1
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:16,679
Oh yeah.

2
00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:16,679
Extremely

3
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,800
mildly

4
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,480
guys.

5
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,280
» Yeah.

6
00:00:52,399 --> 00:00:55,640
He's wrong.

7
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,600
» But he doesn't have

8
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:08,439
no issue.

9
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,240
So

10
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,439
» I don't understand why there's a big

11
00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:25,640
deal about this

12
00:01:21,439 --> 00:01:25,640
» Now should be number one.

13
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:33,320
» It's in the file.

14
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:33,320
» I have the Google thing in the file.

15
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:41,320
» Yeah. Well, no. I saw Michelle today got

16
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:41,320
all these

17
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:10,879
Yeah, I'm wondering how

18
00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:13,879
» They got if they don't They do this

19
00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:13,879
service.

20
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,720
» Um, so actually

21
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,080
everyone, uh, I don't know if we need to

22
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:26,680
have rise, but we're going to do the

23
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,680
swearing in of our two new trustees.

24
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Perfect.

25
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:07,040
I le Rivera

26
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:09,120

state of New York and that I will

00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:22,280
faithfully start the duties of trustee

00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:22,280

32
00:03:35,519 --> 00:03:40,000

00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,639
So, just so everybody's aware, I'm going

41
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,959
to be standing tonight. My muscle in the

42
00:04:16,639 --> 00:04:21,040
back of my leg is locking up and I will

43
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:22,800
probably throw myself off the chair, so

44
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,000
I'm going to stretch it out as it comes

45
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:29,440

46
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:33,360

Um,

00:04:59,199 --> 00:05:04,800
we're going to start off with a bit of a

63
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:08,320
moment of silence. Uh, Ellenville lost a

64
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:11,120
long time public servant, um,

65
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:14,560
Bill

66
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:16,000
Bill Riley. Um, just have a moment of

67
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,720
silence and I'm gonna ask the police

68
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,880
chief to come up and speak on Bill speak

69
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:23,880
about Billy

70
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,880
that.

71
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,360
Chief,

72
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:39,039
» My condolences on behalf of the Bill

73
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,600
Police Department go out to his family u

74
00:05:39,039 --> 00:05:45,520
particularly his wife of 39 years Janina

75
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:47,280
and all three sons and their

76
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,520
spouses or significant others and his

77
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:51,440
grandchildren as well and also to all

78
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,840
his friends and to his family here at

79
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:56,240
the Humble Police Department. Sergeant

80
00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:58,400
Riley passed away peacefully on December

81
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,400
4th, surrounded by his family after

82
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:04,560
suffering a long battle uh with

83
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:07,120
Parkinson's disease. Sergeant Riley uh

84
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,960
served and served his country proudly in

85
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:13,360
the United States Army First Cavalry

86
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:15,680
Division. Uh from 1966 until 1969, he

87
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:18,880
served in Vietnam as a helicopter

88
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,000
gunner. Uh some things you learn about

89
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,560
people that you worked with. I worked

90
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,840
with Bill for 10 years from 1987 till

91
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,520
1997 upon his retirement after he served

92
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:29,520
26 years here with the Village Elbow

93
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:32,160
Police Department. But some things go

94
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:34,160
unspoken. Bill knew that my father um

95
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,680
had served three tours in Vietnam and my

96
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,600
father served as United States Navy

97
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,319
medic and was killed in action in

98
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,000
Vietnam. Um but we rarely spoke about

99
00:06:40,319 --> 00:06:44,800
Vietnam. Bill never ever spoke about

100
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:47,039
Vietnam, nor did he speak about anything

101
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,919
that he had gone through. But upon his

102
00:06:47,039 --> 00:06:53,440
death, I learned that Bill was um a true

103
00:06:49,919 --> 00:06:56,800
testament to an American hero, an ele

104
00:06:53,440 --> 00:07:00,080
icon. Uh while serving as a helicopter

105
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:02,080
gunner uh in Vietnam in the theater of

106
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:05,680
Vietnam, his helicopter came under

107
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:07,759
hostile enemy fire. Uh he was forced his

108
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,720
his helicopter was forced to make an

109
00:07:07,759 --> 00:07:14,000
emergency landing. And though injured,

110
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:16,319
Bill took his gun and continued to fire

111
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:20,560
uh at the enemy until reinforcements

112
00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:22,080
arrived. Um at which time the situation

113
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,599
was brought under control. But his

114
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:28,400
actions undoubtedly saved the lives of

115
00:07:25,599 --> 00:07:31,599
some of his crew and those uh that were

116
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,840
in the near uh vicinity. And for that

117
00:07:31,599 --> 00:07:37,360
action, Bill Riley was awarded the

118
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:41,919
Bronze Star, the Purple Heart, and the

119
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:44,880
American the Military Air Medal Military

120
00:07:41,919 --> 00:07:46,720
Medal for Valor. Uh he also received

121
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,720
four other medals while he was over

122
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,720
there. But again, I worked for 10 years.

123
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,240
He never spoke about that things that

124
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,000
was in his past. But what he did do when

125
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,680
upon his retire or upon his retirement

126
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,879
from the service was he came here to

127
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:01,199
Ellenville, New York. Um and he uh

128
00:07:58,879 --> 00:08:04,240
served in the Yville Police Department

129
00:08:01,199 --> 00:08:07,120
where then uh OJ Shilly uh his wife

130
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:10,000
Mary's here. Um Bill served for the next

131
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:12,400
26 years in the police department under

132
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:15,919
various different mayors uh Jeff

133
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:18,879
Kathlin, Elliot Arvac u that that were

134
00:08:15,919 --> 00:08:21,599
here uh during his uh tenure while he's

135
00:08:18,879 --> 00:08:23,360
served here. Uh, Bill rose to the rank

136
00:08:21,599 --> 00:08:25,120
of um he went through the rank of

137
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,680
detective and then became a police

138
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:30,080
sergeant uh until his uh until he

139
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,159
retired in 1997. He served this

140
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:35,360
community with pride, distinction, with

141
00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:37,440
honor and with dedication. Uh he will be

142
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,959
sorely missed by his family and

143
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,599
certainly by the members of the Elville

144
00:08:38,959 --> 00:08:44,800
Police Department. It was an honor to

145
00:08:41,599 --> 00:08:46,480
have served with Bill and even a greater

146
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:50,240
honor to know what he had gone through

147
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:53,600
and never talked about the unspoken. Um,

148
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:55,120
so I'd like to uh just again offer

149
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:59,279
another moment of silence if we could

150
00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:03,600
all stand in tribute to Sergeant Riley.

151
00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:05,440
End of watch, December 4th, 2025. Rest

152
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:08,600
in peace, our brother. We'll take it

153
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,600
from here.

154
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,760
» Thank you all.

155
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,519
Chief, I'll have you, if you don't mind,

156
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:22,399
provide a police report on your

157
00:09:19,519 --> 00:09:24,720
» Sure. Um, the Aville Police Department

158
00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:27,600
um conducted their annual firearms

159
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,279
training along with light low light

160
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,720
shooting, but that's basically shooting

161
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:36,000
in the dark um training. It's just very

162
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:38,399
low light under stressful situations. We

163
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:40,640
also did the escalation training. We did

164
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:43,519
some training on our supers, which is

165
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:46,959
our bean bag, less lethal force. Uh we

166
00:09:43,519 --> 00:09:49,360
did go over article 35. Uh we did do uh

167
00:09:46,959 --> 00:09:51,279
use of force. We did crime scene. Uh we

168
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,120
try to get as much as we can to save the

169
00:09:51,279 --> 00:09:54,640
village money. Uh but we have to do

170
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,800
these trainings mayor and to the board

171
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,800
and to the new board members training is

172
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:01,200
of the utmost importance because a

173
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:04,160
well-trained police department is a well

174
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:07,120
disciplined police department. And to

175
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:09,120
steal a coin a phrase from a certain

176
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,680
member that's in the audience I won't

177
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:14,560
look at him too hard. Elliot uh if you

178
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:17,200
can't measure it, you cannot manage it.

179
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:18,800
Uh I'll remember those words forever. So

180
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,839
uh we did a lot of different trainings.

181
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:24,640
Uh we did some uh trainings in juvenile

182
00:10:21,839 --> 00:10:27,680
um the new juvenile laws, raise the age,

183
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:29,519
uh you know, we did uh some other stuff.

184
00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:33,760
We are planning a future training for

185
00:10:29,519 --> 00:10:36,240
January which will incorporate um a long

186
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,440
segment on how to deal with people who

187
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:41,040
are suffering uh mental health crisises.

188
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:44,800
uh and also those that are afflicted

189
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:46,480
with autism. And uh we will learn, you

190
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,240
know, we

191
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,279
a lot of tragedies occur in the police

192
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,079
world because of a lack of

193
00:10:49,279 --> 00:10:54,800
understanding. Not so much that they uh

194
00:10:52,079 --> 00:10:56,160
are not u able to handle it. It's just a

195
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,399
lack of understanding when you get into

196
00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,000
a situation and recognizing that the

197
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:03,279
person you're dealing with is having a

198
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:05,200
mental mental health crisis. We have a

199
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:08,800
lot of mental health arrests here and

200
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:10,720
we've been very fortunate um that we

201
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,800
haven't had any fatalities as a result

202
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,920
of those encounters with that of police

203
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:18,800
officers. Uh I will tell you that my

204
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,800
philosophy is and I tell this to all the

205
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,480
patrols. We just did it on Saturday. You

206
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,760
get a mental health crisis, somebody's

207
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,000
in the house by themselves threatening

208
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:28,880
to kill themselves, rope it off and call

209
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,600
an adult. It's a fancy word for set up a

210
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:34,800
perimeter and call your supervisor. Uh

211
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:36,399
time is our friend. Time is our friend.

212
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,160
There is no need to go in if the

213
00:11:36,399 --> 00:11:39,839
person's in there by themselves and

214
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,640
threatening to hurt themselves. The only

215
00:11:39,839 --> 00:11:45,920
person they can hurt are themselves. So

216
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:47,839
for our purposes, we will always

217
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,360
air on the side of caution. We will back

218
00:11:47,839 --> 00:11:51,839
off. We will set up a perimeter. We're

219
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,839
calling for uh crisis negotiators and we

220
00:11:51,839 --> 00:11:55,839
will negotiate with that person as long

221
00:11:53,839 --> 00:11:58,160
as it takes to hopefully get a

222
00:11:55,839 --> 00:12:00,399
successful conclusion and have that

223
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,000
person remain alive and everybody else

224
00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:04,079
remain alive and get that person the

225
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,320
mental health that they need. Uh that

226
00:12:04,079 --> 00:12:07,920
has been my philosophy. at no, you know,

227
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,600
and at no time will we differentiate

228
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,040
from that. But we are going to do, you

229
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,360
know, we have to have some recognition

230
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,800
from, you know, being able to recognize

231
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,399
and have the mental health professionals

232
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,560
come in, give us some more training.

233
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:21,680
Also, those afflicted with autism get an

234
00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:23,120
understanding for that. um and uh get

235
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:24,160
just a further understanding for some

236
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,120
other trainings that we're going to

237
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:30,839
conduct uh in January uh because it is

238
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,839
very important to

239
00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:39,000
» You're going to probably have somebody

240
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,000
from our holster count mental health.

241
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,800
Um and we also have we'll have Claire

242
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,800
Pville come down from the county

243
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,959
attorney's office to do training on

244
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:49,360
dealing with juvenile. You saw, most of

245
00:12:46,959 --> 00:12:52,560
you saw that we had some some very

246
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:55,519
serious incidents occurred from October

247
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:57,920
about October 17th through uh the end of

248
00:12:55,519 --> 00:13:01,040
November. Uh dealing with a lot of uh

249
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:06,000
juveniles. Um it came to a point where

250
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:08,160
it was uh we needed to um make some uh

251
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,760
substantial arrests, number of arrests,

252
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,360
but we also needed to take the approach

253
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,040
that there's got to be something going

254
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,160
on in the in in the home, right? We have

255
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,959
these things. We want to look at what

256
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,560
the actual underlying problem is. So the

257
00:13:16,959 --> 00:13:20,399
approach we're taking is that every time

258
00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:22,959
we get a juvenile case, we're calling

259
00:13:20,399 --> 00:13:24,560
CBS, we're calling mobile mental health,

260
00:13:22,959 --> 00:13:26,880
and we're calling the Department of

261
00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:29,360
Probation to come down and assist us. Uh

262
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,079
we will do that in every single incident

263
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,560
until we get the u you know results of

264
00:13:32,079 --> 00:13:36,079
compliance from these juveniles. Uh some

265
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:37,440
of those incidents were very serious. I

266
00:13:36,079 --> 00:13:39,440
want to take my hat off to the members

267
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:42,320
of the Elville Police Department. They

268
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:44,639
were under uh two officers were under

269
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:47,760
serious arrest in McDonald's. Uh they

270
00:13:44,639 --> 00:13:49,920
were surrounded and these juveniles um

271
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:52,560
provoked them and attacked them and spit

272
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:55,440
at them and the officers maintained

273
00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:58,160
their composure. They did not engage uh

274
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,839
in any excessive force. They did what uh

275
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,839
was called upon them and they used their

276
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:03,279
training to do so. So I wanted to take

277
00:14:01,839 --> 00:14:04,959
my hat off to them. We had a lot of

278
00:14:03,279 --> 00:14:07,199
other incidents that I put on Facebook

279
00:14:04,959 --> 00:14:09,360
as well. You saw that. Uh, so it's been

280
00:14:07,199 --> 00:14:11,120
a very busy couple of months. Um, also

281
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:14,320
we've had some manpower issues which I

282
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:16,639
talk to you about, some injuries

283
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,480
going forward. So that's about it.

284
00:14:16,639 --> 00:14:20,240
That's enough for now. But I do on

285
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,320
behalf of the police department, I don't

286
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,639
see any of you. We do wish you a very

287
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:27,440
happy and safe holiday season. And

288
00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:29,680
please remember that if you must drink,

289
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:32,320
do not drive. But have a good time.

290
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:35,120
» Yes, Chief. Um, and quickly because I'll

291
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,480

if you will. Um, there's a lot of moving

297
00:14:45,839 --> 00:14:50,079

together, but

307
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,959
» It's my pleasure.

» Thanks. Um,

309
00:15:10,959 --> 00:15:16,560

00:26:55,919 --> 00:27:00,400

00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,760
have have her and I appreciate your

586
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:06,440

587
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:06,440
» Thank you, sir. Um

588
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:19,400
check um couple years back Christmas.

589
00:27:20,799 --> 00:27:28,960
So I'm looking to come 13 around six and

590
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:30,559
some float by band we've done in the

591
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:33,679
past. So, I'm looking for pretty much

592
00:27:30,559 --> 00:27:35,919
permissions to be able to do this. You

593
00:27:33,679 --> 00:27:39,279
may remember a band going around years

594
00:27:35,919 --> 00:27:41,440
ago. Okay. So, the band kind of went

595
00:27:39,279 --> 00:27:44,000
over time and I guess put back together

596
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:51,240
again this year. We're back on a float

597
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:51,240
and we're going through it kind of break

598
00:27:51,360 --> 00:27:57,200
little sphere. So,

599
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:59,200
» This float will be driving around.

600
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:01,600
» Yes, we did.

601
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:04,559
Um, we used to go to his escort and they

602
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:07,279
would take us down and they would end up

603
00:28:04,559 --> 00:28:08,960
at the canal. I mean, canal

604
00:28:07,279 --> 00:28:11,360
» East.

605
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,760
» Yeah. Over by D house.

606
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:16,159
» We stop there, play 15 songs or 10 songs

607
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:19,480
and then we come back, unload, and go to

608
00:28:16,159 --> 00:28:19,480
the next location.

609
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,679
» It starts at the bank by where the end

610
00:28:21,279 --> 00:28:24,080
is.

611
00:28:21,679 --> 00:28:26,000
» Okay. goes down, goes open the back,

612
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,080
comes back down, it comes back down

613
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:31,600
road, comes across nine, comes back

614
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:33,039
through here, and then back to the bank.

615
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,919
» How long is it usually?

616
00:28:33,039 --> 00:28:38,000
» I would say 45 minutes.

617
00:28:35,919 --> 00:28:40,640
» Mayor Kaplan, you don't mind me leaning

618
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:43,600
into previous experience? Um, do you

619
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:45,679
recall this event uh in years past or

620
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,279
this individual act occurring?

621
00:28:45,679 --> 00:28:50,559
» Used to do it with Vinnie

622
00:28:47,279 --> 00:28:54,080
» Yeah. Yeah, it was. Do you remember what

623
00:28:50,559 --> 00:28:56,159
the village may have done to uh grant

624
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,080
said permission? Do they require any

625
00:28:56,159 --> 00:28:58,720
insurance, certificate of insurance or

626
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,640
anything?

627
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:03,039
» Of course, you should review with the

628
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:06,039
chief of police to make sure the roof is

629
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:06,039
appropriate.

630
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:13,679
There should be some insurance.

631
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:14,480
» Thank you. Um, so I spoke to chief said,

632
00:29:13,679 --> 00:29:16,640
he was okay.

633
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:18,799
» Okay. So, let's maybe we can hop on a

634
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,480
phone call uh tomorrow with the police

635
00:29:18,799 --> 00:29:22,880
chief if that's okay. We'll just kind of

636
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:25,600
go over everything. Um we'll discuss

637
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,880
some of the other details. Thank you.

638
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,880
» Thank you.

639
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,600
» Michael, can I check?

640
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,919
» What's up?

641
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:35,360
» How are you?

642
00:29:31,919 --> 00:29:39,360
» A CZ Y.

643
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:42,399
Mr. Mayor, I I would motion for for

with the chief, you know, especially

646
00:29:44,399 --> 00:29:48,279
since he's done

647
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:55,520
village

648
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:58,159
and long as the chief, you know, has

649
00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:01,360
worked out all the details with him and

650
00:29:58,159 --> 00:30:03,919
feels comfortable to do so, I I I would

be willing to motion for approval

652
00:30:03,919 --> 00:30:08,080

uh the chiefs of the text.

654
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,080
» Sure. And we'll discuss some of the

655
00:30:09,919 --> 00:30:13,840
other particulars. I may ask actually

656
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,720
truthfully if we could maybe for a

657
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,200
special meeting.

658
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,679
» Yeah.

659
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,440
» Just to verify the details just because

660
00:30:17,679 --> 00:30:19,840
there's number of components to this.

661
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,679
» Okay.

662
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,399
» That's okay. Try to put that together

663
00:30:21,679 --> 00:30:22,880
very quickly.

664
00:30:22,399 --> 00:30:25,200
» All right.

665
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,600
» Okay. Thank you.

666
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:30,080
» Um there anyone else here to speak to

667
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:34,440
the board tonight?

668
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,440
What's your name, sir? That was most

669
00:30:34,799 --> 00:30:39,320
Hi everybody. Hello.

670
00:30:40,159 --> 00:30:46,399
» My name is Carlo Gonzalez. Uh we bought

671
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:48,880
a house uh six years ago um in the bill

672
00:30:46,399 --> 00:30:51,360
and um we didn't have a good time. We

673
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:54,159
used the house um in the holidays or day

674
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:56,720
out, you know, when I had and I think I

675
00:30:54,159 --> 00:30:59,840
did a violation. I don't know the rules

676
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:01,120
and um I live in the Bronx. We use the

677
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:05,360
house only in the weekends, you know,

678
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:06,799
and uh and u my daughter has this these

679
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,960
pets, you know, that are that are not

680
00:31:06,799 --> 00:31:10,880
supposed to have it. But this is a

681
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,840
chickens, but not regular chickens. This

682
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:17,039
is a micro samaras chickens. This the

683
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:18,960
size of pione we keep it in the our

684
00:31:17,039 --> 00:31:22,080
basement. Sometimes we release in in the

685
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:25,120
summer time. This is a indoor chickens.

686
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,960
Um they don't survive outside. So, I

687
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,520
want to ask, you know, um I talked to

688
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:33,360
Dan about about this and my house is the

689
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:35,679
last house in the in that um in the exit

690
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,760
of the of the township.

691
00:31:35,679 --> 00:31:42,080
Um I don't have neighbors. My neighbor

692
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:43,679
is like 100 ft away from my house and I

693
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:47,600
don't have any issues, but I think I

694
00:31:43,679 --> 00:31:49,600
broke the rule and I u I uh I understand

695
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:52,240
I had to ask you the board, you know, if

696
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,960
I can have this one this kind of pets in

697
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:58,399
my basement or motor

698
00:31:54,960 --> 00:32:01,120
And just just to clarify, can you tell

699
00:31:58,399 --> 00:32:05,440
us the code as it rel

700
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:07,039
when I drove up to uh Pine Street, I saw

701
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:09,840
the chickens out on the road and they

702
00:32:07,039 --> 00:32:12,080
ran up the driveway to his house.

703
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:15,440
» This house is literally the last one on

704
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:18,799
Pine Street for water department and

705
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:22,799
it's up on a hill. Got

706
00:32:18,799 --> 00:32:24,720
unusually large property uh for for the

707
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:27,679
village.

708
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:31,679
Um, I spoke to him this morning. He did

709
00:32:27,679 --> 00:32:33,600
pay uh the fine of for having chickens

710
00:32:31,679 --> 00:32:35,279
illegally in the village, but I

711
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:38,320
suggested he come here and try to get

712
00:32:35,279 --> 00:32:40,640
and ask for an exemption because one,

713
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,880
he's in an area that nobody will even

714
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,039
know that he has it. He knows he has to

715
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,960
keep him penned up. They can't be

716
00:32:45,039 --> 00:32:50,080
running free on his property is what I

717
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:52,000
what I told him. And I personally don't

718
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,919
see any reason why he shouldn't get the

719
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:56,960
exemption, especially since they're for

720
00:32:53,919 --> 00:32:59,519
his daughter's uh while teaching. She's

721
00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:02,399
she has special needs and this these are

722
00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:04,159
actually her service animals.

723
00:33:02,399 --> 00:33:06,559
» I was going to ask

724
00:33:04,159 --> 00:33:12,120
» Yeah, we have a doctor letter, you know,

725
00:33:06,559 --> 00:33:12,120
with my daughter has OCD

726
00:33:12,399 --> 00:33:16,240
and stuff

727
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:19,720
» And that's as big as they get. This this

728
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,720
month old adult

729
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,640
if you can provide for the board what is

730
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,440
the current code as it relates to

731
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:32,720
» The current code is there is no no farm

732
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:35,440
animals chickens ducks any type of foul

733
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:40,159
or hooked animals allowed in the village

734
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:43,440
at all. Um, I did speak to you to the

735
00:33:40,159 --> 00:33:47,919
village board some time ago about maybe

736
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:50,080
altering that that uh uh law to allow a

737
00:33:47,919 --> 00:33:52,240
certain amount of chickens because a lot

738
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:55,840
of people the way the eggs were going at

739
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:58,640
that time it's their way of getting

740
00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:01,360
eggs. Uh

741
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:04,320
he's a perfect example of why I talked

742
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:06,720
about amending the law.

743
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:10,639
Um, so I think before

744
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:12,879
» We have another discussion

745
00:34:10,639 --> 00:34:15,839
side of this, but I I do appreciate

746
00:34:12,879 --> 00:34:17,599
coming from the board and actually bring

747
00:34:15,839 --> 00:34:21,679
» May I see that?

748
00:34:17,599 --> 00:34:26,399
» It's from a field standpoint this letter

749
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:29,399
serving need then start to begin the

750
00:34:26,399 --> 00:34:29,399
day.

751
00:34:31,359 --> 00:34:37,760
So the ICD code here lists obsessive.

752
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:41,359
» Yeah. So the ICD code lists that these

753
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:45,599
animals serve a purpose um and they

754
00:34:41,359 --> 00:34:48,000
provide her a service. So I would

755
00:34:45,599 --> 00:34:50,960
» I would go your route and grant the

756
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:54,159
exemption only because then we start

757
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:55,679
weaning into ADA restrictions and this

758
00:34:54,159 --> 00:34:57,520
is from a licensed solution.

759
00:34:55,679 --> 00:34:58,960
» Yeah. So my my recommendation would be

760
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,800
is we have a discussion with our

761
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:06,000
attorney, have a further discussion with

762
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:08,240
Dan and not inhibit an unhended

763
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,640
consequence out of a blanket action.

764
00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:14,800
» I would just suggest that uh the board

765
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:17,440
adopt a resolution that um the use of

766
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,960
the chickens is

767
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,599
» In the in between now and the next

768
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:24,000
discussion period will not constitute a

769
00:35:21,599 --> 00:35:25,599
violation. So, because right now he can

770
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,240
be served with another violation for

771
00:35:25,599 --> 00:35:29,920
having the tickets at this point. Uh, so

772
00:35:28,240 --> 00:35:31,359
if the board,

773
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,720
» Regardless of which way you're leaning,

774
00:35:31,359 --> 00:35:34,240
if you want to have another discussion,

775
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:35,920
but you don't want him to be penalized

776
00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:37,920
for the board's time and fully

777
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:40,400
considering the options, you would adopt

778
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:43,440
a resolution to that effect.

779
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:46,240
Um so with that if I can have a motion

780
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:48,960
uh to adopt Amy if you can provide the

781
00:35:46,240 --> 00:35:52,480
person for us clearly again

782
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:55,520
» Um that the uh how many are there?

783
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,960
» We we've some four now we have eight but

784
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,960
we're going to keep it like that we

785
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,640
start to give away and I'm saying you

786
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,400
know this is only in the weekends or

787
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,480
holidays when I come here. I live in the

788
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:06,800
Bronx they doing really well in my

789
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,320
basement. If I I can bring it here, I

790
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,000
just keep it in in the city, you know,

791
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,320
and u I don't get in trouble, you know.

792
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,839
Like

793
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,119
» What's the property address?

794
00:36:11,839 --> 00:36:17,760
» Uh 30 Pine Street.

795
00:36:13,119 --> 00:36:22,480
» 30 Pine. So just at the uh

796
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:26,240
30 Pine Street um shall be permitted to

797
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:29,280
uh maintain the current number of micro

798
00:36:26,240 --> 00:36:30,800
chickens at the property until the board

799
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,359
reconvenes

800
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,640
uh on the issue, which whenever the next

801
00:36:33,359 --> 00:36:35,040
board meeting is. I don't know what that

802
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,760
is.

803
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:39,760
» Shouldn't should it include the reason

804
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:42,640
and the purpose you know that we are

805
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:45,839
allowing it? Yeah, I mean if you want to

806
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,160
expound upon that deputy mayor or no I

807
00:36:45,839 --> 00:36:48,880
mean

808
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:51,839
» Yeah I would you know based upon his you

809
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:54,240
know that it would be therapeutic you

810
00:36:51,839 --> 00:36:57,119
know um I don't know how you word that

811
00:36:54,240 --> 00:36:59,520
but you know for the purpose of his

812
00:36:57,119 --> 00:37:02,320
daughter who has you know

813
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:06,480
» You could just say I guess um to

814
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:11,520
consider any uh

815
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:13,839
I guess uh remedies or

816
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:16,560
I guess uh

817
00:37:13,839 --> 00:37:19,359
legal circumstances that may arise under

818
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:21,440
the Americans with Disabilities Act,

819
00:37:19,359 --> 00:37:24,240
something to that effect, if that's the

820
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:26,800
the reason as to why you're granting the

821
00:37:24,240 --> 00:37:29,520
exception. I don't know. I mean, I could

822
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:31,599
draft a actual resolution if you want so

823
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:33,119
that way it's clear as to what exactly

824
00:37:31,599 --> 00:37:33,599
and then I can circulate it to the

825
00:37:33,119 --> 00:37:35,839
board.

826
00:37:33,599 --> 00:37:38,480
» Yeah. and then you can tenatively adopt

827
00:37:35,839 --> 00:37:40,480
it and then you guys can just do um a

828
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,560
roll call vote or you know you can just

829
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,920
phone a vote because it wouldn't violate

830
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,800
the open meetings law at that point

831
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,359
because you've already had the

832
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:49,119
conversation and you approve of it in

833
00:37:47,359 --> 00:37:52,079
substance you just needed actually in

834
00:37:49,119 --> 00:37:54,160
wording as to what it says. So, just to

835
00:37:52,079 --> 00:37:57,680
clarify, this resolution would pertain

836
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:58,960
to just granting us time to have a

837
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,160
further discussion for

838
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,359
» It's not that you're permitting the

839
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,359
activity. It's just that you're not

840
00:38:01,359 --> 00:38:04,720
going to hold him in violation until the

841
00:38:03,359 --> 00:38:05,280
next discussion.

842
00:38:04,720 --> 00:38:07,359
» Okay.

843
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,320
» Without this resolution, he could direct

844
00:38:07,359 --> 00:38:10,480
him yet another fine.

845
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:12,640
» Correct. Yeah. That's the only reason I

846
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:14,720
recommend it. Just so that way it keeps

847
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,880
the status quo. What the status quo is

848
00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:18,800
that he's already paid one fine for the

849
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,960
chickens. Let's not surf him with

850
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:23,280
another fine. Please come to the board

851
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:26,720
and then that way you can actually use

852
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:31,960
your due diligence and

853
00:38:26,720 --> 00:38:31,960
that's it. Okay. Uh

854
00:38:33,119 --> 00:38:38,800
» So so that yeah I can I can have a

855
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:41,200
motion to pass that resolution to be

856
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:44,800
defined uh for further discussion uh no

857
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:46,960
later than our January uh 12th board

858
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:49,119
meeting unless we convene a board

859
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,800
meeting ahead of that date. will bring

860
00:38:49,119 --> 00:38:51,839
us into another subject that we need to

861
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,720
get to.

862
00:38:51,839 --> 00:38:53,839
» Um,

863
00:38:52,720 --> 00:38:55,760
» Michelle, you got that?

864
00:38:53,839 --> 00:38:57,920
» We'll be in touch. We'll be in touch. I

865
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,200
will be in touch with Dan and Bernie

866
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,720
soon.

867
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,680
» Thank you.

868
00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:02,400
» So, I have a motion.

869
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:02,880
» Okay.

870
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,920
» Second.

871
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,920
» Second. All in favor?

872
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:12,359
» Okay. Is there anyone else here to see

873
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,359
the board tonight?

874
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:20,480
» Right. Good evening everybody. As you

875
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,720
know, my name is Doug Rolls. I am the

876
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:24,400
owner of Lights on Five Chapel Street. I

877
00:39:22,720 --> 00:39:26,560
came to the board and I want to welcome

878
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:29,680
all the new members to the board and has

879
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:31,760
a great successful time doing this. I

880
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:33,280
was very very very pleased that the

881
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:36,160
village gave me the opportunity to shut

882
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:38,560
down the street this year as for safety

883
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:40,320
and then the people that showed up was

884
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:43,040
phenomenal. We had a lot of pets here

885
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:44,720
this year which was really really great.

886
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,400
Everything worked out fine and I just

887
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:49,040
want to say thank you. Thank you. Thank

888
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:51,920
you and let's hope continue to do this

889
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:54,720
again next year. And I was approached

890
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:57,200
also by Mike to come by as like they

891
00:39:54,720 --> 00:39:58,880
have in the past and stop at my house.

892
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,200
And I said to him, "Sure, we'll have

893
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:04,240
another board meeting at the approval."

894
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:05,920
And I'm hoping that that also happens,

895
00:40:04,240 --> 00:40:07,359
you know, because when Vinnie Nairo did

896
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,440
it, it was phenomenal. He would be there

897
00:40:07,359 --> 00:40:11,359
for like 45 minutes at my house and it

898
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,359
was just wonderful.

899
00:40:11,359 --> 00:40:15,520
And also see a lot more of the community

900
00:40:13,359 --> 00:40:17,280
come out and support this. you know,

901
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,200
it's just not just me. It's the whole

902
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,119
community that supports me, you know,

903
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:23,280
and I just want to say thank you. And it

904
00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:24,480
was so great to see so many of you here

905
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,640
this year.

906
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,520
» And and so Doug, how long are the lights

907
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,359
going to be up until

908
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:32,000
» My lights are on every night until the

909
00:40:29,359 --> 00:40:34,560
end of the year from 5:30 at night right

910
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:37,200
on through. You'll have to tune tonight

911
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:39,280
88.9 FM because not all the time do I

912
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:42,320
have the radio on outside because there

913
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:43,680
is a a noise ordinance, you know. So, I

914
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,599
do try and keep it up, but on the

915
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,119
weekend it's always on. And if I'm out

916
00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:49,040
there, I'll turn it on for you. You

917
00:40:47,119 --> 00:40:52,320
know, the lights are on every night from

918
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:54,400
5:30 to 9:30, 10:00 on the weekend. And

919
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,680
come by and enjoy it because I think I

920
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:59,480
did a good job.

921
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:59,480
» You did a great job.

922
00:41:02,720 --> 00:41:09,200
» Um, Doug, I think the economic question

923
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:11,839
that we had was what's your electric?

924
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:12,960
» Um, okay. Am I electrical last year or

925
00:41:11,839 --> 00:41:14,880
this year?

926
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,760
» Don't want to know. Uh

927
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:19,119
» It's it's something I enjoy doing. So

928
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,560
» Is there anyone else here to see the

929
00:41:19,119 --> 00:41:28,359
board tonight?

930
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:28,359
» Okay. Um so discussion uh these ite

931
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:41,920
» Something broken with the Facebook. So,

932
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,680
it goes up on YouTube the next day and

933
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,599
I've been trying to figure out what the

934
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:47,040
linking issue is, which why it hasn't

935
00:41:45,599 --> 00:41:47,920
been up for the last couple of weeks.

936
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,920
» Okay.

937
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:53,040
» Um,

938
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:55,040
okay. Uh, so trustees, we have in front

939
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,359
of you, and I this is basically just to

940
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:59,280
kind of immedate what we discussed uh

941
00:41:57,359 --> 00:42:00,720
the last meeting. We do have two new

942
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:03,680
trustees. So, I just wanted to bring it

943
00:42:00,720 --> 00:42:05,440
up uh as a a minor discussion item uh

944
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,920
for you both to have the language in

945
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:10,560
front of you um and then have some time

946
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:13,839
to consider it uh at our next meeting.

947
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:15,839
So, it relates to uh legislation on

948
00:42:13,839 --> 00:42:17,440
vacant and abandoned properties in the

949
00:42:15,839 --> 00:42:19,200
village of Ellenville. What you have

950
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:22,160
before you is a legislation that the

951
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:24,720
city of Kingston passed in 2016. I had a

952
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:27,920
good conversation with Mayor Noble

953
00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:31,200
number of weeks ago about it. um they

954
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:32,880
adopted their language uh as a light

955
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,119
modification on what the city of Port

956
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:38,319
Jervis had implemented a couple years

957
00:42:35,119 --> 00:42:41,359
before them. Um the mayor has felt it

958
00:42:38,319 --> 00:42:45,280
has been very effective. Um he has felt

959
00:42:41,359 --> 00:42:48,640
that uh you know it achieved the result

960
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:52,640
that they were looking for was either

961
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:54,560
generate revenue uh as a last resort to

962
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:57,599
motivate people to get out of these

963
00:42:54,560 --> 00:43:01,040
vacant buildings or to lower their rent

964
00:42:57,599 --> 00:43:03,599
to get tenants in there or uh to sell

965
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:06,480
the property and move on. um they went

966
00:43:03,599 --> 00:43:08,640
from approximately 400 vacant buildings

967
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:11,200
down to about a hundred uh in the span

968
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,800
of the last nine years. Um I think it's

969
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,640
something reasonable uh for us to

970
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:16,720
consider. The language is actually a lot

971
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:19,599
more substantial than I expected to be

972
00:43:16,720 --> 00:43:21,280
and a lot more impactful. Um they

973
00:43:19,599 --> 00:43:23,920
basically implement through the first

974
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:27,280
number of years that the uh fee is

975
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:28,960
implemented a dollar a square foot. um

976
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,640
which again for depending on the

977
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:32,640
building could be quite a substantial

978
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,319
amount of money but to the effect that

979
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:36,480
it hopefully motivates them to do

980
00:43:34,319 --> 00:43:38,720
something with it. Um so I'd ask you

981
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,160
guys to review it over the next number

982
00:43:38,720 --> 00:43:43,520
of weeks and we'll have a further

983
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:46,800
discussion. Um Ian Dan I was speaking to

984
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:49,119
Dan before. I'd love to get on a call uh

985
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:51,760
with uh the city of Kingston folks to

986
00:43:49,119 --> 00:43:54,319
see if they can uh answer some of our

987
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:56,000
questions uh some of the the nuance of

988
00:43:54,319 --> 00:43:58,160
it. I know you had a couple of questions

989
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,079
about it in an email from a couple of

990
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,680
weeks ago. Um, so I'll try to schedule

991
00:44:00,079 --> 00:44:04,560
that over the next month.

992
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:07,200
» Perfect. Okay. Um, drinking water

993
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:09,520
protection program update. Uh, as you

994
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:11,839
may remember, uh, Trusty Ellis from

995
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:14,480
nearly a year ago, uh, we started to

996
00:44:11,839 --> 00:44:16,560
have our first meetings uh, with Park

997
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:18,720
Judis as a part of the state's, uh,

998
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:20,400
drinking water protection program. This

999
00:44:18,720 --> 00:44:22,880
was the second round of it. The village

1000
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:25,920
had applied and, uh, was selected to

1001
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:28,800
participate. Um we submitted the formal

1002
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:31,760
plan I want to say back in the beginning

1003
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:34,160
of July, end of June. Um we had expected

1004
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:37,440
a very quick turnaround time or Barton

1005
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:40,079
Ljudist did and the state informed us uh

1006
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,920
very quickly after that we were actually

1007
00:44:40,079 --> 00:44:44,000
going to be punted a little bit down the

1008
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:46,319
road because of a backlog of other

1009
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,640
applicants. Um they have finally started

1010
00:44:46,319 --> 00:44:51,599
to review our application. Uh they have

1011
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:53,440
provided Bart Judas some feedback. Um,

1012
00:44:51,599 --> 00:44:55,599
so you saw there was an email attached

1013
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,280
to it just to provide us an update. Uh,

1014
00:44:55,599 --> 00:45:00,720
we're hoping over the next month or so

1015
00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:02,960
that we'll finally see some motion uh on

1016
00:45:00,720 --> 00:45:06,160
either adopting that water protection

1017
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:09,520
plan or uh modifying depending on that

1018
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:12,000
state feedback. Um, third is the warming

1019
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:16,240
center. Obviously uh you know last year

1020
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:19,520
we had a a very small trial uh

1021
00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:21,520
Ellenville Regional Hospital uh uh

1022
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:24,160
provided operation services to the

1023
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:27,599
village of to the to the greater town of

1024
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:29,839
Warsing area uh funded by the county and

1025
00:45:27,599 --> 00:45:33,599
some funds through uh the town of

1026
00:45:29,839 --> 00:45:35,359
Warsing. Uh we've provided the space. Um

1027
00:45:33,599 --> 00:45:38,480
we've been trying to figure out how to

1028
00:45:35,359 --> 00:45:41,200
do that again maybe on a longer term uh

1029
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:44,480
framework. uh something that follows the

1030
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:46,319
hours that we mostly did last year. Um

1031
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,920
we need an operator though. The hospital

1032
00:45:46,319 --> 00:45:49,839
unfortunately can't step in this year.

1033
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:51,200
There was a big ask of them last year.

1034
00:45:49,839 --> 00:45:53,280
So it's understandable that they can't

1035
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:56,079
jump in like that for a a longer

1036
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:59,040
engagement. Um so we have been in

1037
00:45:56,079 --> 00:46:01,280
discussions with the operator of the uh

1038
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:03,680
city of King City based warming center

1039
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:06,880
that the county has. John isn't county

1040
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:10,400
warming center or is it a Okay, it's a

1041
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:12,480
second glacius church. Um, we've been

1042
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:15,200
speaking to our insurance company about

1043
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:16,480
some of the the nuance of it. Um, we've

1044
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:18,880
been having conversations with the

1045
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:21,280
church. Uh, county has been on the

1046
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:23,440
peripheral providing a little guidance.

1047
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:26,319
Um, and so my hope is we'll have a more

1048
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:28,160
meaningful update. Um, I would frame it

1049
00:46:26,319 --> 00:46:30,800
as this. Whatever we end up doing for

1050
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:32,960
this year will again be very much a try

1051
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:34,960
and see. There's a lot of information

1052
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:37,680
for us to glean from this. A lot of

1053
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:39,119
potential unintended consequences. Um,

1054
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:41,280
I'll be having conversation with the

1055
00:46:39,119 --> 00:46:43,280
police chief about it in more detail.

1056
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:45,920
Um, but again, I hope that we'll have a

1057
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:47,599
more meaningful update uh when we may

1058
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,920
convene and we may convene at a special

1059
00:46:47,599 --> 00:46:52,319
board meeting depending on what comes up

1060
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:54,480
uh to discuss this the details a little

1061
00:46:52,319 --> 00:46:55,359
further. That's okay guys.

1062
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,960
» Okay.

1063
00:46:55,359 --> 00:46:58,720
» Before we move on, I just don't want

1064
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,319
people to leave because after we're

1065
00:46:58,720 --> 00:47:01,839
going to take like 10 minutes and we got

1066
00:47:00,319 --> 00:47:04,800
picked for everybody. So, I didn't want

1067
00:47:01,839 --> 00:47:07,040
people to trickle out before we do

1068
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,440
congratulate our two picked up.

1069
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,880
Sorry.

1070
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:13,760
» No, absolutely. This um so so again our

1071
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:17,440
Doug our favorite uh part of the evening

1072
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:21,839
the Clinton Avenue Bridgewatch. Um so we

1073
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:25,599
have a quick update from uh BNL and uh

1074
00:47:21,839 --> 00:47:27,200
the right of way uh contractor

1075
00:47:25,599 --> 00:47:30,000
unfortunately they're still digging

1076
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:32,640
through. You saw the email um the back

1077
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:34,960
and forth uh we'll see where we get to

1078
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:37,520
and go from there. So, the key hangup is

1079
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:41,599
the right of way still.

1080
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:44,000
Okay. Uh Dan, I'm gonna speak on 55

1081
00:47:41,599 --> 00:47:47,040
North Main Street. Uh so, for everybody

1082
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:50,319
in the audience and trustees, uh this is

1083
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:53,040
the property uh that was at the former

1084
00:47:50,319 --> 00:47:55,839
Dodge dealership uh on North Main. It

1085
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:57,920
also has dilapitated mobile sign. Was it

1086
00:47:55,839 --> 00:48:00,720
» Herbs? Herbs Dodge.

1087
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:04,079
» Yeah. Um, there have been for many years

1088
00:48:00,720 --> 00:48:07,359
now a uh a laundry list of unregistered

1089
00:48:04,079 --> 00:48:10,240
vehicles parked there uh in a perimeter.

1090
00:48:07,359 --> 00:48:13,520
Uh, no license plates. Uh, certainly

1091
00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:18,240
being used for storage. I asked uh Dan

1092
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:20,240
to work with Ian to hopefully help uh

1093
00:48:18,240 --> 00:48:22,000
resolve this issue for us.

1094
00:48:20,240 --> 00:48:25,040
» All right. Well, first of all, back in

1095
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:26,960
March of 24, they were issued a ticket.

1096
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:30,079
The owner, Jack Bastion, was issued a

1097
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:32,480
ticket. Uh,

1098
00:48:30,079 --> 00:48:35,520
the ticket was technically withdrawn

1099
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:38,160
under the condition that they

1100
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:41,760
either register or remove all the

1101
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:44,160
unregistered vehicles and they get their

1102
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,920
department of motor vehicle license

1103
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:48,400
issued.

1104
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:50,160
To date, they have done neither. Uh,

1105
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:54,079
that some of the cars are gone. The new

1106
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:56,480
ones came back. Uh they were I sent them

1107
00:48:54,079 --> 00:49:01,040
a letter

1108
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:04,720
uh that I taped to the door on October

1109
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:06,319
26th. I believe it was October 21. I

1110
00:49:04,720 --> 00:49:08,319
sent them a letter, taped it to the

1111
00:49:06,319 --> 00:49:10,319
door, the front door and the garage

1112
00:49:08,319 --> 00:49:12,160
door.

1113
00:49:10,319 --> 00:49:15,440
The following Monday, those letters were

1114
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:18,319
gone. So I do know he had them. I was

1115
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:20,160
suggested by the village attorney to

1116
00:49:18,319 --> 00:49:24,720
make sure that it was registered mail

1117
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:28,160
also. So on

1118
00:49:24,720 --> 00:49:31,520
November 26,

1119
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:33,599
I wrote another letter,

1120
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:35,119
put it on their doors again, and sent it

1121
00:49:33,599 --> 00:49:37,440
registered. We have not received the

1122
00:49:35,119 --> 00:49:39,599
registered letter back, but the

1123
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:41,359
envelopes were taken down from the doors

1124
00:49:39,599 --> 00:49:44,640
again.

1125
00:49:41,359 --> 00:49:47,920
Now it's a question of

1126
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:50,400
removing the vehicles since he has not

1127
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:52,880
complied with any of the laws whether it

1128
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:56,480
was state law the DMV or the village

1129
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:58,319
zoning laws. So the next step is going

1130
00:49:56,480 --> 00:50:00,400
to be

1131
00:49:58,319 --> 00:50:02,240
a notice of a public hearing at the next

1132
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:04,160
meeting and then we'll have the public

1133
00:50:02,240 --> 00:50:07,960
hearing and we'll take it from there.

1134
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,960
» Thanks D. All right.

1135
00:50:08,559 --> 00:50:14,640
Okay. Um

1136
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:16,559
Mike, anything for the board tonight?

1137
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,920
» Okay, Mike, no, we don't have any

1138
00:50:16,559 --> 00:50:18,880
resolutions tonight. Anything for the

1139
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,599
board tonight?

1140
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:23,040
» Just what I talked about today about

1141
00:50:21,599 --> 00:50:24,640
bringing assistance today.

1142
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,240
» Okay. And so, actually, do you want to

1143
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:27,599
just quickly speak to it? You can stay

1144
00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:29,440
there. I don't want to have to get that

1145
00:50:27,599 --> 00:50:32,440
from all the way.

1146
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,440
» Okay.

1147
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:46,640
Well, the big thing happened uh Saturday

1148
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:48,319
night, Sunday morning. Somebody dumped

1149
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:51,119
some chemicals down at the plant would

1150
00:50:48,319 --> 00:50:52,480
upset the plant. Um probably going to

1151
00:50:51,119 --> 00:50:54,960
take a whole week to get out of it. We

1152
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:58,079
tried to correct this situation today.

1153
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:59,599
We'll know more about it tomorrow. Um

1154
00:50:58,079 --> 00:51:02,079
people don't understand that when you

1155
00:50:59,599 --> 00:51:04,400
dump we believe it's a feric chloride

1156
00:51:02,079 --> 00:51:07,599
which is a stripper paint stripper of

1157
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:10,319
metal. So and it was it came from the

1158
00:51:07,599 --> 00:51:12,640
Green Acres area. Don't know exactly

1159
00:51:10,319 --> 00:51:16,640
where but it came we narrowed it down to

1160
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:18,160
the Green Acres area. Um it's difficult

1161
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,480
when you have one tank and everything

1162
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:23,599
dumps into that one tank. It kills a lot

1163
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:26,160
of bugs and the bugs are what pro is

1164
00:51:23,599 --> 00:51:29,040
main particles for this process. we need

1165
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:31,359
these bugs. So, I'm asking people to be

1166
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:34,000
more aware of what they dump in the

1167
00:51:31,359 --> 00:51:36,880
system. Um, because it's going to take a

1168
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:38,880
lot of time to get this corrected and

1169
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,960
with the potential of DC not being happy

1170
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:44,280
and we start failing, it could be fines

1171
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:44,280
for the village.

1172
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:49,160
» Thanks, Mike. Any questions?

1173
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:56,079
» Okay. Um, so we will move on to

1174
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:58,640
resolutions.

1175
00:51:56,079 --> 00:52:01,200
Um, can I have a motion recommending to

1176
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:03,839
the Olter County Legislature uh to

1177
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:05,680
reappoint Victoria Mesner uh to the

1178
00:52:03,839 --> 00:52:07,680
Olster County Planning Board and to

1179
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:09,599
reappoint Benjamin Campbell uh to the

1180
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:13,200
Ultra County uh planning board as an

1181
00:52:09,599 --> 00:52:14,880
alternate for the village of Alen Hill?

1182
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:17,440
» Motion.

1183
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:19,440
» All in favor?

1184
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:21,280
» Uh very important, we have great

1185
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,880
representation up there. If you look at

1186
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,880
some of the other communities, they have

1187
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:27,200
no representation on the Olster County

1188
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:30,480
Planning Board. Uh so Cory, thank you

1189
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:31,839
for serving up there and Ben.

1190
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,880
It's good to have a face up there. Thank

1191
00:52:31,839 --> 00:52:37,040
you guys. Um

1192
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:39,599
can I have a motion authorizing payment

1193
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:41,599
in the amount of $2,470

1194
00:52:39,599 --> 00:52:44,240
as an emergency authorization for the

1195
00:52:41,599 --> 00:52:46,400
mayor to GPS for leak detection

1196
00:52:44,240 --> 00:52:47,839
services?

1197
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,920
» Motion.

1198
00:52:47,839 --> 00:52:54,000
» All in favor? I

1199
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:56,800
» Thank you. Uh a motion as has been

1200
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:59,359
currently the president uh the building

1201
00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:01,839
cancelled the December Monday 22nd

1202
00:52:59,359 --> 00:53:03,839
regularly scheduled board meeting. What

1203
00:53:01,839 --> 00:53:06,800
I would say is as we've discussed we may

1204
00:53:03,839 --> 00:53:09,920
hold a special meeting to on a couple of

1205
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:11,520
uh minor let phrase that not minor

1206
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,520
issues issues that we need to make

1207
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:15,200
address ahead of that or after before

1208
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:16,720
the next board meeting. So, a motion to

1209
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:20,720
cancel the second village board meeting

1210
00:53:16,720 --> 00:53:22,400
on December uh 22nd, Monday, which is a

1211
00:53:20,720 --> 00:53:23,920
Monday of 2025.

1212
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:26,160
» Motion second.

1213
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:28,240
» All in favor?

1214
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:30,000
» Um, number four, I'm going to modify

1215
00:53:28,240 --> 00:53:32,079
because it is an organizational

1216
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:34,480
agreement with uh Olster County

1217
00:53:32,079 --> 00:53:37,040
Community College uh college. And just

1218
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:39,119
to clarify, it is a paid internship, but

1219
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,800
we do not pay it. It will be a stipen

1220
00:53:39,119 --> 00:53:42,880
through Olter County.

1221
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:44,640
» This community say that again.

1222
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,680
» This is new. This is the first time

1223
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:50,480
we're doing this,

1224
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:52,720
» Correct? This is new. Um, we were uh a

1225
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:55,599
opportunity was brought to our attention

1226
00:53:52,720 --> 00:54:02,160
of having an intern from Sunni Olter

1227
00:53:55,599 --> 00:54:04,880
come down uh to learn uh to assist um

1228
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:07,359
and this is a great opportunity. I I do

1229
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:09,359
SYP and Y at the the high school. This

1230
00:54:07,359 --> 00:54:12,160
is obviously a different level different

1231
00:54:09,359 --> 00:54:13,680
level of education and engagement um but

1232
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:16,319
I think it's been wonderful. Mike,

1233
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:19,839
you've had many YEP and SYP kids over

1234
00:54:16,319 --> 00:54:21,920
the years um and still do. Um so I think

1235
00:54:19,839 --> 00:54:24,319
this is a great opportunity for our

1236
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:27,440
administrative uh office to contribute

1237
00:54:24,319 --> 00:54:30,400
in that way too. Um so I'll ask if I can

1238
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:33,440
have a motion uh to authorize the mayor

1239
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:35,920
uh to enter into an agreement uh with

1240
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:39,079
Olster County Community College to have

1241
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:39,079
an internship.

1242
00:54:39,119 --> 00:54:41,920
Yeah, just because it's an

1243
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:44,559
organizational agreement, I think I

1244
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:48,160
should be the signator on it.

1245
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:52,079
» Mayor, they also have um mechanics

1246
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:55,760
through both same programs can come in

1247
00:54:52,079 --> 00:54:58,000
and work underneath us and assist and

1248
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,960
learn if it's anything that the village

1249
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,280
is interested in.

1250
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:04,000
» Is this do you know who this is through?

1251
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:05,839
» This is this would be through the post.

1252
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,200
» Okay. I I'm definitely open to a

1253
00:55:05,839 --> 00:55:10,079
discussion about it. Do you have

1254
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:12,720
contacts? I I will fulfill them. I know

1255
00:55:10,079 --> 00:55:13,359
that the program for several years now.

1256
00:55:12,720 --> 00:55:15,440
So,

1257
00:55:13,359 --> 00:55:16,800
» We never entertained it. So, I never but

1258
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:20,079
it just when you brought this up, it

1259
00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:22,800
just relight the situation.

1260
00:55:20,079 --> 00:55:25,040
» Yep. Um Elliot, thank you for bringing

1261
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,640
this to our attention. Thank

1262
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:30,119
» The motion. Second.

1263
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:30,119
» All in favor?

1264
00:55:31,359 --> 00:55:33,920
» For you or

1265
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:36,559
» Just they're going to work under the

1266
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:40,119
treasures today. uh basically learning

municipal financial

1268

1269
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:46,480
Um okay. And all in favor

1270
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,160
» I

1271
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:50,880
» I

1272
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:53,599
uh a motion uh authorizing payment in

1273
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:57,920
the amount of $2,314

1274
00:55:53,599 --> 00:56:01,280
annual dues to Nikcom of the 2025 2026

1275
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:04,240
uh membership. And just for clarity nom

1276
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:05,520
is a actually if I can have a motion

1277
00:56:04,240 --> 00:56:07,920
then I'll second it for discussion

1278
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:10,400
quickly and I'll just

1279
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:13,599
uh second for discussion.

1280
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:17,440
» Okay so uh just to clarify Nikcom is a

1281
00:56:13,599 --> 00:56:19,119
consortium of uh uh municipal

1282
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:21,359
organization that provides incredible

1283
00:56:19,119 --> 00:56:23,040
resources to dill and cities. Uh there's

1284
00:56:21,359 --> 00:56:25,040
the association of towns on the other

1285
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:27,119
side of this. um they've been a great

1286
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,400
resource to me, other mayors before me,

1287
00:56:27,119 --> 00:56:31,440
other administrative staff, our

1288
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:33,040
attorney. Um so I think for the amount

1289
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,880
that they charge, we get an incredible

1290
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:37,280
amount of value out of it. We've always

1291
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:40,720
had it and I would recommend that we uh

1292
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:42,400
continue it. Okay. Uh all in favor?

1293
00:56:40,720 --> 00:56:47,520
