[0:16] [Music]
thank allegiance to the flag of the
[0:21] United States of America and to the
Republic for which it stands one nation
[0:26] under god indivisible Christine the
stack by Nancy to approve the agenda as
[0:48] it's all in favor opposed motion carried
[1:01] the only house is an adjustment that
equals a shoe office made for Jerry
[1:07] Swenson hired a market value they did a
review on a part of property that
[1:18] functionality and so they decreased the
house appraisal from one hundred and
[1:29] twenty four thousand two hundred to one
hundred nineteen thousand eight hundred
[1:59] motion from Nancy second lady
Deanna that proved what the county said
[2:07] their 1984 the Terry Benson's I look
through the book you to see if there's
[2:38] anything that might need to be changed
usually there's not something this you
[2:43] know blatantly missed or whatever we
just need to prove the book as is
[2:50] [Music]
[3:15] yeah second fine I am to approve the
agenda for the special meeting my
[4:17] favorite so that's me
so we've been a crossroads with our
[4:32] five-year plan for quite a while and I
just started calling towns to see what
[4:36] they do because somebody's got to be in
the same boat as we are so I talked to
[4:40] wall gov white Aurora and Brookings or
Volga white both use first district as
[4:49] their strategic planning we already pay
dues to them so it's at no cost to us
[4:53] from what I understand we just call them
inside of the time they
[4:56] down and facilitate what we want in a
strategic plan which is basically the
[5:00] five-year plan but then it gives us
aspects of where the money comes from
[5:04] how we do the financing behind the
projects we want to do and different
[5:08] facilitating things to town if we give
tax cuts to companies to come to town or
[5:13] they don't have to pay taxes on their
land for so long and where we help out
[5:17] with Tiff's and that kind of thing who
are them - did you say that we're doing
[5:21] that olga and white so I talked to Mary
the finance officer in white their
[5:26] current finance plan is from 2013 to 18
so they're right now currently working
[5:31] with first District on their next
five-year plan and Mulga just did theirs
[5:37] in 2017 and it goes till 2022 there's
just really awesome if you want to look
[5:44] at one online you just go to the city of
all God and there's this you have to
[5:47] download it but this is very impressive
[5:55] they were both in I was in the deal with
them
[6:01] we got together with mayors and so they
have the city administrator it's James
[6:08] Bharath they're Jameson baron and he's
willing to work with us on stuff they
[6:12] can give us talks ideas back and forth
then that was actually when we talked
[6:16] with David from the chamber in Brookings
that was our next step with panelist to
[6:22] team up with other towns to see how we
can facilitate each other network
[6:36] so another thing I asked them - it kind
of goes along with that I guess is what
[6:40] they have for economic development
voilá and Oracle's have very active
[6:45] groups that meet monthly and are doing
lots of things white does not develop in
[6:56] a group and everything but I'm just kind
of interesting to see that aspect of how
[7:01] they facilitate each other and the
economic development works with their
[7:04] council and it's very active and what
they do more than they do they should
[7:24] bring people here to help elevate and
just like one of us members not the
[7:30] mayor can be involved too but one of
those members should be you that
[7:32] cohesion right yes when we did this
before I used to be the one for the
[7:39] council that used to go to the elephant
anomaly being with them and then the
[7:45] mayor went and so I mean they're hard to
get pushed we do have a new president
[7:57] he's been in there a year that's Chuck
Raymond I've got a talk with him again I
[8:04] talked to him about two weeks ago I said
you know we need that Daniel root annual
[8:08] meeting usually should at that in
January February at the latest but we
[8:13] haven't had it yet so they need to have
that because they have to have that to
[8:19] be their nonprofit to meet their
nonprofit status
[8:30] and then they usually do that at that
meeting
[8:43] [Music]
this one is an annual deal and kinda I
[8:50] just make a motion that leave the one in
there I just think it's important that
[8:58] we see what other town we're doing
around us and we can learn from their
[9:01] mistakes as well as their growth and you
know if we can show that a healthy
[9:07] development that these others are
working that way with them it might help
[9:12] us to I would like to have Susan contact
her sister to light up a meeting
[9:22] well John is going to be down we touch
base shows hitting that started the way
[9:32] it sounded is they'll give us forms that
we fill out it when we put our ideas and
[9:35] what we want and then they take it back
in front of you know it's a bread sheet
[9:38] presentation I can that's the way
Jameson made it sound and be very but
[9:44] that was a couple years ago somebody
needs changed toward the shop
[9:48] yeah I don't think it would hurt us we
paid anyway okay so then the next thing
[10:09] the last time you talked about it ITC's
in the process of getting our last video
[10:15] a lot of tapes off she's having issue
one of my files didn't talk long
[10:19] works of fixing it but I looked at a
couple other towns Madison has a YouTube
[10:26] channel which is really cool so anybody
with internet can watch it from their
[10:29] phone from their TV from their laptop
which i think is cool idea I just wanted
[10:34] to make sure that was okay before I
create a channel for us to see right now
[10:39] I know does it cost money no it's free I
think it's under a certain amount of
[10:47] video but it's the same process of what
I do with my PC so I take my phone home
[11:01] I plug it into my computer upload the
file put it into a program splice
[11:05] everything together because it breaks it
down into smaller segments and then I
[11:09] send it to her which that brings us to
our next thing sorry I did some research
[11:16] this last two weeks so the City of
Aurora doesn't video their meetings but
[11:21] they currently audio and save them all
and Shannon said that it's really great
[11:25] if they need to go back and check facts
and that gonna say it's more detailed
[11:28] than minutes would be which is nice but
they save all the Bears on an external
[11:32] hard drive which got Susan and I talking
that none of our files are backed up
[11:36] here which is dangerous as well and they
are like I know just the jump drive you
[11:41] know so I mean if if the building would
burn down we have none of our files
[11:44] external hard drive is a little bit
better but I mean I don't know it just
[11:51] makes sense to have backup of what does
have a copy disk and put them in the
[11:56] same same thing that's what that does
but jump drive for files is fine
[12:03] external hard drive is gonna be able to
hold warm for if you want to hang on to
[12:07] those videos yeah the video is a lot
bigger so and then it's just what unit
[12:13] you can figure out why you don't have to
certainly how the video you just have to
[12:18] talking to I mean you know we'd have to
buy an audio recording device because
[12:24] that I can't split audio off the video
we have one and but that means buying
[12:28] tapes as well which we did years ago
with when Dave cooler was here and
[12:32] that's I'm going to hang on to all those
days any voice recorder now you can do
[12:38] with digital I mean I'm just saying
because then you can then you always
[12:47] have you can go back you can listen to
it I mean I like the aspect of our
[12:54] citizens being able to watch the
language ITC and I'm not an ITC customer
[12:58] so I can't see what we're uploading so
we're not hitting everybody so doing it
[13:02] on our website they're doing it on
YouTube and just having a link from our
[13:05] website then anybody can see it which i
think is important because that makes us
[13:09] more transparent and it shows everyone
what we're doing and then if they have
[13:13] questions I think it makes it easier for
them to ask those questions are they
[13:18] just come to you I mean it's not like
it's much work it's not hard but most of
[13:34] like the inbound or homebound people
that you said that I don't know who they
[13:39] would be but do they even have computer
I mean is there anybody around here that
[13:56] can't get out the the understanding
Nancy is this at some point in time we
[14:03] all as citizens of Belton need to be
able to be responsive to the needs of
[14:08] other people we can invite people to
come to the meeting sometimes they
[14:12] sometimes they can just like the city of
Alton group that's now 530 some people
[14:21] and they talk about what it is that's
going on that concerns them that made
[14:26] the survey group we're talking about
that the last time people are talking
[14:32] about what it is they want how they feel
about things and things are being put
[14:36] together so Elkton is more digital and
involved and so on people don't
[14:44] necessarily want to come so if the four
o'clock in the morning they've realized
[14:49] that they can catch up on three or four
different meetings and then come to the
[14:54] next meeting then that would make it
better for them
[14:58] it's know-nothing off of us we're here
having a meeting
[15:03] they're just able to see it at their
leisure in its entirety can come back
[15:10] and ask questions just like David and I
were talking earlier being able to talk
[15:14] to people yeah people in our Ward we
talk to people that are all over the
[15:19] place so people want to do it people are
excited about being able to see it make
[15:24] it happen it's not my thought is other
people saying this Hank
[15:36] fuller is involved in town and has
things going on in town he's not always
[15:40] here to meetings he he's involve in town
stealing property here but they're not
[15:49] always here so they can't make it to
meetings or you know single moms single
[15:53] dads they have a hire a babysitter to
come to our meetings why not make it so
[15:57] we can watch it at home because so the
kids can watch it at home it's a good
[16:00] learning experience
[16:12] [Music]
[16:46] [Music]
[16:58] [Music]
[17:18] the election workers Linda Hammond is
our superintendent oversee our direction
[17:30] and then we have Vicki Myers and
[17:52] gambling wares for the election
[18:01] carry clean-up day
[18:09] [Music]
so I mean you talk about that question
[19:42] so I have a guy that comes and picks up
our appliances and everything and he is
[20:07] but well last year which I guess was
okay because we've always had we've had
[20:16] if I see somebody I'll say I looking at
that time or whatever we come up with
[20:20] something but you know we go help them
go where they have stuff you know don't
[20:27] pay the $10 this guy come get it and not
give him the need an address so we were
[20:31] taking like all of our stuff so instead
of like here there anywhere we put it by
[20:35] our garage down a film in that was
placed on one side the garage well I
[20:41] don't know why but one of the neighbors
so I was there so these two old guys
[20:47] ended up coming or whatever and then she
told them to take all this stuff so in
[20:54] the day I came to pick up the stuff that
was fine so I mean not that it I mean it
[21:01] doesn't matter but I mean we did kind of
thing with him or whatever so they know
[21:11] they know they just come pick it up and
then they know I meant the other people
[21:15] that they take your stuff people is just
somebody like him that eats junk yeah
[21:23] but what I never said
oh you don't go take this stuff or
[21:27] whatever in these two guys look at all
the stuff up well then we notice that it
[21:31] was gone I was like well he must have
came early because he's going to come on
[21:35] later and so we didn't huh baby boy then
I'll send me come visa where'd you say
[21:41] that stuff is or whatever anything metal
like I see in the garbage a lot of like
[22:00] likes a fence post or like why are mean
you know like exercise equipment like
[22:07] the metal parts of that or whatever you
know there's just a lot of well like if
[22:17] you had stuff or whatever you know and
say you can take it to this one location
[22:22] you don't like it we throw article in
the paper like you know this is the
[22:26] stuff that you don't need to take to the
landfill I know it's easier just take
[22:29] yourself to the curb and even if they
separated it like this was like would
[22:34] stuff and junk stuff and this was like
no I'll stuff your stolen everything
[22:38] don't throw it all in the class and they
dig through it you know if people know
[22:43] that but I don't know if they know that
or if it's just kind of heaters tires
[23:07] tires are obviously different yes they
turned for that anything
[23:15] so they're charging what the landfill is
charging down to pick it up yes I mean
[23:20] somebody come in and pick it up because
they're want to go through and get the
[23:24] money returned form is cheaper obviously
better for the community
[23:27] it looks doesn't care yeah but what
happens is say I'm like hey I wanted to
[23:31] come pick up my stuff he misses my house
and I don't prepay folks then I still
[23:35] have a stove that would be my issue and
that happens a lot I don't know that
[23:40] people do they know that you can pay
because there's it's done and they're
[23:43] still sitting and that's why it's still
sitting there right and then some of
[23:55] these guys already grounded so I mean I
do the ll probably you know as far as
[24:01] moving to one location and some people
don't have that ability to move right
[24:05] you know we get call our to the corner
then we have no way to call it somewhere
[24:10] else okay would he be okay with paper
[24:21] you know maybe you can say if you have
appliances you want picked up could you
[24:26] could they come to the office and get
the address instead of I don't know what
[24:34] the easiest yeah I mean or they could
call me too or they leave of me or I
[24:40] don't because I can't contact me and we
can worry about what he thinks would be
[24:44] good well that's what he said he would
welcome to town he'll give it up you
[24:48] tell him the address let them get but
the thing is like I think like this
[24:54] happens or whatever you know that could
give him addresses are people you know
[24:57] and then he goes and these other people
are driving around and he just said I'm
[25:01] voting if they have a spot you know that
like he would come to pick it up who you
[25:06] have a trailer he's got several trailers
and he
[25:08] there or problem with that big need for
the people to get it to it right that
[25:15] would be the issue there but then maybe
addresses or whatever very like we could
[25:22] get some volunteers and stuff that you
know I think we could do that probably
[25:29] you know maybe a schooler like today had
a couple of kids that showed up to help
[25:36] with the food thing and I was like I
think it was wonderful the neighborhood
[25:43] with me and we make deliveries and they
helped in everything but it gives the
[25:47] kids an idea of what's going on cuz they
like well what's this for it you know we
[25:53] talked all about that and and when we
went around to deliver and stuff you
[25:57] know some of them answered the door and
they're like all so grateful and give
[26:00] them a hug and I just don't know if
people realize how they pull people out
[26:05] of that it's like
[26:11] people cry well that's just you can let
me know what you wanna do I probably
[26:19] should just once you talk to him have
him contact her and they could just hold
[26:34] it and not wanting a new yarder right
[26:39] I'd like to see more of this community
service kids and Stephanie
[26:46] I think well I think but no I think it
would go through the school bag if we
[26:56] approach him and say you know we could
sum up with this and well today that
[27:10] they was Karla was walking down the hall
and she's seen them guys and she said
[27:13] hey you guys want a little job today and
they're like well what is it and she
[27:18] kind of said no yeah sure I'm not saying
that to do this well every time
[27:28] something comes up we should be into
this I'm not saying like you guys it's
[27:33] like any committee I mean just whether
it's the better anyplace for the better
[27:39] of Elkin I'm not saying this your job
for public servants it's our
[27:44] responsibility to help our community and
stuff and we I think we should start a
[27:51] volunteer Facebook page and then we
volunteer opportunities you can say hey
[27:55] there's a volunteer opportunity to help
defeating South electronic sign up below
[27:59] and everybody comments okay anyone
approached the school because taking
[28:04] those shirts that Melissa made that told
Jody I said well what do you use it to
[28:07] give the flu toy interested we'll play
boxes and whatever and I said well I'm
[28:12] going to make these shirts and then that
it's like a shopping bag you'd only put
[28:16] your stuff in or whatever and they can
reuse them because in the last day you
[28:20] cannot have pasta bakes they
sucker they do that whatever and she
[28:25] started this thing it was such a big
thing that they have like ten ladies
[28:29] they get together they take these shirts
kind of apart make shopping backs they
[28:33] take them to all the stores and okay we
receive an application from the county
[28:59] for air commending Jones from there
building up burned down last summer so
[29:03] they're asking us to obey $229 and 31
cents of their taxes for that loss the
[29:24] tax abatement for Erik Jones $1.51 on
favor all right steakhouse we've got the
[29:45] okay to tear that down we've had two
bids for that
[29:52] [Music]
[30:08] [Music]
[30:19] the other you know or $2,000 the
difference what's the plan Phil cause
[30:27] yeah we try and decide one we're trying
to have it take it down by I think
[30:37] myself we should wait until the middle
of a for myself that way we could
[30:44] possibly get the trees stumps dug out at
the same time yeah you know so they
[30:50] don't know if double D does it they
wouldn't have to bring an excavator back
[30:56] to take them because it's kind of got to
get an excavator to get them tree stumps
[31:00] out and all the way they've got a place
they can take on well we don't know even
[31:09] on the number trees are already top
stones on the outside of the sidewalk
[31:17] they're buried I know there was I think
they're probably more than I think there
[31:26] was six or seven on the east side and
there's more than that over here on the
[31:31] west side on the south yeah but the
mayor with dreams and all that so that
[31:38] also brings up the vehicle in the garage
and I'm still in the house right
[31:43] no I didn't did you find that so wait
Connie's done with I tried to call her
[31:58] today buddy
[32:01] but doesn't a that's very clean live
stuff up in the house and then the kids
[32:06] are supposed to come in whenever I mean
nature stuff they wash stuff they took
[32:11] furniture all that started the kids were
supposed to come in whatever
[32:14] [Music]
[32:25] we could go in there as well I just know
what you guys did with blue box Austin
[33:40] and I know the kids went in there and
they trashed it and stuff like that way
[33:43] that is like just no I know that but I
mean understand there's so good stuff
[33:52] into our furniture and stuff like that
and Jack Harrison asked us we went over
[33:56] there and got like a seaweed and some
different things or whatever it was like
[34:01] and they will agree because I think you
got nothing there was a lot of nice
[34:07] furniture and
[34:14] [Music]
[34:25] for the city because there's so many
different places I usually actually do
[35:22] the thing I was just talking about the
Empress old American you know that thing
[35:26] time to the grouping together that can
be done you know I think that we just
[35:52] put the money in
or whatever you know you give it to the
[35:58] community club because they give up so
much money scholarships
[36:03] yeah so that would be but then it would
be someplace and everybody would have
[36:11] access to it you guys for soccer and so
on so forth but they're designated and
[36:16] it's all good people can see where it's
going so we did the thing whatever money
[36:21] comes we could probably say that we're
allowing the community club
[36:36] Judy option and collect proceeds but
ourselves doing the auction and just the
[37:00] care center so you can use something
like that to where you just kind of put
[37:04] it out there and then maybe if it's
furniture and stuff you could price it
[37:07] at this other things that it sounded
like and witnesses they you know is this
[37:33] garbage that's what I mean everybody
thinks that house is such trash it's
[37:38] like gather when part didn't have a hole
in it there's water in there or whatever
[37:43] but you'd be surprised how that stuff
that's not I mean it doesn't sneak in
[37:47] there you don't find any most crap or
any of that kind of stuff earth I mean
[37:53] other than their kids at most
[Music]
[38:03] Yeah Yeah right
[38:58] the meeting is Tuesday
[39:08] - do we choose we start under city we've
sent a letter to Jim about the car
[39:17] whether he'll get back to us or not you
want you better Kristen
[39:38] talk to the kids or whoever was kinda
stay
[39:55] well he was we don't we don't think they
own the we don't we have we are have the
[40:26] optimization to tear down the buildings
in exchange for tearing down the
[40:30] building for the city I said they should
give us away I went out of the state
[40:37] because of the state has a same way of
the buildings you know we really would
[41:15] have to I've heard others you know
different ones and we like them you know
[41:21] but we really can't just let one come in
and take
[41:32] [Music]
