1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,980
enough council member to do it and make sure we get through everything. We just get

2
00:00:07,980 --> 00:00:09,040
to quit talking.

3
00:00:11,740 --> 00:00:16,140
I couldn't have passed out up. Yeah. Yeah.

4
00:00:22,660 --> 00:00:28,620
All right. You got you got the mic. I can go ahead. Sorry.

5
00:00:34,970 --> 00:00:48,790
So one thing Gary and I worked on this week is as part of our sign ordinance updates we made it pretty clear that the feather or wind signs everybody likes to put up aren't allowed anymore.

6
00:00:49,450 --> 00:00:54,170
So we went out to pass out letters to all the businesses that had them.

7
00:00:54,170 --> 00:00:58,310
hopefully get them to voluntarily take them down without having to do any code

8
00:00:58,310 --> 00:01:04,870
enforcement. We printed out 25 letters and somehow we guessed right, passed out

9
00:01:04,870 --> 00:01:12,250
exactly 25 letters. So I'm amazed I haven't heard anything about it yet. Yeah no,

10
00:01:12,390 --> 00:01:16,730
I've only gotten a couple people come and ask me some questions so hopefully it's

11
00:01:16,730 --> 00:01:20,510
not everybody ignored us, it's everybody's just gonna do it, but it's

12
00:01:20,510 --> 00:01:26,310
We'll see on that there's count that. Well, they're going to put you in the county department. No, thanks

13
00:01:30,470 --> 00:01:36,890
For planning commission last week. It was a long agenda. They approved a

14
00:01:38,990 --> 00:01:46,330
cell tower out on 3000 south and SR7 right on the interchange here. There were two zone changes. You'll be seeing tonight

15
00:01:48,030 --> 00:01:54,190
the water district proposed a zone change on 600 acres or so that you guys

16
00:01:54,190 --> 00:01:58,910
might have heard some scuttle but about. The application wasn't really ready

17
00:01:58,910 --> 00:02:02,250
for the planning commission to make a recommendation on so that'll they

18
00:02:02,250 --> 00:02:06,230
table that they'll work on it some more and then now get to you guys. I'm at the

19
00:02:06,230 --> 00:02:12,790
end here about that one. Like we got text from somebody that said they wanted to

20
00:02:12,790 --> 00:02:16,970
meet with me because they exhausted the reference with staff and so they need to

21
00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:21,030
find out what direction we're going and they wanted to meet today and I told

22
00:02:21,030 --> 00:02:24,630
them I couldn't because my wife was having surgery but I could do it

23
00:02:24,630 --> 00:02:30,170
monthly if they'd do it. I have a road back from them so yeah we met with the

24
00:02:30,170 --> 00:02:34,750
water districts representatives yesterday and I think we had a pretty productive

25
00:02:34,750 --> 00:02:38,310
so maybe they took back in what that direction and we're going to solve it so

26
00:02:38,310 --> 00:02:44,590
all right and then they approved two preliminary plots one for the R1

27
00:02:44,590 --> 00:02:49,670
for development. You guys approved last year over by grandpa's pond and one for this isn't

28
00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:54,910
actually a new subdivision. They're condominiumizing and industrial development out on Olai 191.

29
00:02:55,650 --> 00:03:02,070
They approved the preliminary site plan for the new fire station out by sand hollow and

30
00:03:02,070 --> 00:03:08,490
then the preliminary site plan for Angelica's Mexican restaurant. That'll be going on the corner

31
00:03:08,490 --> 00:03:13,470
of 100 West and state streets where across country diner is and then they also approved

32
00:03:13,470 --> 00:03:17,350
the preliminary site plan for cross-country diner to be moving to one of the

33
00:03:17,350 --> 00:03:27,410
lots behind Jimmy John's. So that'll be a bit of a mix-up around here. And stand

34
00:03:27,410 --> 00:03:32,830
the hat down there. Yeah so I think they'll be moving the existing facility just

35
00:03:32,830 --> 00:03:36,990
down there since it's an undeveloped lot they will need to improve the lot

36
00:03:36,990 --> 00:03:41,030
putting gravel parking and all that stuff. It's something that goes right along with

37
00:03:41,030 --> 00:03:43,550
I guess, when they say there's like two or three of them.

38
00:03:43,810 --> 00:03:45,510
Yeah. Nation wide or something.

39
00:03:45,590 --> 00:03:46,590
That then in the nation.

40
00:03:46,710 --> 00:03:47,550
Seven in the nation.

41
00:03:47,750 --> 00:03:50,310
And so it's it's actually a real time.

42
00:03:50,610 --> 00:03:51,850
Forward to nation wide.

43
00:03:51,930 --> 00:03:53,910
And it's in that same configuration.

44
00:03:54,470 --> 00:03:59,940
So and I think that's all after a port on unless you guys

45
00:03:59,940 --> 00:04:00,740
have any questions.

46
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,160
I don't have much beyond that.

47
00:04:07,540 --> 00:04:11,920
I would just add that next week's planning commission has been

48
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:17,980
We didn't really have any applications and the two that we reviewed at staff meeting aren't ready yet.

49
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:25,400
They aren't ready for consideration so we won't even put that agenda out so no planning commission next week.

50
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,840
Other than that, if you have any questions from me, I'll try to answer them.

51
00:04:31,700 --> 00:04:32,200
Okay.

52
00:04:37,860 --> 00:04:46,580
Everything's good. We're all good. We're well to sit in between there. I know there's a huge gap. I'm not the best for anything that covers there too.

53
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:59,140
As everyone's aware, we had a flood event that occurred. Shout out to the police in the water department for helping us out, getting everything closed.

54
00:04:59,140 --> 00:05:01,800
that was definitely the biggest flood I've ever seen.

55
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,820
Hopefully, I don't have to experience another one like that,

56
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:05,720
but you never know.

57
00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:09,820
Right now, we're just in cleanup efforts.

58
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,300
Everything on the surface is good.

59
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,540
We've got as much as we can.

60
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:14,120
We're hitting underground.

61
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,580
All of our 48-inch lines that were right there.

62
00:05:17,940 --> 00:05:19,500
So we're pretty packed full of mud.

63
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,040
So we're just trying to get all that,

64
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,160
jet it out and clean out and floor or floor restored.

65
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,920
Sorry, sales going very well.

66
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:38,160
There are going to be hidden Sky Mountain Boulevard, the Gulf Course this upcoming week preparations are already starting to notify everyone with that.

67
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,540
I think that's bad all that I got. There's any questions for me.

68
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:57,820
Well, you mentioned the flood. I had estimates still caught me a few days ago and so they were going to put up $25,000 to help the flood victims.

69
00:05:58,740 --> 00:06:05,040
And I opened up an account at State Bank of Southern Utah, so the people could donate to that if they wanted to.

70
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,380
And then I talked to them later, they decided they're going to keep it in the account they have.

71
00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:19,080
But they actually put down here on this little flyer, they'll match up to $30,000 or show anybody that puts money in account.

72
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:26,240
Yeah, so I encourage anybody who can put money in there and will hopefully can use all

73
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,040
their 30,000.

74
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,860
There are a few people that didn't have flood insurance and a couple that are going

75
00:06:31,860 --> 00:06:36,720
to find some deficiencies there, so anybody who wants to help, it's just in the hurricane

76
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:43,760
flood down the state bank of southern Utah and, you know, it's good for neighbors between

77
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,800
the people that helped and the people who really don't eat a lot of good people.

78
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:47,760
so perfect.

79
00:06:50,310 --> 00:06:55,690
Any other questions? Did we get a total number of homes that actually got water inside?

80
00:06:56,270 --> 00:07:00,630
Not yet, we're still working with that. I know a lot just got it in the garage it sounds like, but

81
00:07:01,730 --> 00:07:08,190
yeah most of the area that got hit pretty hard was the pecan park and a little bit of 850, but

82
00:07:09,290 --> 00:07:12,990
that's kind of what the damage was. So we're

83
00:07:15,230 --> 00:07:18,790
working with any injuries to people or animals

84
00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:23,890
were not like that. I think that there's a couple chickens that have been reported missing, but

85
00:07:23,890 --> 00:07:24,950
I'm sorry.

86
00:07:27,170 --> 00:07:32,270
Weston saved a bunch of horses. Yes he did. You know, he rode there,

87
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,620
but riding might have lost his shoes in that too. I'm going to have to reimburse him.

88
00:07:41,260 --> 00:07:48,200
So Mike might be bored on this, but that flood water got up into the transformers,

89
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:54,900
Up into the secondary bars. No secondary bars are bare exposed. So you had that heavy-duty muddy water

90
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,420
up into that and

91
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:03,520
The fuse is never blue the power stayed on nobody got shocked or anything so pretty amazing

92
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,800
That state energized like having water into your outlets, you know

93
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:14,780
Is that it 700? That's a that's a bridge. Oh, how did the one by 700 do?

94
00:08:15,300 --> 00:08:19,860
the box there in the pocket got up into the primary it would have probably just

95
00:08:19,860 --> 00:08:23,640
what six inches or so from the primary so I don't think you got that high from

96
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:29,020
that one but then that be gone park it's up quite a ways yeah we were famous on

97
00:08:29,020 --> 00:08:33,700
the news we got a couple shots of us swimming so I was kind of nice I left my

98
00:08:33,700 --> 00:08:37,340
floaters at home so they're in my truck now so this ever happens again we're

99
00:08:37,340 --> 00:08:41,660
prepared we're waiting to see them yeah okay deal yeah

100
00:08:44,260 --> 00:08:45,740
like Councilman Himalay said

101
00:08:45,740 --> 00:08:53,260
we had a couple boxes one completely submerged underwater actually and I'm not quite sure exactly how

102
00:08:53,260 --> 00:08:59,320
but the power never shut off we never skipped to be we went back on later and opened everything up

103
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:05,520
and aired everything out and yeah we didn't have any any issues at all so very uneventful for power

104
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,340
as far as that goes which is awesome which is usually not the case when power starts going underneath

105
00:09:11,340 --> 00:09:21,040
water, but the basement's completely full of mud. The basements were full muddy water, but it never

106
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:21,980
got up into the primary.

107
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,900
That's all I got. I guess on the flood, it's pretty uneventful for us

108
00:09:29,900 --> 00:09:40,140
luckily, knock on Oracle Plate always this that way. I guess we got the UM's conference coming up

109
00:09:40,140 --> 00:09:45,340
next week, so I'm sure you guys all know about them, plan about that. If you've missed it, you're probably

110
00:09:45,340 --> 00:09:51,840
too late now. So I just expressed my condolences. I couldn't make it this way. I had surgery today.

111
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,740
It's got another one next week. So I kind of didn't know how it's going to be. So I skipped out on it.

112
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:04,140
It's the first one I missed in a while. So it should be a good one. So I'm looking forward to see

113
00:10:04,140 --> 00:10:09,820
everybody up there that's coming and yeah, I guess on Monday or even Sunday night probably.

114
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,440
So if you guys got any questions from me or anything for

115
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:14,480
Yeah

116
00:10:17,070 --> 00:10:21,330
generators still running running well still running yeah we're good

117
00:10:22,110 --> 00:10:26,150
Generatorsion is interesting so I got some more information on that we'll

118
00:10:26,150 --> 00:10:31,550
talk about power board and stuff but we're gonna run what we've already

119
00:10:31,550 --> 00:10:35,790
ran more than we've ever ran or probably gonna run continue to run so there's

120
00:10:35,790 --> 00:10:40,810
some advantages to us running as it affects to our transmission costs and

121
00:10:40,810 --> 00:10:46,230
fees. It's kind of added another dimension to to cost on their son.

122
00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:54,910
Well outside of the

123
00:10:54,910 --> 00:11:01,250
exciting news that we have from the flood here in town, we had water pretty much everywhere

124
00:11:01,250 --> 00:11:09,430
on Friday. We had turf sod road that is going to require some rehabilitation after the water

125
00:11:09,430 --> 00:11:13,770
that came and sat there. We're going to have to work on some drainage and lifting the

126
00:11:13,770 --> 00:11:21,550
roads. Also at the intersection of SR7 and Sand Hollow Road, the floodwaters brought

127
00:11:21,550 --> 00:11:27,130
down Sand Office and mountain and plugged up all of the storm drains and infrastructure

128
00:11:27,130 --> 00:11:33,190
there. So that's another job that we're going to be working on. So there was there was

129
00:11:33,190 --> 00:11:41,210
significant work created all around the valley for us. I am grateful that we didn't have

130
00:11:41,210 --> 00:11:47,870
any loss of life or any injuries and I am sorry for those individuals who suffered property

131
00:11:47,870 --> 00:11:56,150
damage and those kind of things but we do continue to assess the damage and look at

132
00:11:56,150 --> 00:12:06,110
areas that need some work and move forward in that direction. Outside of the flooding we

133
00:12:06,110 --> 00:12:11,290
We still have development activity this morning and this room we held a pre-construction

134
00:12:11,290 --> 00:12:17,490
meeting for Magnolia Court which is a little project right down here on the corner of

135
00:12:17,490 --> 00:12:23,090
100 North and 700 West just below where Calvary Chapel is going to be.

136
00:12:24,070 --> 00:12:29,510
So we got a little subdivision that's going to go in there and next Tuesday we're going

137
00:12:29,510 --> 00:12:35,550
to have a pre-construction meeting on a little subdivision that's going in out behind the

138
00:12:35,550 --> 00:12:42,890
motels on 26 under west. So with project starting and project finishing it it

139
00:12:42,890 --> 00:12:45,150
still keeps us pretty busy.

140
00:12:47,170 --> 00:12:50,130
Outside of that unless you have questions for me I

141
00:12:50,130 --> 00:12:55,770
don't think I have anything else. What's coming in there behind the motels now

142
00:12:55,770 --> 00:12:59,650
where they've been doing all the excavation and rock work there? Is that a

143
00:12:59,650 --> 00:13:02,230
subdivision also? That's Joby the Noody.

144
00:13:02,230 --> 00:13:06,250
I have a sub-evasion, that name

145
00:13:10,570 --> 00:13:13,190
kind of sounded like a mob name, so everybody knows.

146
00:13:14,170 --> 00:13:15,570
Good evening, mayor and council.

147
00:13:16,470 --> 00:13:23,430
I got two very excited young ladies here to meet you all this evening and I'll introduce

148
00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:27,450
them and they'll introduce themselves to my immediate right.

149
00:13:27,670 --> 00:13:35,330
We have Miss Kayla Bronson who will replace Michelle, Princess in our utility department and

150
00:13:35,330 --> 00:13:40,030
And then we have Miss Shalice Flanagan sit into the immediate right of her, who will

151
00:13:40,030 --> 00:13:41,250
be replacing Kira.

152
00:13:41,910 --> 00:13:44,790
I'll let them introduce themselves and then so they can get out of here.

153
00:13:46,250 --> 00:13:48,190
Can I take more than five minutes home?

154
00:13:49,990 --> 00:13:50,950
I'll try.

155
00:13:52,670 --> 00:13:56,870

156
00:13:58,070 --> 00:13:59,170
Nice to meet you all.

157
00:14:01,130 --> 00:14:03,450
How long have you been in the area?

158
00:14:03,450 --> 00:14:10,130
in the area. I live in well probably a couple years. I've left and come back a few

159
00:14:10,130 --> 00:14:16,330
times so we can add it up. I graduated from Hark and High so yeah and I started

160
00:14:16,330 --> 00:14:22,870
back in June so here city so I'm happy to be here.

161
00:14:28,050 --> 00:14:29,930
You guys have to take five minutes.

162
00:14:31,410 --> 00:14:36,570
Anyways, I'm at Shalice. I just started on Monday. I grew up in Enterprise and have

163
00:14:36,570 --> 00:14:40,670
Ben in St. George for about five years now and I'm excited to be here.

164
00:14:42,850 --> 00:14:45,390
We're glad to have you. We got some big shoes to fill.

165
00:14:46,530 --> 00:14:51,830
We do need to give a shout out to Cara who is trying to probably not say anything but

166
00:14:51,830 --> 00:14:55,670
Cara has been with us for about four years now. Yeah, four years.

167
00:14:55,670 --> 00:14:59,410
She takes a little bit but has elected to move on and retire.

168
00:15:00,340 --> 00:15:15,660
And street art employees really well. Anyway, we will miscarriage. She's done a wonderful job for payroll and has really brought it a long ways. As of what? This paper, you know, we are 100%.

169
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:35,320
fantastic job to or excited to have her sorry see here ago we tried our best to

170
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:41,640

171
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,880
so we get her all you've

172
00:15:47,050 --> 00:15:47,210
done

173
00:15:47,210 --> 00:15:48,150
thank you

174
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,900
he ladies can go if you oh no thank

175
00:15:57,450 --> 00:15:59,590
you

176
00:16:03,670 --> 00:16:06,210
You've got to stop scaring them.

177
00:16:09,430 --> 00:16:14,870
Well, you have the list in front of you in regards to some people that we have hired.

178
00:16:15,930 --> 00:16:17,770
We shall ease being one of them.

179
00:16:17,870 --> 00:16:23,150
We have a new part-time custodian who's mostly just transferring within the REC department,

180
00:16:24,010 --> 00:16:39,130
Stacey Weber and then Carly Minor, she's just been promoted to the gymnasium manager and then we do have a quite a few positions open that we're still trying to fill and if I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure we fill the lateral police officer one.

181
00:16:39,850 --> 00:16:46,090
Okay, I'll let Kurt talk about that and then we're getting ready to have interviews on the rest of them.

182
00:16:46,910 --> 00:16:55,530
But other than that, we are trying to move as paperless as we possibly can.

183
00:16:55,690 --> 00:16:59,750
If you've been in my office, you will understand what I'm talking about or even past the door.

184
00:17:00,230 --> 00:17:06,030
If you can get in there, but I'm just grateful at least with the flooding last week that nobody

185
00:17:06,030 --> 00:17:06,590
was injured.

186
00:17:06,950 --> 00:17:08,550
Hayden refused my help, by the way.

187
00:17:08,810 --> 00:17:13,530
Just want you all to know that I offered, but I'm glad nobody was injured.

188
00:17:17,100 --> 00:17:25,310
So, Kate can fill out the workers comp, but we're coming along with our website too, Miss

189
00:17:25,310 --> 00:17:31,470
Indy and Miss Millier. I've been working on that and then we got our upcoming CPR classes

190
00:17:31,470 --> 00:17:37,290
coming up for our employees. We try to take care of that one time of the year so that way

191
00:17:37,290 --> 00:17:43,430
all of our staff are certified. Does anybody have any questions for me?

192
00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:47,470
Thank you.

193
00:17:47,470 --> 00:17:49,190
So even

194
00:17:51,910 --> 00:18:00,110
in council, just to kind of go a little farther with thanking people we actually had while we were down there

195
00:18:00,650 --> 00:18:07,070
Interstate Rock showed up with a bunch of their equipment and helped out a lot. Cody Goodfellow showed up with his equipment and helped out a lot.

196
00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:16,470
We had a couple guys Dave Jessup and Carson Wright and a few other guys from the water conservative district that came down and helped out more there for a long time also.

197
00:18:16,470 --> 00:18:21,110
So we had lots of, lots of hands and a lot of help from a lot of people and just good

198
00:18:21,110 --> 00:18:22,090
people in the community.

199
00:18:23,350 --> 00:18:25,810
Just give you a little update on the water.

200
00:18:27,530 --> 00:18:35,410
We passed our leak test on our Sky Ranch tank and we passed our water sample test out there.

201
00:18:36,130 --> 00:18:38,530
So we're close to turning it in.

202
00:18:38,770 --> 00:18:43,630
We thought we were going to turn it in yesterday to the system but now we got to wait for the

203
00:18:43,630 --> 00:18:44,930
state to tell us it's okay.

204
00:18:44,930 --> 00:18:49,510
So there's always there's always something so we're really close

205
00:18:50,430 --> 00:18:57,470
The two wells we got one that's back up and around and we're about 70 feet from completion on the drilling and then they'll get equipment in there

206
00:18:57,470 --> 00:19:03,670
We'll start test pumping it and that's the ghouls wash. We are still broke down out at Sky Ranch well

207
00:19:03,670 --> 00:19:12,290
They sent their head to California and the guys stay in there for a couple days till they get it fixed and then he'll bring it back and they'll be up and running again

208
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,420
I think that's about it, unless you guys have anything for us.

209
00:19:20,620 --> 00:19:25,200
Water still looks good, tanks are doing well, water is running well, it's good to have

210
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,960
a little bit of time with not necessarily having a flood, but having some rain that slows

211
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,080
things down a little bit, so everything system looks good right now.

212
00:19:34,300 --> 00:19:38,740
How do you stand under pressure, irrigation, sector phase, when are you going to get going

213
00:19:38,740 --> 00:19:39,100
on it?

214
00:19:40,140 --> 00:19:43,360
So for the first phase, just give you a date on that.

215
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,120
We have a start date for September 15th that we'll start.

216
00:19:47,460 --> 00:19:50,320
We're going to turn on the boosters and start trying to put water in the pond.

217
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,240
And as soon as we get that pond full of water, we're going to turn it into the system.

218
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:59,200
If everything goes good, so I've had a few residents today, the call, it kind of has

219
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:04,280
a tent to tell them that date, but I did tell them that that's what we're shooting for.

220
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:05,700
So we kind of set a date.

221
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:13,200
so we had some to shoot for. We're waiting on a few more numbers that we should I

222
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:17,180
thought I was going to have them today but they didn't get here so hopefully tomorrow but we're

223
00:20:17,180 --> 00:20:22,520
hoping to have them wrapped up by next week and we'll be able to hopefully put it on the council

224
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:31,280
for the next time so that's where we're at with that. So anything else? If you guys are missing any

225
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:36,280
shovels I saw in 850 there's a lot of lost tools there so if you need any say it would

226
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:42,220
have stocked us all back up there if I told Hayden just grab mom but no shovel

227
00:20:42,220 --> 00:20:48,120
too you might need it yeah thanks thanks for all your help yeah that was that was

228
00:20:48,120 --> 00:20:56,320
amazing even though you were playing bumper cars yeah nobody ran into each other I'm

229
00:20:58,690 --> 00:21:05,470
I'm excited to announce we have a new SRO changement assignment.

230
00:21:05,710 --> 00:21:10,750
So we have Paige Roundy who will be out to the intermediate school for you that know

231
00:21:10,750 --> 00:21:11,810
officer Roundy.

232
00:21:12,110 --> 00:21:16,770
She has the perfect personality to work with the youth and we're excited to have her

233
00:21:16,770 --> 00:21:20,610
down there and she is learning the ropes this week.

234
00:21:20,990 --> 00:21:25,870
They have a whole new admin down there, a principal, a vice principal and a new SRO.

235
00:21:25,870 --> 00:21:31,770
So they're all kind of learning together, but I know that Officer Roundee will do a great job down there

236
00:21:32,610 --> 00:21:37,430
We're going to be doing interviews this next Thursday for an animal shelter attendant

237
00:21:38,190 --> 00:21:40,490
And hopefully we'll get that position filled

238
00:21:41,090 --> 00:21:42,970
I also wanted to make you guys aware

239
00:21:43,590 --> 00:21:44,550
next month

240
00:21:45,070 --> 00:21:49,770
On September 26. We're going to hold our national night out

241
00:21:50,370 --> 00:21:55,490
This is we've invited law enforcement agencies from all around the east side of the county

242
00:21:55,490 --> 00:22:01,470
to come and participate. We're going to have some K-9 officers there doing demos. We've invited the

243
00:22:01,470 --> 00:22:07,690
fire department also. We'll be cooking up hot dogs and we'll have water but just kind of a good

244
00:22:07,690 --> 00:22:13,130
opportunity for the community to come out and meet our local law enforcement. We're pushing to

245
00:22:13,130 --> 00:22:19,950
maybe even have the UHP helicopter there. That's not been confirmed yet, but the county's going to

246
00:22:19,950 --> 00:22:24,830
bring their new barricade, their new command center. So there should be all kinds of new

247
00:22:24,830 --> 00:22:30,270
equipment that we can show off and let the community see. So it should be a good

248
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:40,090
event. Again, that's going to be on September. I forgot. 26. 26. So I'm 68 at the community

249
00:22:40,090 --> 00:22:45,750
center. And then yeah, we're excited. We picked up a new lateral. Am I okay to officially

250
00:22:45,750 --> 00:22:53,210
now. I haven't seen any paperwork. We signed it. Okay. We just haven't. Yeah, we're good.

251
00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:56,210
We're good. Okay. We don't have an offer later yet.

252
00:22:58,390 --> 00:23:01,330
But yeah, we picked up a lateral from

253
00:23:02,070 --> 00:23:09,410
from Cedar City. So we'll be introducing him. His father once worked for our police department. So

254
00:23:09,410 --> 00:23:17,510
So he has some history, his Seth Rogers, so he'll do a great job.

255
00:23:17,550 --> 00:23:22,030
He worked for Cedar City Police Department and they had a lot of good things to say about

256
00:23:22,030 --> 00:23:22,230
him.

257
00:23:22,350 --> 00:23:23,410
So we're glad to pick him up.

258
00:23:23,490 --> 00:23:28,210
He already lives down here in Southern Utah and he wants to stay in this area.

259
00:23:28,210 --> 00:23:33,230
So we were glad that he had come to work for us and that's all I have.

260
00:23:33,710 --> 00:23:35,270
Do you have any questions for me?

261
00:23:37,910 --> 00:23:38,090
All right.

262
00:23:38,230 --> 00:23:38,750
Thank you.

263
00:23:38,750 --> 00:23:40,290
Nice to meet you.

264
00:23:42,530 --> 00:23:49,390
Good evening. Over the last few couple of weeks for permit wise we've had 13 single family home permits submitted a

265
00:23:50,070 --> 00:23:54,630
Threeplex town home unit and two two unit town home permits submitted

266
00:23:54,630 --> 00:24:01,810
So still got a little bit of work going on keeping things going got it up so we can keep him going with his flood work

267
00:24:02,300 --> 00:24:06,770
No, we're not building the flood zone. So other than that any questions

268
00:24:07,870 --> 00:24:08,410
Thanks

269
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,680
One of these days, I'll have something to say, but today is not one of those days.

270
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:23,580
So if there's any questions for me, then happy to answer, but if not, then I'll pass along.

271
00:24:25,020 --> 00:24:28,060
All we want you to do is be able to say yes every time we need money.

272
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:35,060
I've been told otherwise, but now I know that that was to the staff that's not to the mayor.

273
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:43,080
that's fair. That's fair. My job almost hit the floor. It's not what I was not. Well I know

274
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:49,860
I taught you for what you do what the job you have there, but that was for the staff. Now I'm

275
00:24:49,860 --> 00:24:53,960
mayor, you know, it's a different story. That's right. There's different rules. Different rules. Yeah.

276
00:24:59,230 --> 00:25:06,090
Okay, I'm happy to announce we got ourselves a ticketing system for the theater. Yay! We're so excited.

277
00:25:06,090 --> 00:25:09,090
Obviously, we'll finish this show with just the system we got.

278
00:25:09,470 --> 00:25:12,450
We're too far along in the show to switch midstream.

279
00:25:13,050 --> 00:25:15,590
So we're going to finish this show out.

280
00:25:16,010 --> 00:25:17,590
We're onboarding getting ready.

281
00:25:17,770 --> 00:25:21,450
We're going to test it for Casey Lofthouse as a Christmas concert.

282
00:25:21,610 --> 00:25:22,430
We're going to test it out.

283
00:25:22,670 --> 00:25:25,190
Work out some of the bugs so we're ready to go for the spring show.

284
00:25:25,790 --> 00:25:29,390
But we're so excited to finally, so thank you.

285
00:25:29,410 --> 00:25:30,770
Thank you for your support in that.

286
00:25:30,910 --> 00:25:31,830
We're excited to have that.

287
00:25:31,830 --> 00:25:36,490
Yeah, just a couple of changes in the rec department I want to make you aware of.

288
00:25:37,170 --> 00:25:42,890
Our Recreation Coordinator moved, jumped positions, now it's currently minor was our

289
00:25:42,890 --> 00:25:45,890
rec coordinator, she's going to take over managing the gymnasium.

290
00:25:46,550 --> 00:25:50,550
So we'll have somebody there that's programming, planning tournaments and stuff now so we're

291
00:25:50,550 --> 00:25:55,410
excited to have that position filled, which means we have a vacancy.

292
00:25:55,970 --> 00:25:58,890
So we're hiring a full-time Recreation Coordinator.

293
00:25:58,890 --> 00:26:04,970
We also have a part-time staff assistant, the front desk at the gym.

294
00:26:05,430 --> 00:26:09,970
She also worked at one of our, we're lucky, we're glad they want to stay with us.

295
00:26:10,430 --> 00:26:13,550
So we, they moved from one position to another and then now we're back filling.

296
00:26:13,810 --> 00:26:15,630
So, one of my front desk moved.

297
00:26:16,130 --> 00:26:20,810
So we have a part-time custodian now at the gyms and that's glorious to have somebody there.

298
00:26:21,130 --> 00:26:24,210
It relieves my custodian Cassidy at the community center.

299
00:26:24,210 --> 00:26:44,410
So so we also have a front desk position that is is available as well that we're hiring for and then also a recreation aid. So I've got three positions are open to part time and one full time position. So if you know somebody that would be such a good addition to the right department, we would be so happy to have some good applicants to choose from.

300
00:26:45,130 --> 00:26:47,870
And then we're just prepping for peach days.

301
00:26:48,490 --> 00:26:51,710
The boys' bathroom is almost finished.

302
00:26:52,010 --> 00:26:53,370
We had a few little hiccups,

303
00:26:53,370 --> 00:26:55,590
but we're just wrapping that up

304
00:26:55,590 --> 00:26:56,530
hopefully next week.

305
00:26:56,630 --> 00:26:59,850
Partitions will go in and we'll be ready for peach days.

306
00:27:00,170 --> 00:27:02,870
And both of those bathrooms in the middle hallway

307
00:27:02,870 --> 00:27:04,490
are gonna be brand new fresh

308
00:27:04,490 --> 00:27:09,090
and hopefully water-free during the whole event.

309
00:27:09,710 --> 00:27:14,210
So, did we upgrade the like the drainage and stuff

310
00:27:14,210 --> 00:27:19,510
I know we've had back-up problems with the bathrooms in there. Any plumbing improve?

311
00:27:20,090 --> 00:27:25,330
So the actual galvanized pipe that runs through the walls,

312
00:27:26,790 --> 00:27:31,690
no, it's still the same, same stuff. It was all PDC when we got in there. It had been replaced.

313
00:27:31,870 --> 00:27:40,390
It's PDC, we replaced it with PDC. It's our, it's our backing up into like further down the road,

314
00:27:40,390 --> 00:27:46,490
down the line. That is the problem but we have preemptively hydrogetted chain

315
00:27:46,490 --> 00:27:50,290
whipped the drains and stuff this week in anticipation for a lot

316
00:27:50,290 --> 00:27:55,910
to traffic and the building both buildings so hopefully we don't have any any

317
00:27:55,910 --> 00:28:01,090
big issues about who knows we'll see we're gonna play it by air so now they're made

318
00:28:01,090 --> 00:28:06,510
for adults and children from yeah in fact that was our problem is they raised the

319
00:28:06,510 --> 00:28:09,850
urinals and then they raised them too high so you had to stand on your tippy toes

320
00:28:09,850 --> 00:28:16,110
was we're good a step ladder. So the year knows we're super high. So we had to bring

321
00:28:16,110 --> 00:28:24,350
we found a happy medium we think we hope. So that was our hiccup actually. So anyway yeah we're

322
00:28:24,350 --> 00:28:29,710
excited though. We're excited for each stage to to come and hopefully we're ready for it. So

323
00:28:30,730 --> 00:28:39,830
oh the show's doing well too. We're about we're about halfway through the show and we're about

324
00:28:39,830 --> 00:28:48,150
people that the plays are very good will come the time I just I've heard a lot of good comments bring a

325
00:28:48,150 --> 00:28:54,430
granddaughter I just want to Monday and it was I was so impressed with the sets and the singing it was

326
00:28:54,430 --> 00:29:00,330
really incredible but that was my question is how has it has it been profitable like have you been

327
00:29:00,330 --> 00:29:09,670
getting what you need yeah yeah like of course we want more we would love to be ahead we're on track

328
00:29:09,670 --> 00:29:15,850
though to be where we need to be. Yeah, it's really good. I don't know if there's more ways

329
00:29:15,850 --> 00:29:21,030
we can spread the word because we really enjoyed it. Oh, good. I'm so glad. How'd you like the

330
00:29:21,030 --> 00:29:27,150
screen? Loved the screen. It was yeah, and I loved all the variety you could do with this set.

331
00:29:27,310 --> 00:29:32,470
That way that was yeah. Yeah, I mean, it rivals to a con's got a screen like that and I thought it was

332
00:29:32,470 --> 00:29:37,610
as good as the one I took on. Oh, so good. It was really good. We think it's awesome too. So, anyway,

333
00:29:37,610 --> 00:29:43,690
come to the show hopefully before peach days. I think peach days will be crazy or just because

334
00:29:43,690 --> 00:29:49,370
it's hot people will want to maybe come in out of the heat and sit in a cool theater. So yeah come

335
00:29:49,930 --> 00:29:51,290
watch the show. Here

336
00:29:54,010 --> 00:29:56,010
Mike. I've covered

337
00:29:58,500 --> 00:29:59,740
everybody of the staff dating.

338
00:30:02,030 --> 00:30:31,690
I can provide an update on a couple things. The city's appeals board had a hearing yesterday, and it was for a variance. So the appeals board, usually kind of two general functions, when there's an administrative decision made by the city and the applicant disagrees with that, they can appeal that to the city of Pills Board. Or if somebody would like a variance to a city ordinance, then they ask for that variance to the appeals board. It's made up of three members.

339
00:30:32,870 --> 00:30:43,990
So this one was a variance request for a lot in fire rock, and the owner wanted an exception to the setback requirements.

340
00:30:44,610 --> 00:31:00,150
They wanted to move the house closer to the street, and their justification was their argument was, is that a rock retaining wall in the backyard made their lot smaller, and so they needed to move their house closer to the street to be able to use the lot.

341
00:31:00,150 --> 00:31:06,650
not. Fred and Gary did a good job preparing a staff report that outlined what the criteria

342
00:31:06,650 --> 00:31:14,630
are for variances. It's set by state law and there's five requirements yet. I won't

343
00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:19,810
get into the details. But in general, it has to be a very unique limitation on that particular

344
00:31:19,810 --> 00:31:26,170
piece of property that is not self-imposed and not solely economic in nature. And so the

345
00:31:26,170 --> 00:31:30,610
The appeals were looked at that and they looked at the houses that had been built on both sides of this house.

346
00:31:30,610 --> 00:31:41,590
It had the same retaining wall in the backyard and they just, they didn't buy off that this was a unique piece of property that warranted an exception to the city ordinances and they denied that request.

347
00:31:45,190 --> 00:31:51,850
Also, the the San Hollow Mesa development agreement amendment has been recorded.

348
00:31:51,850 --> 00:32:02,390
And so I think that has been, as far as legal claims, is resolved now and now it's just a matter of processing those applications for that neighborhood 6.

349
00:32:03,070 --> 00:32:05,490
You know, should they choose to move ahead with that?

350
00:32:06,470 --> 00:32:13,290
There's been talk, but we haven't received an application for the first phase of that neighborhood 6, the way we agreed.

351
00:32:13,990 --> 00:32:19,330
So we don't know what their plan is, but the legal issue for now has been resolved.

352
00:32:24,660 --> 00:32:34,760
The mayor asked about a potential closed meeting to talk about a project proposal and a potential development agreement.

353
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,600
And so if that's if you're interested in that, we can look forward to that.

354
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,700
Don't get too excited at the end of the meeting because I think we'll extend it a little bit.

355
00:32:43,300 --> 00:32:47,580
And while we're doing that, I'd also like to talk about the potential sale.

356
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,840
Some matters related to the sale of purchases and property.

357
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:55,460
So when we get there, we can talk about those two reasons to close the meeting.

358
00:32:56,460 --> 00:32:57,400
That's all I had.

359
00:32:57,900 --> 00:32:58,440
Any questions?

360
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:01,120
Kaden.

361
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:11,000
I just wanted to thank all of our crews and our employees, our officers for everything that

362
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,960
they did last week on Thursday.

363
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:13,520
Friday.

364
00:33:14,660 --> 00:33:17,800
Also the mayor and council for all of your help.

365
00:33:18,420 --> 00:33:24,420
It's interesting to watch that storm coming and you know when you're watching the trajectory

366
00:33:24,420 --> 00:33:29,520
of it originally it looked like it was supposed to hit right on top of her and then it went

367
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:35,360
around it and then obviously it went to the east instead of hitting us but I felt like

368
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:40,140
our cruise did a wonderful job of getting out there they were out there quick and investigating

369
00:33:40,860 --> 00:33:45,100
checking on stuff trying to get things cleaned up as quick as they can and so I appreciate

370
00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:50,020
everybody's helped there. That was a wonderful turn out of our staff and they did a great job

371
00:33:50,020 --> 00:33:56,400
I felt like and so I just wanted to thank them and our effort, Taden and the Water Department

372
00:33:56,400 --> 00:34:01,340
for getting out there and being so responsive to that. So I don't have that happened very often.

373
00:34:02,780 --> 00:34:05,000
Kind of an interesting experience.

374
00:34:07,060 --> 00:34:12,300
Also our projects continue to march forward with our police

375
00:34:12,300 --> 00:34:21,280
station in our city office. We received word this week that we had applied for a C.I.B. grant

376
00:34:21,860 --> 00:34:28,520
and loan to help in the funding of our two buildings. C.I.B. reached out to us and said they

377
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:35,500
didn't have the money to really fund as much as many items as were submitted. And anyway,

378
00:34:35,580 --> 00:34:39,300
earlier this week they said that they actually ended up having more than what they're expected to

379
00:34:39,300 --> 00:34:44,500
come in, so Mayor doesn't know this yet, but we have a meeting set up for September 3rd

380
00:34:44,500 --> 00:34:51,080
for him and I to go up to Salt Lake and present before them to try to secure more favorable

381
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:57,120
financing than perhaps we can get on the open market to finance these buildings. So I don't

382
00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:02,420
know Mayor if you actually are available on September 3rd, but if not, then we will handle this.

383
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,160
Anyway, presentation before the CIB board, it sounds like they have some money.

384
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:15,040
It likely won't be grant money, but we're hopeful that they would have some money that would be available at a more favorable interest rate

385
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,860
And all we could to get

386
00:35:17,460 --> 00:35:19,980
It was interesting because they sent out a letter to begin with

387
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:27,080
Saying they didn't need to have money when course cities down here in our county since there's no mineral rights and stuff

388
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,880
The oil that they raised that money from kind of a low-end at the state

389
00:35:31,700 --> 00:35:32,660
getting any but

390
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,780
they're asking for some of them to withdraw so they

391
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,700
have it and you know we figured we're probably on the bottom and wouldn't let's

392
00:35:40,700 --> 00:35:44,380
draw and probably as be you when we say now let's make it stick it out let's make

393
00:35:44,380 --> 00:35:48,640
sure that the force of them to have to decide some glad we stayed in yeah

394
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:55,100
yeah on I applaud our our administration finance team page and Brandon for putting a

395
00:35:55,100 --> 00:35:58,040
lot of effort into this I mean it takes a lot of work to try to get some of this

396
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,900
financing in place and so we work hard to try to save the city money hopefully we'll

397
00:36:02,900 --> 00:36:07,480
We'll see something in a couple weeks and I think that's all that I have.

398
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,920
May or unless anybody has anything for me. Okay, Cindy,

399
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,160
Dave, this couple of

400
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:22,840
things we had a power board meeting last week and Mike Jones did a, he has a

401
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:29,720
drone and a flyover or a sub station to kind of identify each apparatus in

402
00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:36,520
substation and also the substation down south what do we call that a litigation

403
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:42,660
substation it's deserts out deserts out deserts out deserts and let's hope in

404
00:36:42,660 --> 00:36:46,920
that maybe you know you can maybe get that together in a short in a short

405
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,900
short version bring it to city council it was really interesting did a good

406
00:36:50,900 --> 00:36:55,220
job on that so it was just his personal drone and some time during that and then

407
00:36:55,220 --> 00:37:02,980
on the MI metering, which is a two-way metering that rolled out a little bit. Kind of a trial

408
00:37:02,980 --> 00:37:06,200
to try to get the communication up and running. It had a few little struggles there, so they

409
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,860
haven't been rolling that out full yet, but they're getting close to be able to do a full

410
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:17,120
implementation of that. So that'll be a good upgrade when we get that going. And then with

411
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:24,300
this event the flood event kind of remember asking so who is our emergency

412
00:37:24,300 --> 00:37:27,680
manager and I don't know that we have an emergency manager in our city right

413
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:32,180
now that's probably something we need to maybe get working on get

414
00:37:32,180 --> 00:37:36,980
practicing a little bit for emergencies in the future although it was probably

415
00:37:36,980 --> 00:37:43,040
it handled really well you know I get one by time I got out there it was probably

416
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:51,500
just 20 minutes in and the guide were cleaning out. I mean it was pretty amazing how we didn't have

417
00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:55,760
any OC open but it was pretty well organized anyway. You know guys were out there working hard

418
00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:00,620
and getting their old open up in a hurry but I just something that we probably need to work on

419
00:38:00,620 --> 00:38:05,860
especially with Super El Nino coming in this winter. You know we may have more issues.

420
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:15,740
So I have.

421
00:38:16,860 --> 00:38:17,380
Thanks Dave.

422
00:38:17,380 --> 00:38:21,620
I have a monthly meeting that I have with the police chief.

423
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:26,220
That's a great experience each time just to visit about issues.

424
00:38:26,780 --> 00:38:28,660
No need for me to really bring up anything.

425
00:38:28,940 --> 00:38:33,460
It's easier and you can raise it that I just wanted to mention.

426
00:38:33,460 --> 00:38:40,560
just how valuable that practice is to just have regular visits with, you know, people that we're

427
00:38:41,210 --> 00:38:50,340
working with. On the flood issue, I did show up for my community service on Sunday afternoon

428
00:38:51,660 --> 00:39:00,160
with my son hoping to engage and I had to talk to two or three people before I could figure out how

429
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:08,400
I can be helpful and I wonder if maybe a little bit of guidance from, I don't know,

430
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:16,460
some way that the city could assist and giving, you know, the well-meaning, well-intending,

431
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:24,860
you know, church volunteer driven effort, some guidance on how to be most effective

432
00:39:24,860 --> 00:39:32,760
to put people to work because it was, I really wanted to engage and I spent

433
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:38,820
a portion of my time trying to figure out how I could engage and then I did

434
00:39:38,820 --> 00:39:47,460
want to inquire also about the status of the, you know, retention over, you know,

435
00:39:47,540 --> 00:39:54,420
at the top. I know we are in process and have funding issues and stuff,

436
00:39:54,420 --> 00:39:57,000
but what's the timeline for rollout of that?

437
00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,400
You got that information from Arthur, didn't you?

438
00:39:59,980 --> 00:40:03,360
Yeah, I can forward some information to you.

439
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:04,480
There's a little flow chart.

440
00:40:04,720 --> 00:40:06,520
I don't know, I'm the right one to,

441
00:40:06,700 --> 00:40:09,480
I can speak to this, but I may not be the most appropriate one.

442
00:40:09,660 --> 00:40:11,460
Mike, I don't know if you want to chime in,

443
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:15,260
but the project as I understand it is a $67 million dollar

444
00:40:15,260 --> 00:40:19,100
project on top of the hill through NRCS.

445
00:40:19,340 --> 00:40:22,000
If we are able to obtain some financing to them,

446
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:29,220
our portion as I understand would be 5 million, that's 67 million. The comment

447
00:40:29,220 --> 00:40:35,420
period I believe, I think we're still in the comment period. I think they finished

448
00:40:35,420 --> 00:40:40,380
the comment. We're in the comment period but I think they had closed it in May. We

449
00:40:40,380 --> 00:40:44,720
have some new maps that are out that we can forward to you as a council so you can

450
00:40:44,720 --> 00:40:53,240
see some of that. I think they call it a ROD right of decision, record of decision,

451
00:40:53,920 --> 00:41:01,080
record of decision, I think once that comes out and they approve of it then it goes

452
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:07,980
to a final design stage which would likely be seen another year on that and once

453
00:41:07,980 --> 00:41:12,360
that's done if the financing is approved through NRCS then it's a build time so I

454
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:17,280
you're probably, you could still be another three, four years. I think 2031 is

455
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:21,840
what Arthur estimated would be a completion date, optimal completion date on

456
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:26,900
that. So it tells that it would be, there's a retention area and it controls the

457
00:41:26,900 --> 00:41:32,780
water flow that comes out and even dry detention basin there. Yeah, with it.

458
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,140
Just have a run for three or four days rather than three or four hours.

459
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:41,740
Get the same

460
00:41:41,740 --> 00:41:54,480
I asked Carthler if that project was on the list when we did our fees for drainage and he said no, so that five millions not part of what we did for raising that rating.

461
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,600
So anyway,

462
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:13,840
just a couple of things I to want to echo everybody else I I was out there

463
00:42:14,820 --> 00:42:21,340
Thanks to councilman Emley he called me and he says what are you doing being a slacker and I mean

464
00:42:21,340 --> 00:42:25,700
I was just home buttering had no idea watching a little rain in my backyard thinking it was cool

465
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:32,600
But what out? Very proud of all of our departments. They were working very hard, coordinating together.

466
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:45,220
I mean, it didn't matter where you went, there was, I mean, it was just solid trying to get our infrastructure back running again, trying to get things to where people could still move.

467
00:42:46,300 --> 00:42:53,740
And police department did an awesome job protecting the scenes so that the workers could work.

468
00:42:53,740 --> 00:42:59,200
work. It was great. I just want to thank all of them. I want to thank the Mayor, the

469
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:05,020
Council, Caden, for all your hard work down there too. I mean, it was awesome to see.

470
00:43:05,720 --> 00:43:11,220
And once again, our community came together as they always do. You know, we've always

471
00:43:11,220 --> 00:43:15,860
looked at this and said the reason Hurricane gets through events is because of what our

472
00:43:15,860 --> 00:43:21,880
citizens do and our citizens came together and they've been working literally every day

473
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:29,260
trying to get people back to some level of normalcy but that was awesome. On the

474
00:43:29,260 --> 00:43:34,100
other things we had a mosquito abatement board meeting that's most exciting

475
00:43:34,100 --> 00:43:38,740
thing on earth but it's kind of interesting because with all the rain and

476
00:43:38,740 --> 00:43:44,540
the weather and standing water and everything else we have that several cases of

477
00:43:44,540 --> 00:43:51,160
West Nile virus down here, but to be honest, none of them are reported in

478
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:57,480
hurricane. Most of the most of the West Nile virus cases are in St.

479
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:03,320
George and Washington. There has been a couple reported in other places on

480
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:07,900
these sites, but absolutely not in hurricane. The one big thing of it is it's not

481
00:44:07,900 --> 00:44:13,840
been transferred to humans. They have had a lot of issue with livestock, and my

482
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:18,560
understanding based on what I was told at the meeting is that if a mosquito with

483
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:23,740
West Nile bites infects a horse, likelihood if the horse has not been inoculated

484
00:44:23,740 --> 00:44:29,220
it'll kill it. So that was kind of interesting to know I had no idea what that

485
00:44:29,220 --> 00:44:33,060
would happen. But they're working very diligently if you see anywhere that's

486
00:44:33,060 --> 00:44:40,500
got standing water. They said you know literally half a cup of water sitting out

487
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:46,060
and mosquitoes can breed and move on. So it doesn't take big bodies of water it

488
00:44:46,060 --> 00:44:53,060
just takes water and so I mean I have to say you know thanks Mayor for putting

489
00:44:53,060 --> 00:44:57,720
me to assign me to this because I've walked around my house dumped out buckets

490
00:44:57,720 --> 00:44:59,800
that I've had sitting out there for literally

491
00:45:00,750 --> 00:45:30,610
Just to try to protect for some of this going on. But the crews down there are working really hard. They're out every day. Their staff has built up. They've actually done more calls this year than ever in history. So, but they are, they are open. If you ever, if you have a problem, if you have mosquitoes in your yard, I have to call their office. They'll send a team out. They'll check it. They'll trap them. And if you've got an issue, they'll

492
00:45:30,610 --> 00:45:38,210
try to do their very best to kill the larvae before they even hatch. So it's really a good program they've got going down there.

493
00:45:39,030 --> 00:45:39,850
That's all I've got.

494
00:45:41,030 --> 00:45:41,450
Thanks a lot.

495
00:45:42,110 --> 00:45:44,830
As I've watched, that was cute.

496
00:45:45,310 --> 00:45:52,410
A few dollars you actually pay. I think it's the best money you spend on the attacks as if any other dollar goes a long ways.

497
00:45:52,610 --> 00:45:55,190
And I can remember before they did that where you'd go out.

498
00:45:55,190 --> 00:45:57,810
and some nights you didn't even want to be outside.

499
00:45:57,810 --> 00:46:00,490
Now you can go out and hardly have a mosquito out there.

500
00:46:00,710 --> 00:46:03,530
So it's been really well done, so I appreciate that.

501
00:46:03,530 --> 00:46:03,950
That's true.

502
00:46:04,090 --> 00:46:05,850
When I was much younger and in better shape,

503
00:46:05,850 --> 00:46:07,630
I used to ride bike and jog out south,

504
00:46:08,110 --> 00:46:09,890
and you couldn't go out anywhere near the fields

505
00:46:09,890 --> 00:46:10,730
without being nailed.

506
00:46:11,590 --> 00:46:13,270
And I have to honestly say,

507
00:46:13,450 --> 00:46:14,950
well, I think I'm taste bad,

508
00:46:15,130 --> 00:46:17,390
but I haven't been bit by a mosquito in years.

509
00:46:19,070 --> 00:46:19,470
Yeah.

510
00:46:20,310 --> 00:46:20,710
Jamie?

511
00:46:21,770 --> 00:46:24,970
Yeah, I have a couple of things to like everyone else.

512
00:46:25,190 --> 00:46:32,530
Um, I'm just, I was able to go to some service Saturday afternoon in, in that area that was

513
00:46:32,530 --> 00:46:38,050
affected. And I was just so impressed again with on Friday, how efficient everyone was with

514
00:46:38,050 --> 00:46:44,170
cleaning it up. And, and also, um, just the whole community coming together and just giving

515
00:46:44,170 --> 00:46:49,250
another time. And especially local businesses, while I was there, pizza was getting dropped off,

516
00:46:49,390 --> 00:46:54,050
hamburgers were getting dropped off. Someone donated a bunch of buckets. So I'm just so impressed

517
00:46:54,050 --> 00:47:01,310
with just the whole community for it. That happened from that flood. A couple

518
00:47:01,310 --> 00:47:07,410
of other things, I did have someone ask me about if Hurricane's going to get

519
00:47:07,410 --> 00:47:10,330
any electric vehicle charging stations.

520
00:47:15,340 --> 00:47:22,120
I believe we have conduits. I don't know

521
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,100
of any private ones, but I believe we have conduits run

522
00:47:25,100 --> 00:47:30,060
at the Fort Court Gym, the city office police station,

523
00:47:30,060 --> 00:47:31,220
that we have planned down here.

524
00:47:31,220 --> 00:47:34,280
We do have planned conduits in that project

525
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,560
that we admittedly, when we've looked into some of this,

526
00:47:37,620 --> 00:47:40,060
it's pretty price, unless you can get Tesla to come

527
00:47:40,060 --> 00:47:40,840
and just put them in.

528
00:47:41,060 --> 00:47:41,260
Right.

529
00:47:41,820 --> 00:47:45,740
So we at least wanted to have the conduit ran,

530
00:47:45,820 --> 00:47:47,200
and then I guess we'd have to work with Mike

531
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:50,640
and see if that's something that we can do ourselves,

532
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:56,920
but at least from the city standpoint, we have some of the words to take a little bit.

533
00:47:57,140 --> 00:48:03,020
Yeah, we need to do a lot on that actually because the amount of power that charging stations draw,

534
00:48:03,060 --> 00:48:08,900
especially super charging stations is what would blow your mind. So some of the Tesla super charging

535
00:48:08,900 --> 00:48:14,020
stations I've been involved with in the past, we've had to revamp and rebuild entire substations to

536
00:48:14,020 --> 00:48:18,600
make them work. So they draw an enormous amount of power. So there's a lot more to it than just

537
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:23,580
then just post them up and send in different places. There's a lot that's got to happen for that.

538
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:28,240
Yeah, it was just someone who said, I can't find anywhere to charge my car when I'm, you know,

539
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:37,780
come through. So yeah, interesting. And then another person approached me saying that they do

540
00:48:37,780 --> 00:48:45,120
12-step meetings in the museum, but their space is, they're starting to get really busy and full,

541
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:50,900
and they're wondering if there's any other places that those could be held with

542
00:48:53,270 --> 00:48:55,570
more space or more availability.

543
00:48:57,090 --> 00:49:03,150
So just something to consider. And then where are we out with our new chair for

544
00:49:03,150 --> 00:49:12,970
a historic preservation committee? No, where? Okay. I got to get that. Sorry. That's okay. I know

545
00:49:12,970 --> 00:49:17,430
you've been a little busy so and then finally I'm just curious on these town

546
00:49:17,430 --> 00:49:22,550
halls if we're gonna get some more direction as far as we are we are only got

547
00:49:22,550 --> 00:49:25,950
the only information I got was from you for anything that nobody else

548
00:49:25,950 --> 00:49:29,350
submitted to me anything I did write down some things that I thought we might

549
00:49:29,350 --> 00:49:34,230
out of go and I'll put that together so we'll have it for our next meeting to

550
00:49:34,230 --> 00:49:38,910
go over and then we can make any adjustments to it we want to I'm not gonna write

551
00:49:38,910 --> 00:49:44,590
up for a bit probably just different line items so you can just kind of talk

552
00:49:44,590 --> 00:49:49,010
about them and whatever else with it but yeah I'll have something by next meeting.

553
00:49:50,090 --> 00:49:54,370
I'll send it out to you before the meeting so you can see if anybody has

554
00:49:54,370 --> 00:49:59,730
anything else that they feel like makes to be in there. Let me know and get them

555
00:49:59,730 --> 00:50:02,270
done. So coming up and hurry.

556
00:50:03,030 --> 00:50:09,670
morning. Yeah I'd just like to again echo what everybody I think everybody

557
00:50:09,670 --> 00:50:13,390
for what they did during the floods went out on Friday and then again on Sunday.

558
00:50:14,410 --> 00:50:20,290
Sunday was pretty busy I know that the North State went to church and they

559
00:50:20,290 --> 00:50:23,770
let everybody out and they kind of come in groups as they got out of church and

560
00:50:24,250 --> 00:50:29,050
a lot of stuff got done I know that day it just looked like a swarm of ants

561
00:50:29,050 --> 00:50:33,210
every where my biggest concern was the big loader in the street that was a

562
00:50:33,210 --> 00:50:37,730
little scary coming from my background I just thought probably should add a spot

563
00:50:37,730 --> 00:50:41,730
or somebody there but a lot of stuff got down and nobody got hurt so that was

564
00:50:41,730 --> 00:50:48,150
good and that was private it wasn't anything to the city had my first

565
00:50:48,150 --> 00:50:52,270
airport meeting this week we're gonna be talking about one of those one of the

566
00:50:52,270 --> 00:50:57,690
things on the items tonight I believe we're talking about at least on one of the

567
00:50:57,690 --> 00:50:58,930
spots out there.

568
00:51:01,430 --> 00:51:08,270
Had a good turnout, learning a lot out with that. There's more than, you know,

569
00:51:08,370 --> 00:51:10,850
you think of just the airport, there wouldn't be much to say, but there's quite a

570
00:51:10,850 --> 00:51:16,370
lot of stuff, quite a few things going on. Fast to be on the committee is we get ready to put out

571
00:51:16,370 --> 00:51:24,390
the RFP, what do you say we got for the new hire. And so I'll sit on that committee as we get ready

572
00:51:24,390 --> 00:51:30,730
for that, that higher for that. We'll be going to my first meeting next Thursday for Ash Creek,

573
00:51:31,390 --> 00:51:36,610
so have that, have something to report on the next meeting there. And I saw this golf tournament,

574
00:51:37,130 --> 00:51:44,830
time over the golf course, working with them. I would like to go out and volunteer, and maybe

575
00:51:45,810 --> 00:51:50,890
make sure everything runs smooth. Last time I golfed I swore too much, so I quit coughing.

576
00:51:52,570 --> 00:51:57,310
So I'd like to pick it up again, but I don't know that that's a proper place to start.

577
00:51:59,850 --> 00:52:01,970
Yeah, so I said I haven't gone for a long time.

578
00:52:02,470 --> 00:52:09,510
So anyway, I'll talk to Sol on that and see what I can, how I can help there on that

579
00:52:09,510 --> 00:52:09,810
tournament.

580
00:52:10,810 --> 00:52:11,030
Good.

581
00:52:11,490 --> 00:52:12,250
So I've got Super.

582
00:52:13,030 --> 00:52:13,570
Thanks, Murin.

583
00:52:14,210 --> 00:52:20,310
I had a lot of good comments about the selection of Council member, so a lot of support

584
00:52:20,310 --> 00:52:28,790
that way and from that. I want to make one comment that kind of relates to the whole the whole

585
00:52:28,790 --> 00:52:36,850
blood. I had one of the individuals say you know it's we uh FEMA gets going on some of these

586
00:52:36,850 --> 00:52:42,110
other areas and people stand around waiting for FEMA to show up and and over here and by the time

587
00:52:42,110 --> 00:52:47,430
FEMA get here we'd be done so that's kind of the way it works with us a lot of good people out there

588
00:52:47,430 --> 00:52:53,690
that her work can help. And we'll do an after-action on it. And yeah, it's part of some

589
00:52:53,690 --> 00:52:58,350
emergency management. You always have somebody that's over the wall on tears and stuff.

590
00:52:58,710 --> 00:53:03,290
I don't know how you quite coordinate that because people show up on the side all the time and

591
00:53:03,290 --> 00:53:07,930
just start jumping in and doing stuff. So I don't know how you get them all to work through that.

592
00:53:08,050 --> 00:53:13,370
But that's some process we do need to get and work at because a lot of them are good.

593
00:53:16,970 --> 00:53:17,410
But

594
00:53:17,410 --> 00:53:23,370
see you have damage and whatever else and just kind of being present. There are a lot of people

595
00:53:23,370 --> 00:53:26,890
out there working but they're kind of on top of each other. I think they've done a lot more

596
00:53:26,890 --> 00:53:32,470
of footage, had a little more direction in it but they had a lot of people working. So if you had

597
00:53:32,470 --> 00:53:40,210
like an information booth, here's where you go and check in. These are the 12 houses we're working on,

598
00:53:40,430 --> 00:53:44,430
pick one. Yeah. That would have something would have been helpful. Yeah, I'm like, so that's one of

599
00:53:44,430 --> 00:53:49,110
the things we can put in a raft or action and try to see what we can do planning for the future.

600
00:53:50,710 --> 00:53:57,130
I've been trying to do an activity with the mayor with the citizens during every month and

601
00:53:57,710 --> 00:54:03,690
haven't been that successful but the one I'm going to do on Saturday, I put together, I've got,

602
00:54:04,230 --> 00:54:09,910
well I was striving for 40 on these things and I've got 37 of them done at the tune of about,

603
00:54:09,910 --> 00:54:14,390
probably two to three hours a piece and these are the little frames I'm gonna have

604
00:54:14,390 --> 00:54:19,450
the seeds down there with the kids on Saturday to have them come and and put the

605
00:54:19,450 --> 00:54:24,690
seeds in these and then we will store them I'll put them up on one of those

606
00:54:24,690 --> 00:54:31,150
cans that we do with regular seed displays and from the cities that we'll have

607
00:54:31,150 --> 00:54:35,690
down there and display these along with with those so I hope we get a bunch of

608
00:54:35,690 --> 00:54:41,930
kids and some adults and stuff with that. I said I've got to start getting some, get

609
00:54:41,930 --> 00:54:45,550
some of these kids. It's getting really super charged so they can get excited about that

610
00:54:45,550 --> 00:54:49,550
because one of these days I'm not going to be around. Somebody's got to carry it on,

611
00:54:49,550 --> 00:54:55,890
so I keep that tradition going. But I think we'll have fun. Hopefully we'll have a good

612
00:54:55,890 --> 00:55:00,850
group of kids down there. I've heard some pretty good things about it. So we'll see what

613
00:55:00,850 --> 00:55:07,030
what comes and the more welcome come down see what's going on if you want but you don't

614
00:55:07,030 --> 00:55:13,830
can't that's fighting to but we find to be there so other than that what was your time

615
00:55:13,830 --> 00:55:20,170
on that it's at 10 o'clock anyway let's go ahead and take a break for just about 10 minutes

616
00:55:20,170 --> 00:55:21,870
and we'll be ready to get started so
