1
00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:05,530
Oh, good evening, everybody, and welcome to the Board of Selectmen's meeting for

2
00:00:05,560 --> 00:00:09,270
Tuesday, August 25th, 2026. Please join me in the Pledge of

3
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:10,400
Allegiance.

4
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,560
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America,

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,860
and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under

6
00:00:20,900 --> 00:00:24,740
God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

7
00:00:25,620 --> 00:00:26,340
Thank you for that.

8
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,990
Item number three, town manager's report.

9
00:00:30,700 --> 00:00:31,460
And welcome back.

10
00:00:31,900 --> 00:00:35,210
Thanks. So there's not a whole lot substantive in my report because-

11
00:00:35,250 --> 00:00:36,060
That's okay

12
00:00:36,070 --> 00:00:37,949
... I was at the conference, and then I was at

13
00:00:39,060 --> 00:00:42,360
my first vacation in two years, which was fantastic.

14
00:00:43,300 --> 00:00:46,760
The conference was really good. We had some really great speakers this year.

15
00:00:48,660 --> 00:00:52,200
Really valuable information on TIFs and some new things we can do with

16
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,140
TIFs, writing RFPs, mental health, and advice

17
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:57,600
from long-term managers. So,

18
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,280
it was really good. The vacation had minimal interruptions, thankfully.

19
00:01:03,940 --> 00:01:06,160
One big one, but outside of that, not much.

20
00:01:07,650 --> 00:01:10,870
So, in other news, I've recently spoken with Gray Lewis, our attorney,

21
00:01:11,260 --> 00:01:13,100
on the Ingalls School matter,

22
00:01:14,140 --> 00:01:14,760
and the

23
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:16,360
appraisal

24
00:01:17,220 --> 00:01:20,560
that wasn't finished yet. They did the walkthrough last week,

25
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,020
and it could be a couple of weeks before we get the report, but that will be

26
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:24,720
forthcoming.

27
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,860
We also had an email this week from Bernice at R.H.R. Smith.

28
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:31,200
That's our auditor.

29
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,680
She wanted to let us know she was back on our audit this week and hopes to complete

30
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:36,560
it by next week.

31
00:01:37,460 --> 00:01:38,730
The '23 audit,

32
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,840
I'm a little concerned that Bernice is catching so many things in

33
00:01:43,850 --> 00:01:46,350
'24 that we've been doing that way for a while.

34
00:01:47,820 --> 00:01:50,620
And she is catching all of it, mostly.

35
00:01:51,340 --> 00:01:55,040
They're not material findings, but what they are

36
00:01:55,260 --> 00:01:57,700
is Trio does a lot of stuff that

37
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,100
you wouldn't expect a normal financial system to do.

38
00:02:01,140 --> 00:02:04,880
A lot of the processes are manual, so you have to know what background

39
00:02:05,020 --> 00:02:08,200
journal entries to make and things to make things reconcile and balance.

40
00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:12,269
A lot of those weren't done, and it looks like they weren't caught in '23,

41
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:16,350
so '24 should be the first audit we have with really good beginning

42
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:17,820
balances in all of our funds

43
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:19,660
since,

44
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:24,760
I'm not exactly sure. Probably 2022 was the last good audit.

45
00:02:26,580 --> 00:02:28,720
So anyway, it's coming.

46
00:02:31,620 --> 00:02:34,680
I'm really glad Bernice has been on it because she

47
00:02:35,380 --> 00:02:38,740
finds everything. So we should be back on track.

48
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,460
Good to go after she finishes all of our audits.

49
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,960
Again, nothing to be concerned about, just things like when you have to make a

50
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,940
transfer from due to, due from accounts or things like

51
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,609
that that run in the background that are--

52
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:55,160
they go to our balance sheet, but they do not go to our

53
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,740
actual checking account, our actual

54
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,500
balances in our budget, or anything like that.

55
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,600
UMF is welcoming the students back this Friday.

56
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:07,730
I believe so.

57
00:03:07,730 --> 00:03:08,260
So,

58
00:03:09,180 --> 00:03:12,710
I'll be speaking at the welcome ceremony as usual, but this year my daughter will

59
00:03:12,740 --> 00:03:15,660
be one of the incoming students, so that's a little special.

60
00:03:15,700 --> 00:03:15,880
That's cool.

61
00:03:16,700 --> 00:03:19,940
I'll think about not embarrassing her, but I may.

62
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,280
You'll be there.

63
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:22,660
That'll be a game day decision.

64
00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:23,630
That's all we'll see.

65
00:03:23,630 --> 00:03:23,840
We'll see.

66
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:24,700
Be there or not.

67
00:03:26,580 --> 00:03:29,280
But at any rate, I do look forward to seeing the students back in town.

68
00:03:29,340 --> 00:03:31,520
The town's always a little more lively when school is in.

69
00:03:32,660 --> 00:03:36,300
I want to take a minute, though, to recognize our staff in the front

70
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,240
office. It's been a rough few months for all of them with

71
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,240
the amount of stuff they've had to deal with.

72
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,580
First with the revaluation, then the change of fiscal year.

73
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,980
Last week it was the tax lien notices.

74
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:50,990
They've been

75
00:03:53,980 --> 00:03:57,640
listening to a lot of frustration and anger, which may be justified, but they're

76
00:03:57,700 --> 00:04:01,380
also taking some verbal abuse, which is not justified.

77
00:04:03,180 --> 00:04:04,400
And through it all, they've

78
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,990
really handled it with grace and composure. They've remained professional.

79
00:04:09,780 --> 00:04:13,200
And I don't think that we really tell them enough how much we

80
00:04:13,260 --> 00:04:14,040
appreciate them.

81
00:04:14,940 --> 00:04:18,890
So, round of applause for those guys because they have

82
00:04:18,981 --> 00:04:22,920
just really withstood a lot, and they're still here, and they're still

83
00:04:22,940 --> 00:04:26,440
showing up every day at work with a smile. So really appreciate those guys.

84
00:04:32,260 --> 00:04:33,660
So that's all I've got for you tonight.

85
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,320
Perfect. Any questions, comments?

86
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,140
Yeah, just part of the problem is different systems.

87
00:04:41,220 --> 00:04:44,520
You have to go from system to system, and the contract guy that we had in

88
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,320
for an interim period, every time we seemed to get

89
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,800
somebody else in, we trade horses, and we're going around the track

90
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:53,400
backwards.

91
00:04:54,660 --> 00:04:56,600
Neither Tammy nor I were trained in Trio.

92
00:04:56,900 --> 00:04:57,180
Yeah.

93
00:04:57,220 --> 00:05:00,900
They want $1,300 per module per day to train you.

94
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:01,460
I see.

95
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,140
So we've been trying to learn from other people.

96
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,100
And with QuickBooks, that's not a fund accounting system.

97
00:05:07,220 --> 00:05:07,290
Mm-hmm.

98
00:05:07,860 --> 00:05:10,940
And nobody knew how to do what we needed to do in there except for the accountant

99
00:05:10,980 --> 00:05:12,040
who left us high and dry.

100
00:05:15,380 --> 00:05:15,500
Yeah.

101
00:05:15,540 --> 00:05:15,900
Yeah.

102
00:05:15,969 --> 00:05:18,140
We just seem to keep shooting ourselves in the foot.

103
00:05:18,620 --> 00:05:19,500
Let me try the other foot.

104
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:20,260
Yeah.

105
00:05:21,140 --> 00:05:24,660
I just wanted to agree with you for the kudos for the staff.

106
00:05:25,030 --> 00:05:25,920
I popped in here last week,

107
00:05:27,060 --> 00:05:30,440
and it wasn't a delightful day that you were having, so-

108
00:05:30,780 --> 00:05:31,340
Yeah. It's been several

109
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:31,980
... great job.

110
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,790
Questions, comments? Seeing none.

111
00:05:38,300 --> 00:05:40,640
We'll go to item number four, department head reports.

112
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,340
Questions or comments on these?

113
00:05:49,620 --> 00:05:50,740
I'm waiting for it. Don't worry.

114
00:05:50,940 --> 00:05:51,460
You sure?

115
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:53,440
They're not coming up.

116
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:56,830
No, I can't. Mine, I made a note of it.

117
00:05:56,840 --> 00:05:57,300
Yeah, go ahead.

118
00:05:58,680 --> 00:05:59,420
We'll wait for Ken's.

119
00:05:59,680 --> 00:05:59,920
I like

120
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:02,180
Ken's,

121
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,640
Chief Chau's report about the

122
00:06:08,412 --> 00:06:10,892
Kind of moving away from the whole camera project-

123
00:06:11,132 --> 00:06:11,292
Yes

124
00:06:11,432 --> 00:06:12,472
... I think that's appropriate.

125
00:06:13,072 --> 00:06:14,112
Yeah, I do at this point.

126
00:06:14,132 --> 00:06:18,012
It would be a-- No matter how well it would've

127
00:06:18,092 --> 00:06:22,032
been handled, I think it would've always had a bit of an

128
00:06:22,052 --> 00:06:23,012
aura to it that-

129
00:06:23,052 --> 00:06:23,182
Mm-hmm

130
00:06:23,232 --> 00:06:23,402
... was...

131
00:06:24,352 --> 00:06:26,631
So I think he made the right choice of pulling that back.

132
00:06:27,572 --> 00:06:28,292
I would agree with that.

133
00:06:30,652 --> 00:06:30,662
Yeah.

134
00:06:31,632 --> 00:06:32,752
Did you find your place there, Dennis?

135
00:06:32,952 --> 00:06:33,112
No.

136
00:06:33,852 --> 00:06:34,052
No?

137
00:06:34,512 --> 00:06:34,652
No.

138
00:06:35,052 --> 00:06:36,512
Wow, okay.

139
00:06:36,712 --> 00:06:36,932
Good.

140
00:06:38,312 --> 00:06:38,452
Yep.

141
00:06:39,772 --> 00:06:40,572
It looks good.

142
00:06:40,591 --> 00:06:42,532
All right.

143
00:06:44,172 --> 00:06:47,232
With that, we'll go to item number five, is to review proposed change order

144
00:06:47,272 --> 00:06:49,112
regarding brick wall and Hippek Field.

145
00:06:53,512 --> 00:06:54,072
Back again.

146
00:06:54,412 --> 00:06:54,912
Back again.

147
00:06:55,372 --> 00:06:55,932
Back again.

148
00:06:57,112 --> 00:06:57,572
How about if...

149
00:06:58,392 --> 00:07:00,412
If I was a Batman, I'd say it probably won't be the last time.

150
00:07:00,692 --> 00:07:04,212
Oh, in next meeting, too. So now I can go that far.

151
00:07:04,372 --> 00:07:06,732
The grand scheme will be determined next meeting

152
00:07:07,612 --> 00:07:08,672
with the final price.

153
00:07:09,732 --> 00:07:11,072
Beautiful.

154
00:07:11,252 --> 00:07:11,912
That's it. I can dream.

155
00:07:14,112 --> 00:07:17,952
All right. So you all must have a copy of the change order proposal

156
00:07:18,012 --> 00:07:19,532
from Scully Construction.

157
00:07:20,492 --> 00:07:24,382
So basically, they hired structural engineers to reassess the wall and

158
00:07:24,432 --> 00:07:28,322
to not redesign it but reevaluate it, and that was in the original

159
00:07:28,432 --> 00:07:32,172
contract, only because our engineers, they're civil engineers, and they don't have

160
00:07:32,232 --> 00:07:34,552
structural engineers in-house, so...

161
00:07:34,572 --> 00:07:34,752
It's

162
00:07:36,052 --> 00:07:36,732
stamp of approval.

163
00:07:37,382 --> 00:07:38,732
Yeah, stamp of approval. So the scope of work,

164
00:07:40,052 --> 00:07:42,492
this change order proposal is basically,

165
00:07:43,772 --> 00:07:47,732
the original design consists of a eight-inch-thick brick

166
00:07:47,832 --> 00:07:48,212
wall.

167
00:07:48,872 --> 00:07:48,882
Mm-hmm.

168
00:07:48,932 --> 00:07:52,592
So the thickness of the original design was to match the

169
00:07:52,652 --> 00:07:56,072
interior wall that remains, which is eight inches thick.

170
00:07:57,212 --> 00:07:58,252
So their

171
00:07:59,352 --> 00:08:01,952
proposal is to increase the wall thickness

172
00:08:02,832 --> 00:08:04,092
to 12 inches,

173
00:08:04,932 --> 00:08:08,232
and the reason for is to withstand wind

174
00:08:08,272 --> 00:08:11,872
loads. Yeah. So the structural engineers have their own

175
00:08:11,952 --> 00:08:15,652
standards and codes to meet, so I believe a wind

176
00:08:15,732 --> 00:08:19,412
load proposal is roughly around 185 miles per

177
00:08:19,512 --> 00:08:19,792
hour.

178
00:08:21,812 --> 00:08:25,412
So that's what this change order, and the price is

179
00:08:25,592 --> 00:08:28,911
39,319 lump sum.

180
00:08:29,832 --> 00:08:30,482
And this is

181
00:08:31,492 --> 00:08:33,653
mostly just material costs.

182
00:08:34,612 --> 00:08:34,672
So-

183
00:08:34,732 --> 00:08:36,352
And adding, because it would have the rebar.

184
00:08:37,052 --> 00:08:37,381
Yeah, and-

185
00:08:37,552 --> 00:08:41,332
Like, it would make it, which makes it have better durability.

186
00:08:41,393 --> 00:08:41,552
Yeah.

187
00:08:41,562 --> 00:08:44,332
And then it's up to codes because codes have shifted.

188
00:08:45,612 --> 00:08:45,852
Yeah.

189
00:08:48,792 --> 00:08:49,812
So I'm kinda,

190
00:08:51,552 --> 00:08:52,412
I don't know, I'm-

191
00:08:53,272 --> 00:08:54,132
Hemming and hawing.

192
00:08:54,272 --> 00:08:56,232
I've been hemming and hawing this since I've received it.

193
00:08:57,472 --> 00:09:01,072
I didn't want to make a direct recommendation

194
00:09:01,252 --> 00:09:02,242
because there's

195
00:09:04,632 --> 00:09:08,392
like two scenarios with this. One,

196
00:09:08,432 --> 00:09:09,572
it's

197
00:09:10,912 --> 00:09:14,852
insurance, I guess, to meet code in case if something happens.

198
00:09:15,612 --> 00:09:16,692
Or two,

199
00:09:17,932 --> 00:09:21,712
what I was looking at is the 100-year-old existing interior brick

200
00:09:21,812 --> 00:09:23,022
wall that's been standing for-

201
00:09:23,072 --> 00:09:23,802
It's still sitting there

202
00:09:23,802 --> 00:09:24,752
And it's still sitting there.

203
00:09:24,852 --> 00:09:26,092
Without a full foundation-

204
00:09:26,392 --> 00:09:26,552
Right

205
00:09:26,852 --> 00:09:26,852
...

206
00:09:27,852 --> 00:09:28,072
that

207
00:09:28,932 --> 00:09:32,342
you all approved at the last meeting to strike and re-mortar, and the condition was

208
00:09:32,412 --> 00:09:33,012
great. So

209
00:09:35,072 --> 00:09:35,892
that's where

210
00:09:37,612 --> 00:09:37,792
it's-

211
00:09:38,812 --> 00:09:41,812
So it's just kind of like, would it matter to get insurance, stuff like that.

212
00:09:41,972 --> 00:09:42,312
And then,

213
00:09:43,272 --> 00:09:47,152
so just not a call that obviously we want to, need to have thoughts

214
00:09:47,172 --> 00:09:47,912
and opinions on.

215
00:09:48,072 --> 00:09:48,202
Yeah.

216
00:09:48,792 --> 00:09:49,202
Have they

217
00:09:50,272 --> 00:09:52,552
taken into account, too, that we're going from a

218
00:09:53,592 --> 00:09:55,132
wall that is

219
00:09:56,372 --> 00:09:59,182
slatted to basically a front?

220
00:09:59,912 --> 00:10:00,012
Yeah.

221
00:10:00,072 --> 00:10:02,192
Is that going to... Is that some of that, too?

222
00:10:02,252 --> 00:10:04,052
Is it going to change the pressure on the wall?

223
00:10:04,112 --> 00:10:05,702
So this is, I actually had this conversation with-

224
00:10:05,702 --> 00:10:06,892
I mean, that's got to-

225
00:10:06,992 --> 00:10:07,952
You'd have to step-

226
00:10:07,962 --> 00:10:10,472
You start putting eight foot of water in, that's got to be some pressure.

227
00:10:10,732 --> 00:10:10,932
Right.

228
00:10:11,052 --> 00:10:14,212
So this could be a potential scenario in the future.

229
00:10:14,912 --> 00:10:15,652
So the reason

230
00:10:16,552 --> 00:10:20,312
this whole scenario started was because of the slats getting damaged from plowing.

231
00:10:20,492 --> 00:10:20,692
Mm-hmm.

232
00:10:20,792 --> 00:10:22,952
From pressure from snow pressure.

233
00:10:22,982 --> 00:10:22,982
Right.

234
00:10:23,032 --> 00:10:26,112
Okay, so slats were cheap to repair.

235
00:10:27,212 --> 00:10:29,981
If something was to happen to a brick wall, a crack-

236
00:10:30,212 --> 00:10:30,512
Right

237
00:10:30,522 --> 00:10:31,732
... structural, that

238
00:10:32,532 --> 00:10:36,272
could be costly in the future. So, yes, we're

239
00:10:36,332 --> 00:10:39,832
making the sidewalk in front of the wall wider to be able to

240
00:10:39,892 --> 00:10:43,012
hold more snow in the winter months for plowing-

241
00:10:43,032 --> 00:10:43,042
Mm-hmm

242
00:10:43,042 --> 00:10:46,612
... which should help relieve some of that pressure against the wall.

243
00:10:46,632 --> 00:10:47,172
But still,

244
00:10:50,432 --> 00:10:53,152
I was looking at the drawings earlier and the design.

245
00:10:53,282 --> 00:10:57,112
There is number four rebar going all the way up from the very

246
00:10:57,172 --> 00:10:58,332
base. So six feet

247
00:10:59,632 --> 00:11:01,772
under the ground's going to have a full foundation-

248
00:11:01,932 --> 00:11:02,092
Yeah

249
00:11:02,332 --> 00:11:03,512
... with a 12-inch footer.

250
00:11:04,472 --> 00:11:06,472
That's going to be buried, a full frost wall.

251
00:11:07,392 --> 00:11:11,332
So what you're going to see with the brick is going to be a eight-foot wall above

252
00:11:11,372 --> 00:11:11,692
that.

253
00:11:12,052 --> 00:11:12,492
Mm-hmm.

254
00:11:12,612 --> 00:11:13,292
So everything's-

255
00:11:13,812 --> 00:11:13,822
Tiny.

256
00:11:13,832 --> 00:11:17,432
Yeah, everything is still going to be structurally locked together from

257
00:11:17,492 --> 00:11:21,252
rebar all the way from the very bottom of the footer all the way up to

258
00:11:21,292 --> 00:11:23,612
the walls or the top of the wall.

259
00:11:26,112 --> 00:11:30,072
Yeah, and there's two different scenarios where these walls, in the past

260
00:11:30,112 --> 00:11:32,132
from, like, building schools of Southern Maine.

261
00:11:32,212 --> 00:11:36,132
So this is considered, it's a brick freestanding wall.

262
00:11:36,212 --> 00:11:39,852
It's not a brick veneer wall. So a brick veneer wall would be concrete-

263
00:11:40,132 --> 00:11:40,212
Mm-hmm

264
00:11:40,292 --> 00:11:42,152
... all the way up, and then just veneer with brick.

265
00:11:42,182 --> 00:11:42,552
Brick faced.

266
00:11:42,982 --> 00:11:44,472
And we wouldn't have to worry about the structural

267
00:11:45,312 --> 00:11:47,292
stuff like that, wind loads and that.

268
00:11:47,342 --> 00:11:47,342
Mm-hmm.

269
00:11:47,372 --> 00:11:51,242
So since this is going to be a freestanding brick wall locked in with

270
00:11:51,372 --> 00:11:52,712
wire ties, rebar, and

271
00:11:54,032 --> 00:11:54,682
some concrete-

272
00:11:54,992 --> 00:11:55,852
Right.

273
00:11:56,812 --> 00:11:58,632
Yeah, that's why they're stressing the wind loads.

274
00:12:01,672 --> 00:12:03,152
Sounds like a bit of overkill,

275
00:12:04,892 --> 00:12:05,832
to say the least.

276
00:12:06,852 --> 00:12:10,352
Could we go back to a concrete wall with a facing?

277
00:12:12,764 --> 00:12:14,304
The brick they go to the eight-inch

278
00:12:16,024 --> 00:12:18,104
A concrete wall with a veneer, a brick veneer-

279
00:12:18,304 --> 00:12:18,424
Yeah

280
00:12:18,604 --> 00:12:21,524
... that'll eat up quite a bit of money. A lot more money.

281
00:12:21,554 --> 00:12:22,274
It'll need more money to do that?

282
00:12:22,274 --> 00:12:25,784
Yeah, because typically those walls, I don't know if you've noticed the

283
00:12:26,664 --> 00:12:28,024
car wash being constructed.

284
00:12:28,264 --> 00:12:28,574
Mm-hmm.

285
00:12:29,104 --> 00:12:30,724
Yeah, that's quite an undertaking.

286
00:12:30,744 --> 00:12:34,494
Either one is precast walls, they come in and set with cranes and

287
00:12:34,584 --> 00:12:36,244
stuff, or they pour it on site.

288
00:12:37,864 --> 00:12:38,164
Yeah.

289
00:12:41,784 --> 00:12:45,664
Were there any other engineering considerations or concerns other than the wind

290
00:12:45,704 --> 00:12:48,164
load? Did you mention any other factors?

291
00:12:48,524 --> 00:12:49,484
Not that... No.

292
00:12:50,104 --> 00:12:50,284
No.

293
00:12:51,404 --> 00:12:55,324
So, we're talking about flood, we're talking about snow-

294
00:12:55,664 --> 00:12:55,964
Yeah

295
00:12:55,974 --> 00:12:56,764
... talking about ice.

296
00:12:57,984 --> 00:12:59,674
Those weren't part of their calculations.

297
00:12:59,804 --> 00:13:01,504
Yeah. Their biggest thing was wind.

298
00:13:01,564 --> 00:13:02,744
Yeah, just wind. Yeah.

299
00:13:06,844 --> 00:13:10,784
Just seems to me every time we hire an engineering firm to do some

300
00:13:10,984 --> 00:13:12,694
bid specs for us, we come back-

301
00:13:12,764 --> 00:13:13,574
They have to find something

302
00:13:13,574 --> 00:13:15,804
... and bite me a*s again, and I just get tired of that.

303
00:13:15,884 --> 00:13:17,484
I don't know why we're paying good money.

304
00:13:17,984 --> 00:13:19,684
Happened at the rec center-

305
00:13:19,824 --> 00:13:19,834
Mm-hmm

306
00:13:19,834 --> 00:13:22,804
... and this is the second change order on here.

307
00:13:23,034 --> 00:13:27,024
As we get into stuff that I thought somebody that comes out and looks at

308
00:13:27,064 --> 00:13:29,544
it and does a plan is going to be thinking about.

309
00:13:29,624 --> 00:13:32,744
Now, I understand, okay, civil, structural, whatever.

310
00:13:32,764 --> 00:13:35,464
I don't know if we're hiring the wrong people, but...

311
00:13:36,184 --> 00:13:40,004
And the other thing is, I got to think if we're talking about wind shear up to 185

312
00:13:40,044 --> 00:13:43,684
miles an hour, there's going to be a whole hell of a lot of damage all over town.

313
00:13:43,724 --> 00:13:45,924
That wall isn't going to be the only thing that takes a hit,

314
00:13:46,724 --> 00:13:49,764
at this point. And I think we're talking FEMA money or-

315
00:13:50,564 --> 00:13:50,754
Mm-hmm

316
00:13:50,924 --> 00:13:51,494
... whatever.

317
00:13:52,124 --> 00:13:53,724
It sounds like it.

318
00:13:54,364 --> 00:13:56,464
Because I just can't see that being a

319
00:13:57,344 --> 00:13:59,404
one-time only, or one

320
00:14:00,264 --> 00:14:02,504
area only, could be hit with it. So-

321
00:14:02,584 --> 00:14:02,844
Right

322
00:14:02,904 --> 00:14:03,884
... I think just-

323
00:14:04,344 --> 00:14:07,183
Just to be clear, I heard 85 miles an hour, not 185.

324
00:14:07,224 --> 00:14:08,384
No, 185.

325
00:14:08,604 --> 00:14:09,194
185.

326
00:14:09,194 --> 00:14:09,344
185.

327
00:14:09,384 --> 00:14:10,384
Yes, 185.

328
00:14:10,584 --> 00:14:10,914
185.

329
00:14:10,934 --> 00:14:10,934
Yep.

330
00:14:10,944 --> 00:14:12,524
Seriously?

331
00:14:12,894 --> 00:14:14,084
Is it justified?

332
00:14:14,324 --> 00:14:15,344
You are right.

333
00:14:15,464 --> 00:14:17,944
That's what the wall is rated for.

334
00:14:18,024 --> 00:14:18,424
Yeah, yeah.

335
00:14:18,964 --> 00:14:21,444
Do we need 185? Okay.

336
00:14:21,524 --> 00:14:25,064
That's why we're bringing it to your attention, because it's hard, because we need

337
00:14:25,124 --> 00:14:25,644
something.

338
00:14:27,064 --> 00:14:27,394
That's it.

339
00:14:27,424 --> 00:14:28,524
For 100 miles an hour?

340
00:14:29,024 --> 00:14:29,824
185.

341
00:14:31,924 --> 00:14:34,044
What a good little piggy house you have.

342
00:14:35,444 --> 00:14:36,364
I got the sticks one.

343
00:14:36,524 --> 00:14:37,504
I know some woodcutters.

344
00:14:37,974 --> 00:14:39,024
I'm a four-foot wall.

345
00:14:40,284 --> 00:14:40,784
I don't hide.

346
00:14:42,404 --> 00:14:42,624
Randy.

347
00:14:43,884 --> 00:14:47,704
185 miles an hour. I don't know if we've ever seen 185 miles an

348
00:14:47,764 --> 00:14:51,424
hour in this town. And we have a wall which is going to take that

349
00:14:51,484 --> 00:14:55,204
load, and they think it's not going to be enough.

350
00:14:57,124 --> 00:14:58,944
We have windows in that wall, right?

351
00:14:59,214 --> 00:14:59,214
Mm-hmm.

352
00:14:59,244 --> 00:14:59,344
Yeah.

353
00:14:59,444 --> 00:15:03,364
Those windows blow out before the wall fell over, so

354
00:15:03,404 --> 00:15:04,684
that takes a bit of load off the-

355
00:15:05,064 --> 00:15:05,484
The wind-

356
00:15:05,824 --> 00:15:05,854
... structure

357
00:15:05,854 --> 00:15:09,344
... the wind shear. Yeah, exactly. So the windows are bonded there.

358
00:15:09,374 --> 00:15:10,604
They're just going to be open.

359
00:15:10,884 --> 00:15:11,104
Yeah.

360
00:15:11,144 --> 00:15:12,464
Yeah. Exactly.

361
00:15:13,284 --> 00:15:16,154
So I think you got space for wind to go through there without-

362
00:15:16,324 --> 00:15:16,404
Mm-hmm

363
00:15:16,744 --> 00:15:20,444
... knocking down a wall. And I agree with the idea, I think we're more

364
00:15:20,484 --> 00:15:21,984
likely to see problems with flooding-

365
00:15:22,144 --> 00:15:22,214
Mm-hmm

366
00:15:22,464 --> 00:15:24,464
... than we are with a hurricane,

367
00:15:25,604 --> 00:15:26,324
tornado, or

368
00:15:28,424 --> 00:15:31,264
winds in that area. It's a pretty load.

369
00:15:32,024 --> 00:15:35,024
Do they actually look at the area or do they just assume-

370
00:15:36,694 --> 00:15:40,084
... that it was going to be a wind problem in the-

371
00:15:40,824 --> 00:15:41,864
They looked at Google Earth.

372
00:15:41,924 --> 00:15:44,414
Yeah. It's just the nature

373
00:15:44,984 --> 00:15:48,514
of structural engineering

374
00:15:48,644 --> 00:15:49,024
code.

375
00:15:49,044 --> 00:15:49,804
It's just a standard.

376
00:15:49,844 --> 00:15:51,004
It's just a standard.

377
00:15:51,024 --> 00:15:51,124
Yeah.

378
00:15:51,164 --> 00:15:54,924
Not so much on our project in particular, it's just any place you build

379
00:15:55,004 --> 00:15:57,844
brick wall anywhere, and they're going to say the same thing.

380
00:15:58,124 --> 00:15:58,444
Yeah.

381
00:15:58,484 --> 00:15:58,844
Mm-hmm.

382
00:16:00,364 --> 00:16:02,664
So what would happen if we didn't go with this?

383
00:16:03,424 --> 00:16:04,264
If we did go with it?

384
00:16:04,304 --> 00:16:04,784
Did not.

385
00:16:04,924 --> 00:16:05,624
Oh, did not.

386
00:16:06,584 --> 00:16:10,364
We're still going to get a wall that matches the existing, and we're still going to

387
00:16:10,404 --> 00:16:13,804
get a full foundation, full footer.

388
00:16:14,504 --> 00:16:14,534
Down.

389
00:16:15,584 --> 00:16:15,944
Yeah.

390
00:16:16,064 --> 00:16:19,804
And this covers,

391
00:16:21,164 --> 00:16:22,924
I'm assuming it involved flooding-

392
00:16:23,644 --> 00:16:23,884
Yeah

393
00:16:24,284 --> 00:16:24,984
... with this in there.

394
00:16:25,624 --> 00:16:28,084
So that's one thing that Dirigo was familiar with.

395
00:16:28,424 --> 00:16:31,874
And they added, in the original design, was that full footing and

396
00:16:32,264 --> 00:16:35,304
footer to withstand the hydrology-

397
00:16:35,364 --> 00:16:35,374
Yeah

398
00:16:35,374 --> 00:16:36,584
... end of it for the flooding event.

399
00:16:37,004 --> 00:16:37,344
Right.

400
00:16:37,404 --> 00:16:37,544
Yeah.

401
00:16:38,424 --> 00:16:38,874
To withstand it.

402
00:16:38,874 --> 00:16:39,204
To withstand, yeah.

403
00:16:39,344 --> 00:16:39,704
Mm-hmm.

404
00:16:39,764 --> 00:16:42,543
And that would cover that without, with the eight-

405
00:16:42,924 --> 00:16:43,064
Yeah

406
00:16:43,764 --> 00:16:44,544
... eight-inch wall.

407
00:16:45,284 --> 00:16:45,364
Right.

408
00:16:45,854 --> 00:16:48,904
Have you checked with any of the insurance companies just to see if this is an

409
00:16:48,964 --> 00:16:50,104
issue?

410
00:16:51,404 --> 00:16:53,784
I haven't checked with insurance companies.

411
00:16:54,344 --> 00:16:55,804
That would be the only thing, I don't know.

412
00:16:57,684 --> 00:17:00,324
I'm sure they'd still insure the property-

413
00:17:00,664 --> 00:17:00,884
Right

414
00:17:00,944 --> 00:17:04,704
... because a lot of our properties are insured without it being to

415
00:17:04,744 --> 00:17:05,464
code. Yeah.

416
00:17:05,545 --> 00:17:05,825
Okay.

417
00:17:06,305 --> 00:17:07,664
And hurricane had come.

418
00:17:08,224 --> 00:17:09,144
Yeah.

419
00:17:09,184 --> 00:17:12,404
Well, it was kind of touched on. The structural engineers are going to give you

420
00:17:12,464 --> 00:17:14,754
the worst possible case-

421
00:17:14,785 --> 00:17:14,795
Mm-hmm

422
00:17:14,795 --> 00:17:17,444
... because it's their liability if they don't.

423
00:17:19,024 --> 00:17:22,585
It's up to us whether we want to accept that risk or not.

424
00:17:22,984 --> 00:17:26,964
As far as our insurance goes, we are under an

425
00:17:26,973 --> 00:17:30,524
aggregate policy, which means we are insured for a grand total

426
00:17:30,604 --> 00:17:31,364
aggregate of-

427
00:17:31,944 --> 00:17:32,043
Okay

428
00:17:32,244 --> 00:17:35,954
... I think it's 43 million or something, because the likelihood of every

429
00:17:36,044 --> 00:17:39,044
facility being taken out at once is very low.

430
00:17:39,264 --> 00:17:39,464
Right.

431
00:17:39,844 --> 00:17:42,364
So we'd have to have a lot destroyed to reach that end.

432
00:17:42,404 --> 00:17:43,724
Yeah. Okay. That makes sense.

433
00:17:44,124 --> 00:17:45,884
Yeah. Thank you.

434
00:17:46,704 --> 00:17:47,434
Yeah, go ahead.

435
00:17:47,524 --> 00:17:51,384
So really the only change to it is going from an 8 inch to a 12-inch

436
00:17:51,524 --> 00:17:51,784
wall,

437
00:17:52,864 --> 00:17:54,364
and that's another 40 grand-

438
00:17:54,724 --> 00:17:54,824
Yeah

439
00:17:54,844 --> 00:17:56,204
... for another four inches of brick.

440
00:17:56,384 --> 00:17:56,504
Yeah.

441
00:17:57,164 --> 00:17:57,324
Yep.

442
00:17:57,744 --> 00:18:01,194
Does that come out of our pocket, or is it split grant money-

443
00:18:01,284 --> 00:18:01,294
No

444
00:18:01,294 --> 00:18:03,544
... are we paying for this whole wall? I don't remember.

445
00:18:03,764 --> 00:18:07,644
Yeah, no, I'm going to submit it through the MDI grant process for 50%

446
00:18:07,664 --> 00:18:09,044
reimbursement.

447
00:18:09,504 --> 00:18:10,824
But we don't know at this point.

448
00:18:10,904 --> 00:18:11,854
Yeah, we don't know at this point.

449
00:18:11,944 --> 00:18:14,284
Oh, to crap shoot. So it may only cost us 20 grand.

450
00:18:14,604 --> 00:18:14,754
Yeah.

451
00:18:16,432 --> 00:18:17,752
Still something that we need.

452
00:18:19,452 --> 00:18:21,512
And the existing wall is eight feet?

453
00:18:21,532 --> 00:18:22,432
It is eight inches.

454
00:18:22,492 --> 00:18:22,962
Eight inches.

455
00:18:22,972 --> 00:18:23,612
Yeah.

456
00:18:23,662 --> 00:18:23,662
Eight inches.

457
00:18:23,692 --> 00:18:26,452
And it's withstood the test of time so far.

458
00:18:26,612 --> 00:18:27,052
Decades.

459
00:18:27,492 --> 00:18:27,672
Yeah.

460
00:18:28,372 --> 00:18:28,632
Yeah.

461
00:18:30,612 --> 00:18:32,892
I make the motion that we don't approve the change order.

462
00:18:33,322 --> 00:18:34,012
Second.

463
00:18:34,022 --> 00:18:36,872
And we stay with the eight inch. Yep, just a minute.

464
00:18:38,032 --> 00:18:38,252
Second.

465
00:18:38,912 --> 00:18:40,972
Motion and a second to not approve.

466
00:18:42,772 --> 00:18:45,872
Any more questions, comments from the board? Seeing none. Mr. Spiott.

467
00:18:47,912 --> 00:18:48,172
So,

468
00:18:51,812 --> 00:18:55,792
excuse me if I've missed hearing some of the things discussed, but

469
00:18:56,592 --> 00:18:58,752
I just want to understand what's going on here.

470
00:18:58,852 --> 00:19:02,832
We hired a designer who designed the project,

471
00:19:04,532 --> 00:19:06,232
prepared the bid documents,

472
00:19:07,152 --> 00:19:07,832
but had a

473
00:19:09,372 --> 00:19:13,152
clause in there that said they're not competent to

474
00:19:13,232 --> 00:19:13,652
address

475
00:19:14,512 --> 00:19:17,872
the structural aspects of this issue.

476
00:19:18,512 --> 00:19:18,932
Is that right?

477
00:19:19,052 --> 00:19:19,392
Yes.

478
00:19:19,652 --> 00:19:19,772
Yeah.

479
00:19:19,992 --> 00:19:20,412
Exactly.

480
00:19:20,472 --> 00:19:24,252
We've done that several times in previous projects, because we

481
00:19:24,412 --> 00:19:27,312
typically hire civil engineers to do our road work and drainage.

482
00:19:27,552 --> 00:19:27,952
Yeah.

483
00:19:27,972 --> 00:19:31,452
And then, what they do is they put in a contract that the

484
00:19:31,892 --> 00:19:35,692
contractor's responsible for obtaining a structural engineer to do

485
00:19:35,712 --> 00:19:39,412
retaining walls on Front Street and retaining walls around town, similar.

486
00:19:39,892 --> 00:19:43,292
So, when we went out to bid with a project estimate,

487
00:19:44,012 --> 00:19:45,172
that was left

488
00:19:46,712 --> 00:19:47,912
out there somewhere

489
00:19:48,892 --> 00:19:49,272
with no

490
00:19:51,152 --> 00:19:52,832
provision for

491
00:19:53,932 --> 00:19:54,872
the increase.

492
00:19:55,712 --> 00:19:56,632
Right. Exactly.

493
00:19:57,052 --> 00:19:58,812
So now we're at a change order.

494
00:19:58,852 --> 00:19:59,232
Yep.

495
00:20:00,852 --> 00:20:04,032
Who initially designed the brick wall?

496
00:20:04,432 --> 00:20:05,722
Who was the designer on that?

497
00:20:05,732 --> 00:20:07,172
It was Derrick Engineering.

498
00:20:08,632 --> 00:20:12,312
And they prepared the bid documents.

499
00:20:13,642 --> 00:20:13,642
Yeah.

500
00:20:15,632 --> 00:20:16,082
Mm-hmm.

501
00:20:16,242 --> 00:20:20,092
Who, I assume Scully prepared the estimate for the

502
00:20:20,352 --> 00:20:20,892
change order?

503
00:20:21,592 --> 00:20:23,072
Yes. Yeah, they did.

504
00:20:23,292 --> 00:20:23,612
Okay.

505
00:20:24,472 --> 00:20:25,692
And has anybody

506
00:20:26,812 --> 00:20:30,452
representing the town reviewed that estimate

507
00:20:31,052 --> 00:20:34,812
to determine the appropriate accuracy of that

508
00:20:35,072 --> 00:20:36,272
proposed change order?

509
00:20:37,032 --> 00:20:40,892
Yes, I've been in contact with Ideal, the contractors directly, and

510
00:20:41,032 --> 00:20:44,432
their sub-structural engineer contractors directly too.

511
00:20:44,912 --> 00:20:48,882
We've done multiple site inspections with them and, yeah, we've

512
00:20:48,952 --> 00:20:50,032
been in contact with them.

513
00:20:50,112 --> 00:20:52,212
Right. So, we've been in contract with the

514
00:20:53,332 --> 00:20:55,652
person who prepared the change order price.

515
00:20:55,972 --> 00:20:56,712
Yeah. Yes.

516
00:20:57,072 --> 00:21:00,852
Okay. But has there been a representative from town

517
00:21:01,372 --> 00:21:03,692
to review that estimate for,

518
00:21:05,212 --> 00:21:08,972
to determine whether that truly is the

519
00:21:09,032 --> 00:21:10,142
cost of the change order?

520
00:21:10,732 --> 00:21:11,912
That's Phil's position.

521
00:21:11,942 --> 00:21:11,942
Yeah.

522
00:21:11,952 --> 00:21:12,202
That's-

523
00:21:12,392 --> 00:21:12,792
Phil did.

524
00:21:12,992 --> 00:21:13,772
Phil did that.

525
00:21:15,121 --> 00:21:15,952
Phil, he did.

526
00:21:15,992 --> 00:21:16,082
Yeah.

527
00:21:16,372 --> 00:21:16,382
Yes.

528
00:21:16,412 --> 00:21:16,992
That's his job.

529
00:21:17,332 --> 00:21:17,532
Yes.

530
00:21:17,872 --> 00:21:18,272
Okay.

531
00:21:19,432 --> 00:21:19,442
Yeah.

532
00:21:19,712 --> 00:21:20,052
So,

533
00:21:20,912 --> 00:21:23,432
you're okay with the change order?

534
00:21:23,552 --> 00:21:24,312
I'm okay with it,

535
00:21:25,412 --> 00:21:29,052
yeah.

536
00:21:30,332 --> 00:21:32,272
Okay. I don't have any more questions.

537
00:21:32,332 --> 00:21:33,432
I do have one later

538
00:21:34,372 --> 00:21:34,492
for

539
00:21:35,472 --> 00:21:36,812
the parks and rec issues.

540
00:21:37,032 --> 00:21:37,372
Okay.

541
00:21:39,612 --> 00:21:41,912
With that, any more questions, any more comments?

542
00:21:43,052 --> 00:21:44,332
Seeing none. All in favor?

543
00:21:45,772 --> 00:21:47,112
Thank you. So...

544
00:21:50,252 --> 00:21:52,371
All right, moving along.

545
00:21:57,272 --> 00:22:01,172
Item number six, to accept the FY 2025 FEMA

546
00:22:01,212 --> 00:22:04,482
Homeland Security Grant on behalf of the police department in the amount of

547
00:22:04,482 --> 00:22:06,222
$15,366

548
00:22:07,172 --> 00:22:09,412
for the purchase of three mobile data terminals.

549
00:22:10,132 --> 00:22:14,012
So, Ken is stuck in Boston, waiting

550
00:22:14,072 --> 00:22:17,512
for another plane. He will be available by phone if you have specific questions for

551
00:22:17,572 --> 00:22:17,832
him.

552
00:22:19,732 --> 00:22:23,492
This is another Homeland Security grant that they applied for.

553
00:22:23,912 --> 00:22:26,672
That's how they've been replacing most of their mobile data terminals.

554
00:22:27,572 --> 00:22:31,132
But it also is tied into... It's

555
00:22:31,512 --> 00:22:31,712
in

556
00:22:32,612 --> 00:22:35,052
conjunction with the fire department's

557
00:22:36,472 --> 00:22:40,192
piece of that allocation, which I can let TD speak to.

558
00:22:40,532 --> 00:22:44,472
Another memo was produced today. We didn't realize that the two were

559
00:22:44,512 --> 00:22:48,012
tied together as we were putting the agenda together, so.

560
00:22:49,792 --> 00:22:52,152
Do these go in vehicles? Is this, are these-

561
00:22:52,492 --> 00:22:52,852
Yes.

562
00:22:53,232 --> 00:22:54,692
All right.

563
00:22:55,552 --> 00:22:56,592
Yeah, and they're expensive, so.

564
00:22:56,652 --> 00:22:57,792
Right.

565
00:22:57,832 --> 00:22:58,052
Mm-hmm.

566
00:22:59,052 --> 00:23:02,232
You talked about these before. Yeah, they're $6,000 a piece,

567
00:23:03,112 --> 00:23:06,352
and that's if you don't have to buy any new hardware because your vehicles have

568
00:23:06,412 --> 00:23:08,412
changed mounting, so

569
00:23:09,252 --> 00:23:10,752
yeah, they're a pricey item.

570
00:23:14,672 --> 00:23:15,932
Questions, comments, motions?

571
00:23:15,972 --> 00:23:19,712
I would make a motion we accept the Homeland Security grant.

572
00:23:20,012 --> 00:23:21,052
I'll second it.

573
00:23:21,932 --> 00:23:23,652
I'm always happy to get free money.

574
00:23:25,612 --> 00:23:26,952
Especially to Ken.

575
00:23:27,092 --> 00:23:30,312
Right. We've got a motion and a second to accept the FY

576
00:23:30,552 --> 00:23:32,532
2025 FEMA Homeland Security grant

577
00:23:33,352 --> 00:23:37,232
for the amount of $15,366 for the purchase of three

578
00:23:37,312 --> 00:23:41,052
mobile data terminals. I think we have to accept it along with

579
00:23:41,372 --> 00:23:44,732
the other piece, though. So, we could either do a separate

580
00:23:45,932 --> 00:23:49,192
vote, but we can't actually accept the bid,

581
00:23:49,292 --> 00:23:52,652
the grant- ... without also approving the fire side of it.

582
00:23:52,972 --> 00:23:55,392
So, what they usually do, so this is a change in their process.

583
00:23:55,452 --> 00:23:59,062
Which they used to do, it went to the county, and then we'd get,

584
00:23:59,532 --> 00:24:01,492
each department would get an MOU with the county.

585
00:24:01,532 --> 00:24:03,772
They just did an MOU just with us this year.

586
00:24:04,232 --> 00:24:08,042
So, it's under, so if you look at that, I don't know if you saw the email that

587
00:24:08,132 --> 00:24:08,912
I forwarded.

588
00:24:08,922 --> 00:24:09,102
Mm-hmm.

589
00:24:09,932 --> 00:24:11,092
They just bundled the two.

590
00:24:12,232 --> 00:24:14,052
They're actually under one project.

591
00:24:14,112 --> 00:24:17,572
So, I was actually getting ready to look at the paperwork, and I saw that they were

592
00:24:17,612 --> 00:24:21,192
both together. So, once we sign for one, we sign for both,

593
00:24:21,252 --> 00:24:21,752
so

594
00:24:22,988 --> 00:24:26,688
Which is part of that same grant program, we had applied to

595
00:24:26,828 --> 00:24:30,748
update our base radio station here, so we

596
00:24:30,828 --> 00:24:33,668
actually could improve it, actually have a second one.

597
00:24:34,708 --> 00:24:37,908
So we had applied for that also, and we also applied for two large computer

598
00:24:37,988 --> 00:24:38,728
screens

599
00:24:40,208 --> 00:24:42,288
to go along with that for our dispatch area.

600
00:24:44,048 --> 00:24:48,028
And we were awarded $10,000

601
00:24:48,128 --> 00:24:50,888
to do that project as part of the same grant.

602
00:24:51,028 --> 00:24:52,448
Okay.

603
00:24:53,468 --> 00:24:54,318
Do you amend the motion by $10,000?

604
00:24:54,388 --> 00:24:58,128
I would amend my motion to include the $10,000 grant to the fire

605
00:24:58,208 --> 00:24:58,847
department.

606
00:24:59,688 --> 00:25:00,788
I would amend my second.

607
00:25:01,048 --> 00:25:01,268
Okay.

608
00:25:01,828 --> 00:25:03,728
So then the total figure that we're looking at is

609
00:25:03,908 --> 00:25:07,088
25,366?

610
00:25:07,148 --> 00:25:07,388
Yes.

611
00:25:07,468 --> 00:25:07,888
Is that correct?

612
00:25:08,088 --> 00:25:08,328
Yep.

613
00:25:09,468 --> 00:25:10,688
Any other questions? Fred?

614
00:25:11,248 --> 00:25:15,188
The question I would have is, what is the $10,000 going to be

615
00:25:15,708 --> 00:25:17,968
earmarked for? Is that something specific?

616
00:25:18,368 --> 00:25:19,808
So it's a specific base radio-

617
00:25:20,388 --> 00:25:20,608
A base radio

618
00:25:20,618 --> 00:25:23,788
... like 100 watt base radio to go up here to access, so we'll have two.

619
00:25:24,368 --> 00:25:24,658
Okay.

620
00:25:25,208 --> 00:25:28,548
And then we're also going to have large computer screens that will

621
00:25:28,608 --> 00:25:32,488
broadcast our HER, RIP, BEAP programs, and

622
00:25:32,508 --> 00:25:35,708
that, and what have

623
00:25:35,718 --> 00:25:37,048
you.

624
00:25:38,248 --> 00:25:41,548
Any more questions, comments? Seeing none. All in favor?

625
00:25:42,868 --> 00:25:43,268
I do.

626
00:25:43,568 --> 00:25:44,108
Thank you.

627
00:25:45,568 --> 00:25:46,328
Item number seven,

628
00:25:47,728 --> 00:25:50,048
County Commissioner Tom Selby, our warm-up here tonight.

629
00:25:51,468 --> 00:25:52,148
Thank you, Tom.

630
00:25:52,988 --> 00:25:53,308
That's good.

631
00:25:54,998 --> 00:25:55,208
So,

632
00:25:56,238 --> 00:25:56,728
thanks to you.

633
00:25:58,448 --> 00:26:00,888
Move on to item number eight, approve the minutes of August 11th.

634
00:26:01,108 --> 00:26:02,088
So moved.

635
00:26:02,128 --> 00:26:05,008
2025. Any remissions, Ed Das?

636
00:26:05,368 --> 00:26:09,128
Well, no, the only thing that I question is under number eight,

637
00:26:09,308 --> 00:26:13,188
the previous minutes and the board

638
00:26:13,228 --> 00:26:13,888
discussion

639
00:26:15,688 --> 00:26:18,748
that we talked about setting the sewer rates.

640
00:26:19,228 --> 00:26:22,328
And I believe D**k made some comments

641
00:26:23,328 --> 00:26:24,608
about that motion,

642
00:26:26,008 --> 00:26:29,808
that we would reconsider next year to catch back

643
00:26:29,908 --> 00:26:33,448
up, and I'm thinking that that should be part of what these minutes

644
00:26:33,688 --> 00:26:36,668
say, because that was, I thought,

645
00:26:37,288 --> 00:26:38,508
conditional upon

646
00:26:39,528 --> 00:26:41,048
accepting the 3%.

647
00:26:42,508 --> 00:26:44,628
I don't know. I mean, just to me-

648
00:26:44,968 --> 00:26:46,208
We did say that.

649
00:26:46,368 --> 00:26:46,528
Yeah.

650
00:26:46,658 --> 00:26:47,148
We had

651
00:26:48,188 --> 00:26:52,128
quite a discussion about that and the need to do it that way.

652
00:26:52,388 --> 00:26:52,608
So,

653
00:26:54,148 --> 00:26:58,008
I did not go back in to listen to the tape to see what the exact wording

654
00:26:58,068 --> 00:27:01,888
was, and if D**k doesn't feel, or the rest of you don't feel that it's

655
00:27:01,928 --> 00:27:03,608
important that we highlight that.

656
00:27:04,228 --> 00:27:06,038
But to me that was a-

657
00:27:06,038 --> 00:27:06,708
No, I think it's a good-

658
00:27:06,928 --> 00:27:07,938
It should be amended

659
00:27:07,938 --> 00:27:08,528
... it's a good catch.

660
00:27:08,988 --> 00:27:12,948
I don't know if that was a given, that we would expect

661
00:27:13,028 --> 00:27:13,968
that next year or-

662
00:27:14,068 --> 00:27:15,868
If it's not on paper, it's not a given.

663
00:27:15,928 --> 00:27:16,438
Yeah.

664
00:27:16,438 --> 00:27:17,028
Well, the con-

665
00:27:17,108 --> 00:27:18,088
It's that easy.

666
00:27:19,288 --> 00:27:23,028
The structure of the conversation was that I said that I would support

667
00:27:24,208 --> 00:27:28,048
the motion, but that next

668
00:27:28,128 --> 00:27:29,428
year I would remember it.

669
00:27:29,488 --> 00:27:29,588
Right.

670
00:27:30,148 --> 00:27:33,708
And I would be expecting to support a motion

671
00:27:34,308 --> 00:27:38,228
for a 3% increase next year. Rather than a three-year

672
00:27:38,988 --> 00:27:42,868
sewer rate set that, multi-year that seemed to have been in the past.

673
00:27:42,928 --> 00:27:45,708
And that was- That this would be a one-year increase ...

674
00:27:45,748 --> 00:27:49,688
and that was in response to the fact that we were only curing part of the deficit.

675
00:27:49,748 --> 00:27:50,028
Right.

676
00:27:50,648 --> 00:27:54,628
And the rest of the cure

677
00:27:54,688 --> 00:27:55,108
would be-

678
00:27:55,368 --> 00:27:55,468
Yeah

679
00:27:55,568 --> 00:27:59,288
... next year. Now, manager suggested that we could vote on that

680
00:28:00,488 --> 00:28:01,168
whole thing,

681
00:28:02,048 --> 00:28:05,968
that process at the last meeting, and we decided

682
00:28:06,268 --> 00:28:10,108
no, we wouldn't do that because we wanted to see next

683
00:28:10,148 --> 00:28:13,868
year's budget to see if the numbers changed any, if the deficit was any

684
00:28:14,148 --> 00:28:14,608
different.

685
00:28:15,868 --> 00:28:19,498
So we didn't take any action, it was just my saying that-

686
00:28:19,508 --> 00:28:19,828
Right

687
00:28:19,848 --> 00:28:23,628
... that would be my position. But the minutes reflecting

688
00:28:23,648 --> 00:28:26,737
discussion, I just thought that was part of the discussion, and to

689
00:28:26,737 --> 00:28:28,048
clarify.

690
00:28:28,118 --> 00:28:29,288
It makes sense to make it-

691
00:28:29,368 --> 00:28:29,628
Yeah

692
00:28:29,638 --> 00:28:30,628
... to put it in the record.

693
00:28:30,988 --> 00:28:32,898
Yeah. But not as part of the vote, but as part of the-

694
00:28:32,898 --> 00:28:35,448
But now it can be in the record for this meeting.

695
00:28:35,568 --> 00:28:36,228
Okay.

696
00:28:36,268 --> 00:28:37,488
Because I just said it.

697
00:28:39,968 --> 00:28:42,848
And so we don't need to go back and amend the old minutes-

698
00:28:43,148 --> 00:28:43,478
Okay. Okay

699
00:28:43,478 --> 00:28:46,868
... because now we're going to have it documented in this one,

700
00:28:47,748 --> 00:28:48,418
excuse me.

701
00:28:48,488 --> 00:28:49,608
I do.

702
00:28:49,688 --> 00:28:50,468
So thank you for that.

703
00:28:50,488 --> 00:28:51,988
That's fine with me.

704
00:28:52,248 --> 00:28:55,928
And where it will be a meeting off. It'll take them so a week to find it next

705
00:28:55,968 --> 00:28:56,928
year.

706
00:28:58,188 --> 00:28:59,728
It won't take me any time to remember.

707
00:29:00,088 --> 00:29:03,088
If you use the system online, you can just search sewer-

708
00:29:03,108 --> 00:29:03,688
This is true

709
00:29:03,748 --> 00:29:05,148
... rates and it will come up.

710
00:29:05,748 --> 00:29:07,258
Oh, no kidding. I need to write that one down.

711
00:29:07,988 --> 00:29:08,928
You have to get it online, Das.

712
00:29:09,998 --> 00:29:12,648
All right. There's been a motion to accept the minutes. Is there a second?

713
00:29:12,988 --> 00:29:13,468
Second.

714
00:29:13,508 --> 00:29:15,548
There's been a motion and a second to accept the minutes.

715
00:29:16,298 --> 00:29:17,348
Any other questions, comments?

716
00:29:18,368 --> 00:29:19,648
Seeing none. All in favor?

717
00:29:20,688 --> 00:29:21,168
Thank you.

718
00:29:25,628 --> 00:29:26,228
Other business.

719
00:29:27,528 --> 00:29:27,868
Erica?

720
00:29:28,148 --> 00:29:28,668
I have none.

721
00:29:29,228 --> 00:29:29,687
Okay.

722
00:29:32,448 --> 00:29:36,408
I know it kind of ties into you. I always like the

723
00:29:36,468 --> 00:29:40,248
idea of being able to hear how the progress is being done at the Hippic

724
00:29:40,288 --> 00:29:43,968
field. You go by there every day, there's always something different going on.

725
00:29:44,028 --> 00:29:44,168
And

726
00:29:45,008 --> 00:29:48,688
could you take just a couple of minutes to bring us up to date on what's out there

727
00:29:48,728 --> 00:29:49,228
right now?

728
00:29:50,008 --> 00:29:52,108
Yeah. So basically, I mean, there's a

729
00:29:53,108 --> 00:29:54,128
lot of activity. I mean-

730
00:29:55,248 --> 00:29:55,258
Mm-hmm

731
00:29:55,258 --> 00:29:58,248
... one site this morning, I mean, you got the skateboard park being constructed,

732
00:29:58,328 --> 00:29:58,598
you got

733
00:30:00,508 --> 00:30:03,388
the field guys gliding the fields and fixing that.

734
00:30:03,418 --> 00:30:03,418
Right.

735
00:30:03,428 --> 00:30:04,028
You saw that.

736
00:30:04,048 --> 00:30:06,188
We're doing all the baseball stuff that's being done today, too.

737
00:30:06,408 --> 00:30:06,627
Yeah.

738
00:30:06,668 --> 00:30:07,948
And the 27th. Yeah.

739
00:30:07,988 --> 00:30:09,208
And then, so Curb Saw-

740
00:30:09,548 --> 00:30:09,598
Mm-hmm

741
00:30:09,598 --> 00:30:13,058
... Curb Saw is the contracted curbing company that's actually doing the granite

742
00:30:13,188 --> 00:30:13,368
work.

743
00:30:13,878 --> 00:30:13,878
Mm-hmm.

744
00:30:13,888 --> 00:30:15,628
They do an amazing job.

745
00:30:16,128 --> 00:30:16,138
Mm.

746
00:30:16,208 --> 00:30:17,208
Unbelievable.

747
00:30:17,248 --> 00:30:18,288
They're moving fast.

748
00:30:18,428 --> 00:30:19,288
They're fast.

749
00:30:19,328 --> 00:30:19,338
Yeah.

750
00:30:19,368 --> 00:30:20,048
So fast.

751
00:30:20,108 --> 00:30:20,198
Yeah.

752
00:30:20,888 --> 00:30:23,348
So, I would recommend them to anybody

753
00:30:24,836 --> 00:30:27,816
Yeah. So, I'm down there on a regular basis.

754
00:30:27,896 --> 00:30:31,136
I was down there this morning, just trying to figure out.

755
00:30:31,196 --> 00:30:34,396
I think I told this to Erica,

756
00:30:35,276 --> 00:30:39,136
and John, there's going to be a future change order in drainage,

757
00:30:39,716 --> 00:30:41,956
but the change order is going to be a decrease in cost,

758
00:30:43,176 --> 00:30:46,896
which is a great thing because hydrology, you

759
00:30:47,836 --> 00:30:50,096
tend to... That's overkill as well at first,

760
00:30:50,956 --> 00:30:53,576
until you start to get into the ground disturbance stuff and expose things.

761
00:30:53,676 --> 00:30:53,876
So-

762
00:30:54,196 --> 00:30:55,696
Shooting some numbers

763
00:30:56,196 --> 00:30:59,016
... shoot some numbers. But the biggest struggle right now, we're still waiting on

764
00:30:59,076 --> 00:31:00,196
three easements,

765
00:31:01,716 --> 00:31:05,616
from individuals locally, in order to get the poles relocated.

766
00:31:06,225 --> 00:31:09,076
So I believe there was five already returned and ready to go, so we're still

767
00:31:09,116 --> 00:31:13,036
working on three. They're going to do all the work around

768
00:31:13,056 --> 00:31:16,436
the poles, install the granite curbing up to 10 feet to the poles.

769
00:31:16,976 --> 00:31:20,796
CMP technically allows two to three feet, but they're going to say 10 feet just to

770
00:31:20,836 --> 00:31:24,776
not jeopardize anything. But once those poles are relocated,

771
00:31:24,836 --> 00:31:28,496
then the ball is going to start to happen, the full foundation, because they have

772
00:31:28,536 --> 00:31:29,676
to dig six feet,

773
00:31:30,896 --> 00:31:32,156
a footer on the wall,

774
00:31:32,996 --> 00:31:34,596
only a few feet from a telephone pole.

775
00:31:34,716 --> 00:31:34,876
So,

776
00:31:36,316 --> 00:31:36,876
trick is fine.

777
00:31:37,116 --> 00:31:37,916
Not a great idea.

778
00:31:40,196 --> 00:31:40,206
No.

779
00:31:40,216 --> 00:31:41,776
But now it's coming along great, this.

780
00:31:42,666 --> 00:31:44,326
How is the advanced team?

781
00:31:45,616 --> 00:31:47,636
I'm coming to the next meeting with a change order.

782
00:31:47,736 --> 00:31:48,456
I'm just waiting on-

783
00:31:48,556 --> 00:31:48,676
Oh.

784
00:31:49,136 --> 00:31:50,675
Yeah, we'll wait for that next meeting.

785
00:31:50,716 --> 00:31:53,016
Yeah. So, I'll be there next week.

786
00:31:53,136 --> 00:31:55,216
Working to get different quotes that are-

787
00:31:56,156 --> 00:31:56,496
Reasonable

788
00:31:56,616 --> 00:31:57,636
... reasonable. Yeah.

789
00:31:58,116 --> 00:31:58,126
Yeah.

790
00:31:58,136 --> 00:31:59,296
That's a great word to put that.

791
00:31:59,376 --> 00:31:59,936
Yeah.

792
00:32:00,496 --> 00:32:00,716
Yeah.

793
00:32:01,696 --> 00:32:02,736
It's foreboding.

794
00:32:05,596 --> 00:32:06,376
It's like an ashtray.

795
00:32:07,796 --> 00:32:11,786
The yellow tape is no longer stretched across, but I suspect it's not from

796
00:32:11,856 --> 00:32:12,716
you guys taking it down.

797
00:32:12,796 --> 00:32:12,996
Right.

798
00:32:13,196 --> 00:32:13,336
No.

799
00:32:14,116 --> 00:32:14,716
Yeah.

800
00:32:14,766 --> 00:32:15,556
The wind.

801
00:32:15,576 --> 00:32:16,506
Yeah, the wind.

802
00:32:16,636 --> 00:32:18,976
187 mile an hour wind that whipped through it.

803
00:32:19,196 --> 00:32:19,966
The 185 mile an hour wind.

804
00:32:20,256 --> 00:32:20,516
Yeah.

805
00:32:20,796 --> 00:32:21,416
Sorry.

806
00:32:21,516 --> 00:32:21,636
Yeah.

807
00:32:22,876 --> 00:32:23,896
Good, Donna, Randy?

808
00:32:24,356 --> 00:32:24,616
I'm good.

809
00:32:24,656 --> 00:32:25,496
Good.

810
00:32:25,536 --> 00:32:29,456
The good news is you get to watch what's going on in slow motion as you

811
00:32:29,496 --> 00:32:33,175
go down- ... that site every day.

812
00:32:33,476 --> 00:32:35,936
Two things, old business type stuff.

813
00:32:36,816 --> 00:32:40,676
I'm wondering

814
00:32:40,716 --> 00:32:44,376
what the update is on, I see we got a bill on the cemetery, and

815
00:32:44,976 --> 00:32:48,936
they're doing all kinds of work on the park aspect of the

816
00:32:48,976 --> 00:32:52,836
cemetery. I'm wondering where we are with the park monuments

817
00:32:52,936 --> 00:32:55,196
at downtown, and the

818
00:32:56,096 --> 00:32:59,836
sister city monument as well, that that's

819
00:32:59,856 --> 00:33:02,676
something that's been discussed and going to be looked at.

820
00:33:02,756 --> 00:33:06,036
And, I'm just wondering where we are with that.

821
00:33:06,416 --> 00:33:09,836
I haven't submitted it yet. I've shown it to Erica.

822
00:33:10,676 --> 00:33:13,096
For the Lake Megantic, we have a

823
00:33:13,956 --> 00:33:16,556
bench typed in there with the same type of format.

824
00:33:18,576 --> 00:33:22,196
And Ken's looking around to try and tie in

825
00:33:22,296 --> 00:33:25,936
the World War II monument with that, and so they kind of go

826
00:33:25,996 --> 00:33:26,816
together.

827
00:33:26,876 --> 00:33:27,236
Okay.

828
00:33:28,096 --> 00:33:29,706
There's more to come. It is in the works.

829
00:33:29,996 --> 00:33:30,226
It's creeping along.

830
00:33:30,226 --> 00:33:31,036
It has been slow.

831
00:33:31,256 --> 00:33:31,856
Okay.

832
00:33:31,916 --> 00:33:34,176
At a snail's pace, but it is creeping.

833
00:33:34,396 --> 00:33:35,326
Well, I just want to keep-

834
00:33:35,376 --> 00:33:35,596
Yeah, no

835
00:33:35,776 --> 00:33:36,596
... that can around.

836
00:33:36,816 --> 00:33:37,396
It is, yeah.

837
00:33:37,996 --> 00:33:38,776
Or your can.

838
00:33:38,976 --> 00:33:40,456
It's okay.

839
00:33:41,336 --> 00:33:44,245
And the other thing, while Phil is still sitting here and attentive,

840
00:33:45,176 --> 00:33:48,056
we did talk about getting a cost for

841
00:33:49,916 --> 00:33:50,756
cure

842
00:33:51,776 --> 00:33:53,816
at the Little League field out at Philbrook.

843
00:33:55,096 --> 00:33:56,756
Oh, that's still ongoing.

844
00:33:56,796 --> 00:34:00,076
Well, yes, and I understand there's a lot of other stuff happening, but part of

845
00:34:00,136 --> 00:34:03,976
that whole thing is you had said it would be relatively easy to come up

846
00:34:04,016 --> 00:34:07,616
with what it would cost us to, in fact, improve

847
00:34:07,976 --> 00:34:10,616
the drainage and make it more playable and whatever.

848
00:34:10,996 --> 00:34:13,336
A side issue to the other.

849
00:34:13,377 --> 00:34:13,976
Everything else.

850
00:34:14,296 --> 00:34:14,495
Yeah.

851
00:34:14,917 --> 00:34:17,877
We're setting up a time to shoot more grades out there.

852
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:18,176
Yeah.

853
00:34:18,417 --> 00:34:21,776
Right now, obviously, I think it's been the focus this week with having to get

854
00:34:22,417 --> 00:34:23,696
all the change orders and things ready.

855
00:34:24,377 --> 00:34:27,716
I just know in those moments when you're slow and wondering what you can do to bide

856
00:34:28,096 --> 00:34:30,516
your time- ... I want to keep that on your plate.

857
00:34:31,136 --> 00:34:32,116
Yeah.

858
00:34:32,176 --> 00:34:33,296
That's it. That's all I got.

859
00:34:35,127 --> 00:34:36,336
Okay. Anything?

860
00:34:37,076 --> 00:34:39,576
I'm glad to see the paving going on around town.

861
00:34:39,696 --> 00:34:40,076
Mm.

862
00:34:40,386 --> 00:34:44,156
43's done out to Mosher Hill. They even got a

863
00:34:44,196 --> 00:34:45,095
second coat on it.

864
00:34:46,095 --> 00:34:49,676
It is really bogged down in traffic out there.

865
00:34:50,056 --> 00:34:54,026
Yeah. I've been traveling to Wilton a lot this year, and

866
00:34:54,036 --> 00:34:57,056
they're working around the lake and on the backside of the lake, and it's

867
00:34:57,216 --> 00:34:57,896
miserable. So,

868
00:34:58,716 --> 00:34:59,886
thankfully, they got most of that done.

869
00:34:59,886 --> 00:35:02,156
Progress is miserable. They have a lot done.

870
00:35:02,396 --> 00:35:02,696
Yeah.

871
00:35:03,556 --> 00:35:04,196
I did want to-

872
00:35:04,616 --> 00:35:05,036
Yeah, go ahead

873
00:35:05,296 --> 00:35:06,536
... so I did want to just welcome

874
00:35:07,996 --> 00:35:10,336
Nathan Hills to our meeting tonight.

875
00:35:11,816 --> 00:35:14,596
He's a newly elected selectman over in Wilton.

876
00:35:14,636 --> 00:35:14,956
And-

877
00:35:16,496 --> 00:35:17,186
My condolences

878
00:35:17,316 --> 00:35:18,796
I was just going to say the same thing.

879
00:35:18,896 --> 00:35:22,696
He probably came here to listen to Tom Samiolo, which Tom Samiolo isn't

880
00:35:22,736 --> 00:35:24,196
here. Or maybe he has some other issue.

881
00:35:24,676 --> 00:35:27,756
But I did note the other day that Nate is offering

882
00:35:29,136 --> 00:35:30,036
a public meeting.

883
00:35:30,716 --> 00:35:30,856
Yeah.

884
00:35:30,896 --> 00:35:34,416
What is it, every Friday at Steve's Market

885
00:35:35,156 --> 00:35:38,105
over in Dryden from like 11:00 to 12:00.

886
00:35:38,276 --> 00:35:41,816
Anybody who wants to come and sit at a picnic table and discuss either

887
00:35:41,936 --> 00:35:45,926
Farmington/Wilton common issues, or if you happen to own property in Wilton,

888
00:35:46,096 --> 00:35:49,196
a Wilton issue. Anyway, thought it was a great idea, and

889
00:35:50,116 --> 00:35:51,526
so kudos to Nate.

890
00:35:51,636 --> 00:35:51,736
Yeah.

891
00:35:52,076 --> 00:35:52,316
Thanks.

892
00:35:52,846 --> 00:35:54,696
And good luck. Mr.

893
00:35:56,756 --> 00:35:57,256
Spiell.

894
00:35:58,596 --> 00:36:02,076
The reason I came here tonight, I knew

895
00:36:02,156 --> 00:36:05,536
Jennifer and Tim would be here. Unfortunately, Tim has left.

896
00:36:06,436 --> 00:36:06,696
But,

897
00:36:08,036 --> 00:36:11,396
I had a concern about, I attended

898
00:36:12,156 --> 00:36:16,096
night baseball games this summer at the Hickory field, and

899
00:36:16,156 --> 00:36:19,016
there was at least seven lights out.

900
00:36:19,816 --> 00:36:23,636
And on one post hole, it was actually a

901
00:36:23,716 --> 00:36:27,316
fixture missing. And when we installed those

902
00:36:27,356 --> 00:36:31,096
lights a few years ago, the rec

903
00:36:31,176 --> 00:36:34,966
department and the fire department worked together with their

904
00:36:35,156 --> 00:36:37,176
ladder truck to replace those bulbs.

905
00:36:37,216 --> 00:36:41,036
And I just want to update why we've got so many lights

906
00:36:41,056 --> 00:36:41,616
out now.

907
00:36:42,276 --> 00:36:43,976
I did not see that many lights out, so

908
00:36:45,296 --> 00:36:46,676
are they still powered off right now?

909
00:36:46,896 --> 00:36:47,446
Yeah. They're locked and powered off.

910
00:36:47,446 --> 00:36:50,976
The electricity's still powered off right now, but I know we've talked with

911
00:36:51,036 --> 00:36:54,436
Jennings and that I'm meeting with them regularly, updating those each season.

912
00:36:54,496 --> 00:36:57,576
So, and now that I'm glad that you're mentioning it to me, because I don't always

913
00:36:57,596 --> 00:37:00,596
drive back at night, dark. I'm surprised none of the coaches have mentioned it to

914
00:37:00,636 --> 00:37:03,366
me, so I will reach out to them regarding that, because

915
00:37:03,416 --> 00:37:07,256
normally they would've already brought that to my attention, so thank you

916
00:37:07,296 --> 00:37:07,606
for mentioning it.

917
00:37:07,636 --> 00:37:09,556
It's something that should be done this fall.

918
00:37:09,636 --> 00:37:12,706
In the spring, the ground's too soft with a ladder truck.

919
00:37:12,726 --> 00:37:16,276
Right. As long as I have electricity, and we're good to do permission to be in

920
00:37:16,296 --> 00:37:20,236
there to do things, we already have a plan for the lights, so

921
00:37:20,296 --> 00:37:22,096
I'm surprised that that is the case.

922
00:37:22,116 --> 00:37:23,396
So they will be able to replace-

923
00:37:23,736 --> 00:37:23,976
Correct

924
00:37:24,016 --> 00:37:25,896
... this fall and a new fixture.

925
00:37:27,096 --> 00:37:28,376
Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

926
00:37:31,616 --> 00:37:32,176
Anything else?

927
00:37:33,416 --> 00:37:35,296
Seeing nothing, we'll move on to item number 10.

928
00:37:35,796 --> 00:37:38,816
It's a holding executive session pursuant to 1 MRS Section

929
00:37:39,076 --> 00:37:41,496
4056A, personnel matters.

930
00:37:43,296 --> 00:37:44,316
Can I have a motion and a second?

931
00:37:44,836 --> 00:37:45,276
So moved.

932
00:37:46,056 --> 00:37:46,596
And a second.

933
00:37:48,096 --> 00:37:48,736
Peace to you, too.

934
00:37:49,596 --> 00:37:51,956
We've got a motion and a second. Any other questions, comments?

935
00:37:51,976 --> 00:37:54,676
Seeing none, all in favor? Thank you.

936
00:37:55,056 --> 00:37:55,836
Thank you all for coming
