1
00:00:00,100 --> 00:00:01,159
Okay, I would like to

2
00:00:01,159 --> 00:00:02,457
call the

3
00:00:02,457 --> 00:00:03,789
Planning Commission meeting to order

4
00:00:03,789 --> 00:00:04,657
at 7:00 p.m. Let us

5
00:00:04,657 --> 00:00:05,793
rise for the Pledge of

6
00:00:05,793 --> 00:00:22,942
Allegiance. Okay, uh,

7
00:00:22,942 --> 00:00:23,946
Jennifer, would

8
00:00:23,946 --> 00:00:25,184
you like to call a

9
00:00:25,184 --> 00:00:26,054
vote?

10
00:00:26,054 --> 00:00:27,357
I will announce. Doug

11
00:00:27,357 --> 00:00:28,279
Newaker. We

12
00:00:28,279 --> 00:00:29,438
are going to postpone

13
00:00:29,438 --> 00:00:30,234
this meeting.

14
00:00:30,234 --> 00:00:31,109
I just saw him

15
00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:31,985
coming back, but if

16
00:00:31,985 --> 00:00:32,860
you want, read

17
00:00:32,860 --> 00:00:33,560
him last.

18
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:34,699
Katie Westmoreland.

19
00:00:34,699 --> 00:00:35,090
Here.

20
00:00:35,090 --> 00:00:36,540
Jennifer Swagger is here.

21
00:00:36,540 --> 00:00:37,917
Michelle Westmoreland.

22
00:00:37,917 --> 00:00:38,793
Here.

23
00:00:38,793 --> 00:00:40,389
And Lori Zellner.

24
00:00:40,389 --> 00:00:40,802
Here.

25
00:00:40,802 --> 00:00:42,380
And Doug just walked in.

26
00:00:42,380 --> 00:00:43,391
We also have a

27
00:00:43,391 --> 00:00:44,667
typo here.

28
00:00:44,667 --> 00:00:46,317
Oh, thanks for noticing

29
00:00:46,317 --> 00:00:47,944
that. Good. Can I

30
00:00:47,944 --> 00:00:49,097
get a motion

31
00:00:49,097 --> 00:00:51,253
to approve the minutes of the

32
00:00:51,283 --> 00:00:52,467
Planning Commission meeting

33
00:00:52,467 --> 00:00:54,744
of January 15, 2025?

34
00:00:54,744 --> 00:00:56,069
Oh, Doug will love

35
00:00:56,069 --> 00:00:58,317
this offer. Good. Does

36
00:00:58,317 --> 00:00:59,697
anyone want a second

37
00:00:59,697 --> 00:01:01,235
on the January 2nd motion

38
00:01:01,235 --> 00:01:02,772
regarding the

39
00:01:02,772 --> 00:01:08,920
January 15th minutes?

40
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,937
I support.

41
00:01:12,937 --> 00:01:15,211
Okay, everyone in favor?

42
00:01:15,211 --> 00:01:18,039
The proposal is accepted.

43
00:01:18,039 --> 00:01:19,220
Okay, next, can I

44
00:01:19,220 --> 00:01:20,372
have a motion

45
00:01:20,372 --> 00:01:21,402
to approve the

46
00:01:21,402 --> 00:01:22,311
agenda for tonight

47
00:01:22,311 --> 00:01:27,295
?

48
00:01:27,295 --> 00:01:28,566
I am making a motion

49
00:01:28,566 --> 00:01:29,801
to approve the

50
00:01:29,801 --> 00:01:30,891
agenda for

51
00:01:30,891 --> 00:01:31,944
today's

52
00:01:31,944 --> 00:01:32,744
meeting in

53
00:01:32,744 --> 00:01:34,043
writing. Are there

54
00:01:34,043 --> 00:01:35,589
any comments? I

55
00:01:35,589 --> 00:01:37,307
support. Good.

56
00:01:37,307 --> 00:01:40,687
I support. OK.

57
00:01:40,687 --> 00:01:43,015
All in favor? The proposal

58
00:01:43,015 --> 00:01:44,699
is accepted. Okay, at

59
00:01:44,699 --> 00:01:45,933
this point I would like to

60
00:01:45,933 --> 00:01:46,842
ask if

61
00:01:46,842 --> 00:01:48,109
we would like to have a public

62
00:01:48,109 --> 00:01:49,375
discussion, but it looks like

63
00:01:49,375 --> 00:01:50,447
we only have our

64
00:01:50,447 --> 00:01:54,794
speaker. So, we

65
00:01:54,794 --> 00:01:55,898
will move on to new

66
00:01:55,898 --> 00:01:57,329
things. Um, our

67
00:01:57,329 --> 00:01:58,201
first item on the

68
00:01:58,201 --> 00:01:59,416
agenda is that

69
00:01:59,416 --> 00:02:00,163
I would like to

70
00:02:00,163 --> 00:02:01,160
welcome our

71
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,188
new

72
00:02:02,188 --> 00:02:03,278
Planning Commissioner, Michelle

73
00:02:03,278 --> 00:02:04,737
Westmoreland. Thank you for

74
00:02:04,737 --> 00:02:05,941
being part of

75
00:02:05,941 --> 00:02:07,481
our group. We really

76
00:02:07,481 --> 00:02:09,923
appreciate it. Good. Hmm, the

77
00:02:09,923 --> 00:02:10,971
next item on the

78
00:02:10,971 --> 00:02:11,988
agenda is to

79
00:02:11,988 --> 00:02:12,789
review the

80
00:02:12,789 --> 00:02:13,990
site plan for Addison

81
00:02:13,990 --> 00:02:14,976
Township Fire Station

82
00:02:14,976 --> 00:02:15,896
#1. Hmm, the

83
00:02:15,896 --> 00:02:16,879
suggested

84
00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:17,996
training period.

85
00:02:17,996 --> 00:02:19,325
Sorry.

86
00:02:19,325 --> 00:02:20,187
Proposed

87
00:02:20,187 --> 00:02:21,375
training ground

88
00:02:21,375 --> 00:02:22,297
and planning on the

89
00:02:22,297 --> 00:02:23,189
east side of

90
00:02:23,189 --> 00:02:24,626
the site. As a reminder

91
00:02:24,626 --> 00:02:26,428
for the record, the

92
00:02:26,456 --> 00:02:27,414
Planning Commission's consideration is strictly

93
00:02:27,414 --> 00:02:28,456
based on our

94
00:02:28,456 --> 00:02:29,920
local

95
00:02:29,948 --> 00:02:30,741
zoning ordinance. This

96
00:02:30,741 --> 00:02:32,037
applies to

97
00:02:32,068 --> 00:02:33,306
site planning standards.

98
00:02:33,306 --> 00:02:34,494
The applicant remains

99
00:02:34,494 --> 00:02:34,901
solely

100
00:02:34,901 --> 00:02:36,090
responsible for

101
00:02:36,090 --> 00:02:36,903
determining and

102
00:02:36,903 --> 00:02:38,061
obtaining any

103
00:02:38,061 --> 00:02:39,281
independent permits

104
00:02:39,281 --> 00:02:40,438
required by the county,

105
00:02:40,438 --> 00:02:41,064
state, or

106
00:02:41,064 --> 00:02:41,721
external

107
00:02:41,721 --> 00:02:43,401
organizations. So,

108
00:02:43,401 --> 00:02:44,407
um, I guess now I'd

109
00:02:44,407 --> 00:02:45,445
like to ask

110
00:02:45,445 --> 00:02:46,608
Chief Moraschi

111
00:02:46,608 --> 00:02:47,583
if you'd like to

112
00:02:47,583 --> 00:02:48,149
stand up and

113
00:02:48,149 --> 00:02:49,375
present your

114
00:02:49,375 --> 00:02:49,884
project to us.

115
00:02:49,884 --> 00:02:51,508
Thank you for coming.

116
00:02:51,508 --> 00:02:53,280
We'll do it quickly

117
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,173
because the lines are at 8:30. There are

118
00:02:56,173 --> 00:02:57,531
no queues. So, as you

119
00:02:57,531 --> 00:02:58,640
guys know, our

120
00:02:58,640 --> 00:02:59,628
fire department doesn't

121
00:02:59,628 --> 00:03:00,796
run on the village

122
00:03:00,796 --> 00:03:01,784
water supply, I

123
00:03:01,784 --> 00:03:02,933
missed that, sorry.

124
00:03:02,933 --> 00:03:04,091
Municipal

125
00:03:04,091 --> 00:03:05,263
water system, right?

126
00:03:05,263 --> 00:03:06,054
We work on a

127
00:03:06,054 --> 00:03:07,109
rural

128
00:03:07,109 --> 00:03:08,401
water source. We truck

129
00:03:08,401 --> 00:03:09,578
all our water

130
00:03:09,578 --> 00:03:10,916
to the fire. Something very

131
00:03:10,916 --> 00:03:12,202
complicated. Unfortunately, we

132
00:03:12,202 --> 00:03:13,158
have to

133
00:03:13,158 --> 00:03:14,283
practice a lot to be

134
00:03:14,283 --> 00:03:15,240
good at it,

135
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:15,983
right? Therefore, we

136
00:03:15,983 --> 00:03:17,014
need to have a place

137
00:03:17,014 --> 00:03:18,170
to train. And if

138
00:03:18,170 --> 00:03:18,969
you guys ever

139
00:03:18,969 --> 00:03:19,906
drive

140
00:03:19,906 --> 00:03:20,980
by on a Wednesday night

141
00:03:20,980 --> 00:03:21,724
, you've seen all the

142
00:03:21,724 --> 00:03:22,826
trucks out front, and

143
00:03:22,826 --> 00:03:24,369
we're working on our

144
00:03:24,396 --> 00:03:25,443
water system, and we're

145
00:03:25,443 --> 00:03:26,380
simulating driveways,

146
00:03:26,380 --> 00:03:28,672
that's what we do, right?

147
00:03:28,702 --> 00:03:29,909
We pick up all our

148
00:03:29,909 --> 00:03:31,123
cars in the front parking lot. We drive

149
00:03:31,123 --> 00:03:32,649
up and down there, and we

150
00:03:32,649 --> 00:03:35,460
simulate it being something like a

151
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:37,106
400-foot driveway, or

152
00:03:37,106 --> 00:03:38,712
200 feet, or 1,000 feet long,

153
00:03:38,712 --> 00:03:41,123
right? We can

154
00:03:41,123 --> 00:03:42,143
move these

155
00:03:42,143 --> 00:03:43,197
components around when

156
00:03:43,197 --> 00:03:44,489
we get to the situation,

157
00:03:44,489 --> 00:03:46,952
right? So, with that in mind

158
00:03:46,952 --> 00:03:48,110
, we thought about the

159
00:03:48,110 --> 00:03:49,202
backyard of our

160
00:03:49,202 --> 00:03:50,372
station. I call

161
00:03:50,372 --> 00:03:51,520
it the backyard,

162
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:52,784
right? By department

163
00:03:52,784 --> 00:03:53,772
. And you were all there to

164
00:03:53,772 --> 00:03:54,603
watch on

165
00:03:54,603 --> 00:03:55,507
Wednesday, on Wednesday.

166
00:03:55,507 --> 00:03:56,936
Sorry. I wasn't there

167
00:03:56,936 --> 00:03:58,234
. I was at another

168
00:03:58,234 --> 00:03:59,451
meeting. What we

169
00:03:59,451 --> 00:04:00,588
want to do is

170
00:04:00,588 --> 00:04:01,691
if you see that

171
00:04:01,691 --> 00:04:02,661
the slope drops off very sharply

172
00:04:02,661 --> 00:04:03,731
, we

173
00:04:03,731 --> 00:04:04,868
want to put

174
00:04:04,868 --> 00:04:06,005
some kind of filter there

175
00:04:06,005 --> 00:04:06,908
to be able to

176
00:04:06,908 --> 00:04:08,045
simulate an approach

177
00:04:08,045 --> 00:04:09,383
so that we can

178
00:04:09,383 --> 00:04:10,687
practice from behind

179
00:04:10,687 --> 00:04:11,757
instead of

180
00:04:11,757 --> 00:04:12,927
destroying the asphalt,

181
00:04:12,927 --> 00:04:14,572
right? Now, in front.

182
00:04:14,572 --> 00:04:15,703
So, we came up with this

183
00:04:15,703 --> 00:04:16,776
idea, and I apologize

184
00:04:16,776 --> 00:04:17,791
for how

185
00:04:17,791 --> 00:04:18,487
crude it is, but we're

186
00:04:18,487 --> 00:04:19,589
trying to do

187
00:04:19,589 --> 00:04:20,746
it inexpensively, right? But

188
00:04:20,746 --> 00:04:21,814
our city has a lot of

189
00:04:21,814 --> 00:04:22,882
taxpayers, and

190
00:04:22,882 --> 00:04:23,362
we want to

191
00:04:23,362 --> 00:04:24,190
make sure

192
00:04:24,190 --> 00:04:25,204
we're using our

193
00:04:25,204 --> 00:04:26,219
money in the best possible way,

194
00:04:26,219 --> 00:04:27,444
right? So we put

195
00:04:27,444 --> 00:04:28,625
some things together and

196
00:04:28,625 --> 00:04:29,459
thought, well,

197
00:04:29,459 --> 00:04:30,925
wait a minute.

198
00:04:30,925 --> 00:04:33,327
We have a pond there. If

199
00:04:33,327 --> 00:04:34,313
we make it

200
00:04:34,313 --> 00:04:35,401
slope down to the pond,

201
00:04:35,401 --> 00:04:36,455
fill it in, and

202
00:04:36,455 --> 00:04:37,713
build a driveway there,

203
00:04:37,713 --> 00:04:38,325
we can

204
00:04:38,325 --> 00:04:39,549
use that

205
00:04:39,549 --> 00:04:40,841
as our imitation for the

206
00:04:40,841 --> 00:04:42,391
driveway, right? So, that's where

207
00:04:42,391 --> 00:04:43,120
I am

208
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,335
today, and

209
00:04:44,335 --> 00:04:45,520
I've brought some things up for the

210
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:46,249
board of

211
00:04:46,249 --> 00:04:47,384
directors to consider. If there are

212
00:04:47,384 --> 00:04:48,542
any questions about

213
00:04:48,542 --> 00:04:49,701
the project, I would like to

214
00:04:49,701 --> 00:04:50,793
answer them

215
00:04:50,793 --> 00:04:52,577
now.

216
00:04:52,577 --> 00:04:55,080
Perfectly. Perfectly. Do you

217
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,000
have any questions? Do

218
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,273
you have a deadline for when you

219
00:05:00,273 --> 00:05:02,847
will start and finish?

220
00:05:02,847 --> 00:05:04,218
Hopefully, if this

221
00:05:04,218 --> 00:05:05,361
is approved, I'll

222
00:05:05,361 --> 00:05:06,732
call

223
00:05:06,732 --> 00:05:08,778
people tomorrow. I want to start

224
00:05:08,778 --> 00:05:10,918
work before winter, right? And

225
00:05:10,918 --> 00:05:12,191
then, um, put

226
00:05:12,191 --> 00:05:13,100
gravel in there and

227
00:05:13,100 --> 00:05:14,519
leave it for the winter

228
00:05:14,519 --> 00:05:15,319
, um, and then

229
00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:16,790
continue. Yes,

230
00:05:16,790 --> 00:05:18,648
as soon as possible. I've already,

231
00:05:18,648 --> 00:05:19,917
um, prepared the land

232
00:05:19,917 --> 00:05:21,086
for free, um, they're

233
00:05:21,086 --> 00:05:22,322
delivering it, but

234
00:05:22,322 --> 00:05:23,658
unfortunately I'm going to have to

235
00:05:23,658 --> 00:05:24,827
hire a bulldozer

236
00:05:24,827 --> 00:05:25,462
to

237
00:05:25,462 --> 00:05:26,598
move it all, right?

238
00:05:26,598 --> 00:05:27,718
So, this is where we

239
00:05:27,718 --> 00:05:28,982
are. That's what

240
00:05:28,982 --> 00:05:30,285
I'm on. So, as soon as possible

241
00:05:30,285 --> 00:05:31,372
...Answer

242
00:05:31,372 --> 00:05:32,585
your question. I

243
00:05:32,585 --> 00:05:34,049
know it's long.

244
00:05:34,049 --> 00:05:35,227
The answer: "As soon as possible

245
00:05:35,227 --> 00:05:36,620
." As

246
00:05:36,620 --> 00:05:38,507
soon as possible.

247
00:05:38,507 --> 00:05:39,933
That's good.

248
00:05:39,933 --> 00:05:41,132
I don't have a question,

249
00:05:41,132 --> 00:05:42,398
but I checked the

250
00:05:42,398 --> 00:05:43,290
FEMA website. I don't think I

251
00:05:43,290 --> 00:05:44,267
agree with you that

252
00:05:44,267 --> 00:05:45,168
these are not wetlands

253
00:05:45,168 --> 00:05:45,594
.

254
00:05:45,594 --> 00:05:47,283
Yes, that's how it is now. Aha.

255
00:05:47,283 --> 00:05:48,782
Just because I could, that's why

256
00:05:48,782 --> 00:05:49,229
.

257
00:05:49,229 --> 00:05:50,787
Yes. And what was that pond

258
00:05:50,787 --> 00:05:52,408
...we dug it out

259
00:05:52,408 --> 00:05:53,571
when we were building the

260
00:05:53,571 --> 00:05:55,233
station in 2004. To

261
00:05:55,233 --> 00:05:56,705
provide water to

262
00:05:56,705 --> 00:05:57,578
someone who had a

263
00:05:57,578 --> 00:05:58,545
water source for

264
00:05:58,545 --> 00:05:59,575
our station for

265
00:05:59,575 --> 00:06:00,729
this training and the

266
00:06:00,729 --> 00:06:01,509
surrounding

267
00:06:01,509 --> 00:06:03,042
area, right? So

268
00:06:03,042 --> 00:06:04,102
this dry hydrant

269
00:06:04,102 --> 00:06:05,387
is used for

270
00:06:05,387 --> 00:06:06,033
fires.

271
00:06:06,033 --> 00:06:06,680
A.

272
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:07,788
In this area.

273
00:06:07,788 --> 00:06:08,355
Good.

274
00:06:08,355 --> 00:06:09,400
Behind the station.

275
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,700
So, um, I was looking at

276
00:06:10,700 --> 00:06:12,071
your elevation map that

277
00:06:12,071 --> 00:06:13,406
you have, your current

278
00:06:13,406 --> 00:06:14,707
elevation, and then your

279
00:06:14,707 --> 00:06:16,077
proposed elevation

280
00:06:16,077 --> 00:06:19,628
. And, um, my question

281
00:06:19,628 --> 00:06:20,768
is: can you

282
00:06:20,768 --> 00:06:22,011
guarantee that, um, the

283
00:06:22,011 --> 00:06:23,047
learning drain

284
00:06:23,047 --> 00:06:24,393
stays in place

285
00:06:24,393 --> 00:06:25,774
and doesn't move onto

286
00:06:25,774 --> 00:06:27,052
other, um,

287
00:06:27,052 --> 00:06:29,302
other people's property?

288
00:06:29,302 --> 00:06:30,386
Yes, um, good

289
00:06:30,386 --> 00:06:31,949
question. Yes, we

290
00:06:31,949 --> 00:06:33,334
do this because I want

291
00:06:33,334 --> 00:06:34,683
this water to drain

292
00:06:34,683 --> 00:06:36,390
into the pond, right? And so that we

293
00:06:36,390 --> 00:06:37,432
can provide

294
00:06:37,432 --> 00:06:38,598
ourselves with a source of water for the

295
00:06:38,598 --> 00:06:39,901
tide, right? And also

296
00:06:39,901 --> 00:06:41,118
use this in

297
00:06:41,118 --> 00:06:42,381
our modeling.

298
00:06:42,381 --> 00:06:43,918
So we guarantee

299
00:06:43,918 --> 00:06:45,164
that, as you can see, the

300
00:06:45,164 --> 00:06:46,411
slopes there, um, we

301
00:06:46,411 --> 00:06:48,031
took, um, the topography

302
00:06:48,031 --> 00:06:49,153
from the internet and

303
00:06:49,153 --> 00:06:50,773
drew it, and it

304
00:06:50,773 --> 00:06:51,853
goes from

305
00:06:51,853 --> 00:06:53,017
about 991 to the

306
00:06:53,017 --> 00:06:54,346
pond and up to

307
00:06:54,346 --> 00:06:55,509
about 9, um, at

308
00:06:55,509 --> 00:06:56,988
the top. I think it's a

309
00:06:56,988 --> 00:06:58,185
thousand. I just

310
00:06:58,185 --> 00:06:59,322
think it's about 8

311
00:06:59,322 --> 00:07:00,700
feet or no, sorry,

312
00:07:00,700 --> 00:07:02,007
6 feet, hmm, difference.

313
00:07:02,007 --> 00:07:02,797
We're going to

314
00:07:02,797 --> 00:07:03,892
take this down to the

315
00:07:03,892 --> 00:07:04,388
pond.

316
00:07:04,388 --> 00:07:06,107
Good. There will be a

317
00:07:06,107 --> 00:07:07,528
small, um, ledge,

318
00:07:07,528 --> 00:07:08,913
so to speak, kind of

319
00:07:08,913 --> 00:07:10,409
, um, more of a slope

320
00:07:10,409 --> 00:07:11,532
along the district

321
00:07:11,532 --> 00:07:13,025
sewer, right? Because

322
00:07:13,025 --> 00:07:13,752
we don't want

323
00:07:13,752 --> 00:07:14,769
to interfere with that.

324
00:07:14,769 --> 00:07:15,362
Perfectly.

325
00:07:15,362 --> 00:07:16,202
We want all

326
00:07:16,202 --> 00:07:16,815
water to flow into the

327
00:07:16,815 --> 00:07:17,779
district sewer.

328
00:07:17,779 --> 00:07:18,302
Good.

329
00:07:18,302 --> 00:07:19,308
Right? So, we

330
00:07:19,308 --> 00:07:20,047
want it to

331
00:07:20,047 --> 00:07:21,083
drain into our pond.

332
00:07:21,083 --> 00:07:21,669
Perfectly.

333
00:07:21,669 --> 00:07:22,617
Going to...Yes, I'm

334
00:07:22,617 --> 00:07:23,733
going to provide

335
00:07:23,733 --> 00:07:24,543
that because I

336
00:07:24,543 --> 00:07:25,547
need a water drain

337
00:07:25,547 --> 00:07:26,736
to fill the pond.

338
00:07:26,736 --> 00:07:30,555
Good. Good. So, and, you may not know the

339
00:07:30,555 --> 00:07:34,268
exact number. I'm not

340
00:07:34,268 --> 00:07:35,425
necessarily looking for an

341
00:07:35,425 --> 00:07:36,792
exact number, but like

342
00:07:36,792 --> 00:07:38,124
during the exercises, I don't

343
00:07:38,124 --> 00:07:39,772
know if

344
00:07:39,807 --> 00:07:41,209
different volumes of water are used, but

345
00:07:41,209 --> 00:07:42,506
can you imagine

346
00:07:42,506 --> 00:07:43,488
what volume of water

347
00:07:43,488 --> 00:07:44,645
is served during the

348
00:07:44,645 --> 00:07:47,381
exercises?

349
00:07:47,381 --> 00:07:49,213
Yes, yes, I know that. It

350
00:07:49,213 --> 00:07:50,328
depends on what kind of

351
00:07:50,328 --> 00:07:51,706
manual line we have.

352
00:07:51,706 --> 00:07:52,256
Good.

353
00:07:52,256 --> 00:07:53,269
So the one

354
00:07:53,269 --> 00:07:54,308
and a half inch line that we

355
00:07:54,308 --> 00:07:55,108
actually take

356
00:07:55,108 --> 00:07:56,042
inside the house,

357
00:07:56,042 --> 00:07:56,628
or what we

358
00:07:56,628 --> 00:07:57,428
call our

359
00:07:57,428 --> 00:07:58,361
speed line,

360
00:07:58,361 --> 00:07:59,374
is about 130

361
00:07:59,374 --> 00:08:00,408
gallons per minute. A

362
00:08:00,408 --> 00:08:01,469
2½

363
00:08:01,469 --> 00:08:02,590
inch line is about 400

364
00:08:02,590 --> 00:08:03,772
gallons per minute, and a

365
00:08:03,772 --> 00:08:04,894
deck gun or a

366
00:08:04,894 --> 00:08:06,107
drencher gun

367
00:08:06,107 --> 00:08:07,228
on the roof of a

368
00:08:07,228 --> 00:08:08,441
truck is about

369
00:08:08,441 --> 00:08:09,623
1,000 gallons per minute

370
00:08:09,623 --> 00:08:10,361
.

371
00:08:10,361 --> 00:08:11,830
What was the second one? 1 and

372
00:08:11,830 --> 00:08:14,036
a half was 150

373
00:08:14,036 --> 00:08:16,951
and 1/2 was 130 gallons and

374
00:08:16,951 --> 00:08:18,442
then 400 gallons for a

375
00:08:18,442 --> 00:08:19,934
2 and a half

376
00:08:19,934 --> 00:08:20,924
inch hose. And then the

377
00:08:20,924 --> 00:08:22,072
drencher gun—

378
00:08:22,072 --> 00:08:23,156
it's the top gun,

379
00:08:23,156 --> 00:08:24,336
it's mounted on a

380
00:08:24,336 --> 00:08:25,452
truck, and it's 1,000

381
00:08:25,452 --> 00:08:26,668
gallons per minute.

382
00:08:26,668 --> 00:08:27,589
Someone can't

383
00:08:27,589 --> 00:08:28,683
hold it in. So it's

384
00:08:28,683 --> 00:08:29,380
mounted on a

385
00:08:29,380 --> 00:08:30,227
truck and it's

386
00:08:30,227 --> 00:08:31,298
flowing at a speed...That

387
00:08:31,298 --> 00:08:32,732
makes sense. Will you be

388
00:08:32,732 --> 00:08:33,948
training

389
00:08:33,948 --> 00:08:35,301
year-round?

390
00:08:35,301 --> 00:08:37,101
Hmm, no. We don't

391
00:08:37,101 --> 00:08:38,276
train very much

392
00:08:38,276 --> 00:08:38,826
in the winter.

393
00:08:38,826 --> 00:08:40,224
Okay, it was me,

394
00:08:40,224 --> 00:08:41,236
and the ice, and so

395
00:08:41,236 --> 00:08:41,633
on.

396
00:08:41,633 --> 00:08:42,870
So we kind of leave

397
00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:43,830
that to the real

398
00:08:43,830 --> 00:08:44,580
firefighters.

399
00:08:44,580 --> 00:08:45,773
Good. I was

400
00:08:45,773 --> 00:08:47,112
wondering how that would affect...

401
00:08:47,112 --> 00:08:48,040
Um, because it would kind of

402
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,413
change the whole, I think,

403
00:08:49,413 --> 00:08:50,409
plan of what you're

404
00:08:50,409 --> 00:08:52,027
trying to do.

405
00:08:52,027 --> 00:08:53,317
Um, you know, like this

406
00:08:53,317 --> 00:08:57,653
. Good. So, um,

407
00:08:57,653 --> 00:08:59,048
my next question

408
00:08:59,048 --> 00:09:00,192
is: Are you planning on

409
00:09:00,192 --> 00:09:01,586
bringing in about 3,000

410
00:09:01,586 --> 00:09:02,695
yards plus or minus of

411
00:09:02,695 --> 00:09:03,982
gravel and other types of

412
00:09:03,982 --> 00:09:07,895
bulk soil. Um,

413
00:09:07,895 --> 00:09:08,813
so you're really

414
00:09:08,813 --> 00:09:10,016
going to fill in

415
00:09:10,016 --> 00:09:10,998
and change the shape of

416
00:09:10,998 --> 00:09:12,261
this slope. How

417
00:09:12,261 --> 00:09:13,375
will the

418
00:09:13,375 --> 00:09:14,697
side

419
00:09:14,697 --> 00:09:16,539
embankments be finally stabilized? Are you thinking

420
00:09:16,539 --> 00:09:17,648
about something like

421
00:09:17,648 --> 00:09:18,854
riprap or seeds,

422
00:09:18,854 --> 00:09:21,117
or will it be grass.

423
00:09:21,117 --> 00:09:22,539
And another question that

424
00:09:22,539 --> 00:09:23,961
I hadn't thought about before,

425
00:09:23,961 --> 00:09:27,538
as you just mentioned.

426
00:09:27,538 --> 00:09:28,770
For the winter, to get

427
00:09:28,770 --> 00:09:29,470
the grass growing, I'll have to

428
00:09:29,470 --> 00:09:30,602
quickly

429
00:09:30,602 --> 00:09:31,801
sow some rye

430
00:09:31,801 --> 00:09:33,101
so that something sticks

431
00:09:33,101 --> 00:09:34,433
and holds the soil in

432
00:09:34,433 --> 00:09:36,103
place.

433
00:09:36,103 --> 00:09:37,853
Good. Good.

434
00:09:37,853 --> 00:09:39,137
Because it's the only thing I can

435
00:09:39,137 --> 00:09:40,292
grow right now.

436
00:09:40,292 --> 00:09:41,097
Of course.

437
00:09:41,097 --> 00:09:43,578
So when

438
00:09:43,578 --> 00:09:44,836
you, um, have a road

439
00:09:44,836 --> 00:09:45,465
to your

440
00:09:45,465 --> 00:09:46,409
training

441
00:09:46,409 --> 00:09:47,667
ground, you know,

442
00:09:47,667 --> 00:09:49,030
of course we need

443
00:09:49,030 --> 00:09:51,840
some kind of slope. I

444
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,418
was wondering if you

445
00:09:53,418 --> 00:09:55,187
were thinking about a 4:1 slope,

446
00:09:55,187 --> 00:09:57,005
which has a 25% slope, which is

447
00:09:57,005 --> 00:09:58,200
very gentle,

448
00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,491
for example, for

449
00:09:59,491 --> 00:10:01,309
lawn mowers, or if you

450
00:10:01,309 --> 00:10:03,174
could do a 33

451
00:10:03,174 --> 00:10:04,943
% slope, which is a 3:1 slope. It's

452
00:10:04,943 --> 00:10:06,275
steeper. You

453
00:10:06,275 --> 00:10:07,205
can still do, you

454
00:10:07,205 --> 00:10:08,198
know, a zero

455
00:10:08,198 --> 00:10:08,779
turn.

456
00:10:08,779 --> 00:10:09,825
Yes, we will do it

457
00:10:09,825 --> 00:10:11,027
more gradually. We'll

458
00:10:11,027 --> 00:10:12,057
try to keep

459
00:10:12,057 --> 00:10:13,208
it level from the edge

460
00:10:13,208 --> 00:10:14,127
down to the pond.

461
00:10:14,127 --> 00:10:15,243
Okay, so more

462
00:10:15,243 --> 00:10:15,937
subtle...

463
00:10:15,937 --> 00:10:16,798
Yeah, the top, that

464
00:10:16,798 --> 00:10:18,004
little picture

465
00:10:18,004 --> 00:10:19,107
I drew

466
00:10:19,107 --> 00:10:20,106
shows the bottom for

467
00:10:20,106 --> 00:10:21,209
every, I don't know,

468
00:10:21,209 --> 00:10:22,478
so many feet.

469
00:10:22,478 --> 00:10:23,071
Good.

470
00:10:23,071 --> 00:10:23,552
This is

471
00:10:23,552 --> 00:10:24,281
normal.

472
00:10:24,281 --> 00:10:25,074
This will be very

473
00:10:25,074 --> 00:10:25,830
gradual.

474
00:10:25,830 --> 00:10:26,979
Okay, so make

475
00:10:26,979 --> 00:10:28,069
maintenance easy for

476
00:10:28,069 --> 00:10:29,097
you guys and then

477
00:10:29,097 --> 00:10:30,096
you don't have to

478
00:10:30,096 --> 00:10:31,034
worry about,

479
00:10:31,034 --> 00:10:32,244
you know, because I was thinking about

480
00:10:32,244 --> 00:10:33,243
keeping an eye on

481
00:10:33,243 --> 00:10:34,615
maintenance. But,

482
00:10:34,615 --> 00:10:36,096
um, sometimes when you have the

483
00:10:36,096 --> 00:10:36,985
force of the water coming

484
00:10:36,985 --> 00:10:38,356
down at that

485
00:10:38,356 --> 00:10:39,689
speed because of the way

486
00:10:39,689 --> 00:10:41,171
the hose is being pumped,

487
00:10:41,171 --> 00:10:42,615
it would probably like to

488
00:10:42,615 --> 00:10:43,912
, you know, cause

489
00:10:43,912 --> 00:10:45,319
a little erosion there,

490
00:10:45,319 --> 00:10:46,764
so that would be, you know,

491
00:10:46,764 --> 00:10:50,386
difficult. Yes, that's definitely

492
00:10:50,386 --> 00:10:52,069
, um, that'll definitely do

493
00:10:52,069 --> 00:10:55,789
it. So, even where the

494
00:10:55,789 --> 00:10:56,959
slope

495
00:10:56,959 --> 00:10:58,130
or incline ends, you still

496
00:10:58,130 --> 00:10:59,403
stay within the

497
00:10:59,403 --> 00:11:00,746
indentations that you have

498
00:11:00,746 --> 00:11:02,748
given us here.

499
00:11:02,748 --> 00:11:03,872
Yes. Oh, yes.

500
00:11:03,872 --> 00:11:09,654
Good. Good. Hmm,

501
00:11:09,654 --> 00:11:10,564
I have another

502
00:11:10,564 --> 00:11:11,614
question that I will

503
00:11:11,614 --> 00:11:12,979
pass on to the other members of

504
00:11:12,979 --> 00:11:14,169
the commission: I appreciate

505
00:11:14,169 --> 00:11:15,149
your

506
00:11:15,149 --> 00:11:15,919
thinking about

507
00:11:15,919 --> 00:11:17,004
creating a berm,

508
00:11:17,004 --> 00:11:19,174
for example, near the

509
00:11:19,209 --> 00:11:20,348
Leonard drainage system. You know,

510
00:11:20,348 --> 00:11:20,982
just to

511
00:11:20,982 --> 00:11:22,249
make sure that the water

512
00:11:22,249 --> 00:11:22,978
stays

513
00:11:22,978 --> 00:11:23,929
inside your

514
00:11:23,929 --> 00:11:25,101
property so that we do

515
00:11:25,101 --> 00:11:26,210
n't have, well, you know,

516
00:11:26,210 --> 00:11:27,382
any intrusion,

517
00:11:27,382 --> 00:11:29,220
even if it's

518
00:11:29,252 --> 00:11:30,797
Leonard's drainage system. It makes

519
00:11:30,797 --> 00:11:32,011
life easier for all of us when it

520
00:11:32,011 --> 00:11:33,446
comes to, um,

521
00:11:33,446 --> 00:11:34,317
things like that. But do

522
00:11:34,317 --> 00:11:35,385
you feel like there are

523
00:11:35,385 --> 00:11:36,424
any tree lines,

524
00:11:36,424 --> 00:11:37,553
vegetation, or anything

525
00:11:37,553 --> 00:11:38,561
else that could be

526
00:11:38,561 --> 00:11:39,852
disturbed in this way?

527
00:11:39,852 --> 00:11:41,194
Just grass and whatever else

528
00:11:41,194 --> 00:11:42,600
is there now. We do

529
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,174
n't mow it.

530
00:11:44,174 --> 00:11:45,078
We usually mow it

531
00:11:45,078 --> 00:11:46,384
about once a year,

532
00:11:46,384 --> 00:11:47,657
or sometimes in the spring we

533
00:11:47,657 --> 00:11:49,801
have, um,

534
00:11:49,834 --> 00:11:51,074
wildfire training where we

535
00:11:51,074 --> 00:11:52,447
burn it.

536
00:11:52,447 --> 00:11:53,015
Good.

537
00:11:53,015 --> 00:11:53,627
We do

538
00:11:53,627 --> 00:11:54,648
training, but sometimes

539
00:11:54,648 --> 00:11:55,260
we need the

540
00:11:55,260 --> 00:11:56,281
right conditions so

541
00:11:56,281 --> 00:11:57,302
she can burn that

542
00:11:57,302 --> 00:11:58,405
vegetation there. So

543
00:11:58,405 --> 00:11:59,662
usually, if we

544
00:11:59,662 --> 00:12:00,987
can't burn it, we

545
00:12:00,987 --> 00:12:01,973
mow it, um, with a

546
00:12:01,973 --> 00:12:03,398
brush cutter, once a year.

547
00:12:03,398 --> 00:12:04,152
Of course. I

548
00:12:04,152 --> 00:12:05,191
don't want all these

549
00:12:05,191 --> 00:12:06,026
trees to grow.

550
00:12:06,026 --> 00:12:07,219
I know, and they really are sprouting

551
00:12:07,219 --> 00:12:08,215
.

552
00:12:08,215 --> 00:12:09,403
Yeah, and when we first

553
00:12:09,403 --> 00:12:10,529
got there, when we

554
00:12:10,529 --> 00:12:11,781
first moved in

555
00:12:11,781 --> 00:12:13,001
2004, um,

556
00:12:13,001 --> 00:12:13,939
we were mowing all this

557
00:12:13,939 --> 00:12:14,719
grass in that place. There was

558
00:12:14,719 --> 00:12:15,437
too much of it, and I

559
00:12:15,437 --> 00:12:16,299
had to call the

560
00:12:16,299 --> 00:12:17,390
boss. I'm like, "

561
00:12:17,390 --> 00:12:18,246
No, that's too much

562
00:12:18,246 --> 00:12:19,560
mowing. We'll just

563
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:21,093
leave it as is." And hmm

564
00:12:21,093 --> 00:12:22,677
, a premonition of burning

565
00:12:22,677 --> 00:12:24,222
it for a forest fire

566
00:12:24,222 --> 00:12:24,988
.

567
00:12:24,988 --> 00:12:25,583
Good.

568
00:12:25,583 --> 00:12:26,900
So, they are trained.

569
00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:28,590
Perfectly. Oh, sorry.

570
00:12:28,590 --> 00:12:30,008
I have another one. So, um

571
00:12:30,008 --> 00:12:31,120
, and I think your,

572
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:31,776
um, assistant

573
00:12:31,776 --> 00:12:32,888
chief that we

574
00:12:32,888 --> 00:12:33,971
talked to on Wednesday

575
00:12:33,971 --> 00:12:34,998
when we, um, went

576
00:12:34,998 --> 00:12:36,053
there, he

577
00:12:36,053 --> 00:12:37,051
explained things really well, but I was

578
00:12:37,051 --> 00:12:37,963
hoping you

579
00:12:37,963 --> 00:12:38,990
could elaborate a

580
00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:40,155
little bit more. You

581
00:12:40,155 --> 00:12:41,257
dug that

582
00:12:41,257 --> 00:12:42,379
pond yourself, right? So do you

583
00:12:42,379 --> 00:12:43,484
have an idea of ​​the

584
00:12:43,484 --> 00:12:44,590
volume of the water, how much

585
00:12:44,590 --> 00:12:45,791
water it holds, and what

586
00:12:45,791 --> 00:12:47,023
happens to your

587
00:12:47,023 --> 00:12:48,233
overflow? Do you have an

588
00:12:48,233 --> 00:12:49,254
overflow?

589
00:12:49,254 --> 00:12:50,252
It was built

590
00:12:50,252 --> 00:12:52,749
many years ago to

591
00:12:52,782 --> 00:12:54,114
Winthrop Village specifications, and there is a drainage

592
00:12:54,114 --> 00:12:55,379
that leads to the

593
00:12:55,379 --> 00:12:56,735
Leonard Drain. So if

594
00:12:56,735 --> 00:12:57,649
this pond ever

595
00:12:57,649 --> 00:12:58,480
gets that

596
00:12:58,480 --> 00:12:59,450
high, there will be a

597
00:12:59,450 --> 00:13:00,420
drainage that leads

598
00:13:00,420 --> 00:13:01,500
that way. I've never

599
00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:02,515
seen one in all the

600
00:13:02,515 --> 00:13:03,643
years I've been there go

601
00:13:03,643 --> 00:13:04,759
that high.

602
00:13:04,759 --> 00:13:07,189
Got it. Okay, Okay, just

603
00:13:07,189 --> 00:13:08,226
wanted to make sure

604
00:13:08,226 --> 00:13:09,336
he would hold it.

605
00:13:09,336 --> 00:13:10,708
So that's all I have

606
00:13:10,708 --> 00:13:13,052
for myself regarding the questions.

607
00:13:13,052 --> 00:13:13,879
Someone else may

608
00:13:13,879 --> 00:13:15,169
ask, because I'm just

609
00:13:15,169 --> 00:13:18,705
ready. Uh, I just

610
00:13:18,705 --> 00:13:19,758
said that as for the

611
00:13:19,758 --> 00:13:21,188
stones going into your

612
00:13:21,188 --> 00:13:22,504
foundation, I'm on Porter

613
00:13:22,504 --> 00:13:24,162
Lane. We had to

614
00:13:24,162 --> 00:13:25,480
add some rocks. There are

615
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:26,625
no large

616
00:13:26,625 --> 00:13:27,784
stones there. Is there any

617
00:13:27,784 --> 00:13:28,830
reason not to put

618
00:13:28,830 --> 00:13:29,937
large stones at

619
00:13:29,937 --> 00:13:30,725
the base, or is it

620
00:13:30,725 --> 00:13:32,818
more expensive? There's, um, there's going to be

621
00:13:32,818 --> 00:13:34,050
crushed concrete, but

622
00:13:34,050 --> 00:13:35,317
it's going to be smaller, not

623
00:13:35,317 --> 00:13:36,540
really big, but

624
00:13:36,540 --> 00:13:37,311
well, I mean

625
00:13:37,311 --> 00:13:38,058
this big or

626
00:13:38,058 --> 00:13:38,782
big, you know,

627
00:13:38,782 --> 00:13:39,384
like, it's

628
00:13:39,384 --> 00:13:40,373
huge. Yes,

629
00:13:40,373 --> 00:13:41,285
no, sorry, I can't

630
00:13:41,285 --> 00:13:41,994
do that.

631
00:13:41,994 --> 00:13:43,278
Oh, okay. So it's

632
00:13:43,278 --> 00:13:43,929
actually

633
00:13:43,929 --> 00:13:44,612
small.

634
00:13:44,612 --> 00:13:45,156
Good.

635
00:13:45,156 --> 00:13:46,174
And then that will be the base,

636
00:13:46,174 --> 00:13:46,683
and then we will

637
00:13:46,683 --> 00:13:47,749
go up from there.

638
00:13:47,749 --> 00:13:48,862
Because we found that we

639
00:13:48,862 --> 00:13:49,976
needed such a base in

640
00:13:49,976 --> 00:13:50,914
certain places where

641
00:13:50,914 --> 00:13:51,881
it is completely

642
00:13:51,881 --> 00:13:53,136
underwater. We need

643
00:13:53,136 --> 00:13:54,593
something stronger. Hmm,

644
00:13:54,593 --> 00:13:55,677
and luckily we're not in

645
00:13:55,677 --> 00:13:56,860
such a swampy

646
00:13:56,860 --> 00:13:57,388
area.

647
00:13:57,388 --> 00:13:58,766
Yes. Well, I thought, you

648
00:13:58,766 --> 00:13:59,458
all, you're not in a

649
00:13:59,458 --> 00:14:00,677
swampy area,

650
00:14:00,677 --> 00:14:01,962
but you have something heavy

651
00:14:01,962 --> 00:14:03,181
going through

652
00:14:03,181 --> 00:14:03,644
it.

653
00:14:03,644 --> 00:14:05,520
Yes.

654
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,561
It was just my

655
00:14:06,561 --> 00:14:07,835
new experience.

656
00:14:07,835 --> 00:14:09,079
Yeah, and I actually

657
00:14:09,079 --> 00:14:09,871
sold, uh,

658
00:14:09,871 --> 00:14:11,341
specs from other

659
00:14:11,341 --> 00:14:12,661
projects all over

660
00:14:12,661 --> 00:14:13,754
town with my

661
00:14:13,754 --> 00:14:14,999
requirement that they have a

662
00:14:14,999 --> 00:14:16,243
road and, uh,

663
00:14:16,243 --> 00:14:17,223
support for a 60,000-

664
00:14:17,223 --> 00:14:18,681
pound truck.

665
00:14:18,681 --> 00:14:19,861
So I know she

666
00:14:19,861 --> 00:14:21,107
can handle it.

667
00:14:21,107 --> 00:14:22,360
We didn't have to pay for it

668
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:23,767
. It just

669
00:14:23,767 --> 00:14:25,142
paid off.

670
00:14:25,142 --> 00:14:25,818
Cool.

671
00:14:25,818 --> 00:14:28,775
Good. Anyone else? Okay

672
00:14:28,775 --> 00:14:29,586
, so I'll just

673
00:14:29,586 --> 00:14:30,657
summarize what we

674
00:14:30,657 --> 00:14:31,760
just did here

675
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:33,057
before we move on

676
00:14:33,057 --> 00:14:33,706
to the

677
00:14:33,706 --> 00:14:36,457
proposal. So

678
00:14:36,457 --> 00:14:37,572
basically, the project

679
00:14:37,572 --> 00:14:38,589
that Chief Murawsky is asking us

680
00:14:38,589 --> 00:14:39,770
to do

681
00:14:39,770 --> 00:14:40,787
, it

682
00:14:40,787 --> 00:14:41,541
seems to me that the

683
00:14:41,541 --> 00:14:42,230
requested

684
00:14:42,230 --> 00:14:43,050
use

685
00:14:43,050 --> 00:14:44,231
supports

686
00:14:44,231 --> 00:14:45,510
public safety operations,

687
00:14:45,510 --> 00:14:46,691
which is important to this

688
00:14:46,691 --> 00:14:47,642
community, and we

689
00:14:47,642 --> 00:14:48,921
appreciate that, and we appreciate

690
00:14:48,921 --> 00:14:51,767
our firefighters.

691
00:14:51,767 --> 00:14:53,145
It seems that all obstacles

692
00:14:53,145 --> 00:14:55,048
have been taken into account. It seems like the

693
00:14:55,048 --> 00:14:56,294
engineering substructure

694
00:14:56,294 --> 00:14:57,476
you mentioned

695
00:14:57,476 --> 00:14:58,722
also supports your

696
00:14:58,722 --> 00:14:59,969
equipment, as

697
00:14:59,969 --> 00:15:00,895
the weight you

698
00:15:00,895 --> 00:15:01,918
mentioned is the weight of the

699
00:15:01,918 --> 00:15:03,912
fire engines. And

700
00:15:03,912 --> 00:15:05,124
it looks like the planning

701
00:15:05,124 --> 00:15:06,048
will direct the water to a

702
00:15:06,048 --> 00:15:07,228
pond on the property

703
00:15:07,228 --> 00:15:08,503
and stay within the boundaries of the

704
00:15:08,503 --> 00:15:13,065
site. So, in

705
00:15:13,065 --> 00:15:13,971
light of this, I

706
00:15:13,971 --> 00:15:15,247
move to approve the

707
00:15:15,247 --> 00:15:17,027
site plan for

708
00:15:17,060 --> 00:15:18,336
Fire

709
00:15:18,336 --> 00:15:19,343
Station One Training Site as

710
00:15:19,343 --> 00:15:20,518
depicted on the

711
00:15:20,518 --> 00:15:21,828
site plan dated August 26,

712
00:15:21,828 --> 00:15:23,103
finding

713
00:15:23,103 --> 00:15:24,010
that the layout,

714
00:15:24,010 --> 00:15:24,681
setbacks, and

715
00:15:24,681 --> 00:15:25,588
proposed

716
00:15:25,588 --> 00:15:26,293
layout

717
00:15:26,293 --> 00:15:27,132
meet

718
00:15:27,132 --> 00:15:28,475
the standards of the

719
00:15:28,475 --> 00:15:29,818
Village Zoning Ordinance under

720
00:15:29,818 --> 00:15:33,877
these conditions. First,

721
00:15:33,877 --> 00:15:34,915
the applicant is solely

722
00:15:34,915 --> 00:15:36,043
responsible for

723
00:15:36,043 --> 00:15:36,666
determining

724
00:15:36,666 --> 00:15:37,556
the need for and

725
00:15:37,556 --> 00:15:38,654
obtaining any

726
00:15:38,654 --> 00:15:39,781
necessary

727
00:15:39,781 --> 00:15:40,523
work permits for

728
00:15:40,523 --> 00:15:41,472
approval from

729
00:15:41,472 --> 00:15:42,600
external

730
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:43,579
county government agencies prior to

731
00:15:43,579 --> 00:15:46,209
construction commencing.

732
00:15:46,209 --> 00:15:47,395
Second, all

733
00:15:47,395 --> 00:15:48,613
earthworks, layout and

734
00:15:48,613 --> 00:15:49,738
drainage must be

735
00:15:49,738 --> 00:15:50,530
constructed and

736
00:15:50,530 --> 00:15:51,503
maintained in

737
00:15:51,503 --> 00:15:51,960
strict

738
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:52,934
accordance with

739
00:15:52,934 --> 00:15:54,060
approved elevations

740
00:15:54,060 --> 00:15:55,186
so that all training

741
00:15:55,186 --> 00:15:56,281
runoff is directed

742
00:15:56,281 --> 00:15:57,407
to the local pound without

743
00:15:57,407 --> 00:15:58,563
adversely affecting

744
00:15:58,563 --> 00:16:01,204
adjacent sites. And

745
00:16:01,204 --> 00:16:02,229
finally, thirdly,

746
00:16:02,229 --> 00:16:03,099
disturbed slopes

747
00:16:03,099 --> 00:16:03,845
should be

748
00:16:03,845 --> 00:16:04,436
finally

749
00:16:04,436 --> 00:16:05,275
stabilized

750
00:16:05,275 --> 00:16:06,207
with vegetation or

751
00:16:06,207 --> 00:16:06,922
suitable

752
00:16:06,922 --> 00:16:08,040
soil cover

753
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,035
after planning is completed

754
00:16:09,035 --> 00:16:10,843
. Do

755
00:16:10,843 --> 00:16:12,963
I have a second?

756
00:16:12,963 --> 00:16:17,988
I will support.

757
00:16:17,988 --> 00:16:18,747
We will hold a

758
00:16:18,747 --> 00:16:19,512
roll call.

759
00:16:19,512 --> 00:16:20,408
Good. Yes, we

760
00:16:20,408 --> 00:16:21,464
will hold a roll call

761
00:16:21,464 --> 00:16:22,482
. Please take a

762
00:16:22,482 --> 00:16:23,152
roll call on

763
00:16:23,152 --> 00:16:24,932
this matter. Lori?

764
00:16:24,932 --> 00:16:25,688
Yes.

765
00:16:25,688 --> 00:16:26,400
Doug?

766
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:27,009
Here.

767
00:16:27,009 --> 00:16:27,591
Katie?

768
00:16:27,591 --> 00:16:28,413
Yes.

769
00:16:28,413 --> 00:16:29,273
And Michelle?

770
00:16:29,273 --> 00:16:29,767
Yes.

771
00:16:29,767 --> 00:16:31,618
Perfectly. And Jennifer?

772
00:16:31,618 --> 00:16:32,777
Yes.

773
00:16:32,777 --> 00:16:34,474
So, everyone is "in favor." All "

774
00:16:34,474 --> 00:16:35,637
for".

775
00:16:35,637 --> 00:16:37,978
The proposal is accepted.

776
00:16:37,978 --> 00:16:39,400
Okay, you're accepted,

777
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:40,361
thank you for your

778
00:16:40,361 --> 00:16:41,706
presentation and your

779
00:16:41,706 --> 00:16:43,244
time, and, um, if you have a

780
00:16:43,244 --> 00:16:44,589
Lions game, you don't

781
00:16:44,589 --> 00:16:45,973
feel the need to

782
00:16:45,973 --> 00:16:48,986
stay. Therefore.

783
00:16:48,986 --> 00:16:49,959
Okay, so, um, we're

784
00:16:49,959 --> 00:16:50,996
moving on to, um,

785
00:16:50,996 --> 00:16:52,095
item number three, which is

786
00:16:52,095 --> 00:16:53,132
to update

787
00:16:53,132 --> 00:16:54,074
information regarding the

788
00:16:54,074 --> 00:16:55,385
village council. Hmm, we have

789
00:16:55,385 --> 00:16:55,868
n't

790
00:16:55,868 --> 00:16:57,014
met in a while, so I'll

791
00:16:57,014 --> 00:16:57,858
just try to

792
00:16:57,858 --> 00:16:58,854
provide, um, a

793
00:16:58,854 --> 00:16:59,970
CliffNotes version of the updates

794
00:16:59,970 --> 00:17:01,186
regarding the village council.

795
00:17:01,186 --> 00:17:02,493
Hmm, we're looking for a

796
00:17:02,493 --> 00:17:04,390
DPW manager. Um,

797
00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:05,791
interviews

798
00:17:05,791 --> 00:17:07,193
will probably start next

799
00:17:07,193 --> 00:17:08,570
week. Hmm, we have a

800
00:17:08,570 --> 00:17:10,022
few applications. We have

801
00:17:10,022 --> 00:17:10,823
three candidates, but

802
00:17:10,823 --> 00:17:11,294
if someone

803
00:17:11,294 --> 00:17:12,659
is interested in a

804
00:17:12,682 --> 00:17:13,530
part-time job

805
00:17:13,530 --> 00:17:14,142
that is a bit

806
00:17:14,142 --> 00:17:15,083
irregular, maybe

807
00:17:15,083 --> 00:17:16,001
it's someone who likes outdoor activities

808
00:17:16,001 --> 00:17:16,996
.

809
00:17:16,996 --> 00:17:18,171
Hmm, we could, you know,

810
00:17:18,171 --> 00:17:18,906
be some of the

811
00:17:18,906 --> 00:17:19,951
locals. Local

812
00:17:19,951 --> 00:17:21,211
people are always the best.

813
00:17:21,211 --> 00:17:21,935
Maybe even a

814
00:17:21,935 --> 00:17:22,635
retiree, we would

815
00:17:22,635 --> 00:17:23,260
like to talk to them

816
00:17:23,260 --> 00:17:23,885
.

817
00:17:23,885 --> 00:17:24,786
They don't have to

818
00:17:24,786 --> 00:17:25,787
be villagers,

819
00:17:25,787 --> 00:17:26,313
right?

820
00:17:26,313 --> 00:17:27,335
They are not required

821
00:17:27,335 --> 00:17:28,544
to be residents of the village.

822
00:17:28,544 --> 00:17:30,167
No. Hmm, next

823
00:17:30,167 --> 00:17:30,957
point - we are

824
00:17:30,957 --> 00:17:33,867
looking forward to the

825
00:17:33,909 --> 00:17:36,216
2027 road repair project. Hmm, and

826
00:17:36,216 --> 00:17:37,578
we're going to start

827
00:17:37,578 --> 00:17:38,870
on the north side of

828
00:17:38,870 --> 00:17:40,093
Forest Street, but

829
00:17:40,093 --> 00:17:41,001
we're having

830
00:17:41,001 --> 00:17:42,153
difficulties, and that's our

831
00:17:42,153 --> 00:17:44,882
audit. Hmm, this is an ongoing

832
00:17:44,882 --> 00:17:46,254
problem that just has

833
00:17:46,254 --> 00:17:47,871
n't been solved. Hmm, the

834
00:17:47,871 --> 00:17:49,236
previous person who

835
00:17:49,236 --> 00:17:50,191
conducted our

836
00:17:50,191 --> 00:17:51,419
audits, and we, being a

837
00:17:51,419 --> 00:17:52,068
small

838
00:17:52,068 --> 00:17:53,159
municipality,

839
00:17:53,159 --> 00:17:54,490
conduct audits every

840
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:56,241
two years. Hmm, they did

841
00:17:56,241 --> 00:17:58,610
n't audit us

842
00:17:58,610 --> 00:18:00,697
for 2024 and 2025. We

843
00:18:00,697 --> 00:18:01,884
canceled the audit and

844
00:18:01,884 --> 00:18:03,287
transferred it to a new

845
00:18:03,287 --> 00:18:05,483
auditor. So, um,

846
00:18:05,483 --> 00:18:06,699
they made us some

847
00:18:06,699 --> 00:18:08,016
promises, but they

848
00:18:08,016 --> 00:18:09,367
didn't keep them, and now

849
00:18:09,367 --> 00:18:10,549
we have a very stressful

850
00:18:10,549 --> 00:18:13,708
deadline. Hmm, we

851
00:18:13,708 --> 00:18:15,080
need to make this

852
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,381
first payment to our

853
00:18:16,381 --> 00:18:17,472
engineers, hmm, by

854
00:18:17,472 --> 00:18:22,046
the end of September. Hmm, without

855
00:18:22,046 --> 00:18:23,297
the money under Act 51

856
00:18:23,297 --> 00:18:24,514
and without the audit, not

857
00:18:24,514 --> 00:18:25,661
only will we not be able to

858
00:18:25,661 --> 00:18:26,912
complete the road

859
00:18:26,912 --> 00:18:27,920
project, but we also won't

860
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,032
be able to get the

861
00:18:29,032 --> 00:18:32,650
grants. I tried to

862
00:18:32,650 --> 00:18:33,699
apply for a

863
00:18:33,699 --> 00:18:34,646
Ralph K.

864
00:18:34,646 --> 00:18:35,796
Wilson grant about

865
00:18:35,796 --> 00:18:37,048
a month ago, and the first

866
00:18:37,048 --> 00:18:38,198
question was, "We

867
00:18:38,198 --> 00:18:39,145
need a copy of

868
00:18:39,145 --> 00:18:41,888
your audit." So

869
00:18:41,888 --> 00:18:42,690
we are absolutely

870
00:18:42,690 --> 00:18:43,426
stuck in

871
00:18:43,426 --> 00:18:44,764
attracting money to this

872
00:18:44,764 --> 00:18:46,701
village. So, um,

873
00:18:46,701 --> 00:18:48,165
I really hope that something

874
00:18:48,165 --> 00:18:48,815
will be, um,

875
00:18:48,815 --> 00:18:52,384
settled. Hmm,

876
00:18:52,384 --> 00:18:54,327
the sale of land in

877
00:18:54,360 --> 00:18:55,298
Leonard Natural Park is almost

878
00:18:55,298 --> 00:18:57,279
complete. Hmm, and then

879
00:18:57,279 --> 00:18:58,450
they can start

880
00:18:58,450 --> 00:18:59,210
making some

881
00:18:59,210 --> 00:19:00,418
improvements to the park. The

882
00:19:00,418 --> 00:19:02,563
largest park committee we've ever had

883
00:19:02,563 --> 00:19:04,105
.

884
00:19:04,140 --> 00:19:05,959
Exciting things are happening. It

885
00:19:05,959 --> 00:19:06,958
seems to me that you

886
00:19:06,958 --> 00:19:07,957
guys are local

887
00:19:07,957 --> 00:19:08,853
plants, and there are

888
00:19:08,853 --> 00:19:10,163
a lot of

889
00:19:10,163 --> 00:19:11,404
really exciting

890
00:19:11,404 --> 00:19:13,109
projects going on there.

891
00:19:13,109 --> 00:19:14,267
This should be very

892
00:19:14,267 --> 00:19:15,770
interesting. Yes.

893
00:19:15,770 --> 00:19:17,173
Yeah, I mean,

894
00:19:17,173 --> 00:19:17,754
just to

895
00:19:17,754 --> 00:19:18,918
make

896
00:19:18,918 --> 00:19:20,158
something really beautiful that has to

897
00:19:20,158 --> 00:19:21,045
be really

898
00:19:21,045 --> 00:19:22,109
unique, and with the

899
00:19:22,109 --> 00:19:23,527
trail, you know, we have a

900
00:19:23,527 --> 00:19:27,215
lot of business. Some

901
00:19:27,215 --> 00:19:28,336
came to us because they

902
00:19:28,336 --> 00:19:29,585
use the trail

903
00:19:29,585 --> 00:19:30,668
. They were like, “Hey,

904
00:19:30,668 --> 00:19:31,777
we like this.

905
00:19:31,777 --> 00:19:32,369
We need an

906
00:19:32,369 --> 00:19:33,281
outbuilding for a

907
00:19:33,281 --> 00:19:34,097
day or longer.”

908
00:19:34,097 --> 00:19:35,608
Oh, that's great. It's just

909
00:19:35,608 --> 00:19:36,912
so nice to hear that.

910
00:19:36,912 --> 00:19:38,083
So, that's all I have

911
00:19:38,083 --> 00:19:39,161
for an update on the

912
00:19:39,161 --> 00:19:40,276
village council. We'll

913
00:19:40,276 --> 00:19:41,397
just get back to

914
00:19:41,397 --> 00:19:44,268
business as usual. And the old

915
00:19:44,268 --> 00:19:45,620
thing is

916
00:19:45,620 --> 00:19:47,015
42, 85 Forest Street, that's that

917
00:19:47,015 --> 00:19:48,323
awful yellow

918
00:19:48,323 --> 00:19:51,698
house over there. Hmm, at the

919
00:19:51,698 --> 00:19:52,853
last

920
00:19:52,853 --> 00:19:54,007
village council meeting

921
00:19:54,007 --> 00:19:55,290
we had on Monday,

922
00:19:55,290 --> 00:19:56,348
we had a hearing

923
00:19:56,348 --> 00:19:58,004
on the case. Hmm,

924
00:19:58,004 --> 00:19:59,752
Kaja Holdings representatives

925
00:19:59,752 --> 00:20:02,740
didn't show up. Hmm, that

926
00:20:02,740 --> 00:20:03,582
allowed us to

927
00:20:03,582 --> 00:20:04,229
move on to the

928
00:20:04,229 --> 00:20:05,394
next stage, which is

929
00:20:05,394 --> 00:20:06,623
submitting all the

930
00:20:06,623 --> 00:20:07,659
documents this

931
00:20:07,659 --> 00:20:10,609
week. Hmm, we'll start

932
00:20:10,609 --> 00:20:12,313
tracking time for 60

933
00:20:12,313 --> 00:20:14,622
days. After the

934
00:20:14,622 --> 00:20:15,846
60 days are up,

935
00:20:15,846 --> 00:20:17,143
Oakland County will begin

936
00:20:17,143 --> 00:20:18,514
issuing

937
00:20:18,514 --> 00:20:19,478
demolition permits for this

938
00:20:19,478 --> 00:20:23,208
property. So, um, it would be

939
00:20:23,208 --> 00:20:24,666
nice if that

940
00:20:24,666 --> 00:20:27,792
went away. Um,

941
00:20:27,792 --> 00:20:29,118
law enforcement

942
00:20:29,118 --> 00:20:30,274
, um, the village received

943
00:20:30,274 --> 00:20:31,159
a complaint from um, a

944
00:20:31,159 --> 00:20:32,451
local resident, that

945
00:20:32,451 --> 00:20:33,710
several piles of bricks

946
00:20:33,710 --> 00:20:34,900
were stacked near

947
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,519
Leonard's Market very, high and were about to

948
00:20:37,519 --> 00:20:39,994
topple over. They

949
00:20:39,994 --> 00:20:41,276
rolled over.

950
00:20:41,276 --> 00:20:41,830
They have already

951
00:20:41,830 --> 00:20:42,796
rolled over.

952
00:20:42,796 --> 00:20:44,115
They rolled over, did

953
00:20:44,115 --> 00:20:45,551
n't they? Um, and someone had to

954
00:20:45,551 --> 00:20:46,962
get hurt. I think

955
00:20:46,962 --> 00:20:48,257
maybe the owner could have

956
00:20:48,257 --> 00:20:49,883
flipped them. So,

957
00:20:49,883 --> 00:20:51,218
he was served with a few

958
00:20:51,218 --> 00:20:52,986
different, um,

959
00:20:53,022 --> 00:20:54,465
violation notices, um, and then

960
00:20:54,465 --> 00:20:55,836
he got one, um,

961
00:20:55,836 --> 00:20:57,243
on Wednesday, which, actually,

962
00:20:57,243 --> 00:20:58,398
I take

963
00:20:58,398 --> 00:21:00,499
back. It was on

964
00:21:00,499 --> 00:21:01,956
Tuesday. That he

965
00:21:01,956 --> 00:21:03,005
actually had 24

966
00:21:03,005 --> 00:21:04,091
hours to

967
00:21:04,091 --> 00:21:05,140
do something, or the

968
00:21:05,140 --> 00:21:06,261
fines, civil

969
00:21:06,261 --> 00:21:06,985
violations,

970
00:21:06,985 --> 00:21:08,396
would start at

971
00:21:08,396 --> 00:21:09,481
$75 a day,

972
00:21:09,481 --> 00:21:10,603
every day, until they were

973
00:21:10,603 --> 00:21:11,896
cleaned up. Um, we

974
00:21:11,896 --> 00:21:12,975
just had to

975
00:21:12,975 --> 00:21:14,341
severely limit it

976
00:21:14,341 --> 00:21:15,779
because these building

977
00:21:15,779 --> 00:21:17,181
materials have been there

978
00:21:17,181 --> 00:21:19,441
since 2018.

979
00:21:19,441 --> 00:21:22,244
Yes. I think it

980
00:21:22,244 --> 00:21:23,421
was hard to see them

981
00:21:23,421 --> 00:21:24,693
behind the broken van

982
00:21:24,693 --> 00:21:25,806
that had been sitting there for 2

983
00:21:25,806 --> 00:21:26,956
years. Hmm, but now that

984
00:21:26,956 --> 00:21:28,117
he's gone, so

985
00:21:28,117 --> 00:21:28,942
hopefully we'll

986
00:21:28,942 --> 00:21:30,011
see some action

987
00:21:30,011 --> 00:21:30,774
on that, and

988
00:21:30,774 --> 00:21:31,599
hopefully this

989
00:21:31,599 --> 00:21:32,393
area will, um,

990
00:21:32,393 --> 00:21:33,462
be cleaned up, and then,

991
00:21:33,462 --> 00:21:34,501
you know, things

992
00:21:34,501 --> 00:21:35,662
will look a little

993
00:21:35,662 --> 00:21:36,890
better here, gradually. Hmm,

994
00:21:36,890 --> 00:21:38,587
do any of the

995
00:21:38,618 --> 00:21:39,588
planning commissioners have any

996
00:21:39,588 --> 00:21:40,194
questions,

997
00:21:40,194 --> 00:21:41,103
concerns, or

998
00:21:41,103 --> 00:21:42,194
comments they would

999
00:21:42,194 --> 00:21:43,406
like to make at

1000
00:21:43,406 --> 00:21:46,430
this time? No?

1001
00:21:46,430 --> 00:21:47,403
Good. With no

1002
00:21:47,403 --> 00:21:48,180
further business

1003
00:21:48,180 --> 00:21:48,982
before the

1004
00:21:48,982 --> 00:21:49,811
planning commission, would

1005
00:21:49,811 --> 00:21:50,510
anyone like to

1006
00:21:50,510 --> 00:21:51,209
move that

1007
00:21:51,209 --> 00:21:53,395
the meeting be closed?

1008
00:21:53,395 --> 00:21:54,534
I propose to close the

1009
00:21:54,534 --> 00:21:55,253
meeting. Do

1010
00:21:55,253 --> 00:21:56,323
you offer?

1011
00:21:56,323 --> 00:21:56,704
Yes.

1012
00:21:56,704 --> 00:21:57,864
Can I have a second?

1013
00:21:57,864 --> 00:21:59,011
I will support. Will you

1014
00:21:59,011 --> 00:22:01,327
support? Good.

1015
00:22:01,327 --> 00:22:03,127
Hmm, everyone in favor?

1016
00:22:03,127 --> 00:22:03,912
Yes.

1017
00:22:03,912 --> 00:22:05,267
The proposal is accepted.

1018
00:22:05,267 --> 00:22:08,470
