resolution regulating control of travel
expenses there Nancy knows more about

55
00:06:26,840 --> 00:06:33,199
that than I do we come out with new
regulations

56
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:39,479
new laws regulating how we administer
travel expenses got they set it up a

57
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:48,520
for not really just a mandate that every
municipality has to have it pass by June

58
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:53,599
30th preferably I mean from January 1st
until June 30th but preferably by June

59
00:06:51,039 --> 00:06:57,919
1st by January 1st
sorry so basically this is something

60
00:06:55,879 --> 00:07:03,680
mandated by state law we don't have any
control they mandate how much you pay

61
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,680
per mile and all that sort of

62
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:11,599
thing
discussion it's not optional right no

63
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:17,120
it's not optional it's required it's a
new law it's a law they just put in

64
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:23,280
effect I think some of our
illustrious guys in Chicago are taking

65
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,280

83
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:46,760
Hoffman yes KET
yes uh you have a we have a request from

84
00:09:43,399 --> 00:09:52,040
uh people out on on North Jackson that
corner and that's the corner of the 900

85
00:09:49,519 --> 00:09:57,120
Road and the park and it is kind of dark
they like the street light but uh you

86
00:09:55,200 --> 00:10:03,240
also have the paper work changing the
paper from the power company they want

87
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:08,720
$6,550 put up the
street which I think I I for granted the

88
00:10:06,560 --> 00:10:11,279
the corner is a little dark as far as I
know we haven't had a big accident

89
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:19,600
problem out
there 6,000 bucks inot

90
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:24,760
Street put a park near the intersection
yeah from Park that would probably that

91
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:30,160
probably better solution to look into
because this is a a pole and a light and

92
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:33,279
they want it used to be we p so much for
light and they put the light in the pole

93
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:37,120
in well several years ago they started
charging and just what they're doing is

94
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:42,480
they they're getting the fees up high
enough to where it's prohibited they're

95
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:47,959
getting high enough we still pay monthly
too well yeah that that's it's $9 to $10

96
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:52,040
a month for the light once it's put up
but they've done they they progressively

97
00:10:50,079 --> 00:10:56,200
jacked that charge up to discourage you
from putting lights

98
00:10:53,560 --> 00:11:00,560
up that would be something to look into
with electrician see if we could pull

99
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:08,000
off one of those and put up some sort of
a a light on that corner it is a dark

100
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,000
corner I I can't see spend

101
00:11:08,839 --> 00:11:16,519
6550
00 900 is a County Road that's that's

102
00:11:14,639 --> 00:11:21,120
900 is the one that runs along the side
of the park and then Jackson tees into

103
00:11:18,639 --> 00:11:27,000
it and that corner is it is a dark
corner

104
00:11:22,639 --> 00:11:31,240
just yeah it's very dark it's very dark
but I agree the cost

105
00:11:31,399 --> 00:11:40,160
but every other area of city has got
lights so if we can find some

106
00:11:37,959 --> 00:11:45,440
alternative that's let's look for an
alternative I don't have a problem

107
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:49,120
putting the light up I just have 6,500
bucks yeah I mean I mean let's put this

108
00:11:47,839 --> 00:11:53,079
way we could we could hire an
electrician have him sink the post and

109
00:11:50,839 --> 00:11:58,240
put a light up and hook it to our Park
lights and probably for a third of that

110
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:02,760
so I think that's what we need to
explore wouldn't be bad to have for the

111
00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:02,760
park

112
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:13,120
either so we will table that and explore
explore options

113
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:17,040
on one of one of the wanted to put on
here consideration donation

114
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:30,399
G what's it it's it hasn't been as much
as it has been I think it's down what

115
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:34,959
15700 month it's not as high as it used
to

116
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,959
be yeah

117
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:41,880
last that's about what it's been around
the

118
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,880
16700

119
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,440
on I just at

120
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:59,639
last 9000 I yeah that well see there's
there's one time wer pay anything

121
00:12:55,959 --> 00:13:05,079
000 I was catching up from last year
well in the last year we didn't do

122
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:10,760
anything year before we gave what we
we year before we did me so we're just

123
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:16,720
giving it to them for one month so
whatever you gentlemen want to

124
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:18,920
do first start we done month we we did
and

125
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:26,440
December yeah last year we didn't do
anything so it's what October uh the

126
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:30,680
month of October was
$2,349 we receive

127
00:13:31,199 --> 00:13:35,639
1800 I'd say it's been averaging that

128
00:13:35,959 --> 00:13:40,040
167 nobody knows what's in the

129
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:48,880
F question for we received 14,000 some
dollars so far the year dat through

130
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:55,040
October we had budgeted 16,000 we'
already

131
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:55,040
14,700 something so way

132
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,839
over I think we should do

133
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:10,480
that so the amount is going to be how
much if you want to last time we just

134
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:15,000
said we got that month if you want to
set a amount 1,600 or whatever you want

135
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:18,759
to set then she can just cut it and do
it it's whatever we going to do because

136
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:24,040
we won't actually know what we took in
for December until next month months

137
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:28,440
behind we should have probably got our
heads together and did something like

138
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:33,240
young kids and you know coats or
something

139
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:38,639
they got some organizations that do do a
lot of that I

140
00:14:35,199 --> 00:14:43,600
know well they just had a thing I saw
children in some picture on the internet

141
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:47,759
they Ro shopping for the kids there's
organizations that do

142
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:57,040
that so what would you like to do with
this you want to set out or

143
00:14:52,079 --> 00:15:02,079
$1,800 you guys $1800 i' said recommend

192
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:15,320
do we have any public comment must have
missed this but who was appointed the

193
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,320
open

194
00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:32,720
meeting it's the city clerked both I
have a question regarding when you go

195
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:37,159
into executive session there was a um
meeting a committee meeting you had

196
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:42,799
regarding the windows where I attended
and at the end of that meeting you went

197
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:47,039
into executive session personel now how
is that publicly

198
00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:51,799
disclosed I mean you you can go you can
go into executive session can I finish

199
00:20:49,559 --> 00:20:56,919
my question go ahead um because I think
Nancy G ship took the notes and usually

200
00:20:54,640 --> 00:21:00,679
at the end of notes there would be
something that says they went into EX

201
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:05,280
session but there's nothing that says
that you went into ex executive session

202
00:21:02,559 --> 00:21:09,520
that night I know that you you know it's
privileged you can't know what was said

203
00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:14,440
but just the fact that you went in Tak
it was probably missed because we didn't

204
00:21:11,159 --> 00:21:17,880
have n Nancy gets the recording and then
she takes it off there since it was an

205
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:22,360
open session we didn't record we
recorded that but she probably didn't

206
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:26,080
get put on minutes it was it it was
involving

207
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:29,799
personnel and we're going to go into one
just a little bit for personnel and for

208

[Music]

212
00:21:54,520 --> 00:22:00,520
was was if it was a committee meeting I
probably would
