[0:48] I'm like his administrative assistance. Is he pay you extra for that? Yeah, all right. He's a pool boy. It works out even.

[1:04] All right, Tim, you're stuck.

[9:29] Can you hear me okay? Yeah, I get all of you. Good. How are you?

[9:33] Well, thank you.

[9:35] Oh, me, for do you hear me?

[9:38] I'm a visual yet, Tom.

[9:40] Here you are.

[9:42] You don't have your video on

[9:46] our video.

[9:49] How's that?

[9:50] Better.

[9:53] Jesus, my hair is white.

[9:57] You know all, Tom.

[9:58] I need a haircut.

[10:01] Come on.

[10:02] Be cool.

[10:04] You don't need a haircut, Vince.

[10:06] No, I said I got my own.

[10:08] That's nice.

[10:14] You don't look happy.

[10:30] Green hat?

[10:32] It's tough.

[10:51] It's like your frozen.

[11:14] Hi.

[11:21] Hi guys.

[11:22] Oh, I can't.

[11:25] Oh, I can't.

[11:28] Beautiful day, huh?

[11:30] Oh, I can't.

[11:33] Very nice.

[11:40] His video with us.

[11:41] You okay?

[11:53] Mike, Tim, she's not going to make it tonight.

[11:55] Now, how about Mickey?

[11:58] He should.

[12:02] I was only told about Michael.

[12:07] Me too.

[12:34] Oh boy.

[12:34] You know

[12:41] Mickey's coming, right?

[12:43] Okay.

[12:45] So he's winning for Beth and Mickey?

[12:47] Yes.

[12:51] I forwarded the Zoom information to Mark Wagner as well.

[13:10] I have some in a clock, but we'll give him a minute or two here.

[13:13] I

[13:22] mean, what's TCMC?

[13:27] What?

[13:28] How's it going?

[13:31] What?

[13:31] How's it going?

[13:34] Communally medical...

[13:35] What's going on over there?

[13:37] It's mechanical college.

[13:40] Oh yeah.

[13:41] It's probably as sons, Janet.

[13:44] It's...

[13:45] It's...

[13:45] Is it...

[13:47] Is it the right center?

[13:51] No.

[13:51] This is where they're going to be doctors.

[13:55] Oh, okay.

[13:56] I teach her.

[14:00] Please.

[14:08] Please.

[14:33] Here.

[14:52] Here's Ricky.

[15:17] All right, sorry, I had a little trouble. That's all right, I think. Trust me, I drove veto nuts all afternoon, trying to figure this out. I shouldn't just gave it to my son. He would have had it done in 30 seconds. I just said my daughter do it. That's the only way I got him up, right?

[15:36] I'm 703. I'm sure Beth will join in. Do we want to get started here?

[15:43] Let's, let's stand for the pleasure of the allegiance, please.

[15:49] Leg allegiance to the flag.

[15:51] The United States of America.

[15:54] The Republic for which it stands.

[15:56] A nation undergone indivisible with the independence.

[16:01] But I ask everybody to just stand for one moment for a moment of silence for George Floyd.

[16:07] I know it's a very tragic thing that happened.

[16:14] I'm sure that doesn't work.

[16:15] Maybe you give their condolences to Mr. Floyd.

[16:21] Thank you.

[16:22] Good day.

[16:24] Roll up, please.

[16:25] Some poster of material.

[16:27] Mr. Dempsey.

[16:46] Here.

[16:47] Mayor Burke.

[16:52] Of lament comment on agenda items.

[16:55] There are no public comments on agenda items.

[16:58] I will move.

[16:59] Number four is a motion to approve the minutes.

[17:02] I will look for a motion for approve the minutes.

[17:07] I'll make that motion.

[17:10] A second please.

[17:12] A second that.

[17:13] On the question,

[17:18] all in favor?

[17:20] Hi.

[17:20] I'm against the eyes habits.

[17:24] Take zero.

[17:26] We're five.

[17:26] The motion to approve and pay the open bills.

[17:29] I look for motion to pay to approve and pay the open bills.

[17:33] I'm going to make the motion.

[17:37] I can please.

[17:38] Second.

[17:40] Second.

[17:41] All in favor?

[17:42] On the question.

[17:42] I'm sorry.

[17:43] On the question.

[17:44] Hi.

[17:46] All in favor.

[17:47] All right. All right.

[17:49] All right.

[17:51] Okay.

[17:52] Thank you.

[17:54] Peter.

[17:54] There's six.

[17:55] As a motion to appoint a zoning board solicitor.

[17:58] Um, we had a recent.

[17:59] Um,

[18:01] We had a recent vacancy due to, uh,

[18:04] Brian's already stepping down to take another position with a different firm and didn't have the time to do it.

[18:08] We posted it on our website on 513.

[18:12] Um, we'll say,

[18:17] Molly Clark, who was interested in the position.

[18:20] Mr. Chairman.

[18:22] I'll be looking for a motion to approve Molly Clark as the zoning board solicitor.

[18:28] I make that motion.

[18:30] A bit.

[18:31] Need a second?

[18:32] I'll be the second chair.

[18:34] Okay.

[18:36] On the question, as Vito said,

[18:38] it was the only, we did advertise.

[18:40] We put it out there and we had one person interested.

[18:46] All in favor?

[18:49] All right.

[18:50] All right.

[18:50] Thanks.

[18:53] Thanks.

[18:54] That is the proof.

[18:56] This is Clark.

[18:57] Good point.

[18:59] Number seven is the motion to approve the proposed small wireless

[19:01] communications facilities master license agreement between the

[19:04] borough and click-o partnership doing business as Verizon wireless.

[19:09] Terry Perry on the question you want to explain this?

[19:15] You have to unmute.

[19:16] unmute yourself.

[19:17] Yes, there we go. Okay, Verizon is as they do in many municipalities is looking for an agreement to upgrade the Wi-Fi so they need license to put their equipment on our telephone poles.

[19:39] So we have 123 polls that are subject to this agreement, and they're going to pay $270 per year per poll for the license fee.

[19:58] As indicated, the license fee is dictated by the FCC regulations,

[20:07] we did.

[20:08] We were able to get Verizon to add to the agreement, a paragraph indicating that in the event,

[20:18] the FCC regulations would allow for additional fees,

[20:22] then the agreement would be amended during the term to reflect that change.

[20:30] So even though the agreement, the term of the agreement is 15 years.

[20:35] In the event five years from now, the FCC changes the amount that we can receive.

[20:41] Then the agreement can be amended to assert that.

[20:45] And we would receive the greater amount.

[20:47] Thank you. What role does the PUC play in this? What is there in PUC regulation as well?

[20:58] No. I don't believe they do. Jan, this is an FCC rule. I think that the state, the PUC.

[21:12] Thank you.

[21:12] There's a big agreement regarding the PUC.

[21:15] So I don't think they really have anything to do with it.

[21:18] Okay.

[21:19] Well, thank you Mr. Bob.

[21:20] You'll work on that.

[21:21] I'll be looking for a motion to approve.

[21:26] Verizon, be allowed to use the polls and we get a number for that.

[21:31] I'm going to agree.

[21:32] Okay.

[21:33] The second, please.

[21:36] The second.

[21:37] Okay.

[21:39] On the question Mr. Perry, I think the answer to anything.

[21:41] Does anybody have any other questions from Mr. Perry before I take a vote?

[21:48] All in favor?

[21:49] All in favor?

[21:51] Anybody guessed?

[21:52] Anybody guessed?

[21:53] That had passed.

[21:54] That had passed.

[21:56] Thank you very much, Mr. Perry, for that work been to you.

[22:00] Number eight is an informational update and proposed change or changes.

[22:05] Annual routine, bridge inspection on no street bridge over the Delaware Lachlan Railroad

[22:09] and Roring Brook.

[22:12] Mr. Chairman, on the question, we have an annual inspection on the Mill Street Bridge.

[22:18] It's been as people are aware, it's been deteriorating over time.

[22:23] The current posting is a bridge weight limit of 13 tonne, with an exception with the

[22:28] accept combinations of 21.

[22:30] What can that through their third party wants to ask us to do is decrease the tonnage to 5 tonne and put up water barriers

[22:43] 402 feet on the right side of the bridge, which would be the pedestrian cross rock. With blocking that off on both ends. The reason being is they don't want any potential vehicles going up over

[22:58] sidewalk because they're nervous that the weight or the structure won't hold it. To give

[23:08] everybody some kind of idea, five tonn is only an average passenger vehicle or an average

[23:16] residential truck. So possibly some smaller ambulances would be able to go over as well.

[23:24] But a UPS vehicle, school bus, a fire truck, a garbage truck, a cloud truck, et cetera,

[23:30] would not be able to go over that bridge because they deemed it unsafe for that weight capacity.

[23:37] So council, we're waiting on the final from Pendot to say that that's what they want to do with the

[23:50] to either put those water barriers up,

[23:54] which would cost us an excess of about $22,000.

[23:59] And have a five ton weight limit,

[24:02] which is that vehicle or a residential truck,

[24:06] or they can choose another option of the clothes

[24:08] that bridge and detour all traffic.

[24:13] Don't have to make a decision on that tonight,

[24:14] but we're waiting for the final,

[24:16] we're from Penn.com.

[24:17] No, Penn.com has 30 days to get us their final approval

[24:21] of what they want done, but the five ton in the water barriers, it's that option or to close

[24:29] the bridges the other option. And just to give you a little more information on this, we tried

[24:35] and I've had meetings setting up, I want to say if I'm not mistaken, maybe three to four

[24:42] five years ago, to enter into a program with Penn Dot, where we would pay 5% turn everything over to Penn Dot.

[24:52] I don't even know that program still exists anymore. They would take over everything from the engineering to building and then eventually turn the bridge back over to Burrow.

[25:02] The problem with bridge is, obviously it's deteriorating, but there's three independent structures on that bridge.

[25:11] If you ever look underneath, I guess not one bridge as, you know, anybody that's passing over,

[25:17] it thinks there's a railroad bridge there, and it has two separate structures for the bridge that goes over a rowing block.

[25:23] So, I think at the time we might have been quoted,

[25:30] I'm just guesstimating 12 million or something like that to replace that whole structure,

[25:36] which would have cost us 5% at the time.

[25:38] Now you're talking, obviously, things increase.

[25:41] I don't think we could ever take on a whole bridge with placement as the borough ourselves,

[25:46] but it's something that has to be done.

[25:49] I mean, the safety of the citizens that live there, fire, ambulance response, it's, we're going to wait on the pad not before it and see what happens there, but that's more or less, we've looked into it, we're trying, I don't know if that's, we, if it doesn't water, as to say, but it's maybe something we can still talk to kind of about it.

[26:10] to get that program available. I think that had something to do with, we weren't eligible for,

[26:14] they did a study on how much wages of the income of the people that live in at immediate

[26:21] area. And I don't know if it qualified, I don't think it qualified, but we got to look at

[26:26] something else, maybe it's helped from the state legislatures or something, but I don't think we could

[26:30] ever take on the burden of placing that up for yourselves. Vito, did you and I not talk about the state

[26:37] recommends it closes, or it gets repaired and since we can't repair it, it should be

[26:45] closed and be as we were out of it.

[26:47] What I omitted was, I asked when those water barriers are about 1,350 tons.

[26:55] So the way the weight distribution is calculated that it's 300 pounds per linear foot is what

[27:01] those weighted, those water barriers are going to be,

[27:07] which that bridge in capacity will hold that.

[27:11] They can suggest that, so I asked them

[27:14] what the longevity of that being, that fix for,

[27:20] because my concern was everything is going to go to the left

[27:23] and compromise the other side.

[27:25] Opposite the passenger are the pedestrian crosses.

[27:29] They gave me an estimate of about two to five years.

[27:32] We would probably have to decrease the bridge the one way to give everybody just some information on the bridge.

[27:40] The railroad company built that bridge in 1915.

[27:45] So when they built it, it was in an agreement in November of 1915 that they turned it over to the borough.

[27:58] and the borough would maintain it there, they're on.

[28:02] So there was a lot of lore that we did on the bridge,

[28:05] we did it on the bridge.

[28:07] I had the document from Penn Dot that the bridge is the boroughs.

[28:12] So would the art decision on what to do for that bridge?

[28:17] I think we're not going to do anything

[28:20] to take over the motions or anything,

[28:21] but just information and we pass it along.

[28:25] And let's see what Penn Dot's final word is.

[28:27] obviously it's not a water barriers like those big Jersey barriers you know the big

[28:37] concrete barriers that you see in the middle like the highway dividers oh yeah but

[28:41] did you fill them with water oh what's the purpose of that in case someone hits him yes

[28:47] it's safer yes but what does it mean if standing pen that likes to use that a lot the water barriers

[28:56] But if it has increased to a single lane, we would probably have to look at some signaling on both ends of the bridge as well, on whether it's two stop signs or whether it's traffic lights.

[29:10] So if you don't, if you thought it is situation, then are you saying fire trucks won't be able to go over the bridge?

[29:17] No, no, no.

[29:17] So how old the fire trucks get there in the event of a, right?

[29:21] Yeah.

[29:21] So I would have to go down wheel or avenue to where

[29:23] hiles used to be, take a left, down to the bottom of the hill.

[29:28] And they can't go straight because that, that by doc is only 10 feet.

[29:31] They would have to go right at the little league, left at the newborns.

[29:34] They just put in two blocks up and take another left.

[29:37] It's a bunker hill.

[29:39] Well, the response time would be horrible.

[29:43] It would be, you know, one other thing, when we, when I talked about this,

[29:49] the two year the cost is the first thing I'd like you to address in the second thing is

[29:57] you mentioned to me also I think there's

[30:00] And you applied to the state to put this bridge on the list to be repaired by the state. Am I correct there?

[30:09] Yes, that's what Mr. Hallan was just saying. Three, four years ago there was a program that they had.

[30:15] We sent the letter. They said the wait period could possibly be anywhere from eight to ten years to either to even get on the list for that approval.

[30:26] What it was as Councilman Allen said is that we would turn the bridge over to them.

[30:31] They would repair it.

[30:33] We would be responsible for 5% of the total cost.

[30:37] Penn thought they'd give us an estimate that would be at that time 10 to 12 million dollars.

[30:42] Then once that was completed, it would be turned back over to the borough and made paying by the borough.

[30:48] the cost, I think, are you asking about the water barriers or the cost of the bridge?

[30:55] The cost, we talked a few things, we talked, the cost of obviously replacing the bridge, the water barriers, and there was a third one we talked about, third option.

[31:06] Well, before you go there, are we on that waiting list for this state, or are we, what are we doing with that?

[31:14] We're not on the way to this.

[31:15] No, because at the time, the money became dry to do that program.

[31:21] I built it for a joke.

[31:23] There were going to try to re-establish it.

[31:26] I was in touch with Senator Blake's offices.

[31:32] And at the time, I don't remember who our state rep was.

[31:36] It might have been representative Haggerty.

[31:40] Right.

[31:42] I'm to try to get any help we could because the the prognosis of this structures and very good.

[31:52] So if eventually this bridge will be closed down sooner or later.

[31:56] If we were down to one lane, would the fur trucks be able to get over there there?

[32:00] No.

[32:01] And garlics of what we want to do, the capacity has to be decreased to five pounds because

[32:07] the steel girders, they feel are that compromised.

[32:13] And Vito, how much of the water barriers again?

[32:17] Well, there are different prices.

[32:19] I looked on co-stars pricing.

[32:21] They're about 275 to 300 dollars per barrier.

[32:24] We have to cover 402 feet.

[32:27] So we're going to get the berries safely 70 barriers probably around $20,000.

[32:33] But, you know, maybe I'm just saying, let's, let's, let's, we could wait more when

[32:38] that's going to go to this final thing and then they could also set up a, a safe way to pass

[32:44] over that bridge and maybe we will help you that many barriers because maybe they'll use

[32:48] what's called the Jersey barrier, the concrete barrier and then use the water barriers to

[32:52] protect on the edge of it.

[32:54] Because that's what more or less they're looking for is a head on a crash into the barriers.

[32:58] So they'll surround the jersey barrier and each on four sides with water barriers and then put it down to Calgary Lane.

[33:06] And then we'll probably need signals to only have the lane of traffic go through each side.

[33:12] But again, that would probably amount of their few years, but they'll come through with some desks.

[33:19] So that's the questions if we asked if there was this with anything, and I know they're always good to help and not the girls.

[33:26] So, thank you.

[33:27] We could hand with anything.

[33:29] Thank you.

[33:30] Sure.

[33:30] Should we, you know, get in touch with our state, right?

[33:33] Absolutely.

[33:34] We could, we could send, you know, I'm sure we tried this.

[33:38] They know about they're going to get the inspection.

[33:40] I'll even make them come with the inspection.

[33:42] And I'm not mistaken.

[33:43] I'm out of there a few years.

[33:44] They might even say, hey, listen, this program's available.

[33:47] That program's available.

[33:48] So this is what you could do to help you, you know, because it's to rehabilitate the fridge.

[33:56] In my opinion, it isn't going to happen.

[33:58] We're going to have to build a new fridge.

[34:00] So I would like, and I would like the wheels to turn there.

[34:04] At least now we could get over with this bridge and put another bridge alongside of it.

[34:10] The permanent structure.

[34:10] I don't know if the best, you know, entrance exit would be a bit.

[34:15] And it would take five to seven years to build a bridge easy at a time to go through everything.

[34:23] But that's in time.

[34:25] The problem, the problem is you're dealing with the waterways that you need to permit and you're dealing with the railroad that you need to permit.

[34:31] So anything done is governed by the PUC that Penn not has to do.

[34:35] So they have to get approval from both the railroad and because it's still an active railroad and the waterways because the roaring broke that runs underneath it.

[34:43] Could you arrange a meeting just for the

[34:47] propuse see, sorry, they're

[34:48] not to come into one of our

[34:51] exact sessions and explain all this to us?

[34:56] Especially with the time limit in the

[34:58] the time urgency of the time I'd like to really stay on top of this and keep it

[35:04] in the forefront, at least to know what's coming

[35:07] sooner obviously than later.

[35:10] What I just told you is I'll get kind of not there, but they're going to say the same thing and the time frame is we have to wait the 30 days for Penn dot to respond to us.

[35:19] So once Penn dot gets that final approval with their recommendations are they're going to say yes, this is what you need to do.

[35:27] Now you can do the latter of the two, which is closing, but that's what their recommendation is there's a report.

[35:35] I believe I sent to everybody that Penn dot further.

[35:38] Yeah, but Tom, Tom Helen, and just talked about maybe there are some programs that we could

[35:44] avail ourselves of, maybe if they can then talk about that.

[35:48] And we probably could talk to Senator Blake and also representative Mollett about that.

[35:53] After even the county could probably can also, and they can help us do with anything.

[35:57] We're, hey, we'll take it for anybody.

[35:59] We're had shy.

[36:00] That's so, um, if there's not any more questions about that, okay.

[36:09] Number nine is an informational update and status for the letter to DEP regarding the keystone sanitary landfill expansion.

[36:18] Mr. Perry, would you like to make a statement about that please?

[36:23] Sure.

[36:24] Well, a draft of the letter has been circulated among the council members at this point.

[36:31] We haven't till June 30th to send the letter.

[36:36] So it's in the process at this point.

[36:40] Well, we did get some pushback.

[36:42] Can you explain that that situation?

[36:47] Well, Keystone does not want us to send,

[36:51] does not want the borough council to send the letter.

[36:56] So we've been discussing that issue with them

[36:59] with potential litigation threatened by them if we did some of the letter based on the

[37:10] prior landfill agreement. So that's where we are at this point and no decision has been made

[37:19] with regard to what is going to occur. As I said we do have the draft letter and we haven't

[37:26] to 30 of the Senate, so it's up to Council.

[37:30] We've also already voted to send it. I mean, we voted on it. We've voted on it. I mean, I think that's a move point. You know, we were seven zero on that. So we just need some timing. And in your opinion, do you think that litigation would be successful?

[37:54] If I don't know, I think the agreement, the 2014 agreement I believe permits us to make any type of comment we want.

[38:07] That is the council to make any type of comment they want with regard to the landfill and expansion of it.

[38:16] I think they would be successful.

[38:19] Thank you.

[38:20] That's all I had.

[38:23] Number 10 is public comment. We received two individuals that sent in questions, Councilman

[38:31] Allen, and you have them in front of you.

[38:36] The first is from Mr. David Johnson. He has a few questions here.

[38:42] Reef Street. North and South is across is over Shirley Lane. At some point in time, the

[38:47] had a two foot wide strip painted in the driver's lane. On each side of Shirley Lane intersection with the stop

[38:55] where it's not painted under his under the spike. This should be repainted now,

[39:01] halfway for someone to get hit. They just don't stop. I think Vito, we're addressing that as the

[39:08] D.V. W. Will that might get dark as early as tomorrow morning? Okay, thank you very much for that.

[39:14] Second question. Here we go again. I see the borough has started fixing some of the roads. I see no signs yet

[39:21] As to when you plan to fix the 600 block, it's surely related for my home. And yes, we have discussed this several times that you're meeting. Just give me a date. So I know when it will be done this summer

[39:34] Mr. Regiriator, we have anything from the GPW on that. They're not actively paving the paving you see on Reed Street

[39:42] is Lackawana County, failing that.

[39:45] What are filling pop holes, per se?

[39:48] But we're going to try to put together a comprehensive plan

[39:52] for our guys to do it.

[39:54] Not a third party vendor to come in and pay our roads,

[39:57] but to repair anything that we can work at.

[40:00] Well, the painting you see is Lackawana County doing it.

[40:05] Okay, so our eyes can fix this, correct?

[40:08] This particular gentleman has talked about this

[40:11] several meetings and we did promise them that as soon as it was warm we would

[40:15] feel we would feel the path. It's a paid call. It's a huge phone front of

[40:18] his house. I drove by it. Yeah, it's a it's I believe it extends off a paid

[40:23] cut. It has to be cut out. I will have our I will go up there what I need to

[40:30] W form it again and have them in sure that something is. Thank you. Thank you.

[40:38] Janet, this one's for you, for Mrs. Breyer, the borough has now hired a treasurer of salary

[40:43] of $57,000 per year. We're in this, where is this money coming from? If you want to hang

[40:49] on, he has a few questions. Where is the money coming from? Was it in the budget? I have seen

[40:54] your April treas report showing income short by $462,000. And your expenses were over 56,000

[41:03] for a total deficit of 519,000, 48 dollars.

[41:09] So far this year, you have a budget,

[41:11] you better start sticking to, by the end of the year,

[41:14] we won't have, we won't have a deficit

[41:18] of 3.1 million in the rep of closer to 4 million.

[41:21] And a note of interest from your minutes,

[41:23] it shows that 3.1 million dollars

[41:25] reported as dollars lost.

[41:28] How about changing to say 3.1 million dollars

[41:31] were overspent.

[41:33] Who was that time?

[41:35] He just wants no.

[41:37] I mean, he was the gentleman.

[41:39] Mr. Johnson.

[41:40] It's the same.

[41:41] He had three questions.

[41:43] No, let me show my screen.

[41:45] Sure.

[41:47] I'm going to respond to this.

[41:52] All right.

[41:55] And response to his inquiry.

[41:59] It's to pull up the

[42:03] treasure's report.

[42:06] If I can find it,

[42:15] there it is.

[42:17] Okay.

[42:19] So, uh, you know what I have to do with a different way.

[42:23] Hang on one second.

[42:28] I mean, I don't mean to pull words in your mouth again.

[42:30] But I'm sure he was buddies before.

[42:33] And uh, but the other parts, I think he could want to answer there with the

[42:36] coming to tourism.

[42:41] Yeah well here's here's a story as you said, you know, to me

[42:46] to a three Mr. Johnson there is no budget because nothing for the past couple

[42:55] years the budget was I mean to put it mildly mistreated every time we every time

[43:08] went to a council meeting. So and then there was no budget this year for whatever reason, whoever was

[43:18] supposed to make it for 2019 never did it. So we don't have a budget. We never had an FTE budget,

[43:25] a full-time equivalent budget. We have a new, I wanted to introduce our new treasure whose name is Mark

[43:32] Burton. It comes with many, many years of experience in government, and we're very pleased to

[43:37] him and he's really finding his way. So as Tom said, and again, this is something that I have

[43:45] to rely on the people who came before me to say is that we, you know, we have, we had it budgeted

[43:54] $57,000 for that new treasure. And he has been hired and he's doing a good job because really,

[44:06] This is a very large hole for him to climb out of.

[44:10] This is the May January through May budget.

[44:13] And again, that budget financials.

[44:15] Because we can't give you budget information,

[44:18] because there is no budget.

[44:20] So he and I will be working diligently on that

[44:22] to make it a realistic budget for 2021.

[44:27] And in the meantime, I wanted to give folks

[44:29] at least an idea of where we are with respect to last year.

[44:34] So, if everyone can see my screen, can you guys see my screen now?

[44:40] Yeah.

[44:41] Yeah.

[44:41] Oh, no.

[44:42] No.

[44:43] No.

[44:43] Okay.

[44:44] So, no.

[44:45] You can see it?

[44:48] Uh.

[44:49] Don't.

[44:50] Let me see.

[44:57] And so, I'm sharing.

[45:04] All right. Okay, great. So here's the financials. And it gives you the January to May of 2020, January to May of 19. And this is also on the our website, correct? You know, yes, so that, you know, if you need it, you wanted a copy, you can just go to the website. There are a few things I wanted to point out, this is a question.

[45:31] Of course, on any financial statement, it's the revenue first.

[45:36] It's a demo for a profit and loss.

[45:40] We cycling.

[45:43] You know, some of these line items are a little bit hard to understand

[45:48] or they're misleading because, for instance, this line item,

[45:52] the tax anticipation note last year.

[45:55] We took out a million dollars.

[45:57] And this year we were only had to take out 575, 479 of that was for a missed pension payment for 2018.

[46:12] So we had to pay that in 2019, or 2020, after the state came in and ordered our books.

[46:18] So anyway, so it looks like we're down 425,000 dollars there, but really it's alone.

[46:25] The tax anticipation note is alone.

[46:27] So yes, we didn't get that for 25, but that's a good thing because we don't want to be that much more in debt for 2020.

[46:36] So if you go down a little bit further,

[46:41] some of these things I had questions on and Mark was able to get the answers for me.

[46:49] And this is just a quick analytical review of the differences.

[46:59] So if you say, the biggest line item every year as everyone knows is the salaries.

[47:13] I mean, I don't almost any anyone's profit loss, the biggest line items are wages.

[47:21] So here's police salaries, they're $83,000 for the first five months a year, they're $83,000 more than they were in 2019.

[47:34] The fire salaries are $41,000 more, code enforcement, $6,000, and solid waste, $50,000, almost $60,000 more than they were for the first five months of 2019.

[47:48] Now, one of the questions I had was this right here, what the heck was that for $1.15 million

[47:59] under solid waste? It doesn't make sense to me. It turns out that this is mostly

[48:08] short stadium. This is what Mark discovered. So that is a capital purchase, but it's certainly

[48:16] that a capital purchase under South Southwest. Mark and I have a have an appointment with Mike

[48:23] Dorety. He is our outside auditor for Dunmore. He audits our books every year. So these are some

[48:31] and we have an appointment with him on June 24th. Mark and I are going to go up to his office and

[48:38] try and figure out, you know, Mike, Mike Dorety may have already discovered that this is misposted and

[48:45] that may have already corrected, but we have to deal with what we have now. We don't have the financial statements yet.

[48:52] So these are just some of the questions I had for Mark and Mark was able to answer most of them.

[49:00] He's been very familiar with our profit and loss statement. And again, we're going to start working on

[49:11] on the budget for next year to make it more realistic.

[49:15] Here's something too that is concerning for me and for everyone in the

[49:19] bro I would say it is the loan. See how much they're up just this one line

[49:26] item. $258,000 to $1,061,000 and I don't know what this pension bond was last year

[49:33] That's another question I'm going to ask, my, my, my, my duty. So we, so we can get a little bit of a better handle on our what's real and this in this thing and what isn't so net income for the first five months of 2020 is a little bit more than $50,000 more than last year or $99,000 so that's good.

[50:06] But, as we all know, the first five months, we, you know, the time when we get our tax revenue.

[50:17] So, to everyone's concern is, like, as Mr. Johnson said, it's later in the year that we need to be really, really, really worried about.

[50:26] And also, as not to interrupt, I'm sorry, Janet, are you finished there? I'm sorry.

[50:30] We still have that 4.25 that if you know, when the tax and tax and tax and

[50:36] tax and the situation knows, it doesn't get touched.

[50:39] That helps us.

[50:41] The wages, as you said, that's already negotiated.

[50:44] There's nothing we can do about the police wages, the fire wages, the

[50:48] P.P.W. wages.

[50:49] They've all been even air contractual.

[50:52] So we're bound to those wages.

[50:54] It's not like it's I think there are over time numbers are within

[50:58] reason or barely compared to how they were out of control. I think these are doing a good

[51:04] job and then did they want to do what we do there. So I think we got a pretty good handle.

[51:09] I appreciate all the hard work you and Mark are doing and I think, you know, we're on the right

[51:17] road. So thank you. If I could finish this we'd a little weird here, Tommy. My concern again

[51:24] is that last year, we were 3.2 million dollars of loss, you know, profit over loss, there was

[51:35] a 3.2 million dollar loss, and that's what's taking 4 million out of the sewer

[51:41] at the account.

[51:42] So, my concern,

[51:45] and in 3 million of that came in December, there must have been a huge

[51:49] cash crunch last December to take $3 million out of the sewer authority account for operations.

[51:57] So, again, my concern is not so much, you know, the first five months, but, you know, what's

[52:03] going to happen later in the year?

[52:05] Right.

[52:05] Mark and I would like to get like a hint, and as you say, salaries are salaries are salaries.

[52:10] I agree with that, but I think it's worth pointing out so that people have done what

[52:14] know what the situation is with the sounds, because it is one of the biggest line items

[52:21] that we have.

[52:22] As you can see, this pitching contribution line right here, see that?

[52:27] Yeah, half a million dollars.

[52:28] Now, that's where that force...

[52:30] N9 is but. It's also we decided so that we wouldn't have this huge payment at the end of the year that we would pay

[52:39] $36,500 a month into the pension so that, you know, maybe it would mitigate some of the basketball issues in December.

[52:49] So we've been paying 36,500 a month into the pinching contribution, and hopefully that will mitigate some of that situation that must be occurring at the end of the year. Again, this is my first year, my first five months. I don't really know what happens at the end of the year, but when looking at prior financial statements, it's pretty clear that there were there were huge deficits going on in the end of the end.

[53:18] Also, Janet, though, we are also, I mean, a credit to everybody on council here that we are looking at refinancing or even, you know, we're waiting for those people that are putting in their fits for that too.

[53:33] So that could help us save a lot of money.

[53:35] Sure, that would be great.

[53:37] Okay, that's all I had.

[53:38] Thank you.

[53:39] Thank you.

[53:39] I hope that answered your question.

[53:41] Mr. Johnson, yeah, I hope so.

[53:44] And again, if you want to call me, anybody can call me any time, I could give you my cell phone number and you're welcome to call me.

[53:52] It's 5702122590.

[53:58] Thank you.

[53:59] And would you return the screen, please?

[54:01] Right.

[54:02] Do you have to return the screen here, so.

[54:03] Oh, sorry about that.

[54:05] Let me stop sharing.

[54:07] That's all right.

[54:08] Thank you.

[54:08] How's that?

[54:09] Perfect.

[54:11] Next is from Mr. Gary Duncan.

[54:13] out of the Dunmore Neighborhood Association.

[54:16] Good job, he always does.

[54:19] He writes, I hope all of council is well.

[54:22] A few questions.

[54:23] When I am engaged in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,

[54:27] aging board or director meeting, we utilize

[54:29] new awards guide.

[54:30] We have approximately 15, 40 people.

[54:33] Occasionally more for our meetings.

[54:35] All members in real time are allowed to ask questions

[54:38] and clarify any answers that may be misinterpreted.

[54:41] I am attaching a link for the Zoom meetings, pricing, and I trust you are already aware of the pricing.

[54:49] I would hope that for the future meetings, those who have to view who have to view via Zoom would have the ability to actively participate.

[54:57] Questions and concerns that we have.

[55:00] Chair, thank you for that information.

[55:01] I'm sure we've got it all so let's hope that we're green by next month and that everything will be packed in normal.

[55:09] We pray to God. Okay? We'll the new world treasure be offering a report for future meetings. I think we try to get him in tonight's and you're gonna try and come on, but I don't

[55:20] You know, he's going to I gave it this month, but he's going to in the future we've talked about that. Thank you

[55:26] Has the borough had any contact with attorney tribe or the grant sewer authority attorney sees final date of SSA deal any the update would appreciate it

[55:37] You have any updates on that?

[55:45] That is the June meeting was postponed.

[55:49] I can certainly reach out to him tomorrow

[55:52] and have something for next month's meeting.

[55:55] That's a problem at all.

[55:57] I'll definitely do that tomorrow,

[55:59] but June's meeting can't so.

[56:03] And if I'm not mistaken,

[56:05] it is canceled until August,

[56:06] but I will double check that.

[56:08] Okay.

[56:09] I appreciate that.

[56:11] There are numerous you. Thank you. Number five for Michael Duncan. There are numerous utility markers on part three and someone please let me know what work is going to be done there on the street and at timeline, you know.

[56:27] I spoke to Mr. Duncan today, Mr. Lorenz Coppice, the American water, they're fixing a collapsed basin on trip street. That's why they did a one call to see where everything was.

[56:39] Thank you.

[56:41] Um, I have, and I don't know just so everybody knows.

[56:44] Oh my god, I broke my heart.

[56:45] There was a beef, the black top, and ten out of everything.

[56:51] Um, out of the bottom of Delaware street between Adams and Jefferson.

[56:55] Brand new cave, and there was a home of the sewer break,

[56:59] and they had it get up the street.

[57:01] broke my heart.

[57:02] All right.

[57:03] This road isn't even paved a month.

[57:06] I think, or two months.

[57:11] Okay, the next one I have is from Lee Ann Perry.

[57:15] This is a pretty long letter, please bear with me.

[57:20] This letter is being sent to you to make you aware of once again

[57:23] of the situation you are all too familiar with.

[57:25] He illegal use and abuse of ATV vehicles

[57:28] riding on streets of the Denver community.

[57:32] I will only address my neighborhood, which is very dangerous.

[57:36] Every single day of the week begins being the most dangerous and unsafe or anyone who walks

[57:42] streets.

[57:42] Let alone come out of their house.

[57:44] We are met with clouds and verpikes driving a extremely high rates of speed driving

[57:50] down the public world road in front of my own.

[57:53] If that is not enough, most times one of the ATV drivers will find enjoyment by veering off

[57:59] the public road and onto my personal property and decide to spend out while doing so with

[58:05] The tires of the ATV will kick the breed,

[58:07] which they know fly up in the air and land who knows where.

[58:11] I have cameras in Scotland, my personal property,

[58:14] and have numerous clips of a radic and danger

[58:16] actions of certain ATV drivers.

[58:19] I can share those with you, if you'd like.

[58:22] I would also add, there are some ATV drivers

[58:24] who, respectively, drive, high slope, and do not speed

[58:29] on the public road, but it is disrespectful.

[58:32] But is the district's pickled drivers who also outweigh that?

[58:38] These actions from these ATB drivers will begin approximately at 11 am and will continue

[58:44] to about 3 am in the next morning.

[58:47] All day long, plods and dirt bikes drive up and down, driving clear responsibility,

[58:51] dangerously and erratically.

[58:53] Yet you choose to do nothing as counsel to rectify this danger situation.

[58:57] I have also bought a brought to your attention that with this behavior, a gunshot, we're being fired hours on them, and who knows which direction a gun was being.

[59:09] This happens more at night, so add the darkness to the aim of the shooter.

[59:15] If you ask me that person should be mentally evaluated.

[59:19] For years, this was brought to your attention, and nothing was done to make my neighborhood safe.

[59:24] I ask you why.

[59:26] What is going to take?

[59:27] What is it going to take for you as a member of Councils?

[59:30] Come up with a solution to make my street safe.

[59:33] Is it going to take someone getting hurt or a loss of life for that to happen?

[59:38] Are you prepared to take that responsibility?

[59:40] The legal responsibility, the personal responsibility, and the remote emotional responsibility

[59:46] if someone gets hurt.

[59:48] That no will get you the most and will never, that will get you the most and it will never

[59:54] go away.

[59:55] Again, I ask you why you choose to protect the illegal use of ATPs.

[1:00:00] On public roads, whatever your reason is it worth it. Last week, two signs of no ATV writers were posted on my street. I reached out to Mayor Jim Burke. We took first step to help with the situation of the size of done absolutely nothing, because they are not being enforced, which is the most critical part.

[1:00:20] A cop car makes an occasional pass through the street, which will not fix the problem either, enforcing the laws, the only answer.

[1:00:28] I have to file the law of legal and illegal, and maybe if I became an ATV owner, I wouldn't have to do that.

[1:00:37] I can easily make complaints as dumb or police every single time I hear an ATV bone numb of the throat, but I do not out of respect for the dumb or police that are busy with other issues.

[1:00:47] and if the driver is respectfully going on the road.

[1:00:51] But when I have to call for tape, you can say,

[1:00:53] I am met with disrespect and ignored,

[1:00:56] and again, nothing being done.

[1:00:58] Why can't we get to decide that?

[1:01:01] As members of Congress who are willingly choosing

[1:01:04] to protect APB riders over safety,

[1:01:07] you are not protecting the APB drivers either.

[1:01:12] I suggest finding a safe solution for everyone

[1:01:14] If this is what you want for our town,

[1:01:17] mind an entrance to the wood for free access for the ATVs

[1:01:20] and make sure that the road is safe for the drivers,

[1:01:23] they're trucked in trailers until they reach the point of unloading off a public treat.

[1:01:28] So with protecting the ATV driver,

[1:01:31] it also comes with responsibility of seeing it true.

[1:01:35] ATV owners also need to see their responsibility

[1:01:38] through a buying a trailer to halberate the off to a public road and unload.

[1:01:42] However, they feel the entitlement of having to do so because some are allowed to neck

[1:01:48] havoc on the most public roads and still fear to the community that someday someone will get hurt.

[1:01:55] Nothing is being done. Again, I ask why. I believe there can be a safe solution for both sides.

[1:02:04] But what is happening now is not the answer. Thank you.

[1:02:13] I've reached out to Miss Perry and I am going to

[1:02:18] Mayor, which I know you've been taken lead on a lot of ATVs.

[1:02:22] I think it's time to sit down with all the neighbors,

[1:02:26] trying to come up with some kind of solution there,

[1:02:29] maybe I don't know what kind of public land to get them in

[1:02:31] or maybe you can come up with Mr. Perry.

[1:02:34] I'm sorry, I could sit in.

[1:02:36] Obviously, we'll need some kind of guidance for the law

[1:02:39] other than just making decisions on our own. But this is a very serious situation that has to be addressed.

[1:02:47] What about the camera's term? Can we use the film that Mrs. Perry has?

[1:02:53] How is that legal? I'm sure. Sure. Yes, you can. Can you give us those films? Could we just

[1:02:59] cite people from them? Again, there's very legal there's no license plates on them. So how do you

[1:03:05] figure out who's driving that vehicle.

[1:03:07] Well, you could make a vehicle anyway.

[1:03:10] Yeah. You'd have to be able to identify the driver of the ATV or get the license plate

[1:03:18] if it had a license plate. And then you could see that film that she has and see if there's

[1:03:23] anything identifiable on it, you know?

[1:03:25] Well, you could definitely cite them if you could prove who it was.

[1:03:30] Yeah. Oh, that's good. I didn't know that. I didn't know if like a private like security

[1:03:34] Someone's house can be used for that purpose. Yeah, well they do it with cameras on the on the traffic lights

[1:03:42] Try to get her

[1:03:44] Yeah

[1:03:46] Something to your earlier today because it needs to be a turning

[1:03:51] Yeah, can

[1:03:53] Put the video on the Facebook page actually any homeowner can put the video on a Facebook page from their personal

[1:04:03] And they can put it on their Facebook page to identify the individuals writing the

[1:04:12] quads.

[1:04:13] Well, you have invited to the police department first and foremost, and they could then follow

[1:04:21] up on it.

[1:04:22] Mr. Perry, do you think it would be feasible to have a meeting with all parties involved in

[1:04:27] neighbors and trying to come up with some kind of solution up there with the police chief

[1:04:30] yourself may or may or may have been happy to be happy to do it. Everyone knows this is a major

[1:04:38] problem in all municipalities all over. It's illegal to ride these things on the roads but the

[1:04:45] police are not allowed to chase people riding them. Many times they don't have license plates

[1:04:53] So, you can't identify who it is.

[1:04:56] So, it's similar in every bird.

[1:04:59] I've talked to the solicitor of the music bird,

[1:05:04] they passed an ordinance,

[1:05:06] but it's basically unenforceable,

[1:05:08] and they have the same problem we do.

[1:05:11] Thank you.

[1:05:11] Let's just look at the film.

[1:05:14] And then maybe, you know, we can't chase them,

[1:05:17] but they can do roadblocks, right?

[1:05:20] I think I sent you something earlier today from Mrs. Perry with a letter with a clip of I sent it to all council people.

[1:05:28] So I'll take a look at that.

[1:05:30] I think you might have missed it.

[1:05:32] Okay.

[1:05:32] I have one question, please.

[1:05:35] That road used to, again, I'm not sure if this is legal when the burrow did it in the past,

[1:05:39] but that road did use to have a gate right beyond Mrs. Perry's house.

[1:05:44] And, you know, the DPW police fire, you know, all that access to it with the key, but obviously

[1:05:51] ATV, right there's wouldn't, and we within our rights to do that is that not, not feasible.

[1:05:57] Is it a public road event?

[1:05:59] I believe it is.

[1:06:01] Beyond where the gate is, it's a public road.

[1:06:05] There are property owners back there.

[1:06:07] No, no, no.

[1:06:08] Beyond her properties, the last is the last property on.

[1:06:12] So there are many, many properties down the road and some, some of our done more residents own property down there.

[1:06:19] Well, how would if they also all had keys then? Like all the property owners?

[1:06:23] I, I spoken with the property owners and I think that's what Tom Hallen and wants to do.

[1:06:27] We want to meet with the property owners and what Pierre input is.

[1:06:31] Fantastic. Thank you. Yeah.

[1:06:34] I think that's, I think that you came from Vito a long time ago, which I think we'll see when we,

[1:06:39] The process is right, I think we have to have meeting all the property owners and see what

[1:06:42] everybody would agree to.

[1:06:43] Thank you.

[1:06:43] Because we could go round and round for everybody here.

[1:06:46] Okay.

[1:06:47] That's all I have.

[1:06:49] Next.

[1:06:49] You know.

[1:06:50] Public officials.

[1:06:52] Mayor Burke.

[1:06:53] You have anything this evening?

[1:06:54] Yes.

[1:06:55] I was wondering if we could advertise.

[1:06:58] We got approval from Fondash on the Jacob lakes.

[1:07:02] Um, for the beginning of the grant and near hiles to, uh,

[1:07:08] this practice approximately 0.4 miles to the tank and gunmore, uh,

[1:07:14] last meeting we talked about in council gave,

[1:07:16] found out the approval to take the study and they said we do qualify for the science to,

[1:07:21] uh, make it illegal to turn on the Jake break. So it's asking if council,

[1:07:25] will advertise in the paper, we don't know how to leave you

[1:07:29] a sentence.

[1:07:30] From a days it has to be advertised. It's got a minimum of seven days before our vote maximum of 30 or 60.

[1:07:39] Is there anything we have to do tonight to advance that to anything here with vote or do you just, we have to order.

[1:07:45] That's an afterweight.

[1:07:45] I have to draft an ordinance.

[1:07:47] Okay. You would do that.

[1:07:48] Yeah. Once we draft an ordinance, you have to as to be advertised and then approved.

[1:07:55] Would you draft the ordinance, please?

[1:07:57] Be happy to.

[1:07:58] Thank you.

[1:07:58] Okay, Vito could give you the phone number.

[1:08:02] He's got the emails from fundat on their approval.

[1:08:06] Make-in not.

[1:08:07] John, yeah, I think you have mayor in the approval.

[1:08:12] And I think you gave a letter with the exact dimensions

[1:08:17] of how far down we will are having you.

[1:08:20] It is, and then I believe it goes to the set,

[1:08:23] Blakely or cherry down to the tank.

[1:08:25] Well, actually short street, there's another street there, there's two houses, four, like because Blakely short street chair, it was, but the sign where I believe that short street, one of five short street for the end of, and the beginning has to be the borderline, written Dumber borderline, and the middle of the address of,

[1:08:57] 615-3rd Street is the next building down from Dupetros, and that's where they violate

[1:09:05] at the most.

[1:09:06] They'll speed up just to get cornered where there's no way they can make to turn driving

[1:09:11] that fast.

[1:09:13] But for the ordinary end up once the exact distances that we want to prohibit this.

[1:09:20] So we either the borough engineer or someone's got to provide me with the exact distances

[1:09:26] on Wheeler and then on to whatever, what street is that when you make a left off Wheeler

[1:09:32] toward the tank?

[1:09:33] Is that short street?

[1:09:34] It's short.

[1:09:35] It's short.

[1:09:35] I need those dimensions or distances to be able to draft the ordinance because that's what

[1:09:45] end up wants according to their letter.

[1:09:50] Okay.

[1:09:50] Now, you are, would, so we do suggest, I'm sorry, make you suggest, um, that council asks, uh,

[1:09:58] our engineer to do that, or, well, I don't know, is it the zoning officer or the engineer,

[1:10:04] someone, someone has to do it?

[1:10:06] I'll check into that tomorrow, Mick.

[1:10:08] And also, I find it, I'm a state, and I thought, um, Mr. Toludin, from Penn not, uh,

[1:10:12] graphic gave us the placement of the science, and if not, I'm sure they would. So I'll

[1:10:19] get the dimensions where they want the place where they did the study to a group or the

[1:10:24] science placement will be. Right. I mean, that's what their letters should be. Right.

[1:10:28] That's the differences, and then we'll tell you where to put the science. Okay. I'll take care

[1:10:33] of that. Okay. Thank you. Okay. Anything more, Mr. Burke?

[1:10:37] There. Yes, I mean, at the ATV problems, I mean, obviously we're not going to stop them while there's always going to be people that's going to be breaking the laws.

[1:10:46] No matter what their laws are.

[1:10:49] We want to keep the girls a don't more safe.

[1:10:51] I have nothing against ATVs as long as they're taken on each trailer or black or a truck.

[1:10:58] And not their streets have done. I just want to see somebody get hurt.

[1:11:01] We have the terrible accident last year and we all know what's going to happen again.

[1:11:06] but pretty got a dozen, but it's happening in all these towns across the state.

[1:11:11] You see it every year, and especially in the summer, something that's injured very bad were killed.

[1:11:21] But it's illegal to drive them on the streets period.

[1:11:26] I mean, I thought the tailor, last year I tried to get the tailor,

[1:11:30] or in his past, I'm a constant degree, what may but I think we can't chase them.

[1:11:37] I know that.

[1:11:38] But if we had that ordinance passed, I still believe that would be the easiest place to catch them as that a gas station.

[1:11:45] As Mickey said, we can't stop an gas station unless we see them pull in there.

[1:11:53] But if we follow the ordinance of Taylor,

[1:11:58] We didn't, we wouldn't have to see them in there. I mean, pull in there. We saw them in there and the gas station is served up, then they'd be breaking a law.

[1:12:07] So, you wouldn't even have to see the pull in there. You'd be, yeah, you pull in and stop them.

[1:12:13] And that's the, the, the music ordinance that that was passed prohibit the gas station owners from filling the tank

[1:12:25] or providing gas to an ATV owner driver that pulls in.

[1:12:32] Correct.

[1:12:33] And that's what I said.

[1:12:34] But we don't have an ordinance.

[1:12:36] So I know, and I just thought it was a good ordinance and that's the easiest way to catch them.

[1:12:40] because gas station they all have to get gas.

[1:12:43] I mean, when I drive by wheeler Avenue,

[1:12:46] I mean, I don't drive the streets all day,

[1:12:48] but I do see a lot of ATVs at the gas station in my neighborhood.

[1:12:53] I have people telling me they see the gas stations

[1:12:56] at the gas station, the fun-drinkers streets,

[1:12:58] all the time, pull it in there.

[1:13:01] But like I said, if we don't see them pull in,

[1:13:05] you said that's illegal to stop them.

[1:13:09] even though they're not there on a truck or a trailer.

[1:13:12] But I'm saying is if it's illegal to sell gas, then we could pull in whether we see them or not.

[1:13:19] And then obviously we'd have them without a chance.

[1:13:24] That's all I'm saying.

[1:13:26] Yeah, you'd have to pass that ordinance saying it's illegal for them to fill up at the gas station.

[1:13:32] Exactly.

[1:13:34] And that's how we have that ordinance.

[1:13:37] Mickey?

[1:13:38] We got a copy from music.

[1:13:41] Okay.

[1:13:42] I think we share that.

[1:13:44] A month or I think a couple of months ago we sent it.

[1:13:48] We sent it around.

[1:13:49] I believe I haven't.

[1:13:51] Yeah.

[1:13:51] I should be in our files because I got it last year,

[1:13:53] sent to the world to.

[1:13:55] Yeah.

[1:13:55] If you wouldn't mind sending it again,

[1:13:57] I can't really tell you.

[1:14:00] Because we weren't here last year, so that would help Janet and I.

[1:14:06] What else?

[1:14:08] As far as, at least, the department to, um, I've had a rich part go over the use of force policy in sales,

[1:14:19] It's also in the context with Chief Grasiano, and ours is basically almost the same as

[1:14:25] the Scrantons, especially on Chalkville, but not a lot of Chalkville, but they're looking

[1:14:30] to see if there's anything that they might want to add to it, especially with the, you know,

[1:14:39] tragedy with George Floyd, whatever. The police are on top of that and they would not, obviously,

[1:14:47] wouldn't want that or anybody wouldn't want that to happen in our town or anywhere

[1:14:50] period. But they're going to be closely looking at

[1:14:53] the ovens and see if there's anything any is going to

[1:14:56] in South City would work with any help he can.

[1:15:00] From anybody to watch the rule over it. My ass out said, has sent it to all accounts. So I don't know if all counsel got or use a force policy.

[1:15:09] Yeah, it's not to the minimale, but I asked, let's set it to all accounts in case there's something in there. Maybe you guys might see that you think should change or be at it on.

[1:15:22] That's all I have for tonight, Tom.

[1:15:24] Thank you, Mayor.

[1:15:26] This is Breyer.

[1:15:28] Do you have anything this evening?

[1:15:29] No, I just wanted to talk about the treasures we put.

[1:15:32] Thanks, thanks, Tommy.

[1:15:34] Thanks, Mrs. Breyer.

[1:15:35] Mrs. Ingaardy.

[1:15:37] I do have a couple of things.

[1:15:39] One thing I would like to reiterate is

[1:15:42] the latter we did a vote on publicly on the record

[1:15:46] at the last meeting.

[1:15:48] Sending regarding the landfills expansion.

[1:15:50] and I just wanted to reiterate that's an important topic of concern for the community right now and I would

[1:16:00] like to suggest we follow through with that sooner than later and get that taken care of.

[1:16:07] The other thing I would like to mention is the ATVs. If you have a good video or a video,

[1:16:16] You can send it to the police department.

[1:16:19] They will post it on their police department, Facebook page.

[1:16:25] If we get to identify the individual with the ATV,

[1:16:29] they will be cited.

[1:16:31] So if that's for, especially the Paris,

[1:16:35] she mentioned a couple of times that she has a video.

[1:16:38] And everybody has a video on their house anymore.

[1:16:41] So if anyone would like to go to that route,

[1:16:44] just get it to the more police department. They'll put it on their Facebook page and hopefully they can get caught and get cited.

[1:16:54] And I think that's all I have. Thank you.

[1:16:56] Thank you, Mrs. Ingardy. Mr. Amiko.

[1:16:59] Yes. Excuse me. I just have one thing. As Attorney Perry stated earlier, a draft has been circulating among council concerning our letter to DEP regarding keystones expansion.

[1:17:08] As far as I'm concerned, the language of the letter can't be up for discussion, not whether or not we should send a letter.

[1:17:15] That was voted on in approval of the last month.

[1:17:17] I believe that we should be sending a letter as soon as possible.

[1:17:21] That's really all.

[1:17:21] I have this evening.

[1:17:22] Thank you for your participation.

[1:17:24] Hopefully we'll be all together again next month.

[1:17:27] No more Zoom.

[1:17:28] Thank you.

[1:17:29] Mr. Meiko.

[1:17:30] Mrs. Scramali.

[1:17:32] I just want to thank everyone who was watching our meeting tonight.

[1:17:36] and that's all I have for tonight. Thank you. Thank you, Mrs. Scrawl. And Mr.

[1:17:40] Mr.

[1:17:44] Green actually. You're on mute.

[1:17:52] We were going so good.

[1:18:03] He might be frozen. I

[1:18:07] a lot of time.

[1:18:13] I hate to leave him hanging, but maybe you can catch up off in a

[1:18:19] I'd like to congratulate the high school graduates of

[1:18:23] a more high school and Bishop Holy Cross.

[1:18:27] I'm not showing how old I am.

[1:18:30] God, what a terrible way to graduate, but

[1:18:32] as to which pardon me.

[1:18:34] All of Council, we put up banners.

[1:18:37] I wasn't one individual.

[1:18:39] Everybody was an animus and put them up.

[1:18:42] And if anything more we could do,

[1:18:44] but I thought that was just a wonderful gesture on all

[1:18:47] Council's part to, you know, so some bit of gratitude to the seniors and the,

[1:18:57] hey, you're there, are you staying out?

[1:19:00] Yeah, good.

[1:19:01] You have anything for tonight?

[1:19:03] No, sir.

[1:19:04] No.

[1:19:05] Okay.

[1:19:07] Also, I just want to tell you, the farmer's market is going to be doing 20 from 9 to 1 PM at the

[1:19:17] businesses, please support our local restaurants and you're going to have our little shops

[1:19:22] through some more burrow, took a beating in the last couple of months, and anybody could just

[1:19:28] get out there and help them and support them if you very much appreciate it by everybody

[1:19:33] in the council and the businesses obviously in themselves. With that, I look for a motion to adjourn.

[1:19:42] I'll make that motion.

[1:19:45] Second.

[1:19:47] Sorry.

[1:19:48] Thank you.

[1:19:49] Good night everybody, and thank you very much for attending.

[1:19:52] Thank you.

[1:19:53] Thank you.

[1:19:53] Bye.
