that's the 657 00:55:33,119 --> 00:55:40,740 question but again for everybody to know is the only way to at all possibly slow 658 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:46,319 down this train that that we have now made a mistake on in item a 659 00:55:43,260 --> 00:55:54,740 by trying to rush this thing through is to stop one of these two 660 00:55:48,780 --> 00:55:54,740 just stop what to stop item C or B 661 00:55:56,420 --> 00:56:02,880 if we don't approve item C so the question is is in item a we approved it 662 00:56:01,260 --> 00:56:08,940 as it was written there's no modification there as it's written it 663 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:12,900 says ordinance number 04 or 1417 granting to Oklahoma Natural Gas a 664 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:16,680 division of one gas a non-exclusive franchise for the installation operation 665 00:56:14,940 --> 00:56:21,480 and maintenance of a gas distribution system in the city of Del City and the 666 00:56:19,079 --> 00:56:26,339 selling of gas therein for a term of 25 years authorized mayor to endorse things 667 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:30,980 so that says we are grading a franchise that does not dictate the terms of the 668 00:56:28,559 --> 00:56:30,980 franchise 669 00:56:31,079 --> 00:56:38,760 which item dictates the terms of the franchise and at what point do we what 670 00:56:36,540 --> 00:56:43,800 point do we the actual contract dictates the terms and so which of these items 671 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:50,099 actually allows that contract to be reviewed by Council the the council 672 00:56:46,940 --> 00:56:53,339 approving of that contract that that's the question that I understand okay I 673 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:57,000 understand City attorney 674 00:56:55,079 --> 00:57:03,319 you're talking about massaging the contract that's what we're talking about 675 00:56:58,559 --> 00:57:03,319 is making the contract work 676 00:57:04,319 --> 00:57:09,300 councilman Gandy does have a good point when he said that they it's supposed to 677 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:14,040 be approved or approved with modifications or deny and I believe that 678 00:57:11,220 --> 00:57:18,780 the motion was for approve although we did speak about the modifications so 679 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:22,079 perhaps we need to clarify what the approval is to approve with 680 00:57:20,099 --> 00:57:28,140 modifications on item a is that I think that's what 681 00:57:25,859 --> 00:57:34,079 councilman Dean are you suggesting that we go back and re-run item a and approve 682 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:40,140 with modifications with modifications yes I'm okay with that 683 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:44,280 that proposal so we're going to retract that vote 684 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:51,000 now we're getting in some Uncharted water I think that we would be modifying 685

--> 01:09:42,179 issue that was on social media if you can say anything 835 01:09:40,259 --> 01:09:45,900 just to put sure hearts and ease on that sure 836 01:09:43,739 --> 01:09:49,199 um that came up on social media real fast 837 01:09:46,819 --> 01:09:53,940 and if you didn't see it there's a short video that a citizen took of a 838 01:09:52,140 --> 01:09:58,080 male subject and more of a stocking mask and carrying 839 01:09:55,980 --> 01:10:03,960 what looked to be a weapon rifle and headed toward the front of the CVS 840 01:10:00,620 --> 01:10:08,760 he never made it into the CVS he was in the parking lot he actually started 841 01:10:06,060 --> 01:10:13,199 south of 44th in Oklahoma City pointing it whatever he was doing over 842 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:15,800 there Oklahoma City

the time Oklahoma City was taking him into 845 01:10:24,480 --> 01:10:32,460 custody it was male subject that had a lot of mental health problems it was not 846 01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:37,260 a real

my grammar but it's always good that the citizens know the 853 01:11:00,060 --> 01:11:06,900 details especially in situations like that because one guy was saying oh it 854 01:11:03,960 -->

--> 01:23:24,420 questions before we get technical if you can just 1005 01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:27,659 give us an overview of why we're doing this as a city and then I'll go into the 1006 01:23:26,580 --> 01:23:30,480 financial and then we can go into specifics all right 1007 01:23:29,580 --> 01:23:38,360 um this is bringing our 1008 01:23:32,820 --> 01:23:38,360 older meters up to current standards 1009 01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:46,140 we have some possibly some meters dating back to the 60s if that's where I was 1010 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:50,400 going we haven't been quite old only a few in the 60s but we have some in the 1011 01:23:47,820 --> 01:23:54,540 70s but as they're like a car they wear out so this will bring them up to new 1012 01:23:52,560 --> 01:24:00,140 standards the newer meters we're looking at are non-moving parks so they do not 1013 01:23:57,060 --> 01:24:05,880 wear out like the current ones we have these are also automated readers 1014 01:24:03,060 --> 01:24:12,060 or leader excuse me that um basically they will send a signal 1015 01:24:08,100 --> 01:24:16,860 back to Seattle City Hall and they actually will get a read in hourly or 1016 01:24:15,060 --> 01:24:20,060 it'll tell you basically how many gallons you use every hour 1017 01:24:20,460 --> 01:24:28,580 so we can be able to see people that have leaks and know when they have to 1018 01:24:24,780 --> 01:24:35,340 leak you can you can set an alarm spike in usage at a house if a person's 1019 01:24:31,860 --> 01:24:39,780 water pipe freezes and bursts we'll be able to monitor that there's a customer 1020 01:24:37,620 --> 01:24:45,360 portal that comes along with this to where each homeowner can either set 1021 01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:48,540 alarms for so much use or different parameters they can set for so much 1022 01:24:47,340 --> 01:24:54,239 usage or fast usage I believe there's a lot of 1023 01:24:52,500 --> 01:24:59,760 different aspects that will be really nice to have 1024 01:24:57,420 --> 01:25:05,340 another Advantage is instead of having four meter readers out there we can 1025 01:25:02,100 --> 01:25:10,679 reassign three of them to say Parks and Rec and just have one meter reader 1026 01:25:08,460 --> 01:25:15,960 and we'll be getting the accurate readings not dependent on the guy going 1027 01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:20,820 out and having to move a brush pile to find the meter to dig in and get it so 1028 01:25:18,780 --> 01:25:26,000 that's a tremendous advantage in the Savings in Manpower 1029 01:25:22,620 --> 01:25:31,140 love to have these during the ice storm plus the accuracy that's a big factor 1030 01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:35,580 for the city because we're we're experiencing a lot more water is going 1031 01:25:33,060 --> 01:25:39,719 out than is being accounted for all right 1032 01:25:36,659 --> 01:25:41,900 do you know how many other cities use this 1033 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:53,460 I mean these are worldwide it's not a 1034 01:25:50,940 --> 01:25:57,480 I mean there's different companies different configurations but 1035 01:25:55,560 --> 01:26:03,480 uh be similar across the board this new 1036 01:26:00,780 --> 01:26:07,880 okay this is a 20-year program is that right 1037 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:07,880 the 1038 01:26:08,340 --> 01:26:14,639 um that's the goal is to have them now 1039 01:26:13,260 --> 01:26:17,239 they're going to be able to explain this more honey 1040 01:26:18,480 --> 01:26:21,679 let's go ahead and bring them up 1041 01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:28,760 okay 1042 01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:33,620 who's going to go first Dan or Bruce 1043 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:41,100 okay you hello uh my name is Dan Hardin I'm 1044 01:26:39,900 --> 01:26:46,260 the president of innovative utility Solutions so yeah feel free to ask any 1045 01:26:43,860 --> 01:26:51,300 questions I know Craig had sent us three questions originally before this meeting 1046 01:26:48,780 --> 01:26:54,840 I'll go ahead and address those one of the questions was what happens when this 1047 01:26:52,980 --> 01:26:59,040 goes from since it is a cellular based technology the radio information what 1048 01:26:56,820 --> 01:27:03,360 happens when it goes from 4G to 5G to 6G to 7g is it out of commission the answer 1049 01:27:01,679 --> 01:27:07,560 to that is no the only thing that changes as we're upgrading to the 1050 01:27:05,340 --> 01:27:12,480 generational networks is with your cell phones this operates on a network called 1051 01:27:09,900 --> 01:27:16,260 cat M1 which is a lower level of cellular technology 1052 01:27:14,460 --> 01:27:19,380 um so it's the same that police fire and military use it's a much lower level 1053 01:27:18,060 --> 01:27:23,460 because all we're sending is little bits of data so it could go to 20g 30g it 1054 01:27:22,199 --> 01:27:25,800 doesn't matter this will stay the same okay 1055 01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:28,860 um so it's completely different than the typical ones you would use for your cell 1056 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:32,400 phone so so we have no anticipation of that ever going away it's actually the 1057 01:27:30,960 --> 01:27:37,560 same technology they're using on the little scooters that you see in downtown 1058 01:27:34,260 --> 01:27:42,060 areas dog collars little bits of information so that will stay standard 1059 01:27:39,179 --> 01:27:46,860 for the next 20 to 30 years okay the next question was in regards to any 1060 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:50,580 Legacy costs so I wasn't really sure what you guys were asking as far as 1061 01:27:48,179 --> 01:27:55,260 Legacy costs but the way we bid this is a complete 20-year 1062 01:27:52,920 --> 01:28:00,300 package so the way smarter Technologies does their pricing is they go out into 1063 01:27:58,199 --> 01:28:04,739 the cellular market and they buy the data in bulk and so we get a huge 1064 01:28:02,880 --> 01:28:09,179 discount on buying all this data so we can price you a 20-year system without 1065 01:28:07,260 --> 01:28:14,280 any additional cost for the next 20 years so we're buying all that data all 1066 01:28:11,760 --> 01:28:18,480 the software hosting everything in bulk so that way there's no additional cost 1067 01:28:16,080 --> 01:28:22,800 for the system the way we fit it which includes integration into your billing 1068 01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:27,300 software and the consumer portal the only other additional cost that may 1069 01:28:24,900 --> 01:28:32,100 arise is if you ever wanted us to take our software and integrate it into a GIS 1070 01:28:29,340 --> 01:28:35,460 software or a work order software any additional 1071 01:28:33,480 --> 01:28:38,219 software Integrations that would be a separate price which we would discuss 1072 01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:42,900 beforehand so the Legacy question was when we get 1073 01:28:40,139 --> 01:28:48,300 your meters that are you know 4.5 is the version and you come out with 6.0 7.0 1074 01:28:45,540 --> 01:28:52,739 8.5 you're not going to have to send us a a fee because now your seven 1075 01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:57,239 generations ahead and we're still on the same 20-year plan right so no there will 1076 01:28:55,560 --> 01:29:01,699 not that includes all additional upgrades and features that come with it 1077 01:28:59,159 --> 01:29:06,780 for the next 20 years our endpoints are 2A connectivity so we 1078 01:29:05,040 --> 01:29:11,340 can actually send over the over there to them so if a new feature 1079 01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:14,820 comes out we can set another upgrade back at 1080 01:29:13,500 --> 01:29:18,179 silver the next any upgrades 1081 01:29:16,440 --> 01:29:21,300 will absolutely be yeah very similar to your cell phone 1082 01:29:19,679 --> 01:29:24,780 when you get apple that sends you hey you have an update same thing except we 1083 01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:29,719 just push it out to the whole system automatically they slow down our meter 1084 01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:29,719 yeah 1085 01:29:30,679 --> 01:29:37,260 you start using them too much we're going to slow them down 1086 01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:41,639 so this includes all the hardware software it's a turnkey project TurnKey 1087 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:44,780 project installation and everything you guys go out and install them 1088 01:29:45,800 --> 01:29:52,139 thank you yes but we will have a crew come out they'll 1089 01:29:50,219 --> 01:29:56,159 uh manage the project as well as I'll manage the project as well go out do the 1090 01:29:53,820 --> 01:29:58,920 installation test the network um the smarter people will be on site 1091 01:29:57,719 --> 01:30:02,760 quite frequently working with the billing software to make sure that 1092 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:06,360 integrates uh so yeah it's it's a very drawn out process so we've made sure we 1093 01:30:04,500 --> 01:30:11,280 accomplish every step along the way one of the questions I had also is to make 1094 01:30:08,219 --> 01:30:17,340 sure that you guys will be on hand and available not for just a short term for 1095 01:30:14,580 --> 01:30:23,400 like a year excuse me but you guys would be available without any extra fees for 1096 01:30:20,460 --> 01:30:27,480 customer service for any questions for billing issues you guys would be pretty 1097 01:30:25,260 --> 01:30:33,320 handy and would you guys be direct or are we calling a 1-800 number 1098 01:30:29,639 --> 01:30:33,320 um all of it yeah 1099 01:30:42,350 --> 01:30:45,549 [Music] 1100 01:30:46,920 --> 01:30:53,300 Dance Project every day 1101 01:30:50,639 --> 01:30:53,300 and 1102 01:31:10,260 --> 01:31:14,060 it's like this is built into the project 1103 01:31:14,639 --> 01:31:19,739 yeah so there's multiple levels of support there's there's IUS support 1104 01:31:17,820 --> 01:31:23,520 there's set support set will have a project manager that will be assigned to 1105 01:31:21,600 --> 01:31:26,940 you guys and then again we have customer service people that are in California 1106 01:31:25,020 --> 01:31:30,780 and they're available either via chat box or an 800 number so there's multiple 1107 01:31:29,340 --> 01:31:34,679 levels of being able to get somebody to help you and there's no additional 1108 01:31:32,100 --> 01:31:38,580 charge for that for the full 20 years so um that kind of leads into the third 1109 01:31:36,480 --> 01:31:42,840 question was will we train your meter technicians on how to maintain the 1110 01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:46,739 system and the answer is yes so not only will we train the meter technicians uh 1111 01:31:45,179 --> 01:31:51,360 we'll train billing clerks how to do billing software and integrate 1112 01:31:48,360 --> 01:31:55,860 everything we can do that on-site or via the web so if you get new meter 1113 01:31:54,000 --> 01:32:00,360 technicians or a new billing Clerk and they need to be retrained we again can 1114 01:31:57,840 --> 01:32:03,960 come out and do it again at charge we want the system to work for you guys for 1115 01:32:02,100 --> 01:32:08,040 20 years because it benefits us as well to have happy customers to help other 1116 01:32:06,179 --> 01:32:11,699 cities how well the system is working so yes all of that is included in the 1117 01:32:09,540 --> 01:32:16,500 20-year class so I assume this has some sort of battery in the system correct 1118 01:32:13,980 --> 01:32:20,699 and what's the estimated lifespan of that battery so what happens in the 1119 01:32:18,600 --> 01:32:24,780 event the battery goes out before we get to it to change it okay so if the 1120 01:32:23,100 --> 01:32:29,880 battery on the radio goes out these are the 10 and 10 or 15. they are the 10 and 1121 01:32:28,080 --> 01:32:34,080 10. so it is a 10-year full replacement warranty and then we warranty the 1122 01:32:31,679 --> 01:32:38,219 remaining 10 years at a prorated rate so for example if they go bad at year 18 1123 01:32:36,060 --> 01:32:41,880 there'll be a small cost just to replace the entire radio 1124 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:45,960 but the nice thing is within the software it tells you the battery life 1125 01:32:43,380 --> 01:32:50,040 of every unit in the system so it's not like at year 17 they're all just going 1126 01:32:48,179 --> 01:32:56,460 to go kaput and you're right but what's the projected life of just say a genetic 1127 01:32:52,800 --> 01:33:00,920 a generic meter what do you expect how much life expectancy you one thing 1128 01:33:04,739 --> 01:33:09,540 one other thing that the the meter and the endpoint are not running off a 1129 01:33:07,500 --> 01:33:14,340 battery what the battery does is it has a capacitor that it trickle cell charges 1130 01:33:11,460 --> 01:33:17,880 over 20 years so when our smartphones and things like that our electronic 1131 01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:21,360 devices die it's from the constant on off and that hitting of the battery 1132 01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:24,659 every time so the capacitor just trickles the battery trickle cell 1133 01:33:22,679 --> 01:33:28,380 charges that capacitor so the capacitor is what takes a hit so that's how these 1134 01:33:26,340 --> 01:33:33,480 batteries could last 20 years okay I understand so we expect 16 to 22 years 1135 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:37,440 depending on the how often we're cycling it and again 1136 01:33:35,460 --> 01:33:42,540 and again pull these radios more than twice a day to cause the battery life to 1137 01:33:39,780 --> 01:33:46,980 go down but standard is twice a day so so what happens when it does die does 1138 01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:51,179 the water shut off is the customer out of water or it just stops reading nope 1139 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:54,960 so two separate units so the water meter will continue to flow of the water the 1140 01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:58,920 radio just pulls that reading every hour and then twice a day you'll send that 1141 01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:02,400 information back to the utility if the battery in the Radio dies the meter will 1142 01:34:00,540 --> 01:34:05,580 still keep rating water so that that data will still be there it'll still be 1143 01:34:04,139 --> 01:34:10,800 there so once you go out and hook up a new radio or restart the radio whatever 1144 01:34:09,179 --> 01:34:13,639 so you're not going to lose any water Revenue okay 1145 01:34:15,420 --> 01:34:20,760 you have a 10 and 10 warranty on this so the first 10 years completely no matter 1146 01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:23,940 what happens it gets switched out the next 10 years is prorated what happens 1147 01:34:22,260 --> 01:34:27,179 though if there's tampering well hold on the one thing that we won't warranty is 1148 01:34:25,199 --> 01:34:31,280 a mower hits it that's not something yeah once you know that got it 1149 01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:31,280 everybody says no 1150 01:34:32,760 --> 01:34:37,800 so what happens if there's tampering what would happen then so if you're 1151 01:34:36,420 --> 01:34:40,440 saying like if a homeowner tampers with it so if a homeowner goes out and 1152 01:34:39,300 --> 01:34:43,980 disconnects it you'll get an alarm saying disconnect so you'll know 1153 01:34:42,300 --> 01:34:47,580 immediately you guys can go out and fix it again there's nothing really the 1154 01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:52,620 homeowner can do that can tamper with it that would cause the battery to decrease 1155 01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:55,020 so yeah really lawn mowers destroying it they'll go out there and cut the wire 1156 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:58,020 thinking they're getting away with something but the nice thing is once you 1157 01:34:56,219 --> 01:35:01,920 hook it up again it catches right back up to the meter so you haven't lost if 1158 01:34:59,760 --> 01:35:06,360 someone decided to to get into one of the boxes and I'm assuming the the radio 1159 01:35:04,199 --> 01:35:10,020 is attached to the lid to the meter yes okay and so if someone decides to remove 1160 01:35:08,219 --> 01:35:13,020 that and they just keep pulling not realizing that maybe there's a wire is 1161 01:35:11,760 --> 01:35:16,920 there a quick disconnect or is this something okay so it's something that'll 1162 01:35:14,820 --> 01:35:20,400 break away it's not going to destroy anything someone can come back and plug 1163 01:35:18,840 --> 01:35:24,960 it in easily so you're you're talking about an antenna you're not talking 1164 01:35:22,440 --> 01:35:29,460 about anything that sticks up above the meter cover no it'll it'll be flush 1165 01:35:26,940 --> 01:35:32,760 flush in the meter cover so yeah it just sticks perfectly flat the only ones that 1166 01:35:31,260 --> 01:35:35,940 won't will be raised a little bit of course the metal Lids they'll be raised 1167 01:35:34,620 --> 01:35:39,719 about a quarter of an inch so it'll still sit on the lid but it'll 1168 01:35:38,159 --> 01:35:44,159 be up about a quarter of an inch if I'm not mistake it's probably what about 1169 01:35:41,639 --> 01:35:47,520 four or five inches in diameter if you drive through Midwest City you'll see 1170 01:35:45,540 --> 01:35:50,280 them sitting on top of theirs yeah it looks like a little mushroom and what we 1171 01:35:48,900 --> 01:35:54,360 do is we drill a hole in your lid and then it sits flush so again they're Ada 1172 01:35:52,620 --> 01:35:57,900 approved so wheelchairs can roll over on there okay yeah so it's not going to 1173 01:35:56,100 --> 01:36:02,159 cause any issues but again sometimes somebody will hear the lawnmower or an 1174 01:35:59,580 --> 01:36:05,540 aerator those are not aerator proof there's the cost of a battery 1175 01:36:11,219 --> 01:36:17,639 what kind of cost is with that with that part again so it's prorated so what we 1176 01:36:15,780 --> 01:36:20,760 do is we take the price of whatever you guys paid for it and let's say it goes 1177 01:36:19,020 --> 01:36:24,960 out in year 11 you would pay 10 percent of that price to get a brand new unit 1178 01:36:22,679 --> 01:36:30,360 and then if it's like year 18 it would be if I forget the exact breakdown but 1179 01:36:27,060 --> 01:36:38,219 yeah 90 or so no yeah so so what is the unit cost uh right it's it's 10 of what 1180 01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:42,060 a unit price that we've been what is a unit price 1181 01:36:39,739 --> 01:36:47,480 it was in there so we're talking like the 5 8 the like the normal the normal 1182 01:36:45,179 --> 01:36:47,480 the 1183 01:36:48,960 --> 01:36:59,340 if you take the 8400 divided by the 3.99 it's 3 452 dollars and some change for a 1184 01:36:56,580 --> 01:37:02,000 unit per year you can almost 1185 01:37:03,300 --> 01:37:07,460 52 instance 452 1186 01:37:08,340 --> 01:37:16,020 26. yeah and I believe in the bid okay did you guys ask for the breakdown yeah 1187 01:37:14,219 --> 01:37:22,080 we have a breakdown yeah so it would be in there okay so so the 5 8 has a unit 1188 01:37:19,500 --> 01:37:26,280 cost of 131 well that's the meat that's the meter you'd have to find a pinpoint 1189 01:37:23,639 --> 01:37:31,920 or transmitter so then the end point is 253 so yeah so 253 so year 11 it would 1190 01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:37,380 be 25.30 and uh 1191 01:37:33,420 --> 01:37:44,400 okay so at year 21 so so 21 you know your obligations end 1192 01:37:41,940 --> 01:37:49,980 and so the battery goes dead there we just have to replace the end point so so 1193 01:37:48,060 --> 01:37:55,560 that part the meter should still be good until we 1194 01:37:53,340 --> 01:37:59,699 decided how long do you think the actual meter part same thing so the meter has a 1195 01:37:57,960 --> 01:38:03,719 battery as well that has a 15-year warranty then it has a field replaceable 1196 01:38:02,100 --> 01:38:08,460 battery that is that is ten dollars so at year 16 17 18 whenever that battery 1197 01:38:05,940 --> 01:38:10,260 goes dead you can get a unit replace the battery and you're up and running for 1198 01:38:09,540 --> 01:38:14,880 another picture and so how about that battery 1199 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:18,000 change at your 15 or so what what's what happens for this 1200 01:38:16,800 --> 01:38:23,580 contract so again if the battery starts dying 1201 01:38:20,760 --> 01:38:28,080 what what it'll be a sense slope unit is warranty meters warranty for 15 years 1202 01:38:25,500 --> 01:38:32,940 let's say it uh let's say it dies at year seven we replace the whole meter if 1203 01:38:30,420 --> 01:38:36,420 it dies after year 15 then you guys either replace the battery which will 1204 01:38:34,679 --> 01:38:41,159 get it up and running again or we can replace the hole 1205 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:44,040 the only thing in the in the only thing in the meter that can 1206 01:38:42,719 --> 01:38:48,719 literally go bad because they're a non-moving part meter is the battery so 1207 01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:51,780 at the year 15 now again if the warranty will be done but if you replace the 1208 01:38:50,280 --> 01:38:57,239 battery you could probably get 15 more years out of it and keep running and the 1209 01:38:53,880 --> 01:39:00,719 battery's 25 bucks so but again the only thing that can die in the meter is going 1210 01:38:58,739 --> 01:39:04,260 to be the battery and that was one of our concerns whenever we first started 1211 01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:09,600 looking at this like eight years ago or so was that 1212 01:39:05,639 --> 01:39:14,580 uh having the whole city die at your 15 or 20. you know and then having a huge 1213 01:39:11,880 --> 01:39:19,500 cost so the cost of replacing the batteries is should be minimal minimal 1214 01:39:17,460 --> 01:39:23,580 but another good thing is as Dan said earlier you know the meters will tell 1215 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:27,239 you uh by looking at them if you get a bad battery 1216 01:39:25,199 --> 01:39:31,560 um and then our endpoints will tell you through the software though so we're 1217 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:34,440 going to warn you before they die yeah so you can run a report every single 1218 01:39:33,239 --> 01:39:38,219 year and say hey show me the battery life of every radio and then you can say 1219 01:39:36,719 --> 01:39:44,880 okay show me the battery life everywhere it was below 90 below 50 below 30 so 1220 01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:48,600 you'll have far in advance warning as to when these are going to start dying on 1221 01:39:46,440 --> 01:39:51,960 you you have a recommendation as to when to replace the battery if we get down to 1222 01:39:50,159 --> 01:39:58,320 should we start replacing them when they hit 10 is there a is there a quicker 1223 01:39:54,719 --> 01:40:00,800 decline once you hit you know 10 they're not cool 1224 01:40:00,840 --> 01:40:07,560 lithium ion batteries brain my brain went blank there for a minute so you 1225 01:40:04,739 --> 01:40:11,699 can't really uh 100 judge lithium ion battery because they're either on or off 1226 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:16,620 so my suggestion is if they get below 40 replace it yep and yeah with the meters 1227 01:40:15,179 --> 01:40:20,820 they'll give you a warning they'll suggest hey battery 1228 01:40:18,300 --> 01:40:27,179 so through year 20 you're going to keep updating the software and that stuff so 1229 01:40:24,420 --> 01:40:31,739 after year 20 what kind of costs should we be looking at 1230 01:40:28,620 --> 01:40:36,000 to get the data maintain your system to maintain the system okay 1231 01:40:33,900 --> 01:40:40,800 um the endpoints won't turn themselves off so they're guaranteed for 20. but 1232 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:44,820 they're also the life of the endpoint so if it makes it to 25 years then you get 1233 01:40:42,780 --> 01:40:50,820 five years worth of quote-unquote free data so it's the life of the endpoint is 1234 01:40:47,880 --> 01:40:55,500 how the data works so if it makes it to 22 then you've got two years worth of 1235 01:40:52,620 --> 01:40:59,699 free data so what I would suggest is you know around year 18 you start looking at 1236 01:40:57,960 --> 01:41:03,300 some kind of a change out Program start looking at the batteries and find out 1237 01:41:01,139 --> 01:41:07,440 like Dan said which ones are below 30 or 40 percent start replacing those 1238 01:41:05,820 --> 01:41:12,120 um so you can kind of do your your change out gradually versus you know 1239 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:16,679 trying to do it all at one time and we're going to have to at after year 1240 01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:19,100 20 we're going to have to change out the end point 1241 01:41:19,320 --> 01:41:26,760 at so but that's a that's a used part that's going to have to right correct 1242 01:41:24,360 --> 01:41:31,560 yeah or a consumable consumer and then and then a battery for the meter 1243 01:41:29,460 --> 01:41:35,460 and hopefully the communicator would keep working or uh or the midpoint is 1244 01:41:34,020 --> 01:41:37,980 the communicator the end point is to communicate great we don't have any 1245 01:41:36,659 --> 01:41:41,880 infrastructure because we're operating on the infrastructure already put up by 1246 01:41:39,780 --> 01:41:44,639 the cellular networks so the beautiful thing is you don't have to go out and 1247 01:41:43,139 --> 01:41:48,420 maintain any of that okay so we've done that because that's a good point which 1248 01:41:46,080 --> 01:41:52,080 for Miss Brown is and the rest of you guys is you know been to a city had a 1249 01:41:50,820 --> 01:41:55,920 problem where they had to go put the whole infrastructure in and then it 1250 01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:59,119 didn't quite reach everybody so I mean this is beautiful on this yeah 1251 01:42:03,199 --> 01:42:11,100 these Ami systems and a metering system s most utilities replace them every 10 1252 01:42:08,040 --> 01:42:14,820 to 15 years just full 3.7 million every 10 to 15 years but that's why I 1253 01:42:13,440 --> 01:42:18,960 partnered with set and Center because they have the longest warranties and 1254 01:42:17,219 --> 01:42:23,460 kind of the best technology so we can stretch those out to 15 to 25 years 1255 01:42:21,420 --> 01:42:28,380 versus every 10 years you're spending three or four million dollars so let's 1256 01:42:26,219 --> 01:42:32,280 talk about the billing procedures for some reason we have trouble keeping our 1257 01:42:30,119 --> 01:42:34,560 billing cycle in sync with the meter reading 1258 01:42:33,960 --> 01:42:37,679 [Music] um 1259 01:42:35,280 --> 01:42:41,760 we tend to slip behind is this going to improve our billing procedures will we 1260 01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:48,360 be able to get the billing caught back up and out on time Britney is shaking 1261 01:42:45,060 --> 01:42:51,000 her head yes yes yes so what what happens is we're going to be playing 1262 01:42:49,679 --> 01:42:53,600 ketchup you know 1263 01:42:54,980 --> 01:43:00,600 okay so what happens is the radio is going to read the meter every hour twice 1264 01:42:59,699 --> 01:43:04,800 a day it's going to send the information back so what billing will do is whenever 1265 01:43:03,480 --> 01:43:08,100 it's time to Bill a certain route there's just a button they push that 1266 01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:13,020 says export to billing and it takes it take current read that the system has 1267 01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:16,260 and drops it in the building let me ask you a question right now we send the 1268 01:43:14,639 --> 01:43:19,139 billing out to a third party is that correct 1269 01:43:17,159 --> 01:43:23,360 so will this eliminate the need for the third party will this be able to do the 1270 01:43:21,060 --> 01:43:23,360 billing 1271 01:43:30,060 --> 01:43:33,060 purposes 1272 01:44:04,020 --> 01:44:07,460 becomes instantaneous 1273 01:44:11,520 --> 01:44:20,840 good so we'll be we'll get caught up all right okay so on the data so 1274 01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:29,280 how does it so it's it is free to to get it from 1275 01:44:26,100 --> 01:44:32,100 you know the seller data coming in and then actually putting it into that 1276 01:44:30,719 --> 01:44:37,080 software so after year 20 you know to put it into 1277 01:44:34,619 --> 01:44:41,340 the software is that just part of the in the end point 1278 01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:44,940 is gets it into that gets it into the software or is there somebody who you 1279 01:44:43,500 --> 01:44:48,480 know is there some company that you know is going to charge us you know a 1280 01:44:46,739 --> 01:44:51,540 percentage so it'll stay it'll stay with us and Bruce correct me if yeah they 1281 01:44:50,159 --> 01:44:55,920 answered that scene you could have two years of free debt if you went 22 years 1282 01:44:53,580 --> 01:45:00,060 then you get the last two years three so what happens so the dealer goes to the 1283 01:44:57,360 --> 01:45:04,619 cell unit and then ATT or us other Whoever has it sends it to Amazon web 1284 01:45:01,980 --> 01:45:08,580 services Amazon web services sends it to set and then set says oh this this data 1285 01:45:07,139 --> 01:45:12,179 belongs to Del City and it goes into the software even after the 20 years we're 1286 01:45:10,739 --> 01:45:16,739 still going to do that process because we've paid for that until the end of the 1287 01:45:13,860 --> 01:45:19,860 life of the radio so once the Radio dies then we say okay do you guys want to 1288 01:45:18,239 --> 01:45:22,619 re-up and start over again with another 20 or do you want to do you know 1289 01:45:21,300 --> 01:45:26,880 something like that but the whole process of reader reading the meter to 1290 01:45:25,380 --> 01:45:31,619 the radio to Cellular to software to your software is all 1291 01:45:28,440 --> 01:45:37,139 so that that leads to a so the data is connected to the each 1292 01:45:34,139 --> 01:45:42,780 radio or each endpoint right so say at five years we have a radio go out 1293 01:45:40,139 --> 01:45:46,500 do we now have we've we've used up five years of that data do we just have 15 1294 01:45:44,340 --> 01:45:49,980 years of data or is that is the date you get you get what I'm 1295 01:45:48,179 --> 01:45:53,880 saying so does it restart if it's connected to that radio sort of like I 1296 01:45:51,900 --> 01:45:58,619 got my SIM card right and my it's connected to that device right 1297 01:45:56,460 --> 01:46:02,820 so it would be the 15 years yeah so if it dies in year five let's say let's say 1298 01:46:00,900 --> 01:46:06,480 it just goes out you've already paid for the 20 years of data so what we do is we 1299 01:46:04,679 --> 01:46:09,780 give you a new radio that has 15 years gotcha okay so you're typically with 1300 01:46:08,040 --> 01:46:15,119 that one you'd probably easily get to 25 yes okay now you have that accurate 1301 01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:19,199 perfect and paying for that data like I said 25 or 28 years if you happen to 1302 01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:22,739 make it there you'd still have it going yeah we don't come back and say well you 1303 01:46:20,760 --> 01:46:29,900 hit your 20 and that's cool okay time for the yeah we're rolling along we just 1304 01:46:24,900 --> 01:46:29,900 keep rolling along yep exactly very good 1305 01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:39,960 shut off tomorrow right okay so the next question is is if you guys go you know 1306 01:46:37,380 --> 01:46:43,860 if you guys go out of business or whatever else is this simple enough 1307 01:46:42,060 --> 01:46:49,080 technology to where somebody else would hopefully buy buy you guys up and be 1308 01:46:45,900 --> 01:46:52,500 able to take over yes yes very much so in fact a lot of the bigger Ami 1309 01:46:50,699 --> 01:46:56,820 companies are now starting to jump into cellular uh set was one of the first 1310 01:46:54,480 --> 01:47:00,179 companies to do it they're owned by a large private Equity Firm and a publicly 1311 01:46:58,440 --> 01:47:03,780 traded company so if anything were to get towards bankruptcy there would be 1312 01:47:02,520 --> 01:47:07,980 other multiple companies that would happen to just eat them up and 1313 01:47:06,179 --> 01:47:11,820 in fact I've been with two companies that that has happened to over the past 1314 01:47:09,300 --> 01:47:14,880 20 years where Amco being one of them data magic being a second one where they 1315 01:47:13,380 --> 01:47:18,420 just could not function they could not work and and bigger companies came in 1316 01:47:17,159 --> 01:47:22,679 scooped them up and maintained their customers 1317 01:47:20,159 --> 01:47:26,100 and like one other thing is you know we are a debt-free company so we're not 1318 01:47:24,360 --> 01:47:30,800 looking at any of that you know backed by Cresco net who is about about three 1319 01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:34,920 billion dollars a year in sales as earlier you guys had Oklahoma Natural 1320 01:47:33,060 --> 01:47:39,420 Gas in here you know we do water right now in about two months we'll have gas 1321 01:47:37,260 --> 01:47:43,320 out on the market so we'll do gas as well and then about a year from now 1322 01:47:41,040 --> 01:47:47,280 we'll do electric as well so we're building and growing towards the future 1323 01:47:44,639 --> 01:47:52,800 there's no I don't see any chance of us going anywhere I mean they just dropped 1324 01:47:49,199 --> 01:47:57,840 two million dollars into gas r d and we're probably going to be 1325 01:47:55,380 --> 01:48:04,139 double that into electric r d awesome so when you all do start the uh 1326 01:48:02,580 --> 01:48:07,619 conversion or whatever we're going to call this whenever the project starts 1327 01:48:05,699 --> 01:48:12,480 the biggest thing that I have for this is we need to make sure anyone that you 1328 01:48:09,719 --> 01:48:17,280 have out there is easily visible and easily identifiable So shirts vests 1329 01:48:15,900 --> 01:48:20,820 something that lets people know who they are we've had companies that come in the 1330 01:48:19,320 --> 01:48:24,780 past that literally folks are in shorts and t-shirts out there working with no 1331 01:48:22,860 --> 01:48:28,679 visible anything please make sure that's taken care of because we will stop we 1332 01:48:26,580 --> 01:48:31,800 will ask questions yeah and we're going to have a kickoff meeting where we want 1333 01:48:30,239 --> 01:48:35,880 to address all of that what do you require of our installers where we kick 1334 01:48:34,380 --> 01:48:39,719 off you know Building Company everything where we go through step by step but yes 1335 01:48:37,920 --> 01:48:43,139 our installers will have vests we'll have badges all of them will have 1336 01:48:41,699 --> 01:48:47,280 business cards with phone numbers to contact anybody at the city they want or 1337 01:48:45,060 --> 01:48:50,820 anybody you know contact me whoever so if a homeowner does have questions we 1338 01:48:49,020 --> 01:48:53,820 want the installers to be prepared to answer any questions and give them the 1339 01:48:52,679 --> 01:48:58,080 right people to reach out to you and this is sort of the perfect time to stop 1340 01:48:55,380 --> 01:49:01,679 to talk about the communication plan where were you headed what kind of down 1341 01:48:59,880 --> 01:49:06,119 time are you talking about like say you come to Pam's house and you start to 1342 01:49:04,380 --> 01:49:10,920 change out her meter what's the down time she's going to be out of water for 1343 01:49:07,739 --> 01:49:14,699 minutes 30 minutes three minutes three minutes you can change that out in three 1344 01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:18,900 minutes two nuts you unscrew pull the meter out you assume that they're not 1345 01:49:16,560 --> 01:49:23,880 frozen in rusted that is true I assume they're not frozen but these guys yeah 1346 01:49:22,139 --> 01:49:27,000 they're average in you know a couple hundred meters a day in some of the 1347 01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:32,520 smaller communities that we've already done so we're not worried about that but 1348 01:49:29,159 --> 01:49:36,000 30 minutes is probably top end okay but three to five is pretty normal pretty 1349 01:49:34,500 --> 01:49:40,260 normal and what they do is when they open up the pit if that meter is running 1350 01:49:38,940 --> 01:49:44,400 stop what they're doing and they go knock on the door very good we're here 1351 01:49:43,139 --> 01:49:47,400 to change your meter out you might be out of water for a few minutes do you 1352 01:49:45,840 --> 01:49:50,820 mind okay because the person might be in the shower yeah they don't just shut it 1353 01:49:48,960 --> 01:49:53,540 off exactly so if it's running they'll stop they'll go do the neighbor 1354 01:49:55,920 --> 01:50:01,800 Hood okay all right I actually have a test meter at my house already I had no 1355 01:49:59,940 --> 01:50:06,679 idea I even had a test mirror at my house until Brittany called me and she 1356 01:50:05,699 --> 01:50:11,580 said she said how in the world did you go 1357 01:50:09,060 --> 01:50:15,800 through 27 000 gallons and I was like excuse me 1358 01:50:13,080 --> 01:50:15,800 so 1359 01:50:16,080 --> 01:50:19,639 I hope so yeah 1360 01:50:24,960 --> 01:50:29,280 a really fast amount of time I have people all the time tell me that 1361 01:50:27,840 --> 01:50:33,900 physically isn't possible and you're going to do search on AWA and show them 1362 01:50:31,500 --> 01:50:36,960 how much water and it's unbelievable how much water can go through that or even 1363 01:50:35,040 --> 01:50:39,840 just a leaky toilet that people don't hear shut off you know the beautiful 1364 01:50:38,460 --> 01:50:45,239 thing about the system is now we're going to be able to show them that data 1365 01:50:41,880 --> 01:50:50,100 at your fingers yeah at 10 pm you you started flowing such and such a rate yes 1366 01:50:47,460 --> 01:50:55,139 sir that's very good and and in regards to communication so every homeowner gets 1367 01:50:52,560 --> 01:50:58,139 their own consumer engagement login so the software that you see on every 1368 01:50:56,820 --> 01:51:02,580 homeowner account they'll be able to log in and see that themselves okay so if 1369 01:51:00,239 --> 01:51:06,540 they have 24 hours worth of usage they will get a leak alarm and then they can 1370 01:51:04,260 --> 01:51:11,219 set that up to tax them or email them that they have a leak so the idea behind 1371 01:51:08,880 --> 01:51:15,239 that is uh the homeowner will actually fix their own problem before they call 1372 01:51:13,560 --> 01:51:19,560 you guys because they'll be able to see all that information and welcome to a 1373 01:51:17,400 --> 01:51:23,040 third party website no it's ours it's our software is that an extra a 1374 01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:28,080 beautiful thing it's not third party it's built into our software so the data 1375 01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:32,580 is all live and and connected so when your customer service team logs in if it 1376 01:51:30,600 --> 01:51:36,420 was third party the data would lag it might be a 24 hour lag so they won't see 1377 01:51:34,739 --> 01:51:39,000 the same thing the customer service people we're gonna see the same exact 1378 01:51:37,679 --> 01:51:43,860 data that the people at home are seeing awesome really are you asking for an 1379 01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:50,100 extra fee from customers for that kind of communication will there be any extra 1380 01:51:46,560 --> 01:51:55,800 fees for customers for any of those you're welcome to charge the homeowner 1381 01:51:51,960 --> 01:51:59,820 fee but we don't charge you nope all right so let's let's transition into 1382 01:51:58,139 --> 01:52:04,260 talking to Brittany here for a second about communication because that's Pro 1383 01:52:01,860 --> 01:52:08,760 that's a good segue right there you shut them down right there we're not charging 1384 01:52:06,300 --> 01:52:13,260 fees we're not charging anything extra on top of so there is a plan we we had 1385 01:52:11,940 --> 01:52:17,520 talked about we've been talking about these meters for a couple of years now 1386 01:52:15,119 --> 01:52:22,739 and it's on we're right on top of it you're going to be Community 1387 01:52:18,780 --> 01:52:29,520 communicating with the public tell them yes so where we're there again we are 1388 01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:36,199 and so but this is going to be great and I think if we you know I I still stand 1389 01:52:32,760 --> 01:52:36,199 by it where where messed up 1390 01:52:38,460 --> 01:52:46,920 no if right if people understand what's happening we can get them excited about 1391 01:52:43,739 --> 01:52:53,520 it so Thursday morning at nine um we have a meeting scheduled with me 1392 01:52:50,280 --> 01:52:56,760 and JD and Melissa Hatfield Craig Bruce are you coming okay so I'll have them 1393 01:52:55,260 --> 01:53:02,580 too um Bruce has been phenomenal through 1394 01:52:59,820 --> 01:53:06,179 this whole process he is getting me with their marketing person that they've used 1395 01:53:04,739 --> 01:53:10,520 when they've rolled out into other cities so that we don't have to recreate 1396 01:53:08,280 --> 01:53:14,760 the wheel we can kind of use communication and information that's 1397 01:53:12,780 --> 01:53:20,219 already been used in other cities that they know works and then you know we'll 1398 01:53:17,639 --> 01:53:26,820 tailor that to our people as well we're gonna hone in on timelines and you know 1399 01:53:24,060 --> 01:53:31,679 what to expect not to be Doom and Gloom but this is not going to be pretty at 1400 01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:36,239 first it's not because the sad reality is just like Craig said we have a lot of 1401 01:53:33,840 --> 01:53:40,380 meters out there that are very old and what a lot of people don't understand is 1402 01:53:37,980 --> 01:53:45,960 that the whole older the meter gets it slows down it doesn't speed up it will 1403 01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:49,800 slow down and quit reading accurately so once we start dropping meters in that 1404 01:53:47,880 --> 01:53:54,000 are reading a hundred percent a lot of people are going to go I have a leak 1405 01:53:51,659 --> 01:53:58,199 there's no way I actually use this water well you've been using that water you 1406 01:53:56,699 --> 01:54:02,340 just haven't been paying for it the whole time so 1407 01:54:00,179 --> 01:54:08,280 of course I will be out there on the front line I will help all of our 1408 01:54:04,440 --> 01:54:12,900 residents as much as I possibly can we are going to educate we're going to 1409 01:54:10,080 --> 01:54:16,380 inform we are going to be out there this time we are not going to do it like we 1410 01:54:15,060 --> 01:54:22,500 did it last time we're going to get it right this time what can the council do 1411 01:54:18,960 --> 01:54:29,880 to help you with that and are there any Town Halls scheduled for those kind of 1412 01:54:26,719 --> 01:54:33,960 discussions so that is something that we will talk about Thursday I I am not 1413 01:54:32,280 --> 01:54:37,860 opposed there's no such thing as too much communication on something like 1414 01:54:35,460 --> 01:54:41,040 this and they're going to start moving pretty quick it's my understanding like 1415 01:54:39,719 --> 01:54:45,239 this isn't going to be we're going to sign a contract and maybe sometime next 1416 01:54:42,900 --> 01:54:49,619 year this is going to start we're going to be working on a very limited window 1417 01:54:47,820 --> 01:54:55,260 and so we're going to have to be very specific and very conscious about how we 1418 01:54:52,820 --> 01:54:59,639 communicate to the community we're going to roll it out in Billing Cycles it's 1419 01:54:57,000 --> 01:55:05,580 not going to be you know everything is going to be on purpose so once we get 1420 01:55:03,300 --> 01:55:09,179 done with this meeting Thursday we're not going to leave the room until we 1421 01:55:07,260 --> 01:55:14,460 have a good plan of attack that we are all comfortable with once we have that 1422 01:55:12,060 --> 01:55:18,000 we will be communicating with all of you because this is going to be a group 1423 01:55:15,780 --> 01:55:22,380 effort I can't do this by myself JD can't do it but it's it's going to take 1424 01:55:19,980 --> 01:55:27,420 a village on this put us on your calendar I'm so excited put us on your 1425 01:55:24,659 --> 01:55:31,860 calendar now for danwa or Delaware neighborhood watch assist meetings 1426 01:55:29,520 --> 01:55:36,119 please come Ron make sure you get their info so we can go ahead and tell all of 1427 01:55:34,260 --> 01:55:41,100 ward 3 about it so we're talking about roll out we're talking like after the 1428 01:55:38,460 --> 01:55:47,060 parade we're talking probably what three months four months like how 1429 01:55:44,580 --> 01:55:52,199 no let's not go that fast I'm just kidding give me a little bit of 1430 01:55:49,380 --> 01:55:55,820 time what are we looking out for rolling this out what's the timeline on this 1431 01:55:55,860 --> 01:55:58,460 yesterday 1432 01:56:02,960 --> 01:56:09,840 yeah 90 days to start and then we have six months to complete right yeah so 1433 01:56:08,340 --> 01:56:14,600 whatever Dell City goes faster or slow as you guys 1434 01:56:11,400 --> 01:56:14,600 absolutely okay 1435 01:56:21,000 --> 01:56:25,380 uh at meters that we're going to find all 1436 01:56:24,239 --> 01:56:29,219 sorts of things I'll just bring to be honest doing this for 12 years 1437 01:56:26,580 --> 01:56:31,619 I've probably sold 40 Ami jobs we're going to find meters that probably have 1438 01:56:30,719 --> 01:56:36,000 never been built we're gonna absolutely all the only time 1439 01:56:33,900 --> 01:56:41,699 that you touch every so everything that has not happened or 1440 01:56:38,820 --> 01:56:44,940 has been a mistake in the past so again we're going to go as fast or as 1441 01:56:43,800 --> 01:56:49,260 slow as you guys but the main thing is we want to get 1442 01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:53,580 and we want to make sure that the billing 1443 01:56:51,420 --> 01:56:57,920 good as it can be but again we're going to have hurdles because we're going to 1444 01:56:55,380 --> 01:56:57,920 uncover things 1445 01:56:59,100 --> 01:57:07,980 so so you just you know this is the one time that we're gonna touch all of our 1446 01:57:03,420 --> 01:57:12,480 meters so uh Craig and Mike and everyone I 1447 01:57:09,119 --> 01:57:17,159 we should ensure that the line going in to the meter and the line coming out of 1448 01:57:14,219 --> 01:57:22,139 meter this is ideal for us to not just make a meter fit and make a meter work 1449 01:57:19,440 --> 01:57:26,580 if there's a problem we see some extra wear something like that this is the 1450 01:57:23,880 --> 01:57:31,040 time to to fix those things and will you guys communicate that with us there's 1451 01:57:28,560 --> 01:57:31,040 you know 1452 01:57:32,940 --> 01:57:37,980 you're allowed to take 20 pictures at every location that gets stored back 1453 01:57:36,480 --> 01:57:41,400 into the software so that's where we'll sit with you guys to say hey what 20 1454 01:57:39,480 --> 01:57:45,960 pictures or 10 or five you want our installers to take made it water line in 1455 01:57:43,560 --> 01:57:50,280 water line out old meter new meter picture of the house I didn't step on 1456 01:57:47,760 --> 01:57:53,219 Mrs Smith's rose garden and they're out and all of that comes back and it's 1457 01:57:51,659 --> 01:57:57,980 stored in the system correct so you guys let us know because there's 1458 01:57:55,260 --> 01:57:57,980 a lot of lead pipe 1459 01:57:59,460 --> 01:58:06,480 pipeline so that's why we designed this system now do we have any lead pipes 1460 01:58:04,980 --> 01:58:09,080 no thank you 1461 01:58:09,780 --> 01:58:15,540 Thursday yep with Dale City's logo something that you can use as a mailer 1462 01:58:14,280 --> 01:58:20,780 to start mailing your custom something you can put on your website I mean again 1463 01:58:17,520 --> 01:58:20,780 like she said earlier there's no such 1464 01:58:24,300 --> 01:58:29,940 thing yeah all right set has a list of frequently asked questions for the 1465 01:58:28,199 --> 01:58:33,179 homeowners you know a lot of the questions are going to be with my bill 1466 01:58:31,080 --> 01:58:36,119 go up we can cut some of the meat or we can do a town 1467 01:58:34,560 --> 01:58:38,580 hall and explain to everybody here's how it happens the other one that's going to 1468 01:58:37,679 --> 01:58:41,820 surprise you you're going to get a question will these give me cancer 1469 01:58:40,320 --> 01:58:45,900 instructions we've done the studies we've done the research in 1470 01:58:44,340 --> 01:58:49,920 yourself that will be a question 1471 01:58:47,520 --> 01:58:54,480 so the one of the other questions is this is tied to Federal funding and so 1472 01:58:52,619 --> 01:58:59,040 have you done other cities with this and completed have you done others and 1473 01:58:57,060 --> 01:59:03,420 completed it so that way you dotted all the I's and T's and whatever else we 1474 01:59:00,659 --> 01:59:05,719 might need to close out our project yeah so we 1475 01:59:06,060 --> 01:59:12,380 we uh but with but again just federally funded to where to where 1476 01:59:12,980 --> 01:59:18,719 we have something they don't always tell us that so I don't know 1477 01:59:16,460 --> 01:59:22,139 I could answer that for you guys well they've already been vetted by my 1478 01:59:19,980 --> 01:59:26,219 federal system before we even got to the awards section 1479 01:59:23,820 --> 01:59:29,099 um yeah we've added you so you don't owe the IRS money that's the number one 1480 01:59:28,080 --> 01:59:33,420 right right but the other part is they have to 1481 01:59:31,380 --> 01:59:37,320 hire the right people and I'm sure if they have to sign that I mean are they 1482 01:59:35,219 --> 01:59:41,219 going to sign anything else besides what the contract they submitted or do they 1483 01:59:39,000 --> 01:59:45,480 have other requirements and just to make sure and and also a time period because 1484 01:59:43,320 --> 01:59:49,739 we're running up to time periods and running out of time on some projects 1485 01:59:47,580 --> 01:59:53,159 right this one is this one is a different system and no they meet all 1486 01:59:51,719 --> 01:59:56,460 the criteria they've checked all the boxes and they'll be done within well 1487 01:59:55,260 --> 01:59:59,880 within the time frame of this requirement 1488 01:59:57,599 --> 02:00:03,540 all right do we have a plan to where we're going to start with the meters are 1489 02:00:01,800 --> 02:00:07,099 we going to do one word at a time are we going to start north of the city or 1490 02:00:04,800 --> 02:00:07,099 south 1491 02:00:08,940 --> 02:00:14,280 well that's that's what we're talking about that way 1492 02:00:12,780 --> 02:00:18,780 um you don't the last thing we want is for half of a 1493 02:00:16,440 --> 02:00:22,500 cycle to be billed on the new meters and have to be built on the old meter so 1494 02:00:20,460 --> 02:00:25,980 we'll take it a cycle at a time so they'll go in and read the meter and 1495 02:00:24,599 --> 02:00:31,020 then your crew will come along and change it yeah and then the about it 1496 02:00:28,500 --> 02:00:33,920 we'll also take a picture of picture with the readings 1497 02:00:34,380 --> 02:00:38,060 these guys can go back in look at them 1498 02:00:39,659 --> 02:00:44,219 yeah reports that we can run meter change out 1499 02:00:42,599 --> 02:00:46,679 ports so we'll tell you what meters were changed out that week 1500 02:00:45,540 --> 02:00:49,400 that week so you'll have all that data very good 1501 02:00:53,159 --> 02:00:59,340 old meter reading report new meter reading so it does the old meter meter 1502 02:00:57,840 --> 02:01:04,320 out new meter new meter it gives you that calculation so you can still yeah 1503 02:01:01,139 --> 02:01:08,219 you can compensate yeah you compensate I get it right and councilman Yandy I just 1504 02:01:06,360 --> 02:01:13,679 want to go back I don't want anyone to think that we are 1505 02:01:10,800 --> 02:01:18,119 have tried to do this back door we have been talking about this project for a 1506 02:01:15,960 --> 02:01:23,520 long time I just want to make it very clear that we have not rolled this out 1507 02:01:21,840 --> 02:01:29,040 to the residents because we've not known anything and the 1508 02:01:26,460 --> 02:01:31,920 last thing that I wanted was to cause mass chaos hey we're going to change 1509 02:01:30,840 --> 02:01:35,940 your meter they're going to be smart they're going to read 100 your bill 1510 02:01:33,360 --> 02:01:41,820 might go up but I don't know when I don't know who you know so I I just want 1511 02:01:39,179 --> 02:01:46,199 to be clear that we have been talking about it but there is a reason that we 1512 02:01:43,980 --> 02:01:51,179 did not I didn't want to scare everyone especially we're we're still licking 1513 02:01:48,900 --> 02:01:55,320 wounds from billing calibration so the the bottom line here is all we're going 1514 02:01:53,280 --> 02:01:59,340 to be charging is for the water that they use absolutely there's no added 1515 02:01:57,360 --> 02:02:05,659 premium there's no added value there it's simply what they're using a lot of 1516 02:02:02,099 --> 02:02:10,500 people have been skating by yep a more accurate bill 1517 02:02:08,040 --> 02:02:13,260 so if people see their bills go up it's not because the city's building them 1518 02:02:11,699 --> 02:02:20,480 anymore they're billing them more accurately right right okay very good 1519 02:02:17,880 --> 02:02:20,480 thank you 1520 02:02:32,580 --> 02:02:38,219 well what we've seen some cities do and this is up to you guys not that I want 1521 02:02:36,239 --> 02:02:42,239 to add any work but you can pull several meters out from around town and then 1522 02:02:39,900 --> 02:02:46,619 have them tested and if they test at 60 or 80 percent that you can kind of 1523 02:02:45,119 --> 02:02:51,980 average and say hey our bills are going to go up 40 they're going to go up 20 1524 02:02:48,060 --> 02:02:51,980 but there's no specific 1525 02:03:11,460 --> 02:03:17,599 don't know until they pull the old meter yeah 1526 02:03:14,639 --> 02:03:17,599 Ron

customer portal to your 1529 02:03:35,940 --> 02:03:41,760 citizens and I would give it six months so that data can build up in there and 1530 02:03:40,380 --> 02:03:45,360 that it's something to see that also gives your customer service team time to 1531 02:03:43,860 --> 02:03:47,760 get prepared for those questions okay because we don't want to flood them with 1532 02:03:46,560 --> 02:03:49,980

get 1545 02:04:52,500 --> 02:04:59,940 within a certain guideline right or figure out you know where all the water 1546 02:04:57,480 --> 02:05:03,000 is going but we're not we're not going to go in

for discussion and before we start in I would like to jump 1613 02:10:29,280 --> 02:10:36,719 out there with a project city manager that we discussed at the last meeting 1614 02:10:34,440 --> 02:10:42,060 and we're talking about the entry to Del City the entry sign on Sooner Road 1615 02:10:39,659 --> 02:10:47,099 at Reno and that is a project that is sorely 1616 02:10:44,639 --> 02:10:51,659 lacking that is an eyesore coming into the city we had some great ideas brought 1617 02:10:49,980 --> 02:10:55,320 To Us by the beautification committee the last council meeting and I would 1618 02:10:53,639 --> 02:11:01,199 like to put that as the number one project get the entry to Del City up to 1619 02:10:59,219 --> 02:11:05,520 standard I agree let me go into a quick detail on 1620 02:11:03,960 --> 02:11:08,940 how this is going to work I want to make sure you all know this is part of the 1621 02:11:06,840 --> 02:11:12,719 budgeting process for Melissa and myself a couple of department heads have stayed 1622 02:11:11,280 --> 02:11:18,480 because they've got special projects they want us what a shock it's the chief 1623 02:11:15,739 --> 02:11:22,619 no what I want you all to know is if we can get these on the radar now the goal 1624 02:11:21,119 --> 02:11:26,340 of course is to find the money within the city if we have it already within 1625 02:11:24,179 --> 02:11:31,080 our means to be able to perform these if not this is the opportunity to say we're 1626 02:11:28,139 --> 02:11:34,980 going out for grant funding specialty funding one-time funding to do any of 1627 02:11:33,060 --> 02:11:38,460 these things for example the entry to Del City beautification committee 1628 02:11:36,719 --> 02:11:41,460 project could be completed with neighborhood enhancement according to 1629 02:11:39,900 --> 02:11:46,500 the rules and requirements of the restricted fund but if we can get 1630 02:11:43,800 --> 02:11:51,420 Oklahoma beautiful parks and tourism someone else to give us that funding 1631 02:11:48,480 --> 02:11:55,440 even better so at this point even giving us ideas that we can have down I will 1632 02:11:53,760 --> 02:11:59,159 try to build in what's in the budget and I make the I make the example you all 1633 02:11:57,420 --> 02:12:02,880 have five million dollars in requests and we have fifty thousand dollars to 1634 02:12:00,840 --> 02:12:06,540 spend but if we don't have those things out now then we can't do that when the 1635 02:12:05,040 --> 02:12:10,920 Auditors come back and they ask us questions why did you all perform for 1636 02:12:09,000 --> 02:12:14,760 example we did do the if we're going to do the 1637 02:12:12,300 --> 02:12:18,300 bathroom project here in this next fiscal year why was it not budgeted why 1638 02:12:16,679 --> 02:12:22,679 did it have to be moved money moved around for it why was it not prepped for 1639 02:12:20,580 --> 02:12:26,580 this is an example of how we're prepping for it now so this is better budgeting 1640 02:12:24,360 --> 02:12:30,239 process and it lets me know in this new role exactly what we're looking for I 1641 02:12:28,679 --> 02:12:34,199 know I have many of your requests from my previous role but now instead of it 1642 02:12:32,099 --> 02:12:39,860 being economic focused now it's all encompassing okay so let's take this in 1643 02:12:38,580 --> 02:12:45,420 two parts we can talk about infrastructure 1644 02:12:43,020 --> 02:12:50,699 and we can talk about beautification and and parks and kind of keep keep focused 1645 02:12:48,599 --> 02:12:54,780 and then we'll find some place for PD and amongst all that stuff do we want to 1646 02:12:52,619 --> 02:12:57,719 we're going to call you recreate oh beautification yeah you need you need 1647 02:12:56,520 --> 02:13:02,520 some beautification at the police department should we take this by Ward 1648 02:12:59,760 --> 02:13:06,000 potentially as well we could and that would not be a bad starting point we 1649 02:13:04,260 --> 02:13:09,840 could start with Ward one and unless everybody talk about their favorite 1650 02:13:07,440 --> 02:13:13,739 project for for Ward one what would you like to see 1651 02:13:12,000 --> 02:13:16,619 you were talking earlier about the sidewalks on sunny lane in the 1652 02:13:15,179 --> 02:13:20,940 guardrails and I think that's a worthy project but is there something in Ward 1653 02:13:18,900 --> 02:13:23,060 one that you would specifically like to see 1654 02:13:23,639 --> 02:13:31,560 right now I think it's more about the other words in those things 1655 02:13:28,679 --> 02:13:35,639 um okay but so one of the things I just request for this whole part is we need 1656 02:13:33,599 --> 02:13:37,679 to get out the things that he needs you know that we can try to get into the 1657 02:13:36,840 --> 02:13:41,460 budget but I don't think that you know this 1658 02:13:39,480 --> 02:13:46,380 should be thought of as the one time to get everything in so so so we got plenty 1659 02:13:44,460 --> 02:13:50,760 so you know I think we should be really just thinking of the most important 1660 02:13:47,880 --> 02:13:53,340 things to get done tonight and maybe we have another one next time so that's 1661 02:13:51,960 --> 02:13:58,619 what I'm saying this is there's plenty of things like the entrances to uh to 1662 02:13:55,739 --> 02:14:02,520 all of our streets have you know places where the water lines are cut out and we 1663 02:14:00,360 --> 02:14:10,079 need to fix those speed bumps and this but I think that uh for right now as is 1664 02:14:05,940 --> 02:14:16,619 that word one should be relatively okay or two 1665 02:14:12,900 --> 02:14:19,980 please say sidewalks on sunny lane sidewalks on sunny lane that's all 1666 02:14:18,540 --> 02:14:23,780 you're getting um 1667 02:14:20,820 --> 02:14:27,780 all of my projects that I have down here are not World War II 1668 02:14:26,340 --> 02:14:32,400 they're for things that we have been working on that have been in the mix 1669 02:14:29,880 --> 02:14:37,320 since I have been on Council let's hear your top my top one is the restroom for 1670 02:14:35,400 --> 02:14:42,780 City Hall it's been on here since day one that I got yes yes 1671 02:14:40,380 --> 02:14:46,560 actually we have already voted on that in a previous council meeting we we 1672 02:14:44,820 --> 02:14:50,639 voted to move forward with that we just are waiting on the bid process is that 1673 02:14:48,540 --> 02:14:56,300 correct correct I think let's go ahead and put that let's put that down the 1674 02:14:52,440 --> 02:15:01,980 restroom we we approve the restroom modification remodel on the ground floor 1675 02:14:59,699 --> 02:15:06,540 floor at City Hall I think that was the one that we had Plus 1676 02:15:04,260 --> 02:15:12,360 the restrooms at the community center the um the senior center and the food 1677 02:15:09,960 --> 02:15:16,380 prep area and the tile floor for the senior center those were all on the 1678 02:15:14,460 --> 02:15:19,920 agenda and were approved by the council previously I think we had approved 1679 02:15:18,239 --> 02:15:24,000 looking at the drawings because we were updating we made some updates to the 1680 02:15:21,840 --> 02:15:28,260 restrooms where we wanted a water a water closet is that what 1681 02:15:26,699 --> 02:15:34,139 we're calling it two two new water closets I believe so yeah we we did 1682 02:15:30,659 --> 02:15:38,639 discuss that so my concern is that the restrooms at City Hall we have voted on 1683 02:15:36,119 --> 02:15:44,040 it before it's been four or five years ago but I just want I don't want it to 1684 02:15:40,920 --> 02:15:47,340 get lost I want it completed we're just talking about budget items that's 1685 02:15:45,840 --> 02:15:50,699 something that has already been approved but we want to make that a high priority 1686 02:15:49,199 --> 02:15:54,420 in the budget that's where we're going with it and whenever you come in you see 1687 02:15:52,980 --> 02:15:58,260 the budget coming up in the next few weeks you can ask myself and Melissa 1688 02:15:56,280 --> 02:16:02,520 where is the money for blank and we say it is right here in section seven 1689 02:16:00,480 --> 02:16:06,360 whatever you know she can read the budget he's if I can but you get it 1690 02:16:04,020 --> 02:16:10,320 we're we're currently talking about things that are not infrastructure 1691 02:16:08,940 --> 02:16:14,340 so yeah so um 1692 02:16:12,079 --> 02:16:19,020 we've talked about the bathrooms in the senior center 1693 02:16:15,980 --> 02:16:25,079 I'd like to talk about lighting at Eagle Lake I understand the trail is already 1694 02:16:22,560 --> 02:16:28,800 in process is that correct we already have the funding 1695 02:16:26,579 --> 02:16:34,260 are we moving forward with the trail at Eagle Lake so put on the budget lighting 1696 02:16:31,980 --> 02:16:37,200 for the trail at Eagle Lake we need to have that well lit if we're going to 1697 02:16:35,580 --> 02:16:41,160 expect citizens to walk out there and feel safe so lighting I think is a high 1698 02:16:39,899 --> 02:16:45,439 project for the new trail that we're putting in 1699 02:16:43,200 --> 02:16:50,099 at Eagle Lake because it bothers the fish 1700 02:16:48,240 --> 02:16:54,479 shut up and however that is a question I think that 1701 02:16:52,380 --> 02:16:59,460 you know that part of the bicycle trail you know the the South half going over 1702 02:16:56,760 --> 02:17:04,320 to that spot should be well lit the question is is whether or not we should 1703 02:17:01,200 --> 02:17:09,059 have light pollution for the other half you know it's so so 1704 02:17:06,840 --> 02:17:13,080 the you know the you know the light blue you know is this it's would be one of 1705 02:17:11,580 --> 02:17:17,219 the darker spots um you know what people want to be 1706 02:17:15,479 --> 02:17:20,399 actually out there with it or not so that's just one 1707 02:17:18,960 --> 02:17:23,700 consideration so when I've been to a lake and I went 1708 02:17:22,500 --> 02:17:27,000 to the marina they've got lights everywhere I don't 1709 02:17:25,260 --> 02:17:31,620 know is this such a thing as light pollution at a lake well definitely 1710 02:17:29,460 --> 02:17:36,359 Drapers is very dark but that's not Draper but but again it's just the 1711 02:17:34,439 --> 02:17:40,859 question is trying to figure out do we really want 1712 02:17:38,399 --> 02:17:44,639 to have the whole Trail lit or do you want to have it we need the 1713 02:17:42,780 --> 02:17:49,260 trail lit if we expect it to be used especially in the in the winter months 1714 02:17:46,679 --> 02:17:54,840 when daylight goes away early I have to think safety for our citizens 1715 02:17:51,420 --> 02:17:58,679 I think lighting is a high priority Pam did you you had others Pam correct we're 1716 02:17:56,460 --> 02:18:02,939 still ward two yes I did um the sound at the community center I 1717 02:18:00,840 --> 02:18:07,639 think that is a must yeah put that up there everything is going to be top of 1718 02:18:04,620 --> 02:18:07,639 the list you know that right 1719 02:18:07,740 --> 02:18:16,019 we need the sound center at a community center 1720 02:18:11,639 --> 02:18:22,019 budget for that put a big star by that underline it sorry 1721 02:18:19,460 --> 02:18:26,880 but you'll be able to speak about how much money you don't have clearly at the 1722 02:18:25,019 --> 02:18:32,040 community center we've talked about the activity center 1723 02:18:28,979 --> 02:18:37,320 that's on my list uh the Eagle Lake upgrade 1724 02:18:33,660 --> 02:18:41,460 a rain Trent Park and I would like to have a clear view of what we're going to 1725 02:18:39,780 --> 02:18:46,080 do there I just don't want to jump into something I want a good plan stealing my 1726 02:18:44,880 --> 02:18:51,719 thunder here so so yeah both of us both Kyle and I 1727 02:18:49,380 --> 02:18:55,679 are also agree which is which like I said I was talking about the village The 1728 02:18:53,099 --> 02:18:59,280 Village hired a company to come out and design the park 1729 02:18:57,240 --> 02:19:02,340 come up with the parts and in that way you have a clear vision of what you 1730 02:19:00,780 --> 02:19:07,679 would like and and in that way once you have that 1731 02:19:04,920 --> 02:19:11,519 part done is hopefully you can actually have that same company at least start 1732 02:19:09,359 --> 02:19:15,780 coming up with bids or different things that you might need for the engineering 1733 02:19:12,899 --> 02:19:18,599 drawings to submit some of that ACOG or yeah we're not getting some other 1734 02:19:16,859 --> 02:19:22,559 options you know this fiscal year we're not going to complete Ray Trent Park so 1735 02:19:20,399 --> 02:19:27,420 let's pay for the engineering that goes into the drawings and and the plan for 1736 02:19:25,559 --> 02:19:30,660 raytrain Park which would be great to coincide with everything that we're 1737 02:19:28,740 --> 02:19:34,859 going to be getting from half you know half is going to have a ton of stuff for 1738 02:19:32,160 --> 02:19:40,019 us too so that's what I'd like to see for Ray Trent yeah 1739 02:19:37,080 --> 02:19:44,179 okay the Rose Lane project at least a Clear Vision on that 1740 02:19:47,099 --> 02:19:53,520 at Edwards Park I would like those old shrubs taken out 1741 02:19:51,000 --> 02:19:56,899 and new trees put in that is very minimal Edwards 1742 02:19:59,880 --> 02:20:09,240 new signs or at least had the old ones touched up just so that they look good I 1743 02:20:06,120 --> 02:20:13,920 just the park signs right I just I'm a very visual person if I if you go into a 1744 02:20:12,180 --> 02:20:17,359 town and everything looks speed up it means we didn't take the time to care 1745 02:20:17,640 --> 02:20:24,120 um I think that 1746 02:20:20,939 --> 02:20:27,180 the city hall the garden out here it needs to be planted a water source and 1747 02:20:25,979 --> 02:20:31,200 mulched that's another thing it's a vision what 1748 02:20:29,939 --> 02:20:35,180 people come in to pay their water bill we looked we need to look 100 percent 1749 02:20:36,240 --> 02:20:39,020 and that's it 1750 02:20:39,540 --> 02:20:45,840 what do you have Claudia when we when we talk about 1751 02:20:43,460 --> 02:20:50,160 infrastructure we're talking about roads and drains and that sort of thing and 1752 02:20:47,640 --> 02:20:55,620 I'd like to get Bryant Avenue North of 15th Street if you guys have driven that 1753 02:20:52,740 --> 02:21:01,979 that is the worst piece of road that we own In the City by far and I have since 1754 02:20:59,040 --> 02:21:07,260 day one on Council I have been fighting to get some Headway there we need to 1755 02:21:04,380 --> 02:21:11,040 figure out that portion of of Bryant for sure and just so we're clear both uh 1756 02:21:09,300 --> 02:21:17,520 Hatfield and Craig have been working on that according to our surveys 1757 02:21:13,859 --> 02:21:22,920 that entire section 15th to Scott Street is not in Del City's limits that's why 1758 02:21:20,520 --> 02:21:26,100 we haven't touched it really that is on each one of their lists but we can't 1759 02:21:24,240 --> 02:21:29,939 touch the technically Oklahoma City's property now we are going to check that 1760 02:21:28,200 --> 02:21:33,600 survey it and figure out if that is the truth but when you look on the county 1761 02:21:31,979 --> 02:21:39,120 assessor's website and then previous surveys it actually shows as you move up 1762 02:21:36,180 --> 02:21:43,680 Bryant it slowly veers off to the east until Brian is completely covered by 1763 02:21:41,520 --> 02:21:47,340 Oklahoma City at which case if we know anybody that knows Oklahoma City Council 1764 02:21:45,660 --> 02:21:51,439 people we could ask them to do it for free for 1765 02:21:49,080 --> 02:21:51,439 us so 1766 02:21:53,760 --> 02:22:00,240 um so while you're figuring that out I believe that Vicki um is actually a very 1767 02:21:58,920 --> 02:22:06,660 important Street um they're between 15th and 29th um that 1768 02:22:03,600 --> 02:22:12,600 whole area needs to be resurfaced I did send some pictures to JD today with some 1769 02:22:10,380 --> 02:22:15,960 pretty large potholes that I think you know need to be fixed in the immediate 1770 02:22:14,520 --> 02:22:22,740 time um but I would like to see all of Vicki 1771 02:22:18,960 --> 02:22:31,319 between 15th and 29th be completely redone and also the um the school zone 1772 02:22:28,340 --> 02:22:36,180 wavy line what is the professional name for that squiggly line the squiggly line 1773 02:22:33,300 --> 02:22:41,160 thank you I believe all of that needs to be repainted and redone the crosswalks 1774 02:22:39,240 --> 02:22:45,479 need to be done yeah that would go hand in hand with the resurfacing project 1775 02:22:42,780 --> 02:22:52,140 yeah all of that um that that needs new face and staying in the old town area I 1776 02:22:49,020 --> 02:22:56,939 would like to see a park or even a splash pad 1777 02:22:54,000 --> 02:23:02,300 um I have looked into some possible grants 1778 02:22:58,080 --> 02:23:05,819 um out there for splash pads specifically so I know that there's 1779 02:23:04,200 --> 02:23:09,120 going to be some some good help out there but I think a splash pad would be 1780 02:23:07,620 --> 02:23:14,939 great for Old Town two parks in the state of Oklahoma that 1781 02:23:11,580 --> 02:23:19,620 have to have got to the top ten there's one up by Tulsa and actually the 1782 02:23:17,340 --> 02:23:22,920 scissortail splash pad is within the top ten 1783 02:23:20,460 --> 02:23:26,939 so we could be up there yeah it's definitely something that the kids would 1784 02:23:25,380 --> 02:23:34,439 really have a lot of fun with and they can actually walk there in that old town 1785 02:23:29,460 --> 02:23:41,460 area they definitely need more help and big picture here hopefully coinciding 1786 02:23:37,800 --> 02:23:50,100 with police I do know that we've got a pretty high Juvenile Detention rate and 1787 02:23:46,260 --> 02:23:55,200 I want to see what we can do to help our youth what is it that they that they 1788 02:23:52,500 --> 02:24:01,500 need after school during school what can we build for them that will keep them 1789 02:23:58,140 --> 02:24:06,420 keep them busy what can we do as a community there whether we grow the 1790 02:24:04,560 --> 02:24:11,280 community center and really start getting some things in there for our 1791 02:24:08,640 --> 02:24:16,740 youth but we definitely want to start seeing something for for for our youth 1792 02:24:14,100 --> 02:24:20,340 something that they can do and that was pretty much it Vicky's the is one of my 1793 02:24:18,840 --> 02:24:26,100 main things lighting I like what you said mayor we definitely could do with 1794 02:24:24,000 --> 02:24:32,880 updating a lot of our lighting lighting down Vicki Lighting near our schools 1795 02:24:28,380 --> 02:24:37,439 Lighting near our new Pathways we can definitely look into getting some kind 1796 02:24:35,100 --> 02:24:43,560 of help for for new lighting projects thank you so Vicki was on my thought as 1797 02:24:39,960 --> 02:24:48,060 well and so for us past Paving on it I think has only lasted about eight years 1798 02:24:45,420 --> 02:24:52,319 or seven years and so one of the things that I was talking to a Paving Company 1799 02:24:49,680 --> 02:24:55,319 about is it's just kind of how thick you're going to actually make it so 1800 02:24:54,060 --> 02:25:00,060 they're kind of laughing at some of the cities where they just do like a you 1801 02:24:57,300 --> 02:25:04,500 know a one inch or two inch and possibly you know changing that thickness to 1802 02:25:02,040 --> 02:25:08,160 hopefully make our main thoroughfare Vicki last longer so it would be better 1803 02:25:06,660 --> 02:25:12,359 to try to spend a little bit more money on that project and also looking into 1804 02:25:10,500 --> 02:25:16,380 the actual drainage to make sure that all the streets are draining down Vicky 1805 02:25:14,760 --> 02:25:19,939 because that's unfortunately where the water has to go that's the channel 1806 02:25:18,600 --> 02:25:25,979 well so Ward four 1807 02:25:22,560 --> 02:25:32,540 uh okay so I know High Soul it's it's kind of it's in need of some repair I 1808 02:25:29,040 --> 02:25:37,859 know it's on a list somewhere it has certainly started to degrade much faster 1809 02:25:35,280 --> 02:25:42,899 here in the last couple of years Howard another Street that's got some pretty 1810 02:25:40,340 --> 02:25:47,939 there's just some rough sections it's not you know it's not horrible but I 1811 02:25:45,300 --> 02:25:53,040 think it's I do spot repair yeah and it's and I think it's the 1812 02:25:50,520 --> 02:25:59,040 base layer whatever's underneath has failed in a few places basically from 1813 02:25:55,439 --> 02:26:03,000 Gina to just north of Judy is a really bad section there and it's from all the 1814 02:26:00,740 --> 02:26:07,080 there's one spot where I think a trash truck you can just tell that's where it 1815 02:26:04,800 --> 02:26:13,620 stops every time and it's just slowly worked that pavement there so 1816 02:26:10,020 --> 02:26:19,380 um there's that I would like for us to really work to get Eagle Lake connected 1817 02:26:17,040 --> 02:26:21,960 to Midwest City through that trail system there we're gonna be there's 1818 02:26:20,700 --> 02:26:28,140 going to be that that spot where we need a lot of grant 1819 02:26:24,899 --> 02:26:32,700 money for Trails yeah you know that it's going to stop right there sooner we're 1820 02:26:30,060 --> 02:26:36,240 going to have nothing you know we will be the we we will be the section of 1821 02:26:34,740 --> 02:26:41,939 Trail not there um here very shortly so I would like us 1822 02:26:38,939 --> 02:26:45,120 to really fight hard to do that we've already talked about Ray Trent where I 1823 02:26:43,680 --> 02:26:49,680 would just like us to spend some money on engineering you know I don't think we 1824 02:26:48,000 --> 02:26:54,540 should really spend anything until we know what we're going to be doing 5 10 1825 02:26:51,600 --> 02:27:00,000 15 years down the road there that's part of what we're doing with the 1826 02:26:56,520 --> 02:27:07,140 half company and so my other ones that I had since I passed online was uh over at 1827 02:27:04,020 --> 02:27:12,660 28th and Eberly at the fire station is this we're probably really need to look 1828 02:27:08,760 --> 02:27:17,280 at replacing that intersection from 28th in aprily over to the post office 1829 02:27:15,420 --> 02:27:21,840 because we always have all the heavy fire trucks in and out we have all the 1830 02:27:19,200 --> 02:27:26,340 traffic in and out that uh you know if we can get that to at least the mailbox 1831 02:27:24,120 --> 02:27:32,819 because the mailbox always has the part falling in but that would be a nice 1832 02:27:30,300 --> 02:27:38,880 smaller area to do but also on the other side of you know 31st Street has a lot 1833 02:27:36,840 --> 02:27:43,200 of failures but that's kind of more of again getting back to just road-based 1834 02:27:40,859 --> 02:27:48,479 failures back to 28th and Napoli I think there's a lot of heavy florist truck 1835 02:27:44,960 --> 02:27:53,040 going through there yeah yeah multiple ones okay as part of that 1836 02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:59,160 should we consider putting an actual rather than asphalt but concrete that's 1837 02:27:55,439 --> 02:28:03,540 concrete base right for not just the road but also in front of the mailboxes 1838 02:28:01,380 --> 02:28:07,680 that's that constantly is failing soon let's go back to that intersection when 1839 02:28:05,760 --> 02:28:11,160 we initially were designing the fire station there and there was an island 1840 02:28:09,540 --> 02:28:15,120 that had a flagpole and you guys remember the flagpole and in that little 1841 02:28:13,319 --> 02:28:22,260 island and we were supposed to put it was it a statue or a plaque to Bob Woods 1842 02:28:19,680 --> 02:28:26,760 in the center that then when we rebuild it all we got was grass 1843 02:28:24,600 --> 02:28:31,620 That was supposed to go back with a flagpole and a plaque honoring Bob woods 1844 02:28:29,580 --> 02:28:36,240 and that's something that we might look into 1845 02:28:32,819 --> 02:28:40,740 that would be some parts does the fire station not have a flagpole at all or 1846 02:28:38,340 --> 02:28:43,620 did they put it in the wrong place wrong place 1847 02:28:41,819 --> 02:28:47,939 yeah it's on the North side I wonder if we could get that moot 1848 02:28:45,780 --> 02:28:51,359 so mayor what if we did instead of doing the plaque and a 1849 02:28:49,680 --> 02:28:55,859 flagpole there what if we did a little just a little something 1850 02:28:52,859 --> 02:29:00,660 on the Rose Lane project just so good we talked about that 1851 02:28:57,479 --> 02:29:04,740 Rose Lane if you guys are familiar is the parking lot for what used to be 1852 02:29:02,580 --> 02:29:07,560 Gregory's and and all those other shops there and that actually belongs to the 1853 02:29:06,359 --> 02:29:12,540 city and what we had proposed in the past 1854 02:29:10,620 --> 02:29:17,700 this has been before the council in the past the area between The High Line 1855 02:29:15,060 --> 02:29:21,300 poles and the street right now it's concrete but it's kind of useless 1856 02:29:19,740 --> 02:29:26,340 because you really can't get around in parking it it's hard to get through 1857 02:29:22,800 --> 02:29:31,680 there so in the past we had proposed take out the concrete section from the 1858 02:29:28,800 --> 02:29:36,720 Highline polls to 29th Street make a Green Space there with sort of the 1859 02:29:34,020 --> 02:29:40,500 winding sidewalk going through there in fact we have drawings for that we had 1860 02:29:39,000 --> 02:29:45,600 that engineered and uh 1861 02:29:42,319 --> 02:29:52,020 perhaps we could put electrical outlets at strategic places so that when we have 1862 02:29:48,780 --> 02:29:56,819 some sort of event in that area like the music festivals that we had the music 1863 02:29:53,580 --> 02:30:02,040 programs vendors could set up you suggested the 1864 02:29:59,040 --> 02:30:07,200 uh business Market could be held outside with tents and and that'd be a great 1865 02:30:04,859 --> 02:30:13,920 event to put there if we make that green space in between The High Line poles and 1866 02:30:10,500 --> 02:30:19,560 29th Street yeah as a part of on a couple of different occasions half had 1867 02:30:16,260 --> 02:30:24,540 some really very cool drawings where they had taken brick and they had taken 1868 02:30:22,080 --> 02:30:28,800 grass and they had made it really a very usable some examples of some very usable 1869 02:30:26,700 --> 02:30:33,000 spaces there that um I thought and they actually had I if 1870 02:30:30,960 --> 02:30:38,399 I remember correct they actually had a rendering of what specifically what Rose 1871 02:30:35,640 --> 02:30:42,060 Lane could look like for what looked like a 1872 02:30:39,420 --> 02:30:46,500 minimal investment really we actually have engineered drawings of that area 1873 02:30:43,979 --> 02:30:50,460 where we proposed it yeah so that could be a that could be an easy I think when 1874 02:30:48,899 --> 02:30:54,960 we were working on that that's about when covet hit and everything came to a 1875 02:30:53,280 --> 02:30:58,620 screeching home so that's something that could be Revisited we can pull out the 1876 02:30:57,180 --> 02:31:02,100 old drawings we really don't have to re-engineer it 1877 02:31:00,240 --> 02:31:06,899 one of the suggestions was to put all the high line polls underground however 1878 02:31:04,200 --> 02:31:11,939 that's cost prohibitive not only to the city who would be doing the main lines 1879 02:31:09,240 --> 02:31:15,660 but all the shops that are served off of the feeder systems from that from those 1880 02:31:14,160 --> 02:31:20,160 Highline wires because they would have to convert from overhead service to 1881 02:31:18,420 --> 02:31:25,920 underground service and that would put the burden on each individual shop 1882 02:31:22,620 --> 02:31:30,600 so we kind of nixed that program and went to just realigning The High Line 1883 02:31:29,100 --> 02:31:34,319 polls getting them in a straight line right now if you look at them they're 1884 02:31:32,040 --> 02:31:38,580 kind of all over the place that there's no Rhyme or Reason to the system 1885 02:31:36,359 --> 02:31:41,460 but we do have drawings for that and I think that's something we could bring 1886 02:31:39,600 --> 02:31:50,720 out and revisit so I agree my other uh thought was this 1887 02:31:45,060 --> 02:31:57,780 uh the sidewalk between about 25th is 24th and 22nd on sunny lane so what we 1888 02:31:54,840 --> 02:32:01,979 currently you have a lot of people in Pam's neighborhood that try to walk up 1889 02:32:00,240 --> 02:32:06,540 along Sunny Lane in between Sunny Lane and the creek that's open without a 1890 02:32:03,960 --> 02:32:11,040 guardrail or any kind of railing so when we discussed this we came up to 1891 02:32:08,760 --> 02:32:13,160 the thing is this we can't put a railing in 1892 02:32:18,180 --> 02:32:25,260 between the railing and that it's Crush zone so they we got nixed on trying to 1893 02:32:23,520 --> 02:32:30,540 make it safer that way but we we discussed this is that we 1894 02:32:27,720 --> 02:32:34,859 think with a minimal amount of of work and looking at it that we could get 1895 02:32:32,100 --> 02:32:40,260 enough room between the creek and the houses and use that's use the west side 1896 02:32:38,100 --> 02:32:44,040 of the creek to go and make the uh yeah sidewalk on the west side of the canal 1897 02:32:42,780 --> 02:32:48,060 right and then that way you know we at least 1898 02:32:45,840 --> 02:32:52,319 solve that part so I mean it might take you know you know a small amount of 1899 02:32:50,640 --> 02:32:56,040 purchases or different things and then just to get the sidewalk put in I think 1900 02:32:54,180 --> 02:32:59,760 that'd possibly some things there it's overgrown right there are trees growing 1901 02:32:57,600 --> 02:33:04,680 in it so you're looking at Public Works coming in and clearing some trees 1902 02:33:02,220 --> 02:33:09,180 and that would be that and just the concrete I don't right yeah we stopped 1903 02:33:07,140 --> 02:33:13,380 whenever we went out there yeah we looked and measured it yeah and it 1904 02:33:10,979 --> 02:33:17,040 looked it looked it looked close and and if we don't then we unfortunately you 1905 02:33:15,300 --> 02:33:22,620 know we just go and see about buying a little bit of time you land out yeah 1906 02:33:19,200 --> 02:33:27,240 five five four feet change the fence out yeah and have it but that's another 1907 02:33:24,479 --> 02:33:30,600 project I think we've got more projects that we're going to be able to do right 1908 02:33:28,740 --> 02:33:35,060 now that's true but the big thing is I wanted to make sure you all had a chance 1909 02:33:31,920 --> 02:33:35,060 to talk about this because 1910 02:33:35,100 --> 02:33:40,380 and then as we go through the fiscal year a project comes up and then we have 1911 02:33:38,460 --> 02:33:44,100 to find the money and that's usually the burden for Miss Melissa's can you find 1912 02:33:42,359 --> 02:33:47,880 the money in the couch cushion for us to do this and it's better to have it 1913 02:33:45,960 --> 02:33:51,000 prepared for up front or give us the opportunity with the grant writing team 1914 02:33:49,319 --> 02:33:53,180 I'm putting together to go look for that money 1915 02:33:54,439 --> 02:34:03,479 what we could do is perhaps you and I could sit down and sort of put together 1916 02:34:01,080 --> 02:34:07,319 a prioritized list and then present it to the council at 1917 02:34:05,640 --> 02:34:12,120 the next meeting is everybody good with that yes I I 1918 02:34:09,840 --> 02:34:17,700 wanted to talk back to that 28th in Everly several portions that that has 1919 02:34:14,460 --> 02:34:21,420 have has already been replaced so 1920 02:34:19,020 --> 02:34:26,100 but there's another one starting that's right there in front of 28th and Everly 1921 02:34:23,460 --> 02:34:31,500 another traffic from the floor shop it is actually 1922 02:34:27,540 --> 02:34:36,359 but also let's think about doing the alleyway where the post office is 1923 02:34:33,780 --> 02:34:40,680 because it is horrible and the city disown that that needs to be a complete 1924 02:34:38,460 --> 02:34:45,420 new road base there that's what we need I mean I think that would go with 1925 02:34:42,180 --> 02:34:50,640 concrete rather than well that initially started when we had a water line brick 1926 02:34:47,399 --> 02:34:54,479 there and that saturated the road base what you got wrong and I think that 1927 02:34:52,800 --> 02:34:57,479 you'd have to think about that whether or not we have any more water main 1928 02:34:56,100 --> 02:35:03,479 problems we might want to change the water maybe before you start pouring 1929 02:34:58,979 --> 02:35:07,979 concrete so the one one thought JD is if we could possibly look into 1930 02:35:06,000 --> 02:35:11,399 kind of having a knowledge after doing the budget that 1931 02:35:09,840 --> 02:35:16,140 drainage has this amount of money recurring each 1932 02:35:14,399 --> 02:35:19,439 year not not necessarily just how much it is but recurring and then that way we 1933 02:35:17,939 --> 02:35:23,939 could go and say you know as I have a drainage box or this stuff or different 1934 02:35:21,240 --> 02:35:27,479 thoughts that we can look at seeing if we could you know that can that could 1935 02:35:25,859 --> 02:35:32,939 stimulate some thoughts about how to spend some money without 1936 02:35:30,120 --> 02:35:37,020 going into you know the money that that's kind of stored I actually think 1937 02:35:35,280 --> 02:35:41,100 I'd be interested in hearing Chief Burger he probably has some ideas have 1938 02:35:39,479 --> 02:35:44,399 you got some things that like a wish list is there something you'd like to 1939 02:35:42,899 --> 02:35:48,060 add to this no we're going to open it come on up 1940 02:35:46,319 --> 02:35:50,359 Chief and and tell us what you're thinking 1941 02:35:51,120 --> 02:35:59,220 we're we're going to practice the answer for you right now no no no no 1942 02:35:56,340 --> 02:36:04,200 okay we've practiced one of the things I'd like to consider and I've spent some 1943 02:36:01,080 --> 02:36:09,060 time talking with JD on it is replacing our whole Cad and RMS which is our 1944 02:36:06,960 --> 02:36:13,380 computer aided dispatching and Records management system currently we're 1945 02:36:11,100 --> 02:36:19,260 offering off operating off of a cardinal system they're based out of Texas it's 1946 02:36:16,680 --> 02:36:25,020 been in place there in the PD now I think it went in 98 we went live with it 1947 02:36:22,500 --> 02:36:28,260 in 99. um 1948 02:36:25,859 --> 02:36:33,180 I had a company come in there actually took over in running County right now 1949 02:36:30,420 --> 02:36:37,020 and uh calibers was the name of the company and 1950 02:36:35,520 --> 02:36:41,280 they're actually running it for Oklahoma County they came in and looked at my 1951 02:36:39,540 --> 02:36:46,200 system and said okay this is what you have and basically said we're operating 1952 02:36:43,740 --> 02:36:51,660 on late 90s technology so one of the things that it would 1953 02:36:48,720 --> 02:36:55,020 benefit is for example when an officer does a report now he goes out and takes 1954 02:36:53,220 --> 02:36:59,880 a report if we have to run a driver's license and ID for the report he's 1955 02:36:57,240 --> 02:37:05,100 inputting that information in three or four or five different modules over and 1956 02:37:02,280 --> 02:37:10,560 over again this new system allows drop drag and drop once that's information is 1957 02:37:08,819 --> 02:37:15,840 ran by a dispatcher it automatically drops it automatically populates 1958 02:37:13,140 --> 02:37:20,939 and eventually building onto that system with laptops in the cars my goal with 1959 02:37:18,960 --> 02:37:25,680 that would be to keep the officers in the cars on the street yeah 1960 02:37:23,939 --> 02:37:31,260 currently if an officer goes out and he takes a simple vandalism report a petty 1961 02:37:28,200 --> 02:37:35,160 Larson airport a simple report he has to return to the station and come in and 1962 02:37:33,420 --> 02:37:40,200 he's going for that one report he's going to spend a minimum of 20 to 30 1963 02:37:38,340 --> 02:37:45,600 minutes just on a simple report right there in the station doing that if he 1964 02:37:42,479 --> 02:37:49,260 gets into a large report a DUI accident or anything like that a domestic 1965 02:37:47,399 --> 02:37:52,859 violence he could spend several hours there in the station doing a report and 1966 02:37:51,060 --> 02:37:57,840 it takes him off the street right whereas some of these new reporting 1967 02:37:54,840 --> 02:38:03,780 systems automatically populate fill in charges on different sections and would 1968 02:38:00,960 --> 02:38:08,100 keep them in the car a lot longer out on the street he could the officer could do 1969 02:38:05,640 --> 02:38:12,479 a simple report right there on scene and have it submitted and gone so I think 1970 02:38:10,680 --> 02:38:18,359 there's some updating we've looked at different options we've been looking at 1971 02:38:14,640 --> 02:38:22,080 some grant funding on that also but just so you know where I'm kind of headed 1972 02:38:19,740 --> 02:38:25,740 next with some of my major projects is is that do you have any idea what the 1973 02:38:24,240 --> 02:38:29,880 dollar figure is on something like that a budgetary number caliber when they 1974 02:38:28,020 --> 02:38:34,439 came in here a few weeks ago and gave us an estimate I just got their budget 1975 02:38:31,620 --> 02:38:38,640 they're looking at about 283 thousand dollars an initial setup and then 1976 02:38:36,960 --> 02:38:42,780 they're looking at about reoccurring cost every year about seventy seven 1977 02:38:40,500 --> 02:38:47,819 thousand dollars so it's quite an expense currently we pay just under 1978 02:38:45,600 --> 02:38:52,439 fifteen thousand dollars a year for Cardinal so it's quite as quite a step 1979 02:38:51,600 --> 02:38:57,899 there but I think with technology come along 1980 02:38:55,080 --> 02:39:01,800 this is the way we need to go so does this include the laptops in the in the 1981 02:38:59,880 --> 02:39:07,859 officer's car or no that's another that's another major expense 1982 02:39:06,060 --> 02:39:12,420 right so what's nice about this though is we 1983 02:39:10,800 --> 02:39:17,220 all would like to have more police out on the street and more visibility yes so 1984 02:39:15,600 --> 02:39:22,080 without having to hire two or three more officers per shift we 1985 02:39:19,920 --> 02:39:25,319 can get that through just having the reports being able to be done out of the 1986 02:39:23,939 --> 02:39:28,380 field and 1987 02:39:26,640 --> 02:39:31,200 and the system I'm looking at there's more out there I'm looking at another 1988 02:39:29,700 --> 02:39:35,040 one also um half a million yeah there's there's a 1989 02:39:33,660 --> 02:39:38,700 bunch of them out there but you're also talking record sharing 1990 02:39:36,840 --> 02:39:42,899 when we get into this we will have access and sharing records not only 1991 02:39:40,740 --> 02:39:47,399 Statewide Nationwide to be able to share currently 1992 02:39:45,300 --> 02:39:53,640 on our Cardinal system it's our system nobody can access it and we only have 1993 02:39:50,460 --> 02:39:57,060 our data and nobody else's data so we're kind of on our own little island again 1994 02:39:55,200 --> 02:40:00,660 right here without sharing any data so this opens that door allows us to be 1995 02:39:59,399 --> 02:40:05,100 able to see criminal history all of that right there 1996 02:40:03,120 --> 02:40:10,040 in the car and be able to share data know what somebody's done with this 1997 02:40:07,200 --> 02:40:15,240 person in Tulsa or Wichita or wherever so what we're dealing with we're going 1998 02:40:12,780 --> 02:40:18,359 to need to look for some grant money so just so you know we've already had that 1999 02:40:16,800 --> 02:40:22,920 conversation this morning we'll have a grant submitted most likely by Friday or 2000 02:40:20,340 --> 02:40:28,020 Monday of next week for the initial cost of this if we can squeeze the laptops 2001 02:40:25,380 --> 02:40:32,280 out of them too even better the problem we're having is if we can get these 2002 02:40:30,300 --> 02:40:36,180 one-time costs funded and that's not just for his project I pick on him but 2003 02:40:34,140 --> 02:40:39,660 all of his projects are phenomenal but any of these things that we do it's the 2004 02:40:37,800 --> 02:40:43,319 recurring that's going to get us hence why we did these water meters there is 2005 02:40:41,340 --> 02:40:48,960 no recurring cost it was a giant up front luckily arpa came in and took care 2006 02:40:45,840 --> 02:40:53,040 of this that covers that cost but the 77 000 recurring he's already got fifteen 2007 02:40:51,359 --> 02:40:57,180 thousand dollar budgeted but he still needs 60 2008 02:40:54,359 --> 02:41:01,160 5 000 or more to do that and Melissa do we have an extra 65 a year lying around 2009 02:40:59,160 --> 02:41:05,399 not so much we'd have to move it around modify it change it up 2010 02:41:03,720 --> 02:41:10,560 but you can look at it steal it from Hatfield in the officer what is an 2011 02:41:07,439 --> 02:41:13,160 officer just a generic officer cost a year 100 2012 02:41:14,120 --> 02:41:22,560 and we're looking at over the course of a year keeping the officers out in the 2013 02:41:19,680 --> 02:41:26,819 field out on the street much more than just one officer 2014 02:41:24,180 --> 02:41:31,380 so I mean the payback on this is going to be ongoing even though it's 2015 02:41:29,040 --> 02:41:36,359 77 000 a year what percentage of an officer shift do they spend writing 2016 02:41:33,240 --> 02:41:38,780 reports do you think on average 25 50 percent 2017 02:41:40,439 --> 02:41:47,220 it varies but I would say a good estimate is probably 40 to 50 percent 2018 02:41:44,399 --> 02:41:52,200 okay so take one officer and you have paid for that the cost of the cost of 2019 02:41:50,280 --> 02:41:55,080 the annual Stone by having them on the street at that point yeah but you're not 2020 02:41:53,760 --> 02:41:58,500 telling me to get rid of an officer right telling you to get rid of an 2021 02:41:56,340 --> 02:42:04,380 officer I'm saying that it is paid for and we are basically doubling our police 2022 02:42:01,439 --> 02:42:09,140 presence by just spending sixty five thousand dollars I like it I like it I 2023 02:42:06,600 --> 02:42:09,140 may be adding more 2024 02:42:09,600 --> 02:42:19,340 more of your facility I did also notice that your dispatch system was fairly old 2025 02:42:16,620 --> 02:42:24,300 as well would that tie in together that is all together the cad is the 2026 02:42:22,439 --> 02:42:28,200 computer-aided dispatching in the and the RMS is the records management 2027 02:42:26,280 --> 02:42:31,979 and you have to have both those in conjunction with each other so caliber 2028 02:42:30,120 --> 02:42:36,300 does both those and that's tying them both together so you can run so the 2029 02:42:35,040 --> 02:42:40,680 officer goes out there and runs a driver's license and dispatch is running 2030 02:42:38,640 --> 02:42:43,740 that if that officer doesn't run it in the car and he drops it in there and the 2031 02:42:42,240 --> 02:42:48,120 officer has all the information to include photograph on the driver's 2032 02:42:45,600 --> 02:42:53,100 license everything right there and then can turn and then drop that into a 2033 02:42:50,100 --> 02:42:57,960 report which saves the entry time over time currently we went to the 2034 02:42:55,859 --> 02:43:02,040 electronic ticket Riders here about a year ago 2035 02:42:59,060 --> 02:43:06,780 and over time this system also would allow us to integrate their electronic 2036 02:43:04,859 --> 02:43:10,680 ticket Riders into this and to be able to take away from what we're currently 2037 02:43:08,100 --> 02:43:15,420 paying to Tyler so I could absorb some of those costs in that over time but 2038 02:43:12,899 --> 02:43:20,280 we're in a contract with them for a period of time but over time I would 2039 02:43:17,819 --> 02:43:24,060 look at reabsorbing them across back in there and seeing what we could do to 2040 02:43:22,020 --> 02:43:28,979 help with that cost but it's going to be a major cost to try to get into it right 2041 02:43:26,160 --> 02:43:32,760 away get into what we need but again that's why I want to put it out there 2042 02:43:30,479 --> 02:43:36,660 that we have a goal one of the things that this is sort of 2043 02:43:35,040 --> 02:43:41,760 out in left field for something that I would think would be advantageous would 2044 02:43:39,120 --> 02:43:45,120 be like a dictation uh piece to the software where officers can 2045 02:43:44,100 --> 02:43:49,439 actually I don't not everyone types all that fast 2046 02:43:47,460 --> 02:43:52,800 so just another time saving thing it's just something in the medical field 2047 02:43:50,640 --> 02:43:55,800 that's pretty prevalent that saves a lot of time no they make those for law 2048 02:43:54,359 --> 02:44:01,319 enforcement too and I've had to use those in the past on the smaller 2049 02:43:59,160 --> 02:44:05,640 instances but yeah so Chief just so I have it down for our special project 2050 02:44:02,760 --> 02:44:09,540 discussion the cad RMS system goes hand in hand they're not separate systems 2051 02:44:07,200 --> 02:44:13,620 it's one system as a whole you need them to be one system as well yes they are 2052 02:44:11,399 --> 02:44:18,420 two different areas but they need to be in one system okay laptops in the 2053 02:44:15,899 --> 02:44:21,840 vehicles yes and then you're going to need either cellular phone or tablet 2054 02:44:20,040 --> 02:44:25,319 service within those laptops to get the information back and forth yes so 2055 02:44:23,700 --> 02:44:29,520 that'll be a recurring cost is there anything else specific to this project 2056 02:44:27,300 --> 02:44:34,020 or another project we need to put into this to make it all 2057 02:44:31,800 --> 02:44:37,800 no because we currently have iPads in the car which have Wi-Fi service So 2058 02:44:36,479 --> 02:44:42,180 eventually what we would be doing is we're taking that what we're paying 2059 02:44:39,240 --> 02:44:46,380 currently for iPad service to like forty dollars in the penny per 2060 02:44:44,160 --> 02:44:50,220 eye flat per iPad out there in a car right now that would go away and 2061 02:44:48,300 --> 02:44:53,700 replacing it with the Wi-Fi service in the in the eye in the laptop and so 2062 02:44:52,319 --> 02:44:59,819 there's some things that can be rolled into that offset as we as we take the 2063 02:44:55,620 --> 02:45:03,780 iPads out and put a laptop in so be offsetting value yes Chieftain we 2064 02:45:02,040 --> 02:45:07,620 discussed that you have a problem with your emergency generator and what's 2065 02:45:05,819 --> 02:45:13,319 supplied there so I'm thinking that maybe we should budget five or ten 2066 02:45:09,780 --> 02:45:18,660 thousand to fix services that that it's not the generator it's just where where 2067 02:45:15,479 --> 02:45:23,040 the circuit breaker panel is sending the electricity to and we have found that 2068 02:45:20,280 --> 02:45:28,800 out over the last couple storms is when they wired The Dispatch Center only 2069 02:45:26,640 --> 02:45:32,760 certain amount of plugs in that Dispatch Center are powered up by the emergency 2070 02:45:30,899 --> 02:45:38,160 generator yeah hold them if the power goes out the building basically shuts 2071 02:45:35,280 --> 02:45:42,300 down except for certain outlets in the Dispatch Center 2072 02:45:40,680 --> 02:45:45,359 and that generator is big enough to run the whole department and why it wasn't 2073 02:45:43,800 --> 02:45:50,520 that way it's I don't know so but we've gotten more 2074 02:45:48,479 --> 02:45:55,260 maintenance is coming out on a regular basis and making sure it's updated and 2075 02:45:52,859 --> 02:46:00,479 we'll start and run for us a last power outage where everything was just fine 2076 02:45:57,060 --> 02:46:04,859 but yes eventually looking at being able to power the whole building 2077 02:46:01,979 --> 02:46:09,840 yeah so it seems like we should budget 7 500 or so mayor might have a better idea 2078 02:46:08,220 --> 02:46:14,760 of what it would cost but to go and figure out how to get the uh circuits on 2079 02:46:12,000 --> 02:46:20,479 the right circuit okay all right very good thank you thank you 2080 02:46:17,460 --> 02:46:20,479 Ron what do you got 2081 02:46:27,660 --> 02:46:29,660 it 2082 02:46:32,880 --> 02:46:40,740 excuse me Roma Cole 3403 South Wilford again still 2083 02:46:39,060 --> 02:46:47,399 I don't know how many of you are aware of the situation with the 2084 02:46:42,840 --> 02:46:51,840 zebra one the dog catcher currently Oklahoma City's animal shelter 2085 02:46:50,520 --> 02:46:56,479 over here shut down due to 2086 02:46:53,399 --> 02:47:01,380 animal influenza consequently they're not taking any new 2087 02:46:58,620 --> 02:47:06,000 animals unless they're vicious which leaves our Animal control officer 2088 02:47:03,720 --> 02:47:11,160 in kind of a dilemma she's having to store 2089 02:47:08,300 --> 02:47:15,479 non-vicious animals at a little facility at off of poor Street 2090 02:47:14,100 --> 02:47:18,300 I don't know how many of you been up there I've taken the off I had the 2091 02:47:17,040 --> 02:47:21,540 opportunity to run up there here a while back when I delivered some dog food for 2092 02:47:20,280 --> 02:47:27,420 her they have a little approximately 10 by 2093 02:47:23,700 --> 02:47:31,740 10 chain link cage dirt floor 2094 02:47:29,340 --> 02:47:36,800 does have a roof over it but they're utilizing Igloo type 2095 02:47:33,660 --> 02:47:36,800 doghouses in there 2096 02:47:37,920 --> 02:47:46,080 as I say it's a dirt floor you guys been talking about hundreds of 2097 02:47:43,380 --> 02:47:51,420 thousands millions of dollars I'm talking 2098 02:47:48,720 --> 02:47:57,540 a thousand ten thousand Maybe to run a concrete floor set that pin off 2099 02:47:53,819 --> 02:48:01,800 over on it she's using an Old Wagon covered wagon 2100 02:47:59,399 --> 02:48:06,120 I'm going to call it as a trailer a storage for you know food and other 2101 02:48:04,260 --> 02:48:12,000 supplies looks like we could do something up 2102 02:48:09,180 --> 02:48:18,439 there to make it a little bit more inhabitable for those animals 2103 02:48:14,220 --> 02:48:18,439 a little more humane yeah 2104 02:48:18,780 --> 02:48:24,180 inconvenient you know a step clear back around behind 2105 02:48:22,260 --> 02:48:27,960 all the maintenance equipment and buildings 2106 02:48:25,680 --> 02:48:35,960 not exactly easy to get to and even access to that PIN 2107 02:48:31,800 --> 02:48:35,960 you're walking through water or mud 2108 02:48:36,540 --> 02:48:43,380 okay we weren't aware of that so I just want to bring it to your attention maybe 2109 02:48:41,399 --> 02:48:48,060 you could find an extra an extra load of concrete somewhere 2110 02:48:45,660 --> 02:48:51,720 to lay a concrete pad four inches thick put it open the cage 2111 02:48:50,580 --> 02:48:55,020 over it some type of a little storage building 2112 02:48:53,340 --> 02:48:59,880 that she can at least have a decent place to store the food or 2113 02:48:57,300 --> 02:49:03,420 whatever necessity she needs I don't even think she has running water at that 2114 02:49:01,560 --> 02:49:06,660 area yeah we can get a water line that's 2115 02:49:05,100 --> 02:49:09,479 doable right if you're gonna have a concrete floor 2116 02:49:07,859 --> 02:49:13,319 why not have a water line that's moist with concrete off with 2117 02:49:11,220 --> 02:49:15,560 you're going to have to open right water line 2118 02:49:20,180 --> 02:49:24,560 that's like to make trenchers for 2119 02:49:26,160 --> 02:49:32,580 okay all right thank you anyway Victoria I'm sure Victoria would appreciate it 2120 02:49:30,000 --> 02:49:36,300 yeah thanks for bringing it so the other question is is you know we built you 2121 02:49:34,380 --> 02:49:40,920 guys a new Public Works building you have a lot of these 2122 02:49:37,880 --> 02:49:45,420 right and that's that's my question right 2123 02:49:42,899 --> 02:49:51,020 is where it is is there any spot you know any spot 2124 02:49:48,720 --> 02:49:54,420 inside the old warehouses down there 2125 02:49:52,979 --> 02:49:59,580 you know the different spots that you got that she could possibly use 2126 02:49:56,640 --> 02:50:03,359 let's yeah so so anyway if you guys could if you guys could look into let's 2127 02:50:01,439 --> 02:50:07,920 look into that the nice thing about a word that pin is there is a nice big 2128 02:50:05,760 --> 02:50:12,060 tree yeah maybe maybe we can have you guys look 2129 02:50:10,620 --> 02:50:15,899 into that and come up with some suggestions the next council meeting 2130 02:50:14,819 --> 02:50:19,200 um sorry guys 2131 02:50:17,819 --> 02:50:22,819 thanks Ron we're on it thank you 2132 02:50:26,939 --> 02:50:33,300 okay it's and I think there we probably should ask 2133 02:50:30,960 --> 02:50:38,880 those guys I mean are we what kind of are we gonna buy anything from 2134 02:50:36,240 --> 02:50:42,420 Public Works let's let them look at it and come back with suggestions in two 2135 02:50:40,800 --> 02:50:47,640 weeks the hour is getting late and we have 2136 02:50:44,760 --> 02:50:52,080 plenty to do still so the question says Public Works have any one or two 2137 02:50:49,979 --> 02:50:56,399 projects they want to bring up Public Works do you have anything you want to 2138 02:50:54,180 --> 02:51:01,580 talk about like one or two projects or anything else 2139 02:50:57,840 --> 02:51:01,580 don't say a dog kennel 2140 02:51:01,740 --> 02:51:09,020 that's already out there going once do not say a knuckle boom 2141 02:51:06,840 --> 02:51:09,020 truck 2142 02:51:12,540 --> 02:51:18,439 where are the knuckle boom trucks how far out are we on this 2143 02:51:16,140 --> 02:51:18,439 awesome 2144 02:51:22,460 --> 02:51:27,420 at the parade we're going to use them to block off the 2145 02:51:26,100 --> 02:51:31,260 streets any projects that I would like to see 2146 02:51:29,700 --> 02:51:37,399 down our Public Works would like to see done 2147 02:51:32,100 --> 02:51:42,899 is just keep updating our outdated technology in our buildings 2148 02:51:40,200 --> 02:51:47,700 so I won't get specific but there's things that are very very old 2149 02:51:45,720 --> 02:51:51,780 that need to be once you bring us back some suggestions okay bring us back 2150 02:51:50,160 --> 02:51:56,040 something and let's go back to the knuckle boom truck for just a minute yes 2151 02:51:53,399 --> 02:52:01,920 sir so are we approaching the time when we can take over the large trash project 2152 02:51:58,760 --> 02:52:05,880 ourselves is that something that is coming soon 2153 02:52:03,779 --> 02:52:08,939 most likely next year because we've still got to get two new sanitation 2154 02:52:07,140 --> 02:52:15,660 drivers to be able to handle that right we have a couple proposals to pitch 2155 02:52:15,000 --> 02:52:20,060 um we're making some changes in the 2156 02:52:17,399 --> 02:52:25,020 sanitation department we're going to request to open two more jobs 2157 02:52:23,279 --> 02:52:30,779 in that division we're hoping for and I'm very optimistic 2158 02:52:28,200 --> 02:52:35,220 that it'll be this next fiscal year okay so all right well I'm I'm really 2159 02:52:32,640 --> 02:52:40,800 interested in in taking control of the large trash days and I really like the 2160 02:52:37,920 --> 02:52:46,680 idea of doing it perhaps by Wards rather than having the entire city with trash 2161 02:52:43,380 --> 02:52:51,479 on the curb for however long one of the proposals just do award at a time and 2162 02:52:49,260 --> 02:52:54,479 work through it one of the ideas that you mentioned we've actually we're 2163 02:52:52,740 --> 02:52:57,720 trying to incorporate both ideas into one and 2164 02:52:55,560 --> 02:53:03,359 okay let's see if that'll work we're looking forward to hearing your proposal 2165 02:52:59,460 --> 02:53:07,859 all right thank you yes sir all right let's um let's close this public 2166 02:53:06,359 --> 02:53:13,340 discussion now I would entertain a motion to close the discussion make a 2167 02:53:09,540 --> 02:53:13,340 motion we close the discussion second 2168 02:53:15,060 --> 02:53:20,340 we

those things and then and then anybody 2178 02:54:01,859 --> 02:54:06,660 who's putting up things like you know that shouldn't be put up have the code 2179 02:54:05,160 --> 02:54:10,680 people call
