[6:07] special meeting minutes from last Friday on the September
[6:14] docket. So these are only for the August 4th order works meeting.
[6:17] » I have no further. >> All right. Hear none. I have a motion
[6:21] and second. All in favor of approving the August 4th order of works meeting
[6:24] minutes by saying I. >> I.
[6:26] » And I have an I. Motion carries. Next item of business going to be the
[6:31] claims for August 18th totaling $713,924.75.
[6:39] Is there a motion to approve celebration?
[6:41] » Second. >> All right. I have a motion and a second.
[6:45] Any discussion for that? I will say it's a little higher because of the Julie.
[6:49] You want to give us a little insight to the clarifier release? Uh well the
[6:55] retainage is 217,000 change but the last um
[7:02] the last pay process for them was so the liver
[7:07] » but we did release the retain >> I sent paperwork today to release the
[7:13] back to it was like 2007 was 10,000.
[7:18] » All right.
[7:22] Further questions, comments, concerns regarding the
[7:26] claims submitted totaling 713,92475.
[7:38] I have a motion and a second. All in favor approving second by saying I
[7:43] » I motion carry.
[7:48] All right, on to our new business.
[7:54] First, let's get a motion over there. A motion to approve the amend
[8:00] amendment to ordinance 2024-14, which regards the changing the community
[8:06] center rental hours. And I'll let Julie go through why this is a needed item.
[8:12] Um, >> okay. So, after some discussion with the
[8:15] ladies over at the community center, Um, an issue that we were having was people
[8:21] were showing up the night before their rental. If they rented on a Saturday,
[8:26] they would show up on Friday. We actually had somebody show up at 6:30 in
[8:29] the morning on Friday, not knowing if anybody else had rented it. And then
[8:33] they're showing up really early in the morning before their rental time. So, if
[8:36] somebody's renting 4 hours, they're showing up hours beforehand to decorate,
[8:41] do whatever, but they're only renting for four hours. That being said, we're
[8:45] also having an issue with the community center being um open till 11:00 and
[8:51] people having theirs till 11. Sometimes they wouldn't leave by 11 and we have a
[8:54] lady that comes in to clean and she has to wait until everybody's gone to clean.
[8:58] So, she's there at the we hours of the morning trying to get the building
[9:00] clean. Hence the reason to see about changing the community center rental
[9:05] hours after speaking to the ladies so that it would be from 8 to 10. no one in
[9:09] the building before 8:00 a.m. and no one after um 10 p.m. So that gives them a
[9:15] little bit better window to be able to do the cleaning without having to be
[9:18] there at 1 or 2 o'clock in the morning or whatever. So
[9:21] » I'll make a motion to uh >> and I'll second
[9:26] » amend the ordinance 2414.
[9:29] » So two I have two questions on this one real quick. So, the amendment of the
[9:33] ordinance should not go through council for amending an ordinance. And then
[9:37] secondly, if this is just part of the contract, can't we just amend the
[9:40] contract? >> I don't believe that I don't believe
[9:43] that the hours on there were like on the ordinance part of it. This just to be
[9:48] able to say that we can change that because on the on the contract where
[9:53] people rent, it doesn't give the hours from like 6:00 to 11 or what. It just
[9:58] says nobody in there past 11 p.m. This just sets a precedent for that contract
[10:03] today. It's not in the ordinance. >> Let's reach out to Mariam for your
[10:06] question about the I'm pretty sure we can amend the contract but not the
[10:10] ordinance. >> That's what that's what it is is for
[10:12] amending the contract because I don't believe this in the ordinance that that
[10:15] that any set hours in there cuz I looked and I didn't see anything.
[10:18] » Okay. >> So, this is just saying that you will
[10:21] approve to be able to set those hours in that rental contract from 8:00 a.m. to
[10:25] 10 p.m. in those hours. I'm just clarifying it because it says amending
[10:29] the ordinance itself and that's not >> Yeah, I don't believe that it's amending
[10:31] the >> M. You want to clarify that?
[10:34] » Yeah, I agree with the discussion that you're you're not amending the
[10:37] ordinance. Um you're you can go ahead and amend the contract and you can go
[10:42] ahead and change the um hours as the board of works.
[10:45] » Okay. >> Change the motion.
[10:48] » Yeah, just so we have it on on me. So, do we need to re I know you're going to
[10:53] change the motion, but do we need to reword out amended to ordinance? Just
[10:56] say amended the contract the use of the the building.
[11:00] » So, that way we can just blanket that so they don't mess with the ordinance
[11:04] because someone will complain later on. I'm sure.
[11:06] » Yeah. And it and it says on the agenda I I should should have read it right off
[11:12] the it said amendment. It's amendment to the community center rental agreement.
[11:17] » Yeah. which that agreement is under an ordinance, but we're not changing the
[11:20] ordinance or changing the agreement under the ordinance. So, we should be
[11:23] good if someone wants to uh represent the the motion to to match
[11:29] the the changing of the community center
[11:33] rental agreement. >> So, can I amend my motion? Good.
[11:38] » Okay. I will amend my motion to say that we are
[11:45] um amending the contract for the community center.
[11:50] » I'll second that motion. >> All right. So, I have a motion, a second
[11:56] amended motion that we are amending the community center rental agreement, not
[12:02] the ordinance. So, any further discussion? I have a motion, a second on
[12:06] the floor. Is there any other discussion from the board or anything from uh team
[12:12] Barry? I have not. >> Yeah, it sounds like changing the hours
[12:15] will address the issues. So, I agree. >> Anything further, Mariam?
[12:22] » Nope. That should do it. >> Okay. Thank you. All right.
[12:26] Hearing no further discussion. All in favor of approving the amendment to the
[12:31] community center rental agreement signify by saying I.
[12:34] » I. and I am an in motion carries 30. In your packet, you were submitting an
[12:41] excavation permit for Frontier Communications. We sent out to Julia to
[12:46] ask ask some additional questions just because of the location. I sent that to
[12:51] you this morning. Um said the work will take 10 to 20
[12:56] minutes. So, it's not a very long segment of work. They will however have
[13:02] to due to the width of the road being 12
[13:06] feet, they'll have to shut down temporarily the road closure. Um
[13:11] shouldn't take all that long. They won't take up any parking spots. Um and no
[13:16] sidewalk will be utilized. So first let's get a motion on the floor. Is
[13:20] there a motion to approve the frontier communications excavation permit for the
[13:25] Washington District subs? >> Second.
[13:28] » All right. I have a motion a second. Is there any further discussion or
[13:31] questions regarding this particular event?
[13:33] » So when they put the start completion date that completion date is project
[13:38] overall not the uh specific excavation
[13:44] » excavation they're doing that correct? >> I think it's the specific excavation
[13:48] they're doing. They just didn't know the timeline yet. They wanted to point out
[13:53] and it's going to take more than 20 minutes to do the whole project. It's
[13:56] just they're only going to close the street. Yep.
[13:59] » Between 10. >> Just clarifying this isn't going to be a
[14:02] blanket. We're closing the street as is. This is for the specific thing.
[14:06] » Specific thing. >> Okay.
[14:08] » And they have to coordinate with us when that's going to happen.
[14:10] » Okay. >> And then we can specify that as well
[14:13] that they need to give us at least a week notice or or something so we can
[14:18] notify businesses. >> Yeah.
[14:20] » It's not going to conflict with anything that we might have going on.
[14:23] » Yeah. >> So,
[14:24] » yeah, I'll communicate that. Can I ask how part of Washington Street it is?
[14:27] It's I mean >> is it right by the business of the
[14:30] courthouse or is it okay >> which is why I
[14:32] » Washington that whole little area. Yeah. >> Yeah.
[14:36] » Which didn't know how soon they was going to start this. Not that way. We
[14:40] have a big festival getting ready >> which that's why we put it in the permit
[14:44] to avoid those states. >> Yeah.
[14:45] » So that's good.
[14:48] » Any further discussion or questions regarding the submitted activation
[14:52] permit for Frontier Communications? >> No.
[14:55] » All right. Hearing none. All in favor of approving signify by saying I
[14:58] » I >> and I motion carries.
[15:02] Next item of bid or next item of business is going to be the uh proposed
[15:10] 25. It's the 2026 trash pickup bid publication that's going to go out if
[15:16] approved. Uh this is the public notification discussed
[15:20] in the recent council meeting. Mar, you want to um actually let's get a motion
[15:26] on the floor first. Is there a motion to approve the uh advertisement for bids
[15:31] for the city of Deli trash and recycle pickup services?
[15:34] » So >> second.
[15:36] » All right, Marian, you want to kind of give us a quick refresh refreshing
[15:41] information on this >> early to the document now. Um,
[15:48] you have put together specifications for what you want in a trash collection
[15:53] service and that will be sent out for bids. It looks like the advertisement uh
[15:58] is that already been submitted for this week.
[16:04] » Yeah. Next Wednesday, correct?
[16:08] » Okay. >> Yeah, because we wouldn't have met the
[16:10] deadline. So, >> okay. Yeah, that's what I was wasn't
[16:13] sure about. >> Next Wednesday. I think I read it for
[16:16] two weeks. >> Mhm. And I think that this is pretty
[16:20] close. You just made some adjustments to what your specifications wanted, what
[16:24] you wanted for specifications for the this contract.
[16:29] » Correct. Otherwise >> spoke with Aaron Lion with three
[16:32] superintendent and there were some just some small changes from what we did
[16:36] in 2022. >> That was u coordinated through
[16:42] um the previous contract and just some
[16:46] things that I think it was dumpster size or the container size and some small
[16:50] thing and number of houses obviously has changed. So some small items that need
[16:54] to go into this proposal. And so when they s submit their bids,
[17:00] their bids just need to be compliant with your your uh request for
[17:04] specifications. >> Correct. And those bid the bid package
[17:07] can be found on the city of Deli website. It's going to be under the uh
[17:12] street department section that's under trash and recycle. That link will be
[17:17] included. It's it's on the the public notice that'll be going out.
