you know Daniel is a was was was able to
come with us by the lateral

78
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:13,279
transfer uh you know that saves the city
some income of having to send somebody

79
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:19,399
to the academy uh you know I think
Daniel has met with the school officials

80
00:11:16,279 --> 00:11:26,320
uh you know and they gave their approval
U you know at this time I would like to

83
00:11:47,399 --> 00:11:54,560
24 look forward to lovely things for
that we look forward to you know it's

84
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:59,399
it's kind of one them double sided
swords you know it's it's unfortunate

85
00:11:57,079 --> 00:12:06,120
that we have to install a police officer
GRE School uh but it is happens to be

86
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:13,440
today's world U but I I think you know
we've made a positive hire and things

87
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:20,199
will work out amazingly for
everybody moving on to item number three

88
00:12:17,399 --> 00:12:24,199
uh and again uh this is a purchase of a
police department vehicle that's

89
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:31,880
something that the city has done quite
frequently as we purchase a vehicle um

90
00:12:28,279 --> 00:12:37,320
then we roll one of the existing Patrol
that we to the chief wants to retire and

91
00:12:34,560 --> 00:12:42,880
that usually goes to another department
uh within the city

92
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:48,000
um I don't know the time frame on
getting the police vehicle you know

93
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:54,000
sometimes it might take six months
sometimes it might take 16 months I know

94
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:57,160
that the city has not approved
Appropriations uh but we will be having

95
00:12:56,199 --> 00:13:01,360
those
Appropriations uh Thurs the meeting

96
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:07,480
Thursday and hopefully we will get the
council to approve those Appropriations

97
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:13,279
but I think uh time might be the factor
that we um go ahead and

98
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:17,760
authorize um the purchase of the police
vehicle it is it will be in his

99
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:23,920
Appropriations
um again the city council you know at

100
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:31,639
all the times that we've bid ask for
bids we've only got one local business

101
00:13:26,839 --> 00:13:37,920
that bids uh and again uh that is
lemon's and it will take a super

102
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:43,920
majority of the council uh to purchase
that vehicle from lons

103
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:51,279
again I think we need to purchase local
when we can it's here the service is

104
00:13:46,680 --> 00:13:55,920
here it's just the correct thing to do
discussions on purchasing a new vehicle

105
00:13:54,079 --> 00:14:01,040
when was the last time we purchased a
was it a couple years

106
00:13:57,639 --> 00:14:01,040
ago we did

107
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:09,959
we have four in
service five already in

108
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:14,120
Department which department will get the
rotated I I believe this department will

109
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:18,800
be the airport Department Travis is in
need of a new a vehicle uh Street and

110
00:14:17,519 --> 00:14:26,440

water has one street the garage has
currently has one and the fire depart

112
00:14:29,399 --> 00:14:35,519
has
one again that it's just that it's it's

113
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:40,959
positive for us you know instead of
buying two having to maybe buy two

114
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:44,360
vehicles we buy one uh that we can push
out and save the city some

187
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:08,279
conclude the routine business for the
city council meeting uh we'll move on in

188
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:13,480
to the financial report uh this is the
first month of the new budget year for

189
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:19,000
the City of Fairfield you can see their
May expenses total 1,

190
00:22:17,159 --> 00:22:28,200
15104
36 we had May revenues of1 Milli

191
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:32,240
54932 which led to a positive cash flow
of $$

192
00:22:29,679 --> 00:22:37,000
38,866 for the
month uh even though the cash flow from

193
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:42,520
a showed a
negative

194
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:48,400
273,000 the majority of that
255 I believe somewhere close to that

195
00:22:45,919 --> 00:22:53,320
was for the paint painting of the water
tire out by the college uh that that

196
00:22:51,360 --> 00:22:59,200
dollar amount is not to show up as an
expense it is a capitalized expenditure

197
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:05,640
so it'll show up in a depreciation
schedu payroll for the month of May was

198
00:23:03,360 --> 00:23:10,799
57,8
77 gaming income for the month was

199
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,679

201
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:35,000

at the end of the month was

202
00:23:32,279 --> 00:23:40,600
1,633
26143 again please remember that there

203
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:45,600
is 1,
35,1

204
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:51,640
18126 set in an interest bearing
CD um you know so we're off to a

205
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:57,559
positive start you know we hope that the
city can continue to make those U

206
00:23:54,559 --> 00:24:04,320
positive months but realizing sometimes
it doesn't always work out that way are

207
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,320

208
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:11,960
