be bringing the cutlery and uh I guess
[10:55] you call settings plates up to 400
standard which is part of the um
[11:02] agreement to make sure it's
[11:08] there
reest that they also discussed a little
[11:13] bit about the weight for using the
kitchen and or using
[11:22] the gymnasium portion and the reason the
discussion came up was increase in
[11:30] frequency
of
[11:35] for-profit businesses that are asking to
use the
[11:40] kitchen and they want to make sure
[11:50] that charging an appropriate
amount to ensure that we'
[11:57] maintain
that's a
[12:02] discuss so there's some organizations or
some profets that are just use in the
[12:07] kitchen nothing else just for that is
correct and what it is is people need to
[12:11] be preparing in a certified kitchen and
this is a convenient place for some of
[12:17] them to be able to do that and they're
seeing that and they're looking so that
[12:24] was the biggest thing that came
think and that's and I'll submit it as

1190 utilities 2023 the 2024 utility
[17:27] rate Amendment
this was what was updated you said 630
[17:33] you add Oh no just the RFD oh yeah so
nothing was changed just RFD but I do I
[17:38] do have a discussion it okay so with the
updated information that we received
[17:43] this morning regarding the uh landfill
requisition uh Pavo and I are
[17:50] recommending uh a change uh to the
utility
[17:54] rate um amendments and that is to not
increase the landfill and not increase
[18:01] the um
recycling uh by the 5% and actually that
[18:08] will uh by my
calculations which were pretty
[18:13] rudimentary and quick um would reduce uh
$2 a month off the increase uh so right
[18:21] now it's projected on an average utility
bill um the the amount would go up by
[18:27] $6.20
cents per month uh if we do not uh
[18:32] increase the landfill in recycling uh it
would be just over four bucks I
[18:40] think

reduce the
[19:02] garage anybody
[19:06] else okay with
that somebody want to move first reading
