[2:31] Okay. Like to call to order the uh
regular council meeting for the town of
[2:34] Dbury for Monday, December 15th. Uh the
time is 5:00. Exactly.
[2:47] Uh first item
adopt the agenda as amended.
[2:54] » I move that council adopt the agenda as
amended. We need to add an item
[2:59] enclosed. I think would be 12.4.
Is there something we would be calling
[3:07] » trade vision discussions
>> trade vision discussions
[3:14] to vote?
All in favor
[3:19] close.
So car
[3:33] so I don't think we have any
delegations. Um to move on to uh four on
[3:37] the agenda which is the adoption of
minutes from November 25th, 2025 regular
[3:41] council meeting.
[3:46] Move to adopt the November 25th, 2025
council regular council meeting minutes
[3:54] as presented.
[3:57] All in favor?
[4:01] Opposed?
So car
[4:12] on to the CEO report.
Everyone's had time to review that.
[4:21] Can I get a motion for the CA report?
[4:27] I move that uh council accept the CAO
report this information.
[4:32] Okay, open up the floor to debate. There
any questions, comments?
[4:47] » Okay. Uh, I know this question can't
probably be answered here tonight
[4:52] because I don't think anyone from BO is
here, but um, did we actually pull over
[4:57] a gentleman going 99 kilometers an hour
in a km hour zone on 20th Avenue towards
[5:04] Highway 582.
How do you get to that speed in that
[5:08] section? I get it. I know there's no
answer. I'm just bringing it to to light
[5:13] the amount of speed that this gentleman
was traveling at or I shouldn't say
[5:18] gentleman. I don't know. Uh this person
I was kind of shocked by the sheer
[5:24] number of violations that there were.
[5:30] there any other
>> just maybe it's more appropriate for the
[5:37] protective services third quarter
report.
[5:41] Uh no that's where we're at right. So,
um I noticed that the
[5:47] the there's tickets being
included in the jurisdiction between the
[5:52] east side boundary and 2A. Um is that
part of our jurisdiction? Maybe that's
[5:59] something that
[6:04] » I would wager that because we can
perform moving violations. We may be
[6:08] authorized under the traffic safety act
too, but generally we stay in the
[6:11] boundary. Now, if the call began inside
our boundary and then we had to pursue
[6:15] them outward, then it becomes a
provincial ticket that we would then
[6:19] hand over to the province and they would
collect in fine revenue and things of
[6:23] that nature as well. But we're still
keeping the road safe from speeders
[6:26] either way. So,
>> maybe that's something we can find out
[6:29] whether or not these locations are where
the stop was initiated or where the stop
[6:33] actually found out.
Um
[6:40] um and it looks like the grouping of
tickets are on 582
[6:48] um right by if it's where they are
stopped and ticketed. That's right by
[6:55] the um the west the west side there by
those acreages. Um that looks like the
[7:02] strongest
uh number of ticketing and also then
[7:07] going down the hill by on 582 towards
the stop sign.
[7:13] So the thought crossed my mind to reduce
the speeding. Is it worth considering a
[7:19] speed radar flashing sign for town with
placement in primary violation areas?
[7:25] You know, how much do they cost? Um I
see it in some towns where they've uh
[7:31] you know, you're going
one kilometer over slow down or
[7:37] whatever. I mean, something that will
help reduce the number of tickets that
[7:42] are being made and whether that actually
happens when you have those signs. Is
[7:48] there the basis for slowing people down
because of it?
[7:56] » Certainly, there's always the argument
for preventative features like comic
[8:00] signs like that. The question becomes um
do you want to have that amended and
[8:07] added into the budget based on costing
in the first quarter once we go to the
[8:11] final round of amendments before passing
our tax bylaw? Do you want to talk with
[8:15] your citizenry on what kinds of other
traffic calming ideas they may want you
[8:20] to consider? You don't have to open up
the whole can of worms now that we've
[8:23] discussed it publicly. If everyone who's
watching knows that there is not
[8:26] actually a radar taking a photo of you,
will it continue to be effective? The
[8:31] flashing sites with the speed that
changes though uh definitely have a
[8:35] calming effect on my hippie foot. Um so
I would imagine for all human that it
[8:39] may also work for others. Yes. Um
administration can look into it however
[8:44] you like us.
I would think using the resources that
[8:48] we have in place with our enforcement
officers already focusing their efforts
[8:52] there might just be enough to on those
key areas.
[8:57] » Okay. And if I mean if it's something
that can be considered in the future, it
[9:03] doesn't have to be immediate. Just I'm
just throwing it out there as a as a
[9:07] thought.
>> Given the nature of 582, I think that's
[9:11] where we're going to see a lot of our
worst offenders, right?
[9:19] Yeah, I think when I see the speed
limits that people are achieving um on
[9:24] four of them being pulled over and
ticketed uh we tried the warning thing
[9:29] and it um it really fell short and uh
you know was instructed as well as the
[9:35] RCMP focus was stop the education and
start ticketing and if it gets expensive
[9:40] enough maybe they'll slow down. We don't
people injured on our streets. 100
[9:45] kilometers an hour in town is just
absolutely unacceptable. I find myself
[9:51] going too slow sometimes a little too.
Anyway, I can't imagine doing 100 down
[9:56] 20. That's just
unacceptable.
[10:02] Any further comments on the CEO report?
No. Okay. To a vote. All in favor?
[10:12] opposed.
So carried
[10:18] takes us on to item number seven.
[10:22] Bylaws and policies
7.1 is repealing bylaw 2025-18.
[10:33] Everybody had a chance to review that.
Sorry. Go ahead. Sure. Thank you.
[10:39] Uh, I move the council grant first
reading to repealing bylaw 2025-18.
[10:46] » All in favor?
[10:50] » Oh, have you already?
>> No, that's fine. Yeah.
[10:53] » Good.
>> Um, just a question. Will this include
[10:58] doortodoor sales licensing?
>> Yeah.
[11:03] » If it's a business town.
Okay. The the sorry councelor Kwans the
[11:09] only way that it may not is if hawker
peddler licensing is expressly provided
[11:13] for as a requirement in the land use
bylaw where it may sometimes show up in
[11:17] municipalities but I'm getting the
signal from staff it's not there. So yes
[11:20] the hawker pendler license requirement
also goes away. People are free to come
[11:26] and do business in Dsbury without the
extra administrative step as per the
[11:31] request of council.
So just a question, will this have some
[11:37] unintended consequences of a plethora of
unwelcome doortodoor sales people
[11:44] targeting our town?
>> I seem to get those anyway, but that's I
[11:49] would say that's a possibility.
[11:53] » Hard to gauge is the administration's
response.
[11:59] » Um I I agree. I had one in my yesterday.
I asked for a business license, they
[12:04] could not provide it. So the the issue
we have with business licenses, I see
[12:09] people in town paving and doing all
kinds of stuff without um I think this
[12:13] council can certainly very quickly come
back and create uh something because my
[12:18] question too was uh this should be an
advantage for our local uh merchants. I
[12:24] think we should probably still continue
on getting the bylaw passed if that's
[12:27] the will. Um, but we can we can bring
back that if you're from out of town,
[12:32] uh, you certainly can require licensing.
Um, and that's that's up to council to
[12:37] decide and and I would, uh, I would
recommend that we do that. Um, that
[12:42] gives our businesses a little bit of an
advantage, but uh, I don't I don't know
[12:47] how people are controlling the
non-licensing. Um,
[12:52] as the mayor said, they just show up.
We could come up with a more targeted
[12:57] bylaw that covers that, I'm sure.
>> And I don't mind passing this like I'm
[13:03] in favor of passing it now.
>> Just just being attentive to what's
[13:08] actually happening on this back. Thanks.
>> Any other questions or comments? I
[13:15] apologize for jumping into the vote on
that. Sorry. Let's find out.
[13:20] Oh, okay. All in favor?
Opposed? Okay.
[13:29] » And uh I move the council grant second
reading to repealing bylaw 2025-18.
[13:37] » And I'll just make sure I don't repeat
the same mistake. There any comments or
[13:40] concerns here?
[13:44] » I had an editing
just a few editing uh questions with it.
[13:51] page 22 of my
is that the right one 22
[14:00] that's that is the new by
okay um
[14:06] where it talks about uh
after the second whereas
[14:14] take out the following whereas we have
too many where's
[14:19] I
[14:21] If you can find that. I see I see two.
Normally you saying there's a third on
[14:26] your copy.
>> No, the second line.
[14:32] » Got
um that's one editing uh suggestion I
[14:37] have.
And then
[14:41] also in that sentence to read that have
become obsolete. And it says
[14:49] become
[14:53] ineffectual
[14:58] changed.
Where is that at? I'm sorry.
[15:10] It says it the way it's supposed to now
that have become ineffectual or no
[15:15] longer aligned.
That's okay. I I thought there was a
[15:19] word obsolete in there. Um
and
[15:28] that's all. Thank you.
So, how do we handle it?
[15:35] Can you restate the that you're looking
for
[15:37] » just the whereas
>> second paragraph of whereas there is
[15:41] whereas twice in a row so it's just a
>> typographical we can catch that in the
[15:46] copy or hang on a second please miss
back feel free to use the microphone
[15:51] » thank you chair the second whereas and
then doing it now therefore that's
[15:55] common structure for bylaw writing I
know that grammatically it doesn't make
[15:59] a whole lot of sense but that's the
common structure
[16:03] » sure thank you for the clarification
[16:13] Anything further on the second reading?
>> No. Okay. All in favor?
[16:21] » Opposed?
Okay. So car, pardon me. No, it's not
[16:25] carried yet. Pardon me.
unanimous.
[16:30] » Uh so I do I move do it or just um I
will move then to unanimous consent to
[16:36] proceed to the third reading of
repealing bylaw 2025-18.
[16:45] » Okay. All in favor?
[16:51] » Okay. Okay. And I move that council
grant third and final reading to
[16:54] repealing bylaw 2025-18.
[16:59] Any further comments, questions? No.
All in favor?
[17:06] » Opposed?
So carried
[17:22] And that brings us to item 7.2 on the
agenda, which is rates, fees, and fines
[17:25] bylaw 2025-19.
[17:40] Councelor Murray, could I get a motion?
I move that the council grant first
[17:47] reading to raise fees and fines bylaw
2025-19.
[17:52] » Thank you.
>> Is there comments or concerns? Open up
[17:56] the floor to debate.
[18:01] Just one probably still possible to
change it. Uh number eight on the repeal
[18:08] the following bylaw are hereby repealed
and just put the plural on that by the
[18:15] number
one.
[18:20] » Sorry. Can you restate that nor?
>> Yeah. Number eight, page um
[18:26] 27
repeal the following following by law
[18:32] are hereby

[19:01] Opposed?
Okay.
[19:07] Move that the council grant second
reading the rates, fees, and fines bylaw
[19:12] 22025-19.
[19:17] Anything further?
Okay. All in favor?
[19:23] Opposed?
[19:28] I move the council grant unanimous
consent to proceed to third and final
[19:32] reading of the rates, fees, and fines
bylaw 2025-19.
[19:39] » All in favor?
[19:43] Opposed?
[19:48] I move the council grant third and final
reading to the rates, fees, and fines
[19:52] bylaw 2025-19.
[19:58] All in favored.
[20:04] So carried.
[20:20] It takes us to item 7.3 on the agenda,
which is utility charges bylaw 2025-20.
[20:34] » I move that council grant first reading
to utility charges bylaw 2025-20.
[20:42] Thank you. We'll open up the floor to
debate. Questions, comments?
[20:50] Okay. Put two vote then. All in favor?
[21:00] I move the council grant second reading

[21:51] All those in favor
[21:55] opposed.
So carried.
[22:00] » Thank you very much for those comments.
[22:21] Okay, that takes us to item eight on the
agenda, which is uh new business. Uh
[22:26] item 8-1, accessibility parking
allocation request.
[22:33] I will uh turn that over to my director
of public works, Greg Fox.
[22:43] Thank you, Council. Um we've had a
request from a part from a resident to
[22:48] uh apply a accessibility parking space
in front of the home. This one's down in
[22:53] Valer Roa Drive number six. Uh just in
from the corner of the the subdivision
[22:59] entrance. Um administration doesn't have
any concerns with this request at this
[23:04] time. Happy to ask answer any questions
>> and I'm understanding this is a
[23:10] designated street parking space.
Yeah, the applicant or the requesttor um
[23:16] is mobility impaired and so have access
for the handy bus and such to be able to
[23:22] to come in and park. Um they've asked
for this parking spot. According to the
[23:26] bylaw, this is council's jurisdiction
for traffic control measures. Um so
[23:30] administration sort of receives requests
and brings them directly to you. So
[23:36] » okay,
is there comments or questions? We'll
[23:39] get the motion afterwards.
[23:42] I'm going to talk about it, but go ahead
because I just got off the phone and I
[23:46] don't think I have as much information
as you do
[23:49] on that. I'd like to read a statement.
Um, at first, I mean, it's important to
[23:57] get this request right. It's a sensitive
issue. Um and uh it may be useful to
[24:04] develop a policy to guide applicants
applications for individualized
[24:08] residential accessibility parking unless
we already have one. Maybe we do.
[24:16] Do we have one?
>> No. No formal policy exists. This is
[24:21] just what we've been using as word so
far.
[24:23] » Okay. So, uh, consideration of setting a
precedent for individual residential
[24:30] accessibility parking around town. Make
sure it's from pinto pin, for example,
[24:35] rather than hedge or tree or fence
feature to feature as there are
[24:40] potentially a property struggles
happening between neighbors, not saying
[24:45] that there is here. Um, have neighbors
needs or impact been considered the
[24:51] neighborhood such as a neighbor's need
also for accessibility parking or how
[24:56] the bus door lines up with the resident
sidewalk etc. Uh what are all the issues
[25:02] behind the request and in in a tight
parking area which that is I I lived in
[25:08] this residence actually. Um in a tight
parking area what impact will it have on
[25:14] the neighborhood? revisers, we guess.
Um, since there's no parking available
[25:20] there for those who don't have a
handicap, does that put pressure more on
[25:26] a tight uh tight parking area? And what
happens when they move and no
[25:32] accessibility is needed for that
resident again? Um, these are issues
[25:37] that may arise if other requests are
made. Um, and maybe it's not a precedent
[25:43] already being set, but if it is, um, I'm
just wondering how it will affect if we
[25:48] have more and more wanting to access and
their front space being designated as as
[25:57] handicapped and and I'm not sure what
the alternative is. Carry on as they've
[26:02] been doing, but uh, that's what I'd like
to put on the table.
[26:06] » Question for Director Fox through the
CEO. Um, how many of these do we
[26:10] currently have in town?
[26:14] » I'm not familiar with the quantity that
we have around town, but I do know that
[26:17] it has been done previously. There's an
example on the block just to the north
[26:23] of us here where the resident has a
wheelchair signs put up because they are
[26:27] handicapped resident. Um, so like I say,
the bylaw just sort of stipulates that
[26:32] this is council's jurisdiction and we
just bring the information forward to
[26:39] if council wanted to u administration
together something that ties into or
[26:45] shoots off of our traffic by law, it
could be done. Um my understanding in
[26:49] practice is that we typically cannot
designate a parking spot like that of
[26:54] that nature in front of a personal
residence or private residence
[26:57] exclusively for that person. I think the
practice is that anybody who has a
[27:01] placard can use it and it would be there
for the duration of the resident who
[27:05] holds the placard living in that
residence. Afterwards it can go back
[27:08] from blue to yellow or be blasted off.
But it certainly would be convenient for
[27:12] them to know that there is a reserved
set of space in front of their residents
[27:15] for community transportation that's
specific to their needs um can park and
[27:20] access. So these are factors you could
consider um more formally. I mean we
[27:27] could do a policy or it could become
some sort of subset of regulations
[27:30] within the traffic bylaw as well. Either
or one is stronger than the other as an
[27:34] instrument. I would say consider whether
you want to create a positive obligation
[27:38] to give the space as long as certain
criteria are met so that there's some
[27:42] consistency for the applicants who are
disadvantaged mobility wise that want to
[27:47] know for sure that this isn't going to
become a big debate about whether the
[27:50] neighbors can trump them based on you
know but we've seen other
[27:53] characteristics come in under appeal for
for various things. So it's council's
[27:58] intention to try to draft a policy that
iners to the benefit of the applicant.
[28:02] Is that what I'm understanding? Yeah.
>> Okay.
[28:07] So, we can work on something like that
if it's the wish of council. Just give
[28:10] me a motion and direct us to do so and
we can talk about timelines and
[28:14] components and criteria. But today, yes
or no under the current authority you
[28:18] have would also be helpful and then we
can formalize it a little better. What
[28:22] are your thoughts?
>> Um, I have a couple concerns. One is
[28:26] that there's, as Norm maybe sort of
alluded to, is there's more to this
[28:30] issue than than just the, you know,
having a designated
[28:34] park for a disabled person. Um,
but I would be open to considering as
[28:41] long as it's clear that that spot is for
any disabled person, not for the
[28:44] homeowner that lives there. Um,
specifically, um, because we don't do
[28:48] designated parking on streets for
residents. Um those spots are available
[28:53] to anyone who chooses to park their
first come first serve. Um this would
[28:57] just be a handicap disabled first come
first serve. I guess in this case
[29:07] » I I think uh I know councelor Mah about
to go. I would just say that I think we
[29:11] would certainly codify the current
practice in writing so that it's clear
[29:14] that it's for anyone but that's where
that spot happens to be for now.
[29:20] » Motion for that.
[29:24] Um, just before I got council here
tonight, I got a call from the next door
[29:29] neighbor to this applicant. And
apparently it's been a an ongoing fight
[29:36] with parking back and forth as of all of
Ala's very tight friend. um parking. Um
[29:46] apparently the the applicant won't let
anybody park in front of this house,
[29:51] including his own um
um guests, they come to his house, so
[29:58] they park in front of the neighbors. So,
it's an ongoing fight with like four or
[30:04] five neighbors down there from what I
understand.
[30:07] And now he's going to use this as a
trump card to stop anybody.
[30:14] So I think we need to make a clear
clear
[30:21] policy on if you have a handicap like
Chris said you have an endap sticker you
[30:26] can park there it's not owned by the
person that owns the house
[30:33] that's just my comments from the
neighbors. And the other thing is too is
[30:38] for building permits. We have we're on
four houses.
[30:44] We interview all the neighbors and see
what they think of it.
[30:49] It's a valid point. It might require
some
[30:53] consultation. I guess put well with
permitting for building structures and
[30:58] that sort of thing. So, if we're going
to make a a designated parking spot in
[31:03] front of one person's house, I think all
the neighbors should be aware of it
[31:06] before it happens.
>> Any other thoughts? I'd like to hear
[31:10] from some of the other council.
[31:16] » Cars parked in front of my house all the
time. I haven't done a lot. It's big and
[31:20] I get pissed off every time someone is
parked in front because they use it for
[31:24] parallel parking practice all the time.
So, I come home and there's people
[31:28] parallel parking. They love it. They
just love my spot. But it's uh yeah, I
[31:33] think there needs to be more
information. Like I don't want to say I
[31:36] don't believe this person or anything
like that. Is this like all I have is
[31:40] this person requesting this right now.
This is all been substantiated. They use
[31:44] the handy bus all the time. Like this is
the level of their mobility or are we
[31:49] setting a precedent to Yeah. Neighbors
could just get this willy-nilly. I don't
[31:55] I don't see any other information.
requesting a spot. So,
[32:02] » and yeah, there if there's people having
an issue with it and it's very tight.
[32:07] Um,
>> that that's an issue to me.
[32:14] » So, I I'm kind of coming at it from the
other side. Uh we deal with some
[32:18] mobility issues and uh the um
handicapped or or disability parking
[32:27] spots uh definitely uh serve a great
purpose. Uh I do agree that it should
[32:35] not be limited to one person like that
only one person can park there. If if it
[32:41] if it is accepted, it is designated as a
disabled or or I don't know that we use
[32:48] I guess I don't know. Um but that it is
very clear that it is not a personal
[32:57] parking spot for one individual. It is
designated as for handicap. Um, but
[33:04] again, uh, as councelor Lambert said,
we're we're coming at this with very
[33:10] little information. I don't I don't know
anything about the level of of of
[33:16] mobility and uh, the degree at which um,
it's it's a tough decision to make
[33:24] without having more facts. I guess for
me,
[33:28] I agree. I think we've got about a
quarter of the picture that we need to
[33:32] see to make a decision on this.
Anyone disagree?
[33:39] » I would like that.
I move that uh administration
[33:45] um take this discussion and develop some
parameters around
[33:53] a parking space such as this.
Is that too big? Okay.
[34:01] » Any further debate on the motion is put
forward?
[34:05] » We did. Yeah. Just his motion, right? We
didn't make
[34:08] » No, we haven't made any others. Okay. Uh
all in favor of the motion
[34:15] opposed.
So carried.
[34:22] Okay. Item 8.2 is the 2026 capital
budget.
[34:35] Somebody put forward a motion.
[34:47] » Okay. Yes, please.
I'd move to adopt the 2026 capital
[34:54] budget as presented totaling an
estimated amount of 1 million314,000
[35:00] and funded from the following sources.
Operations 36,18
[35:08] reserves
619,21
[35:14] and provincial grants 553,500
and other grants 105,191.
[35:23] Okay, I'll open the floor up to debate,
comments, questions if there are any.
[35:37] Okay, go ahead.
Um,
[35:44] page 62.
Hope that's still the same page
[35:52] on the virtual machine server upgrade.
Has a grant funding source been pursued?
[36:03] PA message for these.
[36:09] » Thank you. Um
there we haven't pursued a grant for
[36:14] this there. You could always use the
CCBF grant or the um LGF grant
[36:22] would likely qualify.
Um however,
[36:28] typically
um those grant funds are saved for road
[36:34] projects
um rather than
[36:39] and like heavy equipment if required
rather than um server upgrades.
[36:48] I was just thinking there should be some
kind of a technical grant available,
[36:53] technology upgrades, etc. that doesn't
take away from our roads and stuff
[37:01] mindset.
[37:06] » There's no grant that I'm aware that
would cover that unfortunately.
[37:13] » Okay. Anything further?
[37:20] Okay,
>> got another one. Sorry.
[37:26] » Turn your mic on.
>> I'm not sorry. Oh. Um on number page 64.
[37:38] Um
the deferral impact. Does this crossing
[37:42] need crossing arms as is mentioned?
Uh would just lights be suitable for how
[37:49] infrequently a train runs this crossing?
For example, 582 crossing doesn't have
[37:55] arms. And there was just a mention of
crossing arms at the bottom of that uh
[38:00] title deferral impact. It says of
crossing arms and legs. I'm just
[38:06] wondering if we're considering the whole
shooting or not.
[38:15] » To the best of my knowledge, the the
gates come with the package when you
[38:20] pull the stop sign out. We can double
check that in our conversations with
[38:23] CPKC once we get going in that dialogue.
But I have always understood it that
[38:28] that's a full suite of uh measures that
come together and that is what you have
[38:33] to have in place in exchange for putting
out the stop sign.
[38:37] But we can we can double check on it.
>> Yeah, if if there was a less costly
[38:43] version obviously would like to explore
that um because the price tag for that
[38:47] is fairly steep. So yeah,
thank you councelor Quans. That's it.
[38:54] Okay. Anything else?
[38:58] Okay. Um, all in favor?
[39:06] Okay. So, carried.
[39:14] Item 8.3 is the 2026 to 2030 multi-year
capital plan.
[39:28] I move to adopt the 2026 2030 multi-year
capital plan.
[39:36] Open up the floor to debate, comments,
questions.
[39:43] No. Okay. To vote then. All in favor?
[39:51] Opposed.
Okay. It's okay.
[39:58] That brings us to item 8.4, which is the
2026 operating budget.
[40:09] You want to push for
[40:26] the 207
2029 multi-year operating plan as
[40:31] presented.
[40:36] » We are on
>> Oh, sorry.
[40:39] » 8.4 the operating budget, right?
[40:43] to approve the 2026 operating budget
with the total revenues before the
[40:48] municipal tax levy of 7,882,235
[40:53] and a total expenditures of
13,252
[41:00] $100,86.
[41:12] » Yep. That was good. Yeah, it's fine. Uh,
and I'm going to add a second.
[41:17] » Yeah. Do that first to forgo the
council.
[41:20] » Yeah. Yeah. No. Um, I'd like to add to
that motion with a second that is to
[41:24] forego the cost of living adjustment for
the 2026 year for council renumeration.
[41:30] » Okay.
[41:40] » To the chair. Did you need two motions
there?
[41:43] » Okay.
>> Okay. So, we'll do it separately.
[41:45] » Yeah. So, just just pull your motion
back if you can and redo it. Yeah.
[41:54] » Yeah. Great.
[42:05] » Excellent. Uh I think we debated this
quite a bit, but I'll just ask if
[42:09] there's any other questions or comments
around this motion before we ahead. No.
[42:13] Okay. So, all in favor?
Opposed.
[42:18] Okay.
[42:21] Part two to approve the 2026 operating
budget total revenues before the musical
[42:27] tax levy 7,82,235
[42:32] and totales of 13,252,00
[42:45] questions or comments around
[42:48] No. Okay. All in favored.
[42:56] So carried.
[43:03] And that takes us to item 8.5, which is
the 2027 to 2029 multi-year operating
[43:08] plan.
[43:14] I move to adopt the 2027 to 2029
multi-year operating plan as presented.
[43:21] Open the floor to debate.
[43:29] Oh, sorry.
[43:34] We didn't really get to discuss this
much
[43:39] before.
We spent a lot of time on budget stuff,
[43:43] but we didn't really look into this.
>> It was there review, but we didn't spend
[43:48] a lot of time.
>> Right.
[43:54] » Just so everybody's aware, I don't know.
We spent enough time on it. That's for
[43:58] sure.
[44:04] So, just for council's comfort, um the
multi-year operating plan, um we just
[44:11] have to have council review it and
update it each year. You could look at
[44:16] it at any time in the new year and it
doesn't it does not form part of the
[44:22] budget. So, there's nothing in 27 to 29
that we can um that we could go ahead
[44:29] and um spend
When it comes to 2027 budget, that'll be
[44:35] council's perview to adopt a new budget
year. And it and most likely, I've never
[44:40] seen them equal the multi-year operating
plan. So, at that time, you'll get um
[44:46] total say over what the budget looks
like. And for the most part, the
[44:52] operating plan is um
we start with the current year budget
[44:57] and then add a layer of inflationary
adjustments on the cost. So um the
[45:06] multi-year plan
[45:12] while it looks maybe high as far as the
municipal tax that he required, there
[45:17] would be other adjustments when we
actually into the 2027 budgeting that
[45:21] would impact that.
[45:26] » I just want to say thanks for the
clarification.
[45:29] » So, it' be fair to say that this is
basically a forecast.
[45:33] » Correct.
>> Okay. Thank you.
[45:38] Okay. Any other comments or concerns?
No. Okay. Vote. All in favor?
[45:47] Opposed?
So carried.
[45:54] Okay, that brings us to item nine, which
is council reports.
[46:00] Everybody had a chance to review those.
Okay,
[46:06] we get a motion on that one. Sure. Thank
you.
[46:10] I'd like to make a motion to accept the
December 15, 2025 council reports as
[46:15] information.
Are there any questions on the two
[46:20] reports?
>> Should the others that didn't submit a
[46:24] report report?
[46:28] Verbal
council members will each provide a
[46:33] verbal report.
[46:38] » Yeah, I have a MPC report and our plan
library report and the waste management
[46:46] for the Yeah, the waste report um the
NBC November 26, 2025
[46:55] Cher match days on his chair
as the vice chair uh three permits uh
[47:01] pass the main chain uh thing that we
voted on was the uh homeation dog
[47:09] uh was uh it was on
in a business shop and they wanted to
[47:17] move it to their home location. That was
approved and they amended condition six
[47:22] which was hours of operation will be
from 9 to 6 p.m.
[47:29] And that was the operational meeting as
well
[47:33] for the
mic
[47:41] and for the parkland library. Um
[47:49] decisions on investments were reviewed
twice a year $140,000 when investment
[47:54] portfolio
2026 board meeting dates were decided
[47:58] meeting will be at 10 a.m.
[48:03] They also updates on directors vehicles
and
[48:11] the municipal board gave updates on what
was happening in their library
[48:23] for the waste uh
the waste commission.
[48:30] There was talk about one of the things
that they talked specifically about was
[48:34] 23rd Street and just the ongoing
discussion of that because the other
[48:39] council was putting pressure on them to
not be able to use the road. So that was
[48:46] a big concern for them and we I let them
know that the new council is looking to
[48:52] be working with them. The um the dump is
a major if we don't allow them access
[48:58] they'll some other way and it will cost
us. So yeah, it's um that was a big
[49:05] discussion. We got their reports. The
Dun is doing very well. They have a lot
[49:08] of room and um we just voted on a wage
increase as well that passed.
[49:19] » Any other reports?
[49:25] » No, I had no committee meetings. just
the two workshops.
[49:32] I was also in NBC with Troy on those and
as well as we had a deact meeting, but
[49:38] it is mostly in camera.
[49:42] lots of good discussions on what's
possibly coming to town, but
[49:47] again
[49:52] uh I will add personally that um I
attend well I attended many of the same
[49:56] events that councelor Quans attended. Um
the country Christmas which I thought
[50:00] was an excellent excellent event was
well put together given the amount of
[50:04] leadup time that they had to to organize
all of that. thought it was a great and
[50:09] and worthwhile event. But I also had the
pleasure of participating in the uh CBKC
[50:14] uh Christmas train last week which I
thought was excellent. Um no, I did not
[50:20] get to pull the train whistle
unfortunately. Um but uh we excellent
[50:25] turnout. I thought um you know the the
railier was was quite full. They
[50:30] estimated our members to be around 900
people that had showed up in attendance.
[50:33] So that's in my opinion pretty strong
support for
[50:37] our little town. So, that's great. Um, I
will say that they do
[50:43] take account for very specific reasons.
So, we need to be mindful of that and
[50:46] make sure that we get out and support
these events because
[50:50] other towns are always vying for these
spots. So, bring your families out, come
[50:54] and support these events, make a
donation to the food bank if you have
[50:57] the ability to do so. Um, I know I did
that day, so I was happy to do it. Um,
[51:02] but yeah, great event. and uh got to
ride the train to Air Tree, which was an
[51:06] interesting experience.
And that was the last stop for a group
[51:11] of people that had been on there for I
think it was 57 shows was the number
[51:14] that I heard. So they they' done that
quite a few times by the time they got
[51:17] to see us. So
>> I'm sorry.
[51:20] » Yes, they all retired.
I'll just add to that. Uh I didn't
[51:24] attend the CPKC in an official capacity,
but I was there in the audience with my
[51:29] daughter and uh everyone I spoke to had
a great time. up on the edge of the
[51:34] train station balcony looking out over
the group and uh it was it was a lot of
[51:39] fun to be out there despite the cold and
I I agree. I think it was a great
[51:44] showing and I'd love to see just even
more.
[51:49] » Yeah, the amount of uh funds and and
food that they raise is incredible. I
[51:53] can't remember the exact numbers now,
but it was basically a million dollars a
[51:56] year and it was like I think
trying to remember the pounds of food. I
[52:02] think it was tons of food that they
raised if I recall the numbers
[52:05] correctly.
>> I saw it at one point. It was part of my
[52:07] speech, but the guy before me said it
also said cut off.
[52:11] So anyway, all right. Anything further
on council reports then?
[52:18] » Not on report. I just want to touch on
on what you said about the country
[52:22] Christmas. It was put on in a a very
short time and I think um it was very
[52:27] wellreceived. Uh the evening was good.
It was cold. Um But, uh, I I'm looking
[52:34] forward to next year being even better.
And I think, uh, we should just really
[52:38] publicly thank all of the volunteers
that that gave their time up to make
[52:42] that that happen. And I believe that's
what you were you you said. I'm just
[52:47] kind of piggybacking on you, but uh,
it was it was a great event and, uh, I'm
[52:53] looking forward to next year.
>> Yeah, I think the list of volunteers is
[52:56] probably a little too long to go into
here. We the we run out of time because
[53:01] there were a lot of people involved
including a whole bunch of people in
[53:04] this room. So I want to again just thank
everybody for their efforts. It's
[53:07] definitely a great event.
[53:11] All right. Um motion for this already
accepted. Yes. Thank you. So all in
[53:18] favor of accepting this uh reports these
reports information
[53:23] opposed.
Okay. So car.
[53:35] » Okay. We're on a correspondence and
information.
[53:41] Okay. If you would council questions,
I'd like to move to accept the
[53:46] correspondence for December 15, 2025's
information.
[53:51] » Are there any questions or comments? to
open up the floor to debate if any
[53:55] anything on any of the occasions that we
received.
[54:01] » Um curious that the uh midsize town
mayor caucus I was attended this meeting
[54:06] on behalf of of our mayor um and
recognizing our former mayor Mrs. Rhonda
[54:12] Hunter for her uh time spent with the
midsize town mayors as their chair. I'm
[54:18] wondering if this correspondence will be
shared with her beyond council.
[54:25] » Yes, we can forward a copy to her.
>> Excellent. Thank you.
[54:29] » Thank you.
>> Anything else, Quans?
[54:32] » And I I want to uh the correspondence
section of this uh agenda is very long.
[54:39] One of the longest I've ever seen
>> and has been a fair bit of comments.
[54:43] Most of that was from the RCMP
presentation
[54:47] and um I tried to wait through that as
much as I could. Um but I wanted to
[54:55] commend the RCMP for putting the data
that they have out to the public instead
[55:02] of uh just coming and saying, "Hey, we
want to be your police force." uh they
[55:08] actually put some uh you know long data
together and I just wanted to make that
[55:15] a public expression of appreciation for
the RCMP
[55:23] comments.
>> I've got two I'll start with a quick
[55:27] one. Um, similar to what councelor Quan
said, I've um I've been really happy to
[55:33] see a lot of correspondence in general u
from members of the community various
[55:38] entities, organizations, and I just I
guess I want to see that continue. I
[55:43] hope that it does. I like seeing open
discourse in, you know,
[55:49] accessible spaces and I think it uh I
think it bodess well. Um, and the second
[55:54] point is actually a curiosity of mine. I
was really intrigued by
[56:02] the letter from Just make sure I get the
name correct. Paige Murphy from the
[56:09] three minor hockey association regarding
uh the live barn streaming system for
[56:16] the arena.
Uh, at its core, I'm really intrigued by
[56:21] this. I think um I'd love to hear from
other members of council as well. Uh I
[56:28] know more than a little bit about
streaming platforms and I think that I
[56:34] looked at their website. I looked at
their various offerings to venues and I
[56:40] think it's a fascinating one. Um one
that I would want more information on
[56:44] certainly before any decisions would be
made. But uh I'm really curious if
[56:48] anyone has either experience with this
particular entity before through other
[56:54] venues. I know for example I don't have
a lot of experience when it comes to
[56:58] sporting events
only the the streaming element of it. So
[57:03] I was curious if anyone else has uh used
this platform, experienced it and if we
[57:07] could down the road get more information
about it.
[57:11] Yeah, I had some questions, concerns of
my own and maybe council Hong can can
[57:15] answer some of that, but it's, you know,
privacy issues, recording minors in
[57:19] public, stuff like that that kind of,
you know, bring the hairs up on the back
[57:22] of my neck a little bit. So,
>> so I think we're probably one of the
[57:27] last arenas to have it put in. Um, I
think it was probably
[57:33] five years ago. I was watching my nephew
play hockey in the air green ring
[57:38] through live barn. Um,
so it's it's been around for a long
[57:45] time. Like I say, I think we're probably
one of the last drinks to go in. I know
[57:51] the Colts were on it, but now they've
moved to another platform that the
[57:57] league is has kind of pushed them to
called Faux Sports, but that's a whole
[58:02] different ball game because they take
over your their their
[58:06] website, their web page. It's all mainly
now. The league's kind of taken that
[58:12] over, but Live Barn,
it's just on the ice. So, it's so
[58:20] grandpa can watch their grandkids and
you know I like I say I watched my
[58:24] nephew play hockey in air
>> so
[58:30] » I definitely see the belly of it as a as
a parent who couldn't always be there
[58:34] for hockey camps
>> and that's that's what a lot of the
[58:37] parents you know if one or more kids in
hockey one's in Silven Lake one's in air
[58:43] well then they can be watching on their
phone they can be watching like Silvin's
[58:47] got
and um and this one as well. Live barn.
[58:54] Um so that's primarily I think and and
aunts and uncles and whoever else want
[59:00] to watch it. Like I say, I I think we're
probably one of the last ar
[59:06] and it's it's a league thing. It's not
just
[59:10] we're bringing this as a streaming. It
goes through there's all sorts of
[59:16] leagues on it like from
[59:24] I think we should seriously look at
comm.
[59:32] » Yeah, I'd love to with the opportunity
to speak um and it was in the letter it
[59:37] was offered for um Dave Murphy to speak
with us in some sort of meeting and or
[59:43] the live barn team. Um I personally love
to hear I think there are valid privacy
[59:49] concerns as well as uh structural
concerns. Uh I believe the system's
[59:53] automated anytime anyone goes on the ice
by default, which seems very good on
[59:58] paper, but what about just public
skating? What about, you know, private
[1:00:03] event? What about when the ice isn't in
the arena? There are a lot of questions
[1:00:06] I have about how the system itself works
and how it could be set to benefit
[1:00:12] DSbury and memorial complex. I think
what is presented is accurate. It could
[1:00:19] come at essentially no cost to the town
with potentially significant benefit. Um
[1:00:26] I just think it would be I think we we
can't I would love to look into it.
[1:00:32] Okay. Or perhaps we could invite them to
come as a delegation to a future meeting
[1:00:37] if I may. Actually, councelor Mahome
council first. Sure. I just wanted to
[1:00:43] see if Amanda had any other thoughts on
this
[1:00:47] as you have kids in in minor hockey.
[1:01:00] » Yeah. So this is obviously outside my
role as CFO but as a parent um
[1:01:07] » that's
>> yeah as a parent and I have used like
[1:01:11] live farm before um the person watching
would pay a subscription and you'd be
[1:01:18] able to access it from your phone in
some sort of device. Um, and you are
[1:01:25] able to
go back a number of days and watch past
[1:01:30] events as well. So, let's say there was
like
[1:01:34] tryyous or that sort of thing that you
wanted to go back and watch or allow
[1:01:39] your child to see how their game went
and do like a playbyplay. Um,
[1:01:46] it is in
most arenas that you go to now. Um,
[1:01:57] Okay.
[1:02:02] I think uh for the community, it's
probably good, like Will said, to look
[1:02:06] into it, inviting members as a
delegation, how to explain to us some of
[1:02:11] the the security questions that you
have. I would like to watch my my
[1:02:16] grandchildren play and sometimes they're
they're in four different locations, so
[1:02:20] that's just selfish to me.
This would, you know, has to be good for
[1:02:24] the town, but I I think we ought to uh
at least have the delegation to explain
[1:02:30] and answer their questions.
Sounds good. Yeah, I think I think we
[1:02:34] just need to be cognizant of anything
like this that we put into a space,
[1:02:38] there are going to be some people that
have privacy concerns. So um
[1:02:45] so to that end with especially with the
new privacy legislation, our privacy
[1:02:48] coordinator would be doing privacy
impact assessment that would be required
[1:02:52] before anything and then there would
likely do some conversations with the
[1:02:57] provider, their privacy policy, um
conversations with the stakeholder
[1:03:02] groups to get their support for consent
to share that space and time when teams
[1:03:08] are playing. There is some
administrative leg work that would need
[1:03:11] to be done and perhaps the first group
you may want to chat with before you
[1:03:15] talk with Live Martin unless you
referring to them all as the Dinsbury
[1:03:18] Minor Hockey Association and just bring
them in and see if they've done their
[1:03:21] homework too because there's other
purveyors out there as councelor Mahome
[1:03:25] said the the Colts team uses a different
one um if we're paying for it depending
[1:03:29] on the cost there may be a procurement
policy requirement involved to get
[1:03:32] multiple codes I'm not sure um but also
in a quick conversation I had with the
[1:03:36] director who couldn't be here tonight
she's Well, unfortunate breaks before
[1:03:40] the holidays, but um the revenues
received from subscription may not
[1:03:45] necessarily cancel out the cost. Telus
would have to flip the switch, put the
[1:03:49] fiber back onto the building in order to
do that, but they have what's required
[1:03:53] there.
administration will be working to get in
[1:03:57] touch with Telus um and then have that
conversation present I guess a more
[1:04:02] detailed breakdown in the new year on
what those costs would be how this stuff
[1:04:07] works and then which community
stakeholder group should be consulted
[1:04:10] and what privacy requirements we would
have to meet
[1:04:15] I guess maybe so two things number one
I'm sorry the director's unwell pass
[1:04:20] along our associate feels better Um but
uh yeah, I think this is something for
[1:04:25] future consideration. Um we can perhaps
as a first step have the association
[1:04:31] come in and speak to it and then we can
go from there and do our our due
[1:04:35] diligence.
[1:04:39] » Sorry, let's see.
Uh this is this is a world I live in on
[1:04:43] a daily basis with postsecary sport. Um,
and so there's a lot of areas uh that
[1:04:49] our CA has mentioned already that I
think need to be addressed by our our
[1:04:54] people that deal with privacy. Um, the
key thing would be that with this one, I
[1:04:59] assume it's like the majority of them,
you can um set up the times when it is
[1:05:04] in session and out of session. Um, and
uh, but that will be very important that
[1:05:10] it would be controlled by a party that
is recognizing that, which would likely
[1:05:15] be administration
um setting those timelines uh because in
[1:05:20] the past in particular with this one uh
there there have been times when it's
[1:05:24] been inadvertently videoing uh an arena
and then it became a privacy thing
[1:05:30] because those people that were using the
arena at that time did not sign any
[1:05:35] documentation to be used. Um so yeah
there be things as as our CEO is
[1:05:41] preference but um this is of this time
and age and we need to be considering
[1:05:47] something whether it's live bar or some
other alternative way
[1:05:54] any other comments around
[1:05:59] my curiosity of live barn the name of it
I think it comes from the farming
[1:06:04] community where they have cameras
looking at their cattle
[1:06:07] animals. Am I Am I correct?
>> Is that close? Barn is an old hockey
[1:06:13] term.
[1:06:18] » That's where he used to play.
>> Okay, I think we'll uh we'll digress and
[1:06:23] move on from this. It sounds like we've
exhausted all the discussion around it.
[1:06:26] Um there any other
correspondence anybody wants to address?
[1:06:32] No. Okay. All in favor of adopting the
information
[1:06:39] opposed.
So carried.
[1:06:45] That takes us on to question period
which is item 11. Um are there any
[1:06:51] questions from the
>> gallon?
[1:06:58] No, I wouldn't have any questions at
all.
[1:07:01] » Next.
>> I I got a few.
[1:07:07] » Thank you, mayor and council for giving
me the opportunity to to address you. Um
[1:07:12] I have a few things that I wanted to
say. One of the things that I found
[1:07:16] alarming in the statistics from
enforcement is the number of of uh uh
[1:07:23] warnings as opposed to the violation of
tickets. the warnings seriously
[1:07:28] outnumber the number of tickets given
and I think that maybe there needs to be
[1:07:33] a switch in that.
Um, as far as the business licenses and
[1:07:38] and diminishing or eliminating business
licenses, I'd be interested to know how
[1:07:42] council plans to monitor the business
enterprises that are operating in town.
[1:07:47] I think that you have crippled your
economic development officer in being
[1:07:52] able to do her job effectively. I think
that it is a disservice to the community
[1:07:57] to not have a accurate and adequate list
of what enterprises are operating in
[1:08:03] town. And I expect that we're going to
see people that are coming here that
[1:08:07] aren't licensed and that people here
will utilize enterprises that are not
[1:08:12] necessarily local businesses because of
that. My feeling.
[1:08:18] Um I'm extremely disappointed. Maybe I
should back up and I'll try a different
[1:08:23] way here. Um, I'm really pleased to see
that 17th Street Sidewalk was added to
[1:08:27] the uh capital budget. I appreciate
that. That was something that I brought
[1:08:31] forward last meeting and I appreciate
that that was included in the budget. I
[1:08:36] was disappointed that 19th Street wasn't
um um included. I don't even know if it
[1:08:43] was considered. Um, I do realize that
there are some complications associated
[1:08:47] with 19th Street, but I would have liked
to have heard some discussion as to why
[1:08:52] it wasn't included or why it was
overlooked. Um, that would have been a
[1:08:56] valuable thing for me be having brought
that forward. I'm extremely disappointed
[1:09:02] that the public wasn't g engaged and
given the opportunity to look at the
[1:09:06] budget, capital and operating budget. It
is now passed and I'm going to give you
[1:09:11] some examples. One of the things that
talks about in in the uh capital budget
[1:09:16] is lighting, LED lighting in the
complex. There's that complex is a big
[1:09:22] big facility and the arena was already
done last year. So, I'm wondering what
[1:09:27] part of the complex is is is getting the
new LED lighting because it doesn't give
[1:09:32] us anything like that in the background
or anything else. Um, in terms of
[1:09:37] reserves, I I appreciate that the
council has gone forward with a a
[1:09:42] capital budget where it isn't impacting
to a great degree the t taxation and tax
[1:09:49] taxes to the residents.
However,
[1:09:53] um, through the capital budget and the
operating budget, the reserves have been
[1:09:58] diminished by close to $850,000.
That's the future.
[1:10:05] and to be reduced by $850,000.
That's I'd have to do some calculating
[1:10:10] and and figuring, but how many street
sidewalks that is when you consider that
[1:10:15] the sidewalk was increased by $75,000
and part of that was out of reserves.
[1:10:20] 50,000 of that was out of reserves. It
it it it cripples your future. It really
[1:10:26] does. That's one example.
Um
[1:10:31] uh I I I I think that it would have been
really good opportunity for you to have
[1:10:38] brought this budget both budget to the
community to see let them look at it.
[1:10:44] Again, I'm extremely disappointed with
it that it wasn't brought to the
[1:10:47] community to have a look at and discuss.
Anybody that tells you that the survey
[1:10:52] that was done on the budget is and and
that was adequate is is is deceiving
[1:10:56] themselves.
uh survey is is superficial and and has
[1:11:01] nothing. These are the numbers that we
have to look at and I'm very
[1:11:04] disappointed that it was passed tonight.
Both of them are passed tonight. Thank
[1:11:08] you for your time.
>> Thank you.
[1:11:15] » Well, I have to say something too.
I don't come enough and I'll sit down
[1:11:22] first. I don't think I need the mic. Do
I need the mic?
[1:11:24] » Yes.
Does anybody not know who I am? I'm just
[1:11:28] kidding. This is Deb Pelchce, resident
Pittsburgh. Um, I haven't come to every
[1:11:34] meeting, but now I have another
question. Has the public ever been given
[1:11:39] the opportunity to input on the budget
in the past four years? Ever?
[1:11:44] » Yes.
>> Other than a survey,
[1:11:47] » we had public meetings before
>> and and who was told about that?
[1:11:55] Okay. You know what? It's really easy to
judge. Um, but no, I I feel that's been
[1:12:01] lacking in the 22 years I've moved back
and it's in my opinion. I don't know how
[1:12:06] you get through it all. Um, I know how
hard it is to get public engagement.
[1:12:11] So, I I filled out the survey. I didn't
do more. So, I'm guilty. But, I don't
[1:12:15] recall there being much effort in the
past either. Um, I actually had no
[1:12:20] questions, but now that we talked about
this handicap parking thing, I just have
[1:12:24] to add a comment on that. I do a lot of
home care and if every single senior in
[1:12:28] this town that had a home care pass
applied for a pass, we wouldn't have
[1:12:31] enough concrete.
I I don't disagree and I understand that
[1:12:36] there's a need, but I think if we start
stepping outside of commercial
[1:12:39] boundaries and people have the ability
to apply for a pass in front of their
[1:12:43] home, we're just giving them another
reason to fight. And there's there's not
[1:12:46] going to be any parking spots available
that aren't handicapped. If if every
[1:12:50] single person that had a card holder in
this town applied that has a residence.
[1:12:55] So, just keep that in mind. Um I I I
don't think it's a good idea
[1:13:01] personally. Um and that's it. I just
wanted to say hi and thanks so much and
[1:13:05] appreciate you guys being here.
Thank you.
[1:13:23] Okay. Um, I think we need a uh I think
we need a motion.
[1:13:27] » Yes, please. If you wouldn't mind. I
move that council go to close at 611.
[1:13:38] All in favor?
opposed.
[1:13:44] » So carried.
[1:13:52] » Excellent. Um we'll call the meeting
back to order at 7:24 p.m. Um we have
[1:13:57] one final piece of business that's on
the schedule, which is the uh proposed
[1:14:01] grant application.
And where do we go with that? Um,
[1:14:08] did you want to uh No. Okay.
[1:14:31] I would move that the council decline
the can expo grant opportunity to attend
[1:14:37] the handover
Germany in 2026 and the joint invest
[1:14:43] Alberta cape redear poly technic and the
trade mission.
[1:14:52] I'll open the floor to debate before we
vote. Is there any further comments on
[1:14:55] this or questions?
[1:15:00] No.
Okay. Uh all in favor of the motion to
[1:15:04] decline.
[1:15:08] Opposed.
So carried.
[1:15:13] Okay. That brings us
Thank you. uh to our final motion for
[1:15:19] the night which would be to adjourn.
>> I motion that we
[1:15:25] council or adjourns the meeting at 7:25.
[1:15:33] Okay. All in favor?
[1:15:39] So carjour.
