1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,740

the holy spirit is already passed and
the town is going to pass and it's in

11
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:57,320
reference to uh
the land Hills Bridge

repair

15
00:01:14,119 --> 00:01:17,119
account

16
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:27,900
all right
so the most Superior human atmosphere

17
00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:33,720
next we have IMS
Mr Harper is here with us from IMS uh

18
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:38,820
we're going to pass a resolution for the
airport project but first he has a CIP

19
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:42,780
uh for the next five years the capital
Improvement plan for the next five years

20
00:01:40,380 --> 00:01:48,720
this time yes ma'am Mr Harper from Miami
please stand and you can come face us

21
00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:56,700
all right I'll just give review okay
um the telephone has to submit the CLP

22
00:01:52,799 --> 00:02:03,960
to FAA every year to maintain their
eligibility for Grant from both the LA

23
00:02:00,180 --> 00:02:10,200
dodt team okay and so this year we've
actually have a program with several

24
00:02:07,020 --> 00:02:16,200
projects for 2014 we're talking about
rehabilitating uh runaway pavement tax

25
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:22,580
repavement paper and pavement which is
uh you have an available entitlement of

26
00:02:18,860 --> 00:02:29,099
six hundred thousand dollars the uh
ledotd is talking about getting in

27
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:34,920
another 120 000 and when interesting in
front of this is that if we go ahead and

28
00:02:31,140 --> 00:02:39,300
design this now it's an extra possibly
four hundred thousand dollars that the

29
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:44,780
FAA is thinking about getting in so
we're really highly motivated particular

30
00:02:42,019 --> 00:02:51,720
you see an additional 400.
how much already uh 607 it works at the

31
00:02:48,540 --> 00:02:55,080
uh 700 and uh eighty seven thousand
dollars

32
00:02:52,620 --> 00:03:00,660
so we've been busy trying to shake the
tree for that in 2015 we're talking

33
00:02:57,660 --> 00:03:08,160
about doing RSA improvements which is
our runaway safety area improvements to

34
00:03:04,019 --> 00:03:14,400
put the airport 2016 we're working on
prohibit defense and Mexican inspecting

35
00:03:10,739 --> 00:03:21,840
those improvements that we designed 2017
we're doing a Airport layout plan 2018

36
00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:28,560
we are designing parallel taxiways and
we've got carriers so total for the

37
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:33,300
specificity for the program through the
2018

38
00:03:30,420 --> 00:03:41,340
is 3 million two hundred sixteen
thousand dollars will change

39
00:03:36,319 --> 00:03:46,379
for the next five years so a great fun
you are the resolution so that you we

40
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:51,440
can actually submit this to the FAA so
we can be in line to make sure and

41
00:03:49,019 --> 00:03:59,340
that's three point tomatoes and there's
3.2 3 million 216 000

42
00:03:55,159 --> 00:04:05,340
750. over the next five years so that's
an awesome place for that boy may I say

43
00:04:01,260 --> 00:04:09,080
the airport is looking great right now I
feel just a matter of fact you'll you

44
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:13,519
just completed the construction survey
and uh so that we can exit that project

45
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:18,180
a new way
that was part of that uh

46
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:21,180
great announcements to me to do the
newspaper about that particular event

47
00:04:20,100 --> 00:04:25,740
yes
okay any questions about the airport

48
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:30,000
Grant or the money or the funding that
we have gotten the truth all the things

49
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:34,380
that was in the way that's going to do
you know obstruction obstruction that

50
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:38,639
we've accidentally survey to identify
all the trees that need to come down and

51
00:04:37,380 --> 00:04:42,020
we're getting ready to do that project
to remove those trees system

52
00:04:48,380 --> 00:04:56,460
we have business to the airport about a
year or two ago that actually flew in

53
00:04:53,880 --> 00:05:01,560
for a granting and they were stating how
nice and well improved the airport is so

54
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:04,919
we like to give credit or credits we
thank you for the good work you know how

55
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:11,360
many times the way across the woman
Jenkins

56
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:11,360
okay so this time we have a resolution

57
00:05:15,479 --> 00:05:23,160
number
13-014 resolution for the town of Homer

58
00:05:20,340 --> 00:05:26,699

62
00:05:37,259 --> 00:05:44,900
use of aircraft it would be additional
for the seat to make it to ensure the

63
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:49,740
CIP plan will be
implement

64
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:53,960
at a price of 0.3.2 million dollars over
the next five years this time I will

65
00:05:51,539 --> 00:05:59,880
entertain a motion for a resolution
13-014 I will make the most motion made

66
00:05:57,060 --> 00:06:04,139
by councilman second five second second
night

67
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:08,460
uh Jake is all in favor state by saying
aye

68
00:06:05,100 --> 00:06:11,600
any opposed so the motion carries thank
you so much Mr Harper

69
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:20,479
next we have the Verizon water tower
release agreement

70
00:06:21,539 --> 00:06:25,100
which one of y'all want to take over

71
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,120
there

72
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:40,139
with regards to the water tower at the
current time I believe that we do have a

73
00:06:38,699 --> 00:06:44,220
temporary agreement in place there's
still some issues about

74
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:48,419
contractual liability that we're still
working on to hammer out a long-term

75
00:06:46,259 --> 00:06:53,100
agreement but I believe Mr Coleman can
answer some of those questions or

76
00:06:49,860 --> 00:06:59,759
respond better to it yeah basically
Verizon wants to put a antenna on the

77
00:06:56,539 --> 00:07:04,560
blue water tank up there and they're
willing to as I understand it pay the

78
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:10,139
time about 460 dollars a month
uh in lease money uh and they want to

79
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:14,060
fight are talking about a five-year
lease

80
00:07:11,100 --> 00:07:20,280
and they're talking about a
three percent increase per year to take

81
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:25,680
care of inflation and then they would
like they wanted full renewals but we

82
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:29,940
could buy them and that was not possible
that most it could do would be 20 years

83
00:07:28,020 --> 00:07:36,479
you know but with three percent
compounded for 20 years it gets up to be

84
00:07:32,580 --> 00:07:42,240
a fairly decent figure you know and uh
type of thing and uh but uh the other

85
00:07:40,199 --> 00:07:45,539
thing is that I think that the plus to
us is

86
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:50,520
that this will give you if you do happen
to use it for us it'll give you much

87
00:07:48,660 --> 00:07:55,440
better reception than what you've had in
the past plus the fact that you will

88
00:07:52,919 --> 00:08:01,380
also have available to you 4G coverage
which is a heck of a lot faster than

89
00:07:58,259 --> 00:08:06,240
what might have now and so I think it's
a plus if it can be brought about in a

90
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:11,520
way that's not detrimental in any way
for the town right talk to Dennis

91
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:16,280
butcher about the antenna and he shared
me in Engineers did it's not a problem

92
00:08:13,919 --> 00:08:22,020
to have it up there that type of thing
they're asking for I think now an

93
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:26,400
agreement from now to the end of the
year or until you reach the other

94
00:08:24,060 --> 00:08:31,020
long-term agreement so that they can go
on and begin surveying and do making

95
00:08:29,099 --> 00:08:35,520
certain studies that they might need to
do that involve federal regulations and

96
00:08:33,899 --> 00:08:39,419
so forth and so on and I think right now
what they're looking for is that

97
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:45,540
resolution from y'all
saying that they can have access to the

98
00:08:42,300 --> 00:08:51,060
the tank itself or get in or key or
whatever because there's a lot gate and

99
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:56,820
can have access and digress from it and
to make some studies I mean now in the

100
00:08:54,060 --> 00:09:02,519
end of the year and hopefully that might
be done maybe even within the next 30 to

101
00:08:59,580 --> 00:09:05,519
60 days and maybe it might be it would
be operational

102
00:09:04,140 --> 00:09:10,680
services
and also on top of what Mr Coleman

103
00:09:07,980 --> 00:09:15,120
stated this would be the first Venture
for Verizon in the town of North

104
00:09:12,779 --> 00:09:19,080
Louisiana also with regards to
Etc yeah more in the library there's

105
00:09:17,820 --> 00:09:22,680
hell of us that they're going to use
whatever we agreed to it's a pattern for

106
00:09:21,180 --> 00:09:26,339
most of the other parents and all of the
gym so this is an agreement or a

107
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:31,260
resolution
security

108
00:09:28,620 --> 00:09:34,500
I wasn't prepared to a resolution we
will have that ready yes we don't have

109
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:38,399
to do an agreement for the end of the
year are you saying that they need a

110
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:43,019
resolution on a group
they would want an agreement in place to

111
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:46,680
get started basically to be able to get
the key to go on to the property because

112
00:09:44,700 --> 00:09:51,360
it is again they're looking for an
agreement that said it's okay for them

113
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:55,440
to come and do the surveys and have him
coming in and out of it and make plans

114
00:09:53,279 --> 00:10:01,440
for making an installation for the rest
to the until the rest of you December

115
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:06,660
31st that's right not if not to exceed
this in the 31st I think or otherwise

116
00:10:04,019 --> 00:10:13,500
what was recommended would say or until
y'all reach a long-term agreement with

117
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:18,959
them if it's super okay so not longer
but is it sooner

118
00:10:15,260 --> 00:10:22,820
okay I'm entertaining motion so that
would

119
00:10:20,300 --> 00:10:25,820
appreciate it
yeah

120
00:10:31,100 --> 00:10:42,180
Verizon Wireless to enter into a
agreement from October the 7th to

121
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:47,700
December 31st to start uh the process of
seeing how they can utilize an antenna

122
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:51,300
in 4G on the Oklahoma water tower
to the group and then if you come to an

123
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:55,200
agreement between that life resolution
and a conditional agreement between now

124
00:10:53,100 --> 00:11:00,060
it is in the 31st and bring it back to
the council

125
00:10:57,079 --> 00:11:05,180
will help everybody you say we will get
better service yes absolutely so that's

126
00:11:02,820 --> 00:11:11,700
interesting
so he will

127
00:11:07,260 --> 00:11:14,660
second all in favor by saying aye
um any opposed

128
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:21,800
okay Mr Coleman the grant updates

129
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,200
can I just talk from here

130
00:11:32,839 --> 00:11:41,100
basically the plan that asked me if I
would to come and let's make a

131
00:11:38,339 --> 00:11:46,500
report on the activities of the grant
committee and that's what we will

132
00:11:43,140 --> 00:11:53,640
attempt to do is the grant committee
Miss Jenkins is here and Mrs Jackson is

133
00:11:50,100 --> 00:12:01,320
here uh Mr mccalman's also on our
committee as he is the mayor and Laurie

134
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:06,420
uh is on the committee and uh Tony
Johnson

135
00:12:02,579 --> 00:12:09,060
and then the engineer which is a Baylor
engineer

136
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:12,000
and they were supposed to be here
tonight

137
00:12:09,959 --> 00:12:16,019
and they're not and I'm disappointed in
that because they were supposed to bring

138
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:19,320
some things to be passed out so that as
I'm trying to cover this y'all could be

139
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:23,579
looking at something you can take them
home with you and show you in more

140
00:12:20,940 --> 00:12:29,279
detail but anyway I'll try to recover it
as best I can okay one of the things

141
00:12:26,820 --> 00:12:35,000
that we kept accomplished since we began
to work on this is is last year we got a

142
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:41,100
35 000 grant
for which we bought a backup that the

143
00:12:38,700 --> 00:12:45,959
town's been using has been very helpful
and very new year

144
00:12:43,399 --> 00:12:51,360
and one of the other things that we've
done here since we got a grant for a

145
00:12:48,959 --> 00:12:55,320
hundred thousand dollars from Delta
Regional authorities to make some

146
00:12:52,860 --> 00:12:59,760
improvements to the Sewer treatment
plant down there and the town matched at

147
00:12:58,079 --> 00:13:05,100
was sixty thousand dollars and that's
been uh completed

148
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:10,740
there are still some other improvements
that need to be made down there to bring

149
00:13:07,380 --> 00:13:15,120
it up to Optimal operating efficiency
about years ago when that plant was put

150
00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:20,220
in
uh they

151
00:13:17,540 --> 00:13:24,839
didn't wind up with enough funds to
complete the project properly and so

152
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:29,760
they had to kind of gerrymander a pickup
and use some of the old stuff out of the

153
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:36,000
old plant in
it and it doesn't operate

154
00:13:33,300 --> 00:13:41,880
as well as it should have or could have
but yet still we still have an answer

155
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:48,120
maybe for that the other thing is is
that

156
00:13:42,779 --> 00:13:53,519
that we there was obtain a grant from
Louisiana Community Development block

157
00:13:50,760 --> 00:14:01,339
grant to put in a water well which y'all
all are aware of that has been put in

158
00:13:56,220 --> 00:14:08,880
that resulted in about was about 470 uh
one thousand dollars and of which the

159
00:14:05,279 --> 00:14:14,279
town had to pay I think it was about 37
000 out of that of low performance

160
00:14:12,180 --> 00:14:17,100
it's very fortunate that we got that
well

161
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:23,100
because now that we have another Well
down if we haven't had that drill drill

162
00:14:20,459 --> 00:14:28,920
we'd be in serious serious trouble you
know and as some of y'all are probably

163
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:35,399
wearing is there is another well over at
Mayfield that was an older well

164
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:42,839
that because of the alkaline salt
that has deep through the casing and the

165
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:48,060
internal fighting both we've had three
different companies have looked at it

166
00:14:44,339 --> 00:14:52,680
and said that it's not we don't believe
that it's going to be repairable

167
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:57,240
there's an outside possibility maybe a
10 change that we might could get some

168
00:14:54,839 --> 00:15:01,260
kind of special approval from the
Department of Health and

169
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:07,260
environmental people
to put a plastic sleeve inside that but

170
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:12,480
the likelihood of that is somewhat
remote but it is every opportunity of

171
00:15:10,620 --> 00:15:17,040
trying to drift that problem of that
well going down being looked at and

172
00:15:14,459 --> 00:15:21,360
addressed and we'll talk about that a
little bit later

173
00:15:18,779 --> 00:15:27,000
the
there was a project that we submitted

174
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:31,639
last year
to make improvements to the sewer system

175
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:37,579
down
really an area that's bounded by Lewis

176
00:15:34,260 --> 00:15:46,980
Marine Dutchtown Pearl Street West 4th
from Louisiana Department of funds

177
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:51,300
uh but it wasn't approved now we knew at
the time we submitted it that it

178
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:55,680
would be questionable
the situation that we got into that we

179
00:15:54,060 --> 00:16:00,600
understand that there were nine grants
submitted

180
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:04,139
six of them got approved all six of them
the town came up with about fifty

181
00:16:02,399 --> 00:16:08,760
thousand dollars matching funds which we
did not have at that time so we didn't

182
00:16:06,779 --> 00:16:13,019
commit that because we didn't have it
but we know that in the future we could

183
00:16:10,980 --> 00:16:19,139
resubmit it and if we come up with
matching funds like the other people did

184
00:16:15,500 --> 00:16:23,699
then we would likely be able to receive
that Grant in the near future

185
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:31,139
we did a
utility rate evaluation report

186
00:16:26,940 --> 00:16:37,800
and uh regular engineering did that and
uh that report had been done and at no

187
00:16:35,339 --> 00:16:44,699
cost of the town of Homer the rent that
we get from the EQ will pay the town

188
00:16:42,180 --> 00:16:51,779
whatever the cost of that was
uh this last year we had a

189
00:16:48,779 --> 00:16:57,860
applied for about 36 000 but we only got
uh thirty six thousand dollars from

190
00:16:55,079 --> 00:16:57,860
Louisiana Community

191
00:16:58,639 --> 00:17:07,699
and they've all weed eaters and mowing
equipment

192
00:17:03,839 --> 00:17:14,720
and repair a roof on some stuff I think
and that was at no cost to the panel

193
00:17:11,699 --> 00:17:20,339
uh the other thing that has happened
from our from the activity of the

194
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:26,640
committee was that there are two
groundwater tanks over at Mayfield

195
00:17:23,339 --> 00:17:30,860
they received water from the West
and then there is uh

196
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:39,299
chlorine cooked in the water to kill any
germs or an environmental stuff

197
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:43,799
but it has to be held supposedly in
there for about 30 30 minutes in order

198
00:17:42,059 --> 00:17:48,419
to be effective
those tanks are supposed to according to

199
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:54,559
the people that make pains these
supposed to be rehabilitated every 10

200
00:17:51,179 --> 00:17:59,100
years those tanks were over 20 years old
when we got some funds together to try

201
00:17:57,299 --> 00:18:02,660
to rehabilitate one which would cost
about twenty thousand dollars and they

202
00:18:01,559 --> 00:18:08,400
went over there and tried to
rehabilitate it and clean it up on the

203
00:18:04,860 --> 00:18:14,400
inside and scale off of it started one
enough a pencil-sized holes in almost

204
00:18:11,460 --> 00:18:19,919
every foot in the tank which meant
structural interior integrity was gone

205
00:18:17,299 --> 00:18:22,980
and so the bottom line is the people
that have cooked inside a tank said

206
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:27,720
there's no way they could do that to
give us any kind of guaranteed so then

207
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:32,100
the decision was made to seek some funds
and we took some funds that we were to

208
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:37,679
go used to run a lineup for Lion's Hill
Road we took some funds that we were

209
00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:40,440
going to maybe run a line out Dutchtown
Road you know and prove the line out

210
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:45,299
there
we got position to use those funds to

211
00:18:42,900 --> 00:18:50,760
happen replace that water tank over
there and then Town Council voted to

212
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:54,960
also supplement that with some funds
from the industrial funds which is

213
00:18:52,980 --> 00:18:59,820
permitted to do that under that when
that money collected is for water and

214
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:06,000
this is what that was for and that job
was completed in July

215
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:10,740
23rd of this year so we do have one good
tank over there and of course we still

216
00:19:08,820 --> 00:19:13,679
are going to have to address the idea of
what we're going to do about the other

217
00:19:11,820 --> 00:19:17,160
thing it's just as bad as the one we
give them a question

218
00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:21,240
um
you water metering system we've been

219
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:25,799
working on that for about a year year
and a half

220
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:31,140
uh it is being bid out at the present
time

221
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:35,280
and it looks like that the DEQ was
allowing about 900 000 and they will

222
00:19:33,539 --> 00:19:38,940
come under that nine hundred thousand
gold

223
00:19:36,419 --> 00:19:43,740
and if so then we may can use those
extra funds with their permission

224
00:19:40,620 --> 00:19:49,500
instead of qualified it or to do the
work that we have not been able to do at

225
00:19:46,679 --> 00:19:55,700
the wastewater treatment plant but you
know that's a two things the other thing

226
00:19:52,799 --> 00:19:55,700
is is we

227
00:19:57,380 --> 00:20:07,080
improvements to the Sewer lines
the van holes and a program that will

228
00:20:04,140 --> 00:20:11,340
let them take water from the soar plant
down there and use it to water the

229
00:20:08,820 --> 00:20:17,520
coffee forces and the water park the
ballpark

230
00:20:13,559 --> 00:20:22,980
and as well as put some monitoring
equipment on

231
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:28,440
the system whereby the engineers as well
as the local Town officials and or

232
00:20:25,919 --> 00:20:33,240
whoever is working with a sewer system
and monitoring them under computers

233
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:40,820
externally and if something goes wrong
try to get it fixed before it pairs up

234
00:20:37,860 --> 00:20:46,860
number two Community probated things
that Grant is for two million six

235
00:20:44,039 --> 00:20:51,360
hundred thousand a million of it we
don't have to pay that

236
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:57,179
the million million six
that we talked about that this has had

237
00:20:54,299 --> 00:21:01,919
to be paid back is over a 20-year period
at an interest rate of 0.95

238
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:10,400
which is probably risk than the
installation

239
00:21:04,340 --> 00:21:16,679
and so that has been bid out and and
it's in the process of of being done and

240
00:21:15,059 --> 00:21:20,820
improved and improved hopefully before
the end of the year

241
00:21:18,419 --> 00:21:23,880
of some of the the work will begin I
think one of the companies that's

242
00:21:22,020 --> 00:21:28,260
working on the sewer lines is already in
town

243
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:33,659
Hall and I'm trying to be brief but
y'all asked me to do it you know

244
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:38,000
this is that Baylor didn't come up with
a figure of about five hundred thousand

245
00:21:35,340 --> 00:21:43,760
dollars it is cost to renew the sea Hall
in complex and

246
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:49,799
what they come up with
and as a result of that last year your

247
00:21:46,740 --> 00:21:54,059
legislators came up with a hundred and
fifty thousand of which the town had to

248
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:58,140
come up with a 25 match or fifty
thousand dollars to make improvements to

249
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:02,460
the City Hall
but the guy that came up from Capital

250
00:22:00,419 --> 00:22:06,600
Alpha he told us that you know we'll
please wait we're going to try to get

251
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:10,620
you some more money next year about
something this and stuff is that okay so

252
00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:16,620
you can kind of do it at all at one time
but in order to do the 150 which would

253
00:22:14,159 --> 00:22:22,440
take care of a good portion of the roof
things that need to be taken care of

254
00:22:19,620 --> 00:22:27,419
yeah we got a twenty six thousand dollar
Grant so

255
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:32,700
um look at a community
funds and then we filed a claim for the

256
00:22:30,900 --> 00:22:38,400
insurance company which is both of our
recent storm and they give us 20 or

257
00:22:35,820 --> 00:22:44,220
around twenty four thousand dollars so
that 26 to 24 means that that will give

258
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:50,360
us the fifty thousand at the time needs
to match the 150 we got so we've got a

259
00:22:46,919 --> 00:22:57,179
capital Outlook October of this year
there's 225 thousand dollars

260
00:22:54,000 --> 00:23:01,860
has been approved by the legislature if
we get it funded in if you all know any

261
00:22:59,340 --> 00:23:06,539
legislatures please call them and
encourage them to see that it's funded

262
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:10,140
because if it's not funded or bonded
we won't get the money but we're hopeful

263
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:14,159
that it will be
we'll have to come up with a 75 000

264
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:19,200
match on that
and we will apply for Louisiana Lookout

265
00:23:17,460 --> 00:23:23,340
money and they've kind of indicated to
us that that would become that'll leave

266
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:27,240
us with forty thousand dollars that we
need and in order not to take it out of

267
00:23:25,620 --> 00:23:30,980
General funds
would

268
00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:36,240
want to ask that uh
representative Jefferson and he will try

269
00:23:34,380 --> 00:23:41,520
to put forty thousand dollars in there
for us

270
00:23:37,260 --> 00:23:46,140
uh in house bill one which will be at 35
Plus 40 or give us our 75 000 match so

271
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:50,700
we could get all this
that was just done all the handicap

272
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:54,419
accessible stuff and Etc that was being
required

273
00:23:51,659 --> 00:23:58,460
to be done without any
requirement of funds out of the grant

274
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:06,020
program
and uh the

275
00:24:02,820 --> 00:24:10,940
many questions about the DH Department
dhh has told us the old tank of their

276
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:15,860
food
I thought it was JC Parks up there mixed

277
00:24:13,740 --> 00:24:20,700
up Joe
mcafar that the old kind of the old

278
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:29,039
silver tank has done that
and so we got a grant to uh to take that

279
00:24:25,140 --> 00:24:32,400
paint down and it was 35 000 and we've
gotten indications it's probably going

280
00:24:30,659 --> 00:24:36,539
to cost less than 20.
and they told us that they would work

281
00:24:34,020 --> 00:24:42,299
with us on the other 15 and we use it
for any other project on the portable

282
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:49,140
drinking water sign and so that's where
we stand on that lines Hill Bridge you

283
00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:52,919
all asked me about 400 000 project and
on top of the gentleman down there and

284
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:57,500
he said that that's more or less been
finished

285
00:24:53,760 --> 00:25:04,400
and what we did on January the 14th of
2015. but April 14 2015. different Big

286
00:25:02,820 --> 00:25:11,159
League
anywhere in the 14th 2015. I think now

287
00:25:09,059 --> 00:25:16,260
that's when it's going to be biz
you know and it probably had multiple

288
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:20,880
years complete but in the meantime go
down and look at that bridge or if you

289
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:25,559
look at that sign on it I think it says
very very low limit

290
00:25:23,159 --> 00:25:30,960
information school buses or the fire
trucks or anything couldn't go over it

291
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:34,620
you know and so I think when y'all were
writing that letter to the police jury

292
00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:40,559
they made it their number one priority
of all the off-reach programs in the

293
00:25:37,140 --> 00:25:45,539
parish forums for the family and so a
big thank you to the public jury if I

294
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:51,299
think would certainly be an order and uh
thankful thing again let's go for what

295
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:55,020
did the school board do something about
the buses

296
00:25:52,799 --> 00:25:59,400
not letting them go over the bridge I
can't remember didn't they do something

297
00:25:56,159 --> 00:26:02,580
we alerted them to the situation and how
they addressed that I can't tell you I

298
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:08,039
can't remember either but they didn't
yeah they voted on Sunday

299
00:26:05,299 --> 00:26:11,820
well they aborted in support the pound
for the question again maybe that's

300
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:16,500
where she was and that was why it was
expedited it was so normal when you put

301
00:26:13,740 --> 00:26:20,520
one in under that offer off the bridge
program and really what that is and it

302
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:26,820
means that they get a certain amount of
money each year mistake uh to repair

303
00:26:23,940 --> 00:26:31,980
bridges that are not on the state roads
that's why they call it all Bridge you

304
00:26:28,980 --> 00:26:36,539
know off-road bridge and this is not
only state roadway and so that's why it

305
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:41,100
was in the polisher is really the one
that calls your shops on that they're

306
00:26:38,700 --> 00:26:44,279
the one is actually and they made it
their number one project I think two

307
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:48,659
years ago
so we've been doing all we could each

308
00:26:47,159 --> 00:26:50,720
other
um

309
00:26:53,900 --> 00:27:01,980
all I know the thing is there is a grant
that we're applying for for USDA to

310
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:06,840
improve the freshwater science
and uh that's not been completed yet

311
00:27:05,159 --> 00:27:13,799
maybe about the next meeting and who
will inform you of that but that would

312
00:27:10,260 --> 00:27:21,720
involve uh repainting the blue tank up
there you can include taking care of the

313
00:27:18,299 --> 00:27:27,000
other water treatment with what over
Mayfield that hadn't been done

314
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:32,640
and many other things mostly probably
replacing all lines over 25 or 30 years

315
00:27:29,820 --> 00:27:39,679
old and found and now we got some that's
70 or 80 years old that need to be

316
00:27:35,279 --> 00:27:39,679
replaced and that's enough for me to say

317
00:27:40,380 --> 00:27:47,340
um
thank you for that Grant update the

318
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:51,840
reason why that grand update was
um as late as it was because the grand

319
00:27:49,799 --> 00:27:56,760
committee meets and it's an agenda of
like 15 to 20 items trying to better the

320
00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:01,080
environment and the infrastructure here
at the town of home I appreciate the

321
00:27:58,919 --> 00:28:05,760
Grant Community and their due diligence
of serving and helping to retrieve all

322
00:28:03,779 --> 00:28:09,840
these grants and contact contacting the
necessary representatives and senators

323
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:14,039
and once again for making those weeks

324
00:28:11,220 --> 00:28:21,380
Mr Coleman for sharing with Tyler

326

and Jacob has given us some like updates

327
00:28:25,799 --> 00:28:31,679
I will
get more and this time I will entertain

328
00:28:30,059 --> 00:28:36,539
a motion to enter into executive
sessions absolutely

329
00:28:34,500 --> 00:28:41,460
all in favor
um

330
00:28:38,419 --> 00:28:44,179
to discuss American Wastewater contracts
Illinois

331
00:28:45,299 --> 00:28:47,600
remember

332
00:29:25,980 --> 00:29:32,460
question
I would probably thank you session

333
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:36,659
stated
um regarding Frank s and Willie knows

334
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:42,720
I'm going to Chief give his
recommendations for those two fighters

335
00:29:40,140 --> 00:29:46,980
in regards to also notes
hitting the investigation

336
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:52,380
involved in the FBI
obviously direct my recommendation

337
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:57,960
staying the suspension without faith
until I can get some closure for me

338
00:29:55,020 --> 00:30:02,880
in regards to Frank Evans
still stands suspension without faith in

339
00:30:00,539 --> 00:30:06,179
here before the castle however we have
numbers here but every time we have one

340
00:30:04,380 --> 00:30:08,640
something else comes up and something
else come up about some video tonight

341
00:30:07,620 --> 00:30:13,919
and we're going to do a little more
research on so my recommendation stands

342
00:30:11,399 --> 00:30:17,820
Mr Mayor if that's not correct that
Frank Evans estate on suspicion without

343
00:30:16,500 --> 00:30:21,539
faith
can make some more investigation into

344
00:30:20,159 --> 00:30:27,059
the outcome
once we get there into the into the

345
00:30:24,179 --> 00:30:32,000
outcome of this position of his uh
suspension until we get the rest of the

346
00:30:29,220 --> 00:30:37,580
video if we can get it
and if you know these recommendations or

347
00:30:34,740 --> 00:30:37,580
problems foreign

348
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,080
