1 00:00:11,759 --> 00:00:18,080 all right we're back in session and i just wanted to um make a 2 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:22,560 statement that we had a little bit of technical difficulties after our 3 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,560 uh executive session and we came back and 4 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:28,240 um the election was taken and then we went broke for lunch so we're back in 5 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:32,079 session now and uh mr trump mr dean we're ready you 6 00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:38,480 ready yep um 7 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,640 we got bread in here to basically see our best 8 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:44,559 advising board where he's at on development and designing the plans for 9 00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:48,719 the courthouse security building and i sent 10 00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:52,399 those i guess the latest set of plans uh in 11 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,600 for you guys to look at 12 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:04,320 and i guess what sheet is this this is a2 a2 13 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,680 on sheet a2 it kind of shows how the traffic flow is going to go through the 14 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,119 proposed new building uh to the west side of the courthouse 15 00:01:10,479 --> 00:01:15,840 for people coming into the into the building would 16 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:19,920 go to the left and then proceed down a hallway to the north 17 00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:23,280 then around the corner and there when they round the corner there's going to 18 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,280 be an x-ray machine and a metal detector and if somebody comes in the building 19 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,720 and say they have a cell phone on them or a pocket 20 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:33,119 knife they'll be asked to leave and that's that doorway to the straight 21 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:38,159 up to the north end doorway b uh they'll be asked to leave exit out of 22 00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:41,680 that door there to go back around to go to their car or home or wherever 23 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,159 to uh return that item that they're not 24 00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:46,880 allowed in with and they're gonna have to re-enter the building the way they 25 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:51,119 came in to begin with um then once they proceed through the 26 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:55,520 security area you kind of see they'll go through 27 00:01:52,479 --> 00:02:04,079 doorway d and then proceed east into the main building of the courthouse 28 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:07,439 um feel free to type in yeah exactly what he is saying once you get 29 00:02:05,759 --> 00:02:10,879 past doorway d you're you're accessible to the building there 30 00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:14,160 is another just down below that there's a door as 31 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:19,440 far as exiting out as well so we'll have locking mechanism 32 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:25,599 so you can't get back into d and c would be your egress area 33 00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:28,000 so we're trying to keep minimize the pedestrians as they come into the 34 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:32,560 building they will go left and right loop around 35 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:36,800 and exiting the building they come from the right so we're not crossing over 36 00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:40,720 pedestrian traffic that's the one thing we don't want to do 37 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:43,920 the other if you notice the walls that are in there the interiors those those 38 00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:50,800 are glass so they're visible so that way anybody 39 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:54,400 a security and pedestrians you can see see both sides of the wall so you can 40 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,920 see what's going on it's just not you know 41 00:02:54,959 --> 00:03:03,920 we didn't want blind corners and so kept that as open as we could 42 00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:07,680 coming into the building now as you everybody knows 43 00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:07,680 that's um 44 00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:15,680 it doesn't uh it's not code compliant with the height of that door 45 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:20,959 so we still even though we are adding this in here 46 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:24,959 we're still doing some work to that and that's to raise the height of that 47 00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:29,120 lentil in there we have worked with the historical 48 00:03:26,239 --> 00:03:32,400 and have some verbal approval from them to do this 49 00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:38,400 as well as the attachment of this building we're minimizing 50 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:44,640 the historical attachment and disruption of the courthouse so we pretty much had 51 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:49,920 a verbal green light to go ahead on with moodiness i was just going to ask 52 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:54,879 what it's going to look like outside um is it going to be stone like the 53 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:59,439 courthouse too that's what i thought it does have a stone veneer 54 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:03,040 we are taking elements of the courthouse bringing it into this building so we 55 00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:06,720 have a large one a small one here a little bit 56 00:04:04,959 --> 00:04:13,360 of balance in there i don't know if you've seen 57 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:16,720 if we look real quick on is it yeah if you look at a3 58 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,680 yeah i saw that okay yeah i like the way it's designed i just didn't know what 59 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:26,960 the outside was going to be that that's what we're doing okay so it 60 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:30,800 takes into consideration that and if you notice 61 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:34,960 there is some height to this and some of it has to do with proportions of 62 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:39,120 the building and it also has to do with that secondary exit from the first 63 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:45,199 floor as you come out we didn't want to 64 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:48,000 uh so if you're looking at that uh elevation it's called south elevation 65 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:52,080 here you have stairs that's to the right of 66 00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:55,199 it and with the landing the exterior landing 67 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,360 and with that we needed to make sure that we had the height of this building 68 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,560 up so you're not staring at the roof and we 69 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,800 don't have people trying to jump up there 70 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:07,199 as well so and then also we are taking care of that landing which is in dire 71 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,720 need of repair so we don't have leaks coming 72 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:16,960 in so we're looking at resurfacing 73 00:05:14,639 --> 00:05:22,840 preparing prepping and resurfacing the exterior as well as the interior 74 00:05:19,759 --> 00:05:27,440 so that's also on the agenda with these drones 75 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:31,120 i think the main thing when you go back to the 76 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:35,039 floor plan with the functionality of this building 77 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:38,160 is the openness of it and the progression 78 00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:42,000 that they take to get into it and that also 79 00:05:39,039 --> 00:05:44,800 uh has to go with the exterior and that introduction to that little plaza out 80 00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:48,160 front which they're going to want to space out 81 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:53,440 there let's create some space for them that uh minimize 82 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,479 we're not talking putting terrazzo or anything like that 83 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,919 on the on the ground we're we're looking at 84 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:03,600 concrete you know and by creating a nice plaza nice 85 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:07,440 entryway for them and they can get a gathering before they 86 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:14,000 go into the building as well also um coming in on from the same 87 00:06:11,199 --> 00:06:16,720 general area where it is now now it's kind of a funnel with that little 88 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:20,160 walkway system in there we would open it up a little 89 00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:24,319 bit however uh we are proposing bollards in there 90 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:28,080 removable bollards so that way vehicles won't come in we 91 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:32,720 can stage them off um for security but we also have it for 92 00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:37,360 maintenance maintenance was a big thing so uh you can get it onto the 93 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:42,240 lawn and mow and do some things as we're grading this 94 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:47,199 out and for the proper slopes so get in and 95 00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:50,479 the other thing is secured all the way around this building is what we're 96 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:54,160 looking at and that that comes into play with the landscaping as well 97 00:06:52,319 --> 00:07:03,840 getting rid of some of the shrubs low vegetation 98 00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:03,840 in there so people can't hike 99 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:16,560 yes yeah because currently the only good mower on the south lawn is to put wooden 100 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,440 planks on the steps and try to get the motors up there 101 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:23,280 and even if we have to dig up a sewer line or a water line up front 102 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:28,080 we can't get a piece of equipment up there so there's no way to access it but 103 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,080 this will change 104 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,840 yes 105 00:07:35,039 --> 00:07:40,720 he's still preparing the plans so it's he's 106 00:07:38,479 --> 00:07:43,840 he's getting closer to sending it out to bid 107 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:47,360 but he's he's to basically list everything in the bit packet toward 108 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,720 those line items so we can kind of i don't say pick and choose what we want 109 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:54,479 to go with but so will water and sewer be ripped out of 110 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:59,039 this are you not cleaning such in in this new 111 00:07:58,479 --> 00:08:03,440 addition yeah they're they're the only water that 112 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:07,680 would be in it would be overhead spring right yes yes so there's there's no 113 00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:11,280 restrooms in this this new addition there's there's 114 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:15,919 nothing the reason i was this is because the arp 115 00:08:12,879 --> 00:08:21,039 funds like that it covers part of the supercell okay now as far as 116 00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:25,759 i don't have civil on me we're looking at the civil in there 117 00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:30,319 and designing around any utilities and so forth in 118 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:35,839 there however this is old there's going to be ghosts 119 00:08:33,680 --> 00:08:39,039 we don't know what they are yeah so yeah you're going to have to break 120 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:44,640 we know we know there's some lines with that we don't know the exact 121 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,640 and whether we can find them or not 122 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:52,000 so when do you think we can um because you know i 123 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:55,120 i expressed you for the meeting about the cost of construction 124 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:02,720 sounds long and it's not long but we could prepping these have them ready in 125 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:06,240 a month and with that because i want to be able 126 00:09:05,279 --> 00:09:12,320 to make sure working closely here with our limelight 127 00:09:09,839 --> 00:09:17,360 what do we want and as far as our line on it 128 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:22,399 you have some options and that way working with the 129 00:09:19,839 --> 00:09:25,200 excuse me engineers finish up in accordance with that and then once you 130 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:33,120 do that you've got a couple weeks of bid process 131 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:37,839 advertisement to bid that would take uh a good three weeks because there's an 132 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:43,279 extension box in there so estimate three weeks and then 133 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:48,560 then you go from there then we'll have an opportunity to review 134 00:09:45,279 --> 00:09:53,120 the bids from that so you're looking at two months uh two 135 00:09:51,680 --> 00:09:56,880 minutes wants to get the big bags immediately 136 00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:05,120 yeah that's this one so when you you 137 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,120 bring the gloves in propane like 138 00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:19,839 looks good 139 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:32,959 and get take care of some of the other issues that need to especially those 140 00:10:28,959 --> 00:10:32,959 those stairways are in dire need 141 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:53,839 well you had uh randy with paul volley look at the structural 142 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,880 of those and and structurally they're they're fine 143 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,399 they're okay yeah i think it's just gonna be uh what 144 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,600 sandblasted and painted yeah you're gonna have to do it and use 145 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:08,399 it try to do the best job we can get them to sandblasted paint you 146 00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:13,040 know proper proper prepping and uh undercoats and so 147 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:18,480 forth so yeah preventive yeah otherwise 148 00:11:16,079 --> 00:11:24,320 structurally they were sound so the colors was cost prohibitive take 149 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,320 them away with something else 150 00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:37,360 so now at one point we talked about well this is being built an entrance 151 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,360 through the south poles 152 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:44,720 we haven't rectified it with any lifts or anything at this point 153 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:49,440 we've as far as services and bells has been discussed and how 154 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:52,079 somebody comes in can can we do a belt can we do something 155 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:57,040 so we can go out and provide that service versus the maximum that's 156 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,040 bringing them in that 157 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:13,920 we'll try and work with the contractor minimize as much as we can 158 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:18,880 yeah and we'd have to coordinate through nikki davenport so 159 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:22,240 um you know if if we can't find a viable option for 160 00:12:19,519 --> 00:12:24,959 ada access the only other option i could see 161 00:12:22,639 --> 00:12:27,200 would be have security take them around back and 162 00:12:25,839 --> 00:12:31,839 bring escort them through the north employee ada entrance and then 163 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:34,959 get them get them inside in the public area in terms of 164 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:38,880 so uh that'd be about the only way i could see them get 165 00:12:36,399 --> 00:12:41,600 getting access yeah because the most difficult 166 00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:45,680 thing on this whole situation is temporary yes can we get them 167 00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:48,880 linked up on the exterior then you got sets of stairs on the interior as well 168 00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:52,000 on that main floor it just makes it very difficult very 169 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:57,680 difficult to do without assistance 170 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,680 right 171 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:11,600 anything else that you guys have yeah i don't think so 172 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:13,839 thank you thank you good thank you 173 00:13:18,839 --> 00:13:23,760 appreciated no 174 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:35,839 yeah i guess after you get the changes made on those 175 00:13:32,079 --> 00:13:35,839 all right 176 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,839 thanks brett 177

courthouse i'll be sure to let 184 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:37,199 the commission know um next item i'm going to discuss would 185 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:41,199 be the kdot traffic engineering assistance program 186 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:45,839 the teep study that i had done for several 187 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,839 county roads 188 00:14:46,720 --> 00:15:00,720 basically speed limit studies um it should have been in the packet 189 00:14:53,839 --> 00:15:00,720 with the actual um completed study 190 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:10,079 and there's a lot of fluff in this study but 191 00:15:07,519 --> 00:15:14,160 basically on page 33 shows the preferred signing for 192 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:20,000 all the different zones one through five um like zone one is old highway 40. 193 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:24,560 and that to me that was the most critical one out of all five of these 194 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:29,120 was because it's it's unposted so it's 55 miles an hour with a 195 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:34,079 curve sign for the west or the eastbound traffic coming into 196 00:15:31,279 --> 00:15:39,440 coming into town uh with a 25 mile an hour speed 197 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,440 auxiliary plate underneath of it but um 198 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:45,920 but uh they recommended the preferred improvements anyways 199 00:15:43,519 --> 00:15:50,079 basically to post that 40 miles an hour and after the existing chevrons upgrade 200 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:55,040 turn warning signs and advisory speed limit plaques 201 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:58,959 and remove the deer crossing signs so um zone two and if you guys have any 202 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:03,040 questions as i'm going down through these 203 00:15:59,519 --> 00:16:08,880 please follow me zone two would be milford lake road near i-70 204 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:13,839 currently posted it's not posted so it's 55 miles an hour for 205 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:18,079 vehicles going over top of the overpass i-70 overpass and uh 206 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:23,839 the recommended install install the posted speedup size 45 mile an hour for 207 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,839 each approach 208 00:16:24,639 --> 00:16:30,880 zone number three would be milford lake road near liberty hall road 209 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:36,160 their recommendation is to remove the posted 40 mile an hour speed limit signs 210 00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:40,480 and speed limit head signs and basically revert it back to a 55 mile an hour 211 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:46,720 speed limit and zone four the old milford road 212 00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:46,720 they're us-77 213 00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:52,720 that one there basically for a short stretch change the posted speed limit 214 00:16:50,639 --> 00:16:58,800 from 30 to 35 so increase at five miles an hour um 215 00:16:55,759 --> 00:17:01,440 and that's basically east of the first residence or 216 00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:06,799 over there by the golf course from there east would be increased up to 35 miles 217 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:13,439 an hour from 30. then zone 5 would be hillside drive 218 00:17:10,559 --> 00:17:16,559 they recommended the install close to 35 miles an hour for 219 00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:23,600 southbound on northbound hillside drive traffic and install 220 00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:23,600 a winding road ahead sign the w15r 221 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:32,000 what is it it's not it's it's not if anything is not posted it's 222 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:37,039 55 mile an hour but they still have to drive at a reasonable proven speed 223 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:42,400 so we've had a resident after complaining about people speeding and 224 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:45,360 he'd like it to 25 but i told him they recommended 35 225 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:06,080 something like that but those were the recommendations for 226 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:15,840 these five different zones that i submitted the application for 227 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:15,840 and then back on that page 228 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:33,440 page four do you guys have the basically spreadsheets in there 229 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:38,480 showing how much the signs are anticipating being the cost of all 230 00:18:35,919 --> 00:18:38,480 the songs 231 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:45,440 towards the back yeah the they've got it broke down for the cost of all these 232 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:50,400 signs supposed to be installed and for the 233 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:53,600 their estimated cost was 13 107 um and i when i seen that i'm like that 234 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:58,480 is way high um so marshall went out and got 235 00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:03,840 three different quotes all the signs and which include the 236 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:11,840 posts and newman came in at 3493.45 237 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:18,480 and then national sign company came in at four thousand nine hundred and eighty 238 00:19:15,919 --> 00:19:22,480 dollars and twenty cents and then barco municipal products they 239 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:27,840 came in at five thousand eighty two dollars and forty cents 240 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:32,160 um but we have all of these signs in stock we'll 241 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:35,200 probably just have to order a few posts so 242 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,280 as far as out of money out of my budget to pay for all these signs we've already 243 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,559 got in stock and marshall fields we've got 244 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:44,320 an adequate supply so we don't have to reorder any at this 245 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:50,840 time so i would recommend to the to the board to 246 00:19:47,919 --> 00:19:54,160 approve of this traffic engineering assistance 247 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:58,799 speed limit studies for all five zones and for me to get the signs changed or 248 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,799 installed 249 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,000 absolutely 250 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:09,280 all right thank you that was uh harder than i thought it would be to 251 00:20:08,799 --> 00:20:15,039 change a speed limit well it's 252 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:18,640 you know without have i i guess thank you kdot for yes 253 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:23,520 thank you for doing this for me on their dime so that's 254 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:28,240 to me that's a very good uh program that they have 255 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:33,760 yes which i have submitted uh another application for two other 256 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:39,520 speed limit studies on one on river road and the other one for lions creek 257 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:43,679 west there's been some i don't say complaints but some concerns 258 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:46,559 that people like on lion strip west from 77 259 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:50,320 that first mile there's quite a few residents residences in there and 260 00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:53,520 there's some concern out there about people 261 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:56,880 going a little bit too fast for you know it's 55 262 00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:00,880 but they they weren't looked at so i'm like they don't hurt nothing to turn in 263 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:04,000 an application so i did so and with the new construction at the 264 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,880 high school there's some concerns out there on ritter road that 265 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:10,240 you know the speed limit now is posted 45 266 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,559 uh at least have an engineer look at it and get their assessment on what the 267 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:17,840 speed limit should be if it needs to be changed lower 268 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:25,200 and i did submit those applications to kdot on may 21st so 269 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:29,039 waiting on them and i know it all depends on 270 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:33,360 their funding uh for that program when it or if it gets selected so but 271 00:21:31,919 --> 00:21:37,120 i'll keep the board in the loop on my progress there 272 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:48,640 next item be the cloud county community college parking lot island island sealed 273 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:52,640 bids i again sent out bid packets to local 274 00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:57,600 contractors and the sealed bids we opened up here at 275 00:21:55,120 --> 00:22:00,480 my regular meeting on june 21st at 1 15. 276 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:07,200 and so far it's not looking good it there's a there's a 277 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:11,200 mandatory pre-bid meeting that they have to attend and i haven't got 278 00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:16,559 i haven't heard anybody that's reached out to me or dale 279 00:22:12,559 --> 00:22:16,559 uh to go out there and uh 280 00:22:16,799 --> 00:22:20,960 i've had one contractor call and they're just too busy so they're not gonna bid 281 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:25,039 it so still and we've called them and asked 282 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,480 them hey just to remind you this the deadline's coming up but i hope we 283 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:33,760 get some competitive bids in for it's not looking 284 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,760 too good 285 00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:42,480 next item um 286 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,280 discuss the uh 287 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:55,600 lines creek east bridge replacement project got a couple change orders 288 00:22:52,320 --> 00:23:00,080 had some additional dirt work to do back uh behind the abutments uh because the 289 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:04,400 original abutments you remember here my my last meeting said that they 290 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:07,919 had the developments were a lot larger than what was anticipated 291 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:11,440 well with that that those larger abutments there's a little void there so 292 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,240 there's additional calculations and quantities of dirt 293 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:18,640 filled dirt that wasn't calculated in for the contractor 294 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:22,159 so they do these change orders so we made a deal with them to where we'll 295 00:23:20,159 --> 00:23:27,120 supply the dirt we'll haul you the dirt and that will help that drop that cost 296 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:30,880 of that change over considerably but their first change order the cost 297 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,919 for that filter was two thousand uh six hundred seventy seven dollars and 298 00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:37,280 fifty cents and if we didn't supply that dirt we 299 00:23:36,159 --> 00:23:42,720 were probably looking anywhere from eight to ten thousand dollars 300 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:44,400 so uh we was able to to save save quite a bit of money there for getting them 301 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:49,600 some some good field dirt that passed uh call 302 00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:56,960 valley's inspections on their testing so it tested very high uh in compaction so 303 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:59,840 they were in which that has been done already 304 00:23:58,159 --> 00:24:03,120 and then the second change order would be for the piling 305 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:11,520 um basically the short explanation is the steel pile must be driven into 306 00:24:08,159 --> 00:24:17,919 computed design bearing depths and the basically the pile had been 307 00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:21,840 driven down further in order to get into the good bedrock 308 00:24:19,039 --> 00:24:24,559 so um you know what they they they did the 309 00:24:22,559 --> 00:24:29,120 geotech investigation as far as core drilling to see what was down there 310 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:32,400 um but upon findings they needed to add more piles so we we have another change 311 00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:37,520 order for the cost of additional piling and that 312 00:24:35,279 --> 00:24:40,159 cost was three thousand five hundred and four dollars 313 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,840 i'd recommend to approve both change orders 314 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:59,120 come over here we can change lawyer both 315 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:20,320 he's literally looking for the numbers to receive you'll be proud of it 316 00:25:17,039 --> 00:25:24,960 yeah but they're the same yeah um and i guess another i guess 317 00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:28,000 in the future here coming up for too long i'm gonna have change order number 318 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:32,880 three which is rip rap when again it's kind of like a domino 319 00:25:31,279 --> 00:25:34,720 effect the size of those abutments is going to affect this it's going to 320 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:40,080 affect that so the riprap is going to be placed on 321 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,000 in front of and down underneath the abutment and on the wings that's going 322 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,760 to change a little bit so we're going to have 323 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:49,279 additional rip wrap but we are supplying the rip rap 324 00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:52,320 from the rip rap that we're getting from fort riley we're going to be supplying 325 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:55,600 some of that rip wrap for that so the cost of materials is not going to be 326 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:59,360 there it's just the cost of the labor for the contractor to 327 00:25:57,120 --> 00:26:02,720 get everything put in uh and i'm anticipating it probably 328 00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:06,159 about the same cost as change order number one with the dirt 329 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,960 so uh again with us supplying the materials it just drops that cost 330 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:12,880 tremendously so and it's not just the materials but big 331 00:26:11,279 --> 00:26:16,880 shares the trucking and the hauling getting the materials on sites 332 00:26:15,120 --> 00:26:25,840 so just a heads up on change order number three 333 00:26:18,559 --> 00:26:25,840 thank you 334 00:26:27,120 --> 00:26:35,600 always um recycling facility well if anybody's 335 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:40,159 heard this yet but we sent out a public notice 336 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:44,240 last week um since you two are new and wasn't here for the co 337 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:48,240 the fun covet stuff um i got this little deal that i typed up but 338 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:53,120 basically it's a narrative on how we got to where we were and how we got back 339 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,520 so but due to the covet pandemic foreign closed the recycling facility on march 340 00:26:54,960 --> 00:27:01,200 16 2020 gary county in turn had to close 341 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:06,320 our facility to the public on march 16th um because we had nowhere to go with it 342 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:09,120 on may 18th for riley opened their facility back up with restrictions that 343 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,960 we must quarantine all of the recyclables for 344 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:16,799 seven days and the only way we could feasibly do 345 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:20,159 that is just have our operation open from monday through wednesday 346 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:25,200 and be closed thursday friday and do not have a recycling trailer out 347 00:27:22,159 --> 00:27:30,000 at the transfer station um but uh last week i emailed uh herbal 348 00:27:28,799 --> 00:27:33,600 with fort riley and in talking to him uh to where all 349 00:27:32,159 --> 00:27:37,840 their employees from what he told me they've been vaccinated 350 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:41,120 so he felt that we don't have to quarantine our 351 00:27:39,120 --> 00:27:45,520 recyclables anymore so that's why starting today we open back up to normal 352 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:48,559 operational hours for recycling so it's monday through friday and then 353 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,000 we'll also have the recycling trader out at 354 00:27:50,000 --> 00:28:03,840 the the transfer station like we did prior to cobid so 355 00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:14,240 and i got one more thing and i guess this is just for 356 00:28:09,039 --> 00:28:14,240 commissioner tyson and commissioner that 357 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:21,120 would like to get your approval to approach 358 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:24,559 uh i mean it's just it's just a signing i don't 359 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:29,039 think just to just to approach uh kevin and 360 00:28:27,360 --> 00:28:32,799 betty to get the construction temporary construction easement and the 361 00:28:31,039 --> 00:28:38,320 permanent drainage easement and the agreements signed by them 362 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:43,919 oh i've reviewed them and that was what we all agreed on and so yeah 363 00:28:40,799

00:29:38,559 we know that it shouldn't take you too long 378 00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:41,840 i wouldn't think so just need to call and coordinate 379 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:50,559 okay sounds good to me

everybody 382 00:29:59,039 --> 00:30:01,440 have it 383 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:09,039 that's all i had all right thanks i can dedicate your message 384 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:17,679 yeah i guess we'll find out tonight and is everybody all right from the accident 385 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:22,320 still yes ma'am are they sore i checked on 386 00:30:19,679 --> 00:30:25,440 dale oh he was a little bit scared but i just wanted to see him climb out 387 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:29,360 the top of the passenger side of that truck but 388 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:34,640 with that uh jeremy um took the pitman arm off that truck and 389 00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:38,159 you could see where and it had a castle nut on it and a castle nut has grooves 390 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:41,760 in the top side of the nut where a cotter pin goes and locks it in 391 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:45,520 when i was on scene looking up in there was dark i really couldn't see it 392 00:30:43,279 --> 00:30:49,120 i felt the threads but you really couldn't see what was going on 393 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:52,559 and on the other on the idler arm i believe that's on there with a lock nut 394 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:56,399 so i just assumed it was a lock nut that's why i stated that well 395 00:30:54,240 --> 00:31:00,000 in looking at the pitman arm it showed where that nut may have been loose 396 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:03,440 where the threads were just give away and then all of a sudden 397 00:31:01,679 --> 00:31:06,559 by looking at the cotter pin and i'm an old front end man from years ago when 398 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:10,960 the cotter pin didn't come out you just buzzed it off 399 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:13,600 the direction that cotter pin was shaved off was 400 00:31:11,679 --> 00:31:17,039 down on those sides that's telling me that that jar that 401 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:20,240 hitting that bridge coming off that bridge when he hit that 402 00:31:18,399 --> 00:31:24,480 it caused that nut to shoot off shear that cotter pin because the cotter pin 403 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:27,200 is sheared down so that's telling me the strain down 404 00:31:25,519 --> 00:31:32,720 and sheared that pin off and then they lost steering i'm glad that 405 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:35,120 thank you but on the flip side jeremy came in the office first thing this 406 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,480 morning he said on a real quick assessment we might be 407 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:42,240 looking at five to six hundred dollars to get stuck fixed 408 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:45,279 oh so it barely did any damage to the driver's side whatsoever and it was 409 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:49,919 that's what it didn't even break the mirror so 410 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:52,240 uh now granted the driver's side window was busted because they had a stand on 411 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:56,960 it to get out oh yeah but uh but all in all it sounds 412 00:31:55,200 --> 00:32:00,000 like we might not even put a claim into k camp so we'll just have to wait and 413 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:04,080 see he's supposed to give me up to date i when i was coming up here from a 414 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:09,039 meeting it was in there running so so we might have got really lucky on 415 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,039 that one yeah 416 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:15,840 but very fortunate everybody's okay that's the same thing 417 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:32,159 i'm staring at my first victim the signage yeah 418 00:32:38,799 --> 00:32:43,840 i'll give them to you so you can review okay 419 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:55,760 what's up

00:41:29,760 driving home and our friends caught a flat tire 10 minutes ahead of 449 00:41:28,240 --> 00:41:39,119 them in between i would say 450 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:45,760 about six miles yeah six miles if that away from the riley exit so 451 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:49,599 we caught up to them and i got out pulled all their stuff off the back 452 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:53,520 because they were on the baseball team with us 453 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:57,680 got the kids to the different vehicle and 454 00:41:53,920 --> 00:42:03,520 started changing changing the tire and got home around 11 04 last night so 455 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:07,520 oh you're tired i got speakers ain't crazy 456 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:21,680 so how many stitches you end up punching did he just slip and hit the edge or 457 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,680 something yeah 458 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:31,839 he's tough though all right 459 00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:45,839 so how old is he he's seven 460 00:43:11,119 --> 00:43:14,800 how's it going hello how are you sir 461 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:22,560 all right ready anytime 462 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:31,040 so let's see so let's just start with the most recent 463 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:34,240 news and then i'll let weight go through that 464 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:38,400 the paperwork left fair enough so you guys heard about the generator i'm sure 465 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:43,760 yeah we had generator fail when we tested it so 466 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:47,359 in essence to be safe you can't be without a backup generator you can't 467 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:50,560 do surgery there's just the routine stuff suction doesn't 468 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:54,800 work without electricity so a lot of patients need 469 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:58,640 those sort of thing so we opted to uh at the time we had the 470 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:02,720 information we had no backup generator available at 471 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:06,160 the time so we transferred some patients out kept the 472 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:08,880 er open because you don't want to ever close your er 473 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,760 and you work around whatever you have to because the emergencies could be 474 00:44:10,240 --> 00:44:16,079 dangerous uh so we transfer them out and right 475 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:20,319 after we made that decision we heard we there was a generator in 476 00:44:18,079 --> 00:44:22,880 wichita that we're able to get and then it's like okay we need to find a truck 477 00:44:21,839 --> 00:44:26,960 driver and somebody to wire it so we're looking 478 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:29,200 at a day to two days for all that to happen well 479 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,960 they made it happen overnight truck driver went picked up middle of night 480 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:36,240 dropped it off the electricians came during the night and hooked it up for us 481 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:43,839 so we got back to the business the next morning so we 482 00:44:40,319 --> 00:44:47,760 but we still have a generator issue so the problem with this when it's a 483 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:51,920 mitsubishi it's made in japan and it was outdated so they don't make 484 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:56,079 the parts anymore so they don't have any parts in japan they 485 00:44:54,160 --> 00:45:00,560 don't have any around here so we either have to rebuild this find 486 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:05,760 someone that can build a starter for these or buy a new one 487 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:08,160 jeff reached out to a couple places one place came back with a new generator 488 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:13,920 basically like a caterpillar type diesel generator 489 00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:17,200 is like 500 000 one of our board members asked about 490 00:45:15,599 --> 00:45:20,720 what about natural gas well those are like four or five times 491 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:24,480 that cost so i don't think that's an option but we 492 00:45:23,359 --> 00:45:28,000 still have the backup generator releasing for twenty thousand 493 00:45:26,319 --> 00:45:34,240 dollars a month so why did that go 494 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:39,680 when they bought it oh i don't know it's before frank early 2000's 495 00:45:36,079 --> 00:45:43,200 yeah i call it bf before frank so i don't know what what you know 496 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:47,359 sometimes you look at the cheapest thing you'll get or 497 00:45:44,240 --> 00:45:51,760 yeah yeah you do so um anyway so that's the generator issue 498 00:45:50,319 --> 00:45:56,000 so we're working through that the backups work and we tested it the 499 00:45:54,000 --> 00:46:00,079 fire marshal came someone complained that hey these guys 500 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:02,640 had a generator you should go check it out so he came and 501 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:05,359 he basically looked at everything and said you guys followed your procedure 502 00:46:04,319 --> 00:46:10,480 and you did the right thing complimented us for taking action for 503 00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:14,880 patient safety i'm glad it didn't take so long because 504 00:46:13,359 --> 00:46:22,079 we're thinking it's gonna be two days at the best at that point and 505 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:26,880 end up being about 24 hours appreciate it yeah so and to the 506 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:31,520 fire marshall bless this all we have some to send them back 507 00:46:29,359 --> 00:46:34,560 so that i think it's just an ongoing issue 508 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:37,680 the other issue we're working through and wade mentioned this at the last 509 00:46:36,319 --> 00:46:42,640 board meeting but i don't think every anybody understood what 510 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:47,520 the ramifications are we talked about pass-through payments 511 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:55,200 uh we we basically are a demonstration project hospital 512 00:46:51,119 --> 00:46:59,119 for inpatient medicare and swing beds we get cost-based reimbursement so you 513 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:03,760 guys heard that before we talked about that so the way they do 514 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:08,640 that the operational piece of that is medicare pays us so much money 515 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:12,800 uh a month like every two weeks we get a check for medicare and it's for this 516 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:17,040 cost-based reimbursement at the end of the year they 517 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:20,720 evaluate do an audit and say okay we didn't pay you enough we owe you 518 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:23,680 or we paid you too much you need to pay us and there's a settle up or true up 519 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:28,079 after the year and there's true i usually go drag on 520 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:30,480 for a couple two more audits to be sure and then it 521 00:47:28,720 --> 00:47:35,359 finally finishes like we just finished 18 and 21. 522 00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:38,880 so it's usually about three years so what has happened is 523 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:43,920 the demonstration project was renewed by congress and the president signed it 524 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:48,800 well somehow our payments were turned off 525 00:47:45,599 --> 00:47:52,960 and it's about 200 000 a month 180 200 000 a month it's about two 526 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:57,040 million dollars a year so we have reached out to the two 527 00:47:55,920 --> 00:48:04,319 seniors uh marshall and uh 528 00:48:01,119 --> 00:48:07,920 moran we've reached out to wps who's our mac administrator medicare 529 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:13,040 administrator who gave us a contact with cms and cms 530 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:17,040 has to turn it back on so we've alerted everyone that we need 531 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:21,200 this term back on because it was approved to go another five years 532 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:24,720 through 26. so we are waiting for that we even 533 00:48:23,359 --> 00:48:30,000 reached out to kha they have a person who's who's a 534 00:48:27,839 --> 00:48:33,839 liaison with cms we've reached out to everybody and said this is the situation 535 00:48:32,240 --> 00:48:36,400 so we've been working on that for the last week and a half two weeks of trying 536 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:40,079 to get that resolved but you know if you 537 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:43,920 take away two thousand dollars enough that's huge 538 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:51,920 for us who would barely you know paycheck to paycheck company 539 00:48:48,720 --> 00:48:57,200 it just started on 26th yeah may 26th so it just happened 540 00:48:54,240 --> 00:49:01,599 so we had only one now we think there may be a glitch 541 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:03,760 when it they renewed it and so where are we trying to figure out i reached out to 542 00:49:02,720 --> 00:49:09,280 other hospitals who were in the demonstration project which is about 543 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:12,559 30 in the country maybe a little less but the ones i've reached out to they 544 00:49:10,720 --> 00:49:16,800 didn't have any issues so we're trying to figure out why it 545 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:21,040 stopped get it turned back on so if you know any of the senators 546 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:25,599 representatives that are in congress congress has to reach out 547 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:28,720 to cms so we've reached out to them and i haven't heard back today 548 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:34,240 so that's what we've been working through and the holiday last week made 549 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:40,400 it a short week for them uh they finally got to us like thursday 550 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:44,400 friday what would you say um medicare services center for medicare 551 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:51,359 services uh basically all the medicare is 552 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:59,839 controlled by cms under dhhs department of health and human services 553 00:49:52,720 --> 00:49:59,839 at the you know the national 554 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:07,040 so those are the the hot points we've been working on 555 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:09,839 meanwhile we had a a year end so there was a lot of catch up and we don't go 556 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:12,880 through the financials we had a lot of catch up to do and 557 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:17,040 invoices need to be paid we ended up uh about a million dollars 558 00:50:15,359 --> 00:50:20,160 better this year than last year we generated more revenue than we did last 559 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:24,800 year so in the time of covet and although we had 560 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:27,200 decreases in clinic volume and er remember i share with you guys the 561 00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:32,079 volumes and how they were down um even with that 562 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:35,440 we still made more money than we did last year so the house 563 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:39,520 the way i look at it we were so bad and so lean 564 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:45,119 the only place to go was up so we generated more revenue 565 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:49,200 you know then we than the losses we had from that volume so i think that's a 566 00:50:46,720 --> 00:50:53,440 good thing part of that's the icu take care of the patients that payments 567 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:59,040 a little higher so that's kind of the way 568 00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:02,400 next time clinic started that's generate revenue 340b 569 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:06,240 uh but those things didn't get started until then really the one click may have 570 00:51:05,119 --> 00:51:10,800 had like a month the last quarter um i thought 340b had 571 00:51:09,359 --> 00:51:16,079 like the last quarter of some preliminary fun but those things are 572 00:51:12,720 --> 00:51:20,559 starting to look really good names any questions from me or any of that 573 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,559 stuff 574 00:51:20,839 --> 00:51:23,839 um 575 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:38,559 yeah i did send the information about our equipment needs as well as physical 576 00:51:37,359 --> 00:51:43,200 needs for the plant that we've we've given to you a number 577 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:49,760 of times but it's updated i sent it to was it deborah rebecca 578 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:54,000 yeah you got that okay just make sure yeah 579 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:59,040 and then um thank you yeah it's a way to go tv this is all 580 00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:07,040 this is all in the packet that he gave us but he made it easier for him 581 00:52:04,559 --> 00:52:10,480 so i've got the stable packet and the first page on that 582 00:52:08,240 --> 00:52:14,160 is the patient volumes and utilization statistics 583 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:17,280 and since we are at a year-end i'm just really going to focus on the current 584 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:19,440 versus the prior not really worry about the budget at this point because we're 585 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,640 really looking at two different years the other part of 586 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:26,960 this is not so much in the the volumes when we 587 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:30,400 get to the financial information still preliminary because there's we 588 00:52:28,559 --> 00:52:34,000 have our audit coming up at the end of the month and there will 589 00:52:32,079 --> 00:52:37,599 be some adjustments that will be presented with the uh that 590 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:43,520 will and will most likely improve it so 591 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:46,720 uh the highlighted areas you can see the acute admissions are 592 00:52:45,119 --> 00:52:51,359 on the top line there and if you compare that to prior years up a little bit 593 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:55,119 um so we did acute admissions are going to be those in 594 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:59,200 the medical surgery as well our medical surgical 595 00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:02,400 area as well as icu so those areas were up a little bit 596 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:07,040 uh surgeries you can see were down that was typical for a coveted year 597 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:10,480 particularly during the height of it probably last 598 00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:16,240 summer would have been the bigger areas when those surgeries would be down 599 00:53:13,119 --> 00:53:18,880 births uh we did um experience more births this year 600 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:23,680 again covered here and that's been kind of a nationwide trend 601 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:26,720 uh the lockdowns and such emergency visits 602 00:53:24,319 --> 00:53:31,200 uh emergency visits were down from last year about 8.2 603 00:53:28,079 --> 00:53:37,520 percent uh to give you a little bit of insight on emergency visits we do have 604 00:53:34,559 --> 00:53:40,480 our physicians are contracted and in that contract 605 00:53:40,839 --> 00:53:47,359 the higher the volume the cheaper our contract 606 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:50,880 is feels a little bit weird but because they're able to build for the 607 00:53:49,119 --> 00:53:54,800 uh their component so it reduces the amount so um 608 00:53:52,559 --> 00:53:58,480 the difference here which was about a thousand er visits 609 00:53:56,640 --> 00:54:03,599 cost us several hundred thousand more dollars in our contract 610 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:07,359 so uh just as a side note there uh outpatient diagnostic diagnostic 611 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,400 physics those were up you would think about 612 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:14,480 the laboratory and imaging in those sort of areas 613 00:54:11,359 --> 00:54:19,440 uh lab clearly was going to be up clinic visits those were down 18.5 this is 614 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:23,040 different from the rural health clinic visits 615 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:27,920 so the clinic visits would be the orthopedics in the surgery 616 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:31,119 uh which is structured differently for um 617 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:34,960 structured differently in the build a little differently so they were down but 618 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:38,960 the rural health clinics were also down by about two percent uh we did add dr 619 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:42,720 corey's practice in the month of april which did 620 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:49,599 improve it a little bit but um 621 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:54,640 so there's only one month in there next page wound care procedures didn't 622 00:54:52,640 --> 00:55:00,400 want to point that out you can see we've had 180 for the last 623 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,400 two months so 624 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:10,160 i'm going to push back to the page four it's going to say operating performance 625 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,160 summary 626 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:17,280 and um again focusing on the fiscal year to date you can see our gross patient 627 00:55:15,119 --> 00:55:21,920 revenues were 110 uh 110 million versus 96 of last year 628 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:25,920 but if you look into the details on that a little bit 629 00:55:24,079 --> 00:55:30,240 you can see the impact for our inpatient revenue uh it's up 30 almost 630 00:55:29,119 --> 00:55:36,319 31 percent now we did look at the admissions 631 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:40,240 that were up just slightly however we the patients that we had this year were 632 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:44,799 much more severe as you would expect with code so there would be sicker 633 00:55:42,319 --> 00:55:48,000 individuals and it would be longer stays more charges associated with that so 634 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:51,359 that drives the revenue up we did have more outpatient revenue 635 00:55:50,319 --> 00:55:55,520 as well again you have lab that was up in diagnostic 636 00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:59,680 areas uh total deductions we were up about 637 00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:04,799 16.8 percent that would be expected if your revenue was up uh tax 638 00:56:02,559 --> 00:56:09,680 subsidies in there our other revenue this is the area that will 639 00:56:07,599 --> 00:56:13,599 be scrutinized in our audit and everyone's would be 640 00:56:11,359 --> 00:56:18,880 uh it doesn't has our covenant-related dollars in it so you can see the 6.9 641 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:23,440 versus 2.3 now that's not everything we received 642 00:56:20,559 --> 00:56:26,880 we do track items that we potentially could pay back on our balance sheet so 643 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:32,559 these are the items that we uh have utilized and 644 00:56:30,240 --> 00:56:36,240 put into the uh the income side of things 645 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:41,599 so it is up a little bit on this side a net operating revenue of 40 646 00:56:37,839 --> 00:56:46,400 just 40 almost 40.5 million versus 33 up 22 but then again our expenses would 647 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:50,640 also be up and you could see 43 million uh for the year compared to 648 00:56:49,359 --> 00:56:54,720 37 last year the bottom line on that one the 4.3 649 00:56:53,119 --> 00:57:02,880 million is going to have a lot of uh coveted related uh dollars associated 650 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:05,920 with it so salaries and wages were up as well as our professional fees and 651 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:09,440 some areas there that were up as well the operating 652 00:57:08,799 --> 00:57:15,040 margin for the year on 3.1 versus just almost 653 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:18,960 4.1 last year so about a million as franklin 654 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:21,920 mentioned earlier um total net margin you can see that there and the ebitda or 655 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:27,599 the earnings before interest and depreciation amortization 656 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:33,920 was a negative 691 compared to 13 and 1 million 657 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:33,920 394 last year so some improvements there 658 00:57:34,559 --> 00:57:44,319 uh i'm going to dig back further in the report now it's going to be page 659 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:49,040 12. so much of this is statistics and or trends and things but we're going to go 660 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:54,319 all the way back to the balance sheet so that you can see what we have here 661 00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:58,480 in the highlighted area here is days cash on hand 662 00:57:55,680 --> 00:58:02,000 it's at 42 you can see that last year and we were at 70 minute 663 00:58:00,079 --> 00:58:06,640 last year and we were just getting those funds 664 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:10,240 we were a little bit higher last month as well so 665 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:14,079 there are some things that are impacting our cash flow one is the 666 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:20,319 uh going forward is the password payments the other one is 667 00:58:16,319 --> 00:58:24,640 uh and actually let's see now yeah let's go ahead and cover that 668 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:29,839 now this other sheet right here that i handed out as well um so you can see on 669 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:33,599 this and it starts with that medicare accelerated payments 670 00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:37,359 the intent that program was just to basically get cash into the 671 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:40,640 health care facilities and though they're advanced paying for services 672 00:58:39,839 --> 00:58:45,440 that would would were to come and then 673 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:48,559 at some point it was that we would have to pay those dollars back and you can 674 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:51,839 see that we've paid we're at the very early stages it 675 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:58,440 started in april uh 200 and almost 215 000 676 00:58:55,040 --> 00:59:03,119 so last month alone we had 140 000 that would be may so when you 677 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:06,000 start thinking about capacitor payments that we're not getting which is about 678 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:10,960 200 and then you have an additional 140 going and you can see 679 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:15,680 what that does to our cash flow so that's a little bit of a stress right 680 00:59:13,359 --> 00:59:20,319 now we do also have the sbea small business association for 681 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:23,520 givable loans also known as the payment protection program we did 682 00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:26,960 receive multiple funds in to the total of 6 683 00:59:26,319 --> 00:59:32,880 million we've applied for forgiveness for 684 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:36,400 all but two million is two million we are not ready to apply for that one yet 685 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:40,079 and we just haven't received the notification that that's been forgiven 686 00:59:38,079 --> 00:59:43,680 yet i know that smaller organizations churches and smaller businesses have 687 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:47,680 gotten those letters um so we just haven't therefore it's not 688 00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:52,559 in the revenue because we had don't have that letter uh 689 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:55,119 the cares act the provider leave funds we've received a significant amount here 690 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:59,359 now uh any excess in this is subject to 691 00:59:57,200 --> 01:00:02,319 payback so this is the area that we talk about 692 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:05,119 lost revenues and you can see that we have better revenues so that that 693 01:00:04,079 --> 01:00:10,400 doesn't really apply to us in too much 694 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:13,119 it does to some degree because there's other methods in what you can calculate 695 01:00:12,079 --> 01:00:19,680 that as well as expenses so the the 696 01:00:16,319 --> 01:00:24,000 supply expenses or the time um included in this we did include the roof 697 01:00:21,839 --> 01:00:28,880 but that's in a really gray area we may get denied on that one 698 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:34,000 so at this point we've recognized a number of dollars 699 01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:37,760 but uh there's still more work to be done on this we're 700 01:00:35,119 --> 01:00:43,839 we're going through additional areas and items that we've already expended to see 701 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:48,240 okay can we justify or find an argument to where we can 702 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:53,760 uh keep some of those dollars so that's one area we do have some other 703 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:57,359 grants in here as well that we were able to utilize 704 01:00:55,280 --> 01:01:02,640 the payroll tax deferral that's another program that basically 705 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:05,760 we didn't have to pay our we calculated but we didn't have to pay our payroll 706 01:01:04,319 --> 01:01:09,520 taxes for our time uh we just got notification i think in 707 01:01:07,839 --> 01:01:14,400 the last two weeks that we will end up paying all the employees 708 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:18,720 portion as well as half of the employers portion by the end of this year 709 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:22,799 and then the remaining employer portion by the end of next year 710 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:25,839 sparks grants that went to operations and then we have a couple of other 711 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:30,880 smaller items here that are also subject to uh payback but where 712 01:01:28,799 --> 01:01:35,280 this is kind of a work in progress i know with the cares act um there is a 713 01:01:34,319 --> 01:01:42,000 timing issue on that and uh 714 01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:45,359 we're hoping for that to get pushed back but the cares act funds 715 01:01:43,599 --> 01:01:49,920 are supposed to be expended by the end of this by the end of june 716 01:01:47,599 --> 01:01:53,119 so they would have to be fully expended uh at that point 717 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:55,839 there is some discussion whether or not that's going to get moved back to the 718 01:01:54,319 --> 01:02:00,319 end of the year we don't know so we're just preparing for 719 01:01:57,039 --> 01:02:03,839 that coming up as well so when we were looking at the 720 01:02:01,119 --> 01:02:09,200 um balance sheet we had about six million dollars in cash so 721 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:15,920 it's really to our benefit if we can protect as much of that going back 722 01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:20,880 but that's still subject to how cms or medicare 723 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:24,559 views our justification and with the cares that sponge you guys 724 01:02:23,039 --> 01:02:32,400 can't use that money towards uh the generator 725 01:02:29,359 --> 01:02:34,880 well you can always apply for it but it's gonna 726 01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:39,920 it would be a really great area because the intent of that was for 727 01:02:37,039 --> 01:02:43,839 items that are directly covered related so to speak 728 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:46,319 so the fact that the generators started and 729 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:49,680 that wasn't because of code that was a routine operational thing that we've 730 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:54,000 been doing or we should be doing every week for 731 01:02:51,839 --> 01:02:59,039 years that's something we test those generators that's not i mean 732 01:02:57,039 --> 01:03:03,039 if we don't have it we can't treat a patient i understand that but it's not 733 01:03:01,039 --> 01:03:10,799 really my guess is cms would deny it but 734 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:14,640 who knows we can always try have you looked at the guidelines for 735 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:18,799 the american rescue monies the way i look at 736 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:23,440 it i think that we can use that money towards maintenance of the hospital 737 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:27,520 yeah it appears so yeah i've looked at it a few times and it's 738 01:03:26,079 --> 01:03:30,799 there's a lot more gray than the previous yes so 739 01:03:42,319 --> 01:03:50,319 i feel like you got you overhead you guys never put your 740 01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:57,440 lights off never like you never stop operating 741 01:03:53,839 --> 01:04:04,160 and so i just you see that specifically it's weird 742 01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:07,440 sorry i know i feel the same way it's a head stretcher yeah yeah other 743 01:04:06,559 --> 01:04:12,319 things we bought ventilators and oxygen stuff that's all 744 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:18,960 direct and we can apply that loss of any revenues time 745 01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:25,200 put in place to get ready prepare and test and lab and all that stuff 746 01:04:21,039 --> 01:04:29,359 applies and yeah we could spend it and pay for the roof and pay for a 747 01:04:27,359 --> 01:04:32,400 generator and then apply it and it may or may not then you may have to 748 01:04:31,599 --> 01:04:37,359 pay it back in at the end so was it judicial to do that 749 01:04:35,039 --> 01:04:40,960 or not that's how long does that take time you could not 750 01:04:55,839 --> 01:05:02,079 so the portal's not even open yet so they haven't 751 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:05,200 built it so that's part of why we're hoping that the 752 01:05:03,039 --> 01:05:07,200 the expense of the funds can be pushed back as well so we don't even know what 753 01:05:06,799 --> 01:05:10,960 the questions are going to be at this point 754 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:17,119 so but that's kind of routine with 755 01:05:14,319 --> 01:05:20,400 um cms to some degree oftentimes they'll set deadlines and they'll get moved back 756 01:05:18,559 --> 01:05:24,480 until they finally get it where it's to put out what we 757 01:05:22,799 --> 01:05:29,200 call a final rule and then when that comes out then that's 758 01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:29,200 the the bottom line 759 01:05:31,119 --> 01:05:40,640 don't ask me that question no it's okay yeah and wait can you 760 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:44,960 because i knew i couldn't explain it but i i did 761 01:05:41,599 --> 01:05:50,960 talk to them about um we had mentioned at the meeting about 762 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:55,280 refinancing the bond and right so the the there were some issues 763 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:58,799 actually i think that's something that's with me okay i thought you said that 764 01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:05,359 little notebook so we um we uh did have another 765 01:06:03,599 --> 01:06:07,599 conversation let me just find this real quick 766 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:24,000 there we go with uh kevin uh so there there was some some issues or 767 01:06:22,079 --> 01:06:29,119 some thought processes with um that at least that's what we were 768 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:33,359 looking for was what options were there um i know what 769 01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:37,119 the larger county option there's a timing as well 770 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:44,880 as a taxability issue there there's 771 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:48,079 there's a call ability and i don't think they're in the uh 772 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:51,599 they're in the window yet they're not callable yet 773 01:06:49,359 --> 01:06:55,760 uh and so if we were to if something was to be done now then it would be 774 01:06:53,039 --> 01:07:00,480 it would change the taxability for it so uh there may be if there's a tax law 775 01:06:57,839 --> 01:07:05,599 change or something like that that could make it more viable uh but 776 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:09,760 these it's kind of a back burner item um some refining so there's some things 777 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:15,760 that we could do potentially for the facility expenses you can kind 778 01:07:14,079 --> 01:07:20,000 of say okay well how much do we spend and 779 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:24,160 re and issue a new one um the other parts with those public funds 780 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:28,000 is before capital improvements that's kind of what that was 781 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:32,720 uh there would be an amendment for the supplemental lease 782 01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:36,799 there's a bond issue and for there's also a number of 783 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:41,359 registered voters that have to be part of a vote to 784 01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:44,559 um once it's been in the intent has been published and there's a 30-day protest 785 01:07:43,039 --> 01:07:49,280 period and then you need five percent registered voters 786 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:53,039 um you could put together a new resolution 787 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:57,760 that's a 60-day protest and then the lesser of two percent of voters are 100 788 01:07:54,880 --> 01:08:05,039 electors so there was he was really looking not so much at the 789 01:08:01,039 --> 01:08:05,039 bigger bond in those on that front so 790 01:08:07,039 --> 01:08:13,839 the bottom line i had he said it really would be ready to even look at that 791 01:08:10,319 --> 01:08:17,120 like 20 27 okay from the timing standpoint 792 01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:21,520 and then he did look at the smaller bonds that we have he said 793 01:08:19,279 --> 01:08:24,000 not refinance but refinancing a payment or moving one payment like the next 794 01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:29,279 payment to the end of the cycle there's process to do that 795 01:08:26,799 --> 01:08:33,679 if that's what you choose to do are you good it's like about two hundred 796 01:08:31,440 --> 01:08:38,960 and fifty thousand dollars that's it yeah 797 01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:43,199 it moves the principal payment yeah yeah just keeps and then 798 01:08:40,239 --> 01:08:46,239 and there's some tax pieces to that so then you'd be taxable 799 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:54,640 it didn't seem it didn't feel like it was worth it to do that 800 01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:57,600 piece of it unless we got to where there was no other options 801 01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:12,799 well it's starting it's been picking up um 802 01:09:10,480 --> 01:09:17,279 the last month the volume is a little bit better 803 01:09:14,159 --> 01:09:22,000 clinic volumes uh seem to have picked up what we added dr corey so it's we 804 01:09:19,839 --> 01:09:25,359 watched the trend so i know next month when we finish out june i would love to 805 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:29,440 see if the clinton volumes have actually picked 806 01:09:27,440 --> 01:09:34,159 up my provider that's how i tell but er's 807 01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:39,679 been a little bit busier so that feels like kind of back to normal 808 01:09:36,159 --> 01:09:42,880 last month and end of may we had around a little bit over a thousand page visits 809 01:09:41,679 --> 01:09:46,960 which is the first time we broke a thousand like 810 01:09:43,839 --> 01:09:50,719 seven or eight months so that's coming back 811 01:09:47,759 --> 01:09:55,520 alpha care we're extending hours that'll be coming up 812 01:09:51,440 --> 01:10:00,640 shortly to coincide with the urgent care that's coming so we'll have 813 01:09:57,440 --> 01:10:00,640 those extended hours 814 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:08,000 we did um also challenge that electric bill i think i 815 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:12,480 told you guys it was like uh 30. again excuse me guess bill 816 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:16,159 130 000. so um we did challenge that heard of a payment 817 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:20,159 to satisfy and we'll we're still working 818 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:25,600 through that to make sure that that's going to work so hopefully that'll be a 819 01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:29,440 positive you don't have to spend as much yeah i think it's a bunch of individuals 820 01:10:27,679 --> 01:10:33,440 and other entities going challenging their their 821 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:37,760 bills so yeah the biggest thing i could say 822 01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:42,560 about if you look at last year we had about the same amount of 823 01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:45,840 inpatient visits in patient days but we generated a lot more revenue 824 01:10:44,159 --> 01:10:49,360 because they were sicker i feel like i think we call the case mix index and 825 01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:53,440 that was all the cope with patients that we had we're taking care of 826 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:58,640 i think we had about 80 of them maybe a little bit more now 827 01:10:54,800 --> 01:11:02,080 uh 90 patients that we took care of so that that helped generate the revenue 828 01:11:00,719 --> 01:11:06,480 and that was the icu and having all those services available 829 01:11:07,440 --> 01:11:13,280 did you bring your um list of accomplishments oh 830 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:15,679 gosh no i didn't know well i didn't bring it to them 831 01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:18,719 you know because you want me to tell you we're gonna do it so i'll bring it to my 832 01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:21,920 monday then okay all right let's see what i think 833 01:11:20,480 --> 01:11:26,159 about well wound care yeah that's 180 visits 340b generating 834 01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:32,000 revenue we were a leap frog safety 835 01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:36,880 grade a only one in the region then you got to go to kansas city to get another 836 01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:40,000 grade a the second year in a row that's hard 837 01:11:37,440 --> 01:11:43,840 yeah that's awesome quality scores improve our patient satisfaction went 838 01:11:41,679 --> 01:11:47,600 from a three star to a four star so patients are satisfied at the 839 01:11:45,440 --> 01:11:50,960 hospital um so those are just some of the highlights 840 01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:54,560 the revenue i think you know just the morale seems a 841 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:57,760 lot better what i hear because i only know some when i was here yeah 842 01:11:56,640 --> 01:12:01,600 prior years it seems like it's better yeah you 843 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:07,040 have walked the halls so it's way better that seems better 844 01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:11,440 we added an intensivist that really made and we had a tele neurology and psych 845 01:12:09,199 --> 01:12:14,800 which is starting to really take off now nice so those things are are moving 846 01:12:14,159 --> 01:12:19,040 along we're added several contracts to trying 847 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:22,880 to make it more like a regular hospital this hospital is like 848 01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:26,560 stuck about 20 years ago that's the way it was operating and 849 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:30,560 we're trying to get it up to speed uh we still have a paper chart in the 850 01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:34,640 clinics we need to get rid of to get to an electronic system 851 01:12:32,480 --> 01:12:38,480 so we're working through those issues we've got a lot going on and 852 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:41,520 our business plan i can present maybe next time the small 853 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:44,719 highlighted version just so you can see it's basically about driving and 854 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:48,480 building more revenue because that's what you need 855 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:51,840 yeah i know you and i talked about doing some town halls 856 01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:55,040 probably wait till yeah let me present that to you and see what you think if we 857 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:58,960 need to tweak and add and um that's the strategy is to grow 858 01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:03,120 revenue yeah i can tell you frank from the 859 01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:08,320 outside
