[4:56] Um public comment. Is there anybody
online?
[5:01] » We are okay. Is there anybody out here
that has anything?
[5:07] » None.
>> No.
[5:08] » As our county rep, since there's nothing
going on, is there anything that you
[5:13] would like to share with us?
>> Uh, the only thing like, well, we
[5:16] already talked about it earlier, you
know, all year. Um, I said retiring his
[5:22] replacement. Uh, I think it was Matt
Nico. I don't quote me on that last
[5:27] name. Um,
very educated. He's also got a lot of
[5:32] experience in the field. Um, we're
looking forward to working with him. The
[5:38] county is also going to be um selling
off their uh some of their equipment for
[5:46] um making
gravel different for so we'll be selling
[5:52] that out going forward.
So that's something that you know we'll
[5:58] we'll deal with that I'm sure about
projects to begin with some of that but
[6:03] actually it's a benefit for everybody
because
[6:06] you know the cost of the equipment is
expensive
[6:10] is expensive it's signative
value left in it u and then like the
[6:17] other around um they have uh like
coming and then actually make the gravel
[6:26] themselves. It's cheaper for buying the
gravel than to actually make it
[6:31] ourselves.
>> Yeah. So it's u are they going to keep
[6:35] operating the quaries though but someone
else will do it or they're shut
[6:39] down.
>> They're not spending but they'll they'll
[6:41] operate for somebody else coming
crushing because the crushing for some
[6:45] of these other people the equipment is
newer. It's easier for them to get in
[6:48] and out with the county stuff is old and
it takes you know
[6:52] » time
>> time and a lot so this is a win.
[6:57] » What's the timeline on that to I mean it
had to be all bids.
[7:01] » Uh well I mean like as far as like bids
and time we have enough gravel and stuff
[7:06] going for the next two years so we won't
have to worry about that part of it. Um
[7:12] the most part yeah we're we're looking
pretty good as far as um as far as um
[7:19] really all I have on that other stuff is
still I'm not research planning that's
[7:24] all in the work that all the only be
the storage containers um little
[7:32] shipping containers that's the only
thing that's on two I look at that
[7:37] probably this Thursday so I really
haven't actually
[7:41] you know. So, uh and then the other
thing that came up in that be the
[7:46] conditional use permits u different
townships have their conditions for
[7:51] various uh projects
things like that. Um that kind of came
[7:57] up also. Um, as far as that is
concerned,
[8:02] enforceable has to worry about, you
know, just take this. So, and a little
[8:07] bit of multip
we're sitting pretty good here for other
[8:14] than that.
>> Storage containers. Is there any
[8:17] grandfathering need if they're there on
the property? Now,
[8:20] » if you already have them there, they're
going to get grandfathered in regardless
[8:24] of what you know. Some some people think
that well no you got to get rid of the
[8:27] ones you have it'll be grandfather way I
understand you can't really force
[8:32] someone to get rid of it after they've
had it for years you know at that point
[8:36] what does
I'm not going to call that but yeah they
[8:40] should be grandfathered it forward so
>> so this is to the last stage basically
[8:45] you're going to be in the voting stage
of it if it passes your meeting then
[8:49] that's what's happening
>> yeah basically we're finalizing the
[8:52] thing which solved
So keep your
[8:56] » All right. Thank you. Well, thank you.
>> Okay. Um, Southern Fire Department
[9:02] report.
[9:06] » You want me, Christ?
>> Do you Maybe I should ask a question. Do
[9:11] you have something that you want to get
to or are you here for a little bit?
[9:15] » I was to say, "Nope, I'm free." So,
>> okay.
[9:19] » Doesn't matter. I'm staying. So if
you're staying then we'll do his report
[9:23] and then we're going to come right
mine's short but it's small. Okay short
[9:28] that's the uh seems to be the theme
right here. So, our last meeting was
[9:32] last week, August 12th. The treasurer
treasurer reported 14,
[9:38] $3160
in our checking,
[9:42] $43,6120
[9:46] in our money market,
$57,220
[9:52] and1 in one of the CDs
and $59,75625
[10:01] in the other CD.
for a grand total of 174
[10:08] 69 and 6s.
Teresa, do you need those numbers?
[10:14] » No, I got sorry.
>> So, the chief reported seven EMR calls
[10:21] and five fire calls. As for the fire
calls, July 24th, the evening before the
[10:28] picnic and parade
at 7:10 p.m., they they responded to
[10:34] Mutual Lake above fire department for a
um
[10:40] farm equipment fired around Boron fire.
That was at 7:10 p.m. They provided the
[10:46] brush truck and the UTV. That was
requested from about July 24th, same
[10:52] night, a little later on in the evening,
9:56 p.m. at 113 Sun Drive for a
[10:59] structure fire. Also in the the B
department area provided an engine, a
[11:06] tender and a chief, but they passed on
the squad. Um chief said they had gotten
[11:12] bed at midnight that night in their salv
the night before the pedigan parade.
[11:18] So July 27th a couple days later at
south 1583 state highway 42 I believe
[11:25] that's in the village of Forsville yet
for neighbor who heard a smoke alarm
[11:30] sounding at his neighbor's voice.
They gained access to the home but no
[11:36] problems were found just fault the
veteran things are going on with them.
[11:42] August 4th 4337
he for a missing person's search with
[11:48] that was mutual aid to a Harvard
provided a squad and a UTV but were
[11:54] cancelled soon after I was before they
got there or as they got there.
[12:00] August 12th um 4162
colm for a garage fire mutual aid to
[12:06] Nasawi provided an engine and a tender
and the chief cancelled and routed. So
[12:13] nothing,
you know, nothing really.
[12:17] So nothing is good.
>> The training in August was a tour of the
[12:21] Door County Communications Center. Um,
Byron really had an eye opening on what
[12:28] what what they hear on their radio was
coming out of the command center. It was
[12:33] really beneficial for them to
to see that to have a tour at the G
[12:38] Center.
There's a young guy has applied for
[12:42] employment. He's I'm going I'm not going
to mention the name, but he's he's a
[12:47] 16year-old youth from
the area. Um we do have a young fireman
[12:54] program
training starts tomorrow. We have not
[12:59] heard whether he's attending or not. So
but we do have this young fireman, let's
[13:05] call them junior fireman training
program.
[13:10] Um the department is still waiting to
hear back on some of the grant
[13:13] applications that were submitted.
The fire department was the recipient of
[13:20] the 11th bingo game held at the hen
house um last week August 11th with with
[13:29] the proceeds of the last bingo game
going to the summer fire department for
[13:34] 180 $189.
So we thank the hen house for
[13:39] they do a nice job
>> and the firefighter picnic was July
[13:43] 25th. Um there is no numbers in yet
because there's still outstanding
[13:49] outstanding bills yet some major
outstanding bills for
[13:55] sure. So the overall feeling was it went
over very very well. Mother nature
[14:00] cooperated with the good weather and so
but no no final numbers have come in
[14:05] yet.
>> All right.
[14:08] Um,
just a heads up, our our next meeting
[14:12] September 9th at 7 p.m. The ending
meeting September 23rd,
[14:17] 7 p.m.

$300 memorial donation from
[14:26] past firefighter
who who uh recently passed away, Ben
[14:31] Feaster. Got a $300. The memorials
memorials were designated from the screw
[14:37] to go to the southern program. So we got

asset. 2015
[16:15] is when Shton got Yeah. been a good long
time. So, uh, does anybody have any
[16:24] questions for Lee? If not,

[16:38] » have you been doing this already? Just

think I'm going to put it to a vote
[17:10] here. So all in favor of appointing
Colleen as our town representative for
[17:14] the fire department. I
>> I
[17:16] » I and oppose hearing none that will

[17:24] » we have your hold of office right away
with us. No. So with both have you stand
[17:32] right hand says state of Wisconsin and
door counties says I Queen Michaels have
[17:38] been elected or appointed to the office
of southern North fire department board
[17:42] of directors two-year term from
September 1st 2026 to August 31st of
[17:48] 2028

[17:52] duties therefore swear that I will
support the Constitution of the United
[17:56] States the Constitution of the State
Wisconsin will faithfully discard the
[18:01] duties sent office to the best of my
ability. Help me God.
[18:06] Okay. Sign your office. Congratulations.
>> That was a lifetime term though, not a
[18:13] year.
[18:17] » That's pretty much how it goes, right?
[18:24] » Yeah. Just gonna hang around with us.
All right.
[18:26] » Feel free. You're more than welcome. All
right. Item number eight is the MA
[18:32] Maplewood Sanitary District. There is
nobody here, but they have sent meeting
[18:37] minutes which we have had passed out and
been read before this. Was there any
[18:43] questions on any of those meeting
minutes that any of the board members
[18:46] have had?
>> No.
[18:49] » And we will move on to the next item.
Proposal for the town hall stripping and
[18:54] refinishing of the floors. So,
>> the last time we had the floors done was
[18:58] back in 2023.
So, I called Josh by floors and he
[19:03] doesn't do stripping like this, he said.
So, he gave me um the master care
[19:09] cleaning service and janitorial
supplies.
[19:11] » So, I have him come and do a quote of
the building and the quote I think I
[19:17] emailed everybody a chance to read it.
So, it also includes bathrooms and the
[19:21] two rugs for $1,285.28.
So, it'll be this floor, the kitchen,
[19:27] the hallway, the two bathrooms, and the
rugs.
[19:31] » Um,
>> so I had one question.
[19:33] » The bathrooms because that's a specific
type of flooring in there.
[19:37] » And I know they had said that, right?
That's that's not this type of surface.
[19:40] It's more of a
>> right
[19:42] » rubbery thing. The product they're
putting on there is going to be
[19:46] acceptable for that. Correct. I mean
just something
[19:48] » I think so because he saw the extra
tiles in the storage room.
[19:53] » Okay.
>> And he said that that's wasn't what was
[19:56] installed in the bathrooms.
>> Okay.
[19:58] » So,
>> right. I just want to make sure you know
[20:02] that
>> and him and his worker did come and
[20:05] physically looked at the floors when
they before they quote.
[20:08] » Yep.
>> So, yeah. So, I would say he knows that
[20:12] it's two different surface that. And
then I told him I would like it after
[20:16] the baseball game and now they're
playing in playoffs on Sunday just
[20:20] because you know with a new floor I
don't want too much
[20:24] that.
>> So I just took this upon myself because
[20:27] it's been three years since we had it
>> in the last boat was 1,600 or last time
[20:32] we did it was actually more $1,669.
I just
[20:38] » kind that fast
>> and I know we only now it's in the
[20:42] budget for who cares about what I
thought of what we made of it, you know.
[20:47] » Well, if we don't maintain it, we will
have problems and
[20:51] » it's just a whole lot better.
>> And they said they would put the chairs
[20:53] outside because they're going to move
all the tables. They're like, I don't
[20:57] even have the heater. I can just give
them to
[21:00] » I have a question again.
Is the rug
[21:06] They're going to put the rug outside.
>> No, no. The rug in that room.
[21:10] » Do we even bother with that or just at
some point get serious about replacing
[21:14] that whole
>> book in that room?
[21:16] » Replacing.
>> But is it is it hard floor underneath? I
[21:21] mean, is it
>> No, but it's going to be concrete under
[21:23] this country.
>> No,
[21:26] » right. But it's just basically I mean
yeah
[21:28] » you guys have been here
>> as members of board members before and I
[21:32] know we're not supposed to whatever but
we're going to ask anyway
[21:36] » for your opinions on this right
>> these days you better replace it.
[21:40] » Okay. That's kind of how my feeling is
on it as well. But I I
[21:44] » maybe next year we could do that. Maybe
some painting on the walls.
[21:48] » Really?
>> Yeah.
[21:49] » I mean the supplement we can budget.
>> Yeah. We we already have $1,000 in the
[21:53] budget for this year. you know, maybe
>> maybe 1500 and maybe people would I
[22:00] don't know how much I have no idea what
>> there's been so much.
[22:05] » Well, I don't know that you're going to
put carpet back in there. I would just
[22:08] with a luxury vinyl of some
but
[22:11] » that would be a better approach because
that carpet.
[22:15] » Yeah. And it's
[22:21] okay.
[22:28] » So my opinion is is I think this is
acceptable. I think it's a fair number
[22:33] for what they're doing.
>> Do you guys have any you want to put on
[22:38] before we put something else over here?
[22:43] Motion saved.
floor accept the quote as
[22:50] I'll second that.
>> All right. I have a motion from Lauren
[22:52] to accept the quote as presented for the
$1,28528
[22:58] and a second from David. All in favor? I
>> opposed. Hearing none that will carry.
[23:06] » So then you'll need another check signed
for that. Um,
[23:09] » or they usually
>> I guess would be your next
[23:14] » he had plans to do it this week, but now
that baseball's coming
[23:18] to do it after.
>> Thank you for
[23:22] this bill.
>> No, he's probably disill.
[23:27] » Okay. So, do you need authorization that
if it's done within and he's like,
[23:31] "Well, I got to have my payment
beforehand because we don't have an
[23:34] amount over there or you want to have
the okay to write out a check and we
[23:41] sign it as needed."
>> Yes, I want to have the okay, but the
[23:44] check
>> or just tell him he's got to wait till
[23:47] next month.
>> I mean, by the time he does it, it's
[23:50] » it'll be next month. He might not even
build it that fast. Who knows? Depends
[23:53] when it's building cycles. It could be a
day or it could be days or month knows
[24:00] how tall
>> that's just yeah knows
[24:04] » we can just live with it the way it is
good once we get the work done at our
[24:09] next board meeting
>> okay thank you for doing this
[24:12] » perfect
[24:16] and that's fine
>> okay cemetery report
[24:21] » we've had on and off issues up there but
the uh it's quiet, it's clean.
[24:29] Those rotten hot moon stones really come
apart up there now.
[24:35] Um, and I had one
headstone placement a couple of weeks
[24:40] ago and uh they almost put it wrong
place
[24:52] and
anyway they got it in
[24:57] I had a couple more inquiries but I'm
not sure if there's any anything that
[25:03] All right, secretaries, please complain
about there. Perfect. Just move through
[25:08] here.
>> All right. Is there any updates or
[25:11] changes on a Gov and the websites?
>> I have updates to the website. So, we
[25:16] talked about the Tom
and the Tom. So, now they have updated
[25:21] when you write it online. It was your
name, address, and phone number. So,
[25:26] perfect. Billion and Tom that was
updated last week.
[25:30] » Thank you. All right.
>> Yeah. They also provided to an
[25:33] invoiceer. I got that invoice for the
annual update which I forwarded. I
[25:39] assume
>> everybody booked editing and bills.
[25:42] » And there's my only question on the
website is that scroll we had running
[25:49] since May saying they're going to do
some eval reevaluation.
[25:55] » Well, we're still not 100%. I was just
going to leave it till we have the
[25:59] border review.
>> That's fine. Because
[26:01] » and that's in October, right?
>> September. I think October. Yeah.
[26:04] » September
review. All right. Yeah. Leave that out
[26:09] there. But other than that, we're
apologize for two things. One, not being
[26:15] timely in case you know uh recording
posted uh to the website. And at the
[26:22] beginning of tonight's recording, the
panorama
[26:26] at the top was also missing. Uh so I had
to make an adjustment to that during the
[26:32] baby start. So anybody who's watching
this wondering what is going on
[26:39] » just shows we're off the baby just shows
we're not the baby. Well, we're getting
[26:43] there.
[26:48] » Yeah. But other than that, uh I think
they've integrated an awful lot of uh
[26:53] the clerk minutes stuff into the uh into
our dashboard. So it's a lot easier for
[27:01] you, Teresa, as far as I can tell
>> because you can just download it Zoom
[27:05] and then you can upload it right into
first minutes. Correct. Yeah.
[27:09] » And there's also that option of
instantly publishing minutes. And we
[27:14] don't we don't
policy,
[27:18] » but that was a change they made last
month. So
[27:20] » yeah, follow us.
>> Okay. To that.
[27:25] » Um would you have any correspondence?
>> Me either. And everything I had I dealt
[27:29] with. There's more complaints than
correspondence.
[27:34] » Um as far as roads and road work, um
everything is still on track for what
[27:41] was started with C
Yeah, they've got the gravel down.
[27:45] » Yeah,
>> right. Well, they got to wen it up and
[27:49] widen it
rain.
[27:53] » Yeah, would be nice.
>> We will get those bushes pulled out when
[27:56] they're done.
>> Sure.
[27:59] » Yeah, those
[28:03] nothing
[28:07] work. Yeah,
>> I got a call from a constituent on North
[28:12] Forest Road, that's the other side of
the dam down, wondering if we could
[28:18] lower the speed limit on the road.
[28:25] » So, this is what happens if you try to
lower the speed limit. We got to do a
[28:29] test, right? you got to run a highway
test which we have to pay for
[28:34] um because there were other spots where
that question had come into play.
[28:41] Then what happens they take that study
which you're going to pay for
[28:48] and you can only go down a certain
percent of what they're speeding over
[28:52] the top of the speed limit. Okay? So if
it was 55 there and bull are doing 60
[28:59] and
you're only going to get a percentage
[29:04] of that and that's it. So it's a long
drawn out process. So I can have it but
[29:11] it isn't just oh I want to drop it
whatever.
[29:14] That's what I have been told by that and
just side
[29:24] intersection 42 over the county pole.
>> Yeah.
[29:27] » Aren't there some miles hour
signs there at 35?
[29:35] That was before my time. We never once
changed the speed limit on any of those
[29:40] roads.
>> It's not the white. It's not the white
[29:42] signs. It's the yellow.
>> It's the yellow.
[29:48] » It's a suggestion. It's not something
like that because this guy says he has
[29:55] um any
children and he's concerned. He said the
[30:01] people who live down there are generally
not the problem. It's
[30:05] » this is this is you were suggesting
what north forest
[30:11] » um it's the delivery trucks UPS
whatever
[30:18] » that I think your the board would do
that we would do suggestion um child at
[30:24] play
>> and he was wondering is there is there
[30:27] some type of
>> it would be a cautionary
[30:30] advisory
>> is there some type of handicap sign that
[30:33] can also be
I'm almost thinking you could almost get
[30:36] any sign you wanted somewhat maybe if
you know what I'm saying from from we
[30:40] order what you want right children
>> handicap child at play or children that
[30:45] play like thing
[30:49] whatever we would hope to suggest but
will somebody get a ticket because they
[30:54] were going over that absolutely not
unless somebody
[31:00] wants to issue a citation and go through
that process
[31:05] But we have no way of radar.
How would you prove it?
[31:10] » Correct.
>> So that that we could do Lauren. That is
[31:15] an absolute possibility. Is that
something you get to look in and they
[31:19] get a
sign or whatever?
[31:23] » Joe Bader.
>> Yeah, Joe Ber. I can go and make a
[31:26] couple phone calls to find out what the
sign will cost. We already know what the
[31:29] post is going to cost.
adjusted if you would he would be
[31:34] willing to pay for the signing. Okay. So
back to then I I don't see an issue with
[31:43] that. We could do some form of something
to help a yellow speed limit caution.
[31:49] » But for us to physically drop the speed
limit legally is a long process and an
[31:55] expensive one.
So therefore, I don't think that would
[32:00] be very
>> contact Joe Bay. We'll see whether I
[32:04] mean it's it's it's it's
55 technically now down there. So
[32:13] can we draw up a 35? Is that
>> you could put the suggestion at 35?
[32:17] » Sure.
>> The yellow sign,
[32:20] » right?
Road between the highway and we break
[32:26] through.
>> It is That's exactly what we did.
[32:31] » Yep. I would be fine with that.
>> So, we'll find out what it is and then
[32:36] » in fact, I'll get back to him when we're
looking into it.
[32:40] » Probably like him to pick up what she
suggested. Anyway,
[32:46] » okay. Forest is that North Forks yard of
the I was contacting Martha so up with
[32:55] the ditches that you guys building after
that rain and she you know there's a
[32:58] little M coming to I said well there
hasn't enough rain for it to really
[33:02] throw back rash she just called and says
you know she just really wanted I didn't
[33:07] know it was great she she was very happy
with what you guys did
[33:12] » well I think it was always she's always
getting water here now because Well,
[33:16] through it, which I'm surprised that she
hasn't
[33:19] » Well, I think because the field that you
guys are working on was was uh plowed
[33:24] and there was no planting. So,
>> but she used to cut the whole ditch. So,
[33:28] I'm surprised that she hasn't complained
that there's well, she's not able to cut
[33:33] the whole ditch.
>> She was just not sure if it was
[33:35] finished. She said that wanted to
consider a closed matter as of yet, but
[33:39] she did. Thank you. They did a very nice
job. So, I'm glad you know that. But she
[33:45] she's had, you know, just wants it to be
something that we keep an eye on, right?
[33:50] So,
thank you for that.
[33:54] » Right. Um, as far as right away,
I didn't chance to go with that too
[34:00] much.
>> Yeah, I mean, that's fine. There's not
[34:02] uh there's going to be that very soon.
>> Yeah.
[34:07] Okay, that's all I have on u.
[34:12] » Yeah. Um, we did I guess there is one
more thing. We did receive the grant
[34:20] approval.
There there's multiple steps to the
[34:23] approval process that so one is them
telling me you're approved but you
[34:30] cannot do anything until they send me
the signed agreements. Okay, we don't
[34:35] have a signed agreement. So the culvert
that we applied for bridge, right?
[34:43] We got approved for the one
to
[34:48] replace and fix it.
>> Maple wood. Is that wood?
[34:52] » I believe it's the one on maple wood
near maple or is it wild
[34:58] co?
>> It was the worst one is what it was.
[35:06] » Yes, the one
guy. It's a
[35:09] » It's a
[35:14] Yeah. This is a
>> maple and wood.
[35:18] » Yeah.
>> Yeah.
[35:21] » Oh, no. This
>> is That's not it.
[35:24] » No.
>> Okay.
[35:27] » Yeah. This is This is the other one
where we got
[35:31] the gold.
>> What's this one? Yeah.
[35:42] This is it
>> right here.
[35:44] » That's the maplewood one.
>> Correct.
[35:46] » It's Maple and Maple Wood Road,
>> right?
[35:49] » Right by North Creek.
>> So it's it's a cost share project, you
[35:57] know,
but the proposal that was initially sent
[36:02] was like 47,000. This is a the amount of
the funding is 45,675
[36:10] that they'll go up to. But hey, the
45,000 we didn't have we have to. So I
[36:18] pretty happy about that 47,
>> right? And some of it is a question on
[36:26] there was an option kind of to put a
little bit of rip wrap on the end side
[36:30] of that thing. And to me, with these big
storms we've been getting, I think that
[36:35] that's, you know, that was a couple
thousand more or whatever, I almost
[36:40] think it's a good idea to be honest with
you
[36:44] cuz that water is, it's just crazy, but
you know, there water can do
[36:51] » how much damage that stuff does. It is
just
[36:54] » look at Indiana right now.
>> Unbelievable.
[36:57] » Hawaii.
[37:00] » Yeah. Please.
>> All right.
[37:05] Okay. Payment of bills. We all looked
everything over.
[37:10] » Um
we looked it over and there's a $29.75
[37:16] credit card.
>> Yes. Correct.
[37:18] » $2055.
Yep.
[37:20] » 255.
>> Yep. Yeah. 555.
[37:23] » Okay. A motion to pay the bills. Second.
>> All right. I have a motion from Lar uh
[37:29] Lauren to pay the bills for the second
from David based on what was presented
[37:34] plus the credit card. All in favor?
>> I opposed. Hearing none that carried. Uh
[37:42] discussion and items intended for future
meeting.
[37:47] » We'll put the the road
>> correct
[37:50] » the name of it. It is going to be the
role that they sent us to.
[38:00] » Yeah. And um they're looking at calling
in
[38:06] look at the name here.
[38:12] » Given a name here, but it is a Cedar
>> Cedar
[38:16] » Cedar Lake Road.
So, where this is, did you guys
[38:21] get an idea of where this is in your
minds? Do you see this on the survey
[38:25] map?
>> I was looking I thought it was over by
[38:29] » this is on Sleepy Hollow.
>> Yes. Problems. Okay.
[38:36] So,
I needed more time to look at that than
[38:40] uh
[38:44] » that's exactly what they were told. And
then in October we should probably have
[38:48] a budget meeting. So we want that like
after our regular October meeting
[38:56] but we do.
>> Yeah.
[38:57] » So okay. So then we'll have October
meeting and then we'll have the budget
[39:00] meeting right after.
>> Okay.
[39:03] » Yeah. So that's
>> and if anybody more than
[39:08] one board member wants to come to the
mayor.
[39:12] » When is that again?
>> The 23rd.
[39:14] » September. that I be posted.
>> What time did you say?
[39:18] » 7 a.m.
[39:22] » So
>> I just

[39:34] » two days after.
[39:38] » Okay.
[39:41] » All right.
So, our next town board meeting is
[39:45] September 21st, 2026 at 6:30 p.m. Then
we're going to have our budget meeting
[39:50] after that.
>> No, we're going to have it in October.

>> Yeah, just a budget.
[40:01] » Then in November, we

[40:09] transportation.
All right.
[40:13] So I am looking for an adjournment.
>> I will move to adjourn. Second. Have a
[40:21] motion made by David to adjourn the
meeting and a second by Lauren. All in
[40:25] favor? I. All oppose.
