[0:01] Been moved and supported, all in favor, aye.
[0:06] Oppose, same sign, motion carries.
[0:12] Okay, I'll get that typed up and put into form. All right. Well, thanks, Karen. We're staying on top of it. Okay. The next thing is, next thing fell as light assessment district, the landlocked parcels. That's Karen again. How are we getting down this? We talked, we talked about this.
[0:33] care and it's something as I told one of the people involved the other day when
[0:39] Karen was he was in to see Karen. It's one of them things that we went through
[0:46] and we updated the lighting districts and didn't realize there was a couple
[0:51] of parcels that people had that were zero beneficiary of the lighting or
[0:56] anything and it's like anything when you pass a law in ordinance or a great idea
[1:02] there's always something that pops up that the overlooked are missed and we're
[1:09] going to re-address the lighting district, go through it, look at it a little
[1:14] bit harder and see what we can do to eliminate some of this that was definitely
[1:22] not beneficial to the landowner, correct? Yeah I mean a landlock parcel that sits
[1:29] way in the back of the road and doesn't even get the hit by the lights I can
[1:34] understand that but we should look at those closer. That's what I'm saying we're
[1:38] just gonna we're gonna as a the famous words we're gonna have to tweak it we we
[1:43] change it. Yeah I don't think there's too many. No there isn't but there is one in
[1:50] particular that we know of that has a valid point it's lighting up an empty
[1:57] field in the back of some place it and it doesn't even get the light. So I think that that's that's
[2:04] going to be a review and I don't know who's got to talk about that you and I have if we got to talk
[2:12] with who to set up this new light district which you went through and did all the work and the
[2:19] partial numbers and and we thought we had it well we found out where there was a small mistake we
[2:26] We had to correct it.
[2:27] So I feel.
[2:28] Right.
[2:30] We'll take a look at it and just know that if we take one or two or three out, it's going
[2:35] to increase the others to make up the difference.
[2:38] So, but I don't think it'll be that much.
[2:40] But some of the ones that are losing it, I still property owners in front of that land
[2:45] like property.
[2:46] So they're sure going to be paying.
[2:48] Yeah.
[2:49] Oh, it's just some of the ones that aren't in that exact area.
[2:53] But the assessment isn't that I'm not saying money's not important, but it's not that it's it's not like school taxes, where they
[3:04] They'll do the motion. Jill, can I make a motion? Yeah, make a motion. You and Karen look into this and report back next month.
[3:16] Well, is there a support to that?
[3:18] That second that move to supported Karen and I will re-address the lighting district.
[3:26] Try to bring it up to a little bit better understandable standards and again that's one
[3:35] thing just want the board to know it's not going to change anything drastic so I'll favor
[3:48] say I then.
[3:49] All right.
[3:50] All right.
[3:51] All right.
[3:51] Oppose.
[3:52] Same sign.
[3:53] Motion carries.
[3:54] Karen, I'll get with you Monday.
[3:56] Okay.
[3:57] I'll be there.
[3:58] Tells the next point is alternative starting date for the Board of Review.
[4:02] That's Karen, too.
[4:03] I guess I'm busy today.
[4:05] Yeah.
[4:06] It's your meeting.
[4:07] I think so.
[4:08] What this is about is we're supposed to have a resolution on file for alternative start date
[4:15] for a Board of Review because we start ours on Wednesdays.
[4:17] in the last days that you have to start on the Monday or Tuesday.
[4:21] We had one on file because we, Barbara and I found the minutes that were we adapted it,
[4:26] but we're unable to locate the actual resolution.
[4:29] So just to be on the safe side, we're going to have, we re-did the resolution.
[4:33] We're covered for the past because it's in the minutes,
[4:36] but I'd like to have an actual physical signed copy from everybody authorizing it,
[4:41] especially with the audit being next year.
[4:42] I'll make that motion to put a resolution on file tonight for you.
[4:48] Okay, that's perfect.
[4:50] It's already in place, so we just have to adapt it.
[4:55] I'll support Phil's motion.
[4:57] All in favor say aye.
[5:00] Aye.
[5:01] Aye.
[5:02] Oppose.
[5:03] Same side.
[5:03] Go ahead, Bob.
[5:06] Okay.
[5:08] Motion carries.
[5:11] Okay.
[5:12] The next one is a new name, a new name for the Cemetery Addition of Edison Road.
[5:21] And I have to tell you what you're talking about.
[5:24] Okay, I received a letter and it was sent to you, but you didn't get it.
[5:29] It's from Jim Early.
[5:31] He would like the name, the new secretary, North of Wright Cemetery,
[5:37] to be changed to the Myland Township Cemetery.
[5:40] It's not an annex to the Rice Cemetery, which was donated by the Rice family many years
[5:46] ago.
[5:47] The purchase and development of the property was by the Township Funds, and accessibility
[5:52] to the new cemetery is only from Denison Road.
[5:56] Myer grain farms prepared and maintained the property and Phil Heath seated the grounds.
[6:01] I believe the cemetery should be named the mine and Township Cemetery.
[6:05] Thank you, the Township Board, for consideration and awaiting your reply, Jim Erleich.
[6:12] Well, I guess I need to get my mail more often.
[6:17] The Cemetery's in my land township had it not been for rice cemetery existing.
[6:24] We expanded rice cemetery.
[6:28] Yes, we did use the township funds to purchase the ground,
[6:33] which Rice has originally had donated.
[6:38] I still call it, I personally still call it Rice Cemetery.
[6:42] If they want to add Rice Cemetery Mylin Township or something,
[6:48] but I am not in favor of changing the name to Mylin Township personally, any discussion.
[6:57] Okay, I see some valid points from this because it's like he said the rice family donated it and so rice cemetery should stay in the name of rice, but the new part portion that's been open is money that the township purchased.
[7:15] And so we need to recognize that that part belongs to the mine and township.
[7:20] So it all, it all, it all, it all owned by the township.
[7:28] We maintain rice, we maintain spalling, we maintain a vilia.
[7:34] We maintain that, the rice cemetery was named after the rice family that donated it
[7:43] and
[7:44] the township did not pay any money for that because my understanding.
[7:51] go ahead. I suggest that we table this and think about it. I totally agree. We don't
[8:01] have to make a decision. No, no, I totally agree with that because that caught me off
[8:07] guard. I'll be honest. Well, I only got the days requesting it, so I had to bring it off.
[8:17] No, I'm not blaming you, I'm just saying I wasn't, I wasn't, it's just we bought 2.1 acres
[8:25] to expand race cemetery and suites were kind enough to sell us a property.
[8:37] I don't think anybody really cares what the name is, it just, I like the tabling idea,
[8:45] Yeah, I wasn't prepared for this.
[8:47] I'll make a motion that we table the naming of the addition to the right cemetery.
[8:55] I'll support that.
[8:57] Yeah.
[8:59] All in favor, say aye.
[9:02] Aye.
[9:04] Opposed, same sign motion carries.
[9:10] All right, Barbara, what's next?
[9:12] Acceptance of the new budget at our next board meeting on March 11th.
[9:18] depending if all of the revenues and stuff are in,
[9:23] otherwise we'll just accept what we're operating with,
[9:27] which we've run in the green,
[9:29] and it's shown no problems on anything,
[9:34] to continue it until we get the books 110%
[9:39] of the date and on.
[9:41] I don't want to adapt anything with any unknowns in it yet.
[9:47] just for the record. Joel did have numbers so we have them so we just I wasn't sure
[9:55] and we didn't look at it to see where to plug them in at but I'll continue to
[10:01] work with Joel on that and have it but we should have numbers by the next meeting.
[10:06] Right that's what I said you guys are making great forward progress.
[10:11] Let's not
[10:12] Russian and we get everything. I don't see any reason if your numbers are matching that we can
[10:18] approve it on March 11th. There should be no problem.
[10:24] That's my feeling. And again,
[10:29] Barb and you and Joel are making giant steps forward. So we got to do, like you say, plug them
[10:39] in the right line, and we'll be looking good.
[10:43] Quit laughing, you're on video.
[10:49] Anybody else got anything to say?
[10:52] If some island, Quit's laughing.
[10:57] All right, here, you guys like to watch
[10:59] we stumble on this damn video.
[11:01] Issues from great entertainment.
[11:05] Thank you, Bob.
[11:07] Issues from board members.
[11:09] Barb, do you have any issues that we need to hear about?
[11:12] issue there is no no okay Bob you were smiling there a minute ago if you got
[11:22] anything oh I don't have anything except for a smartest question but so I'm
[11:30] not going to do that okay I got nothing today I got a question for you how
[11:35] you feel it? Well, never mind, absolutely good. The doctor, you're not bad then. No, the doctor
[11:49] I was at the doctor today and they approved me that finally after four months they're going to be
[11:55] able operate on my foot. Well good. Yeah, so I'm real happy. I'm hoping to be able to walk by summer.
[12:01] Well, we wish you we wish you well on that buddy. Yeah, thank you. Okay, Joel.
[12:09] Can you hear me on this one? Yeah, I could hear the echo.
[12:16] You just wanted to get close to the ladies. Right, right. Yeah, so last time we did, we changed the names on the bank.
[12:31] And I have two more banks and I'm not sure what they're going to, if they're going to want minutes or not.
[12:38] You know, like we did with the first merchants, they wanted minutes stating that I was being put on as a signer.
[12:47] And then flags are being made. They didn't want any of that. They just wanted a signature card.
[12:53] So I have to do chase an old national and I don't know if we put it in the
[13:00] minutes last time where it was all banks, did we do all banks?
[13:07] Well, let's make this real simple. I'll be good.
[13:10] We'll make a motion to approve the Treasurer's name, be put on all
[13:15] necessary accounts to pay the bills and do the transfers and stuff.
[13:25] just to just I don't pay the bill but well to to to sign for sign checks it just
[13:33] gives you anything that might come up we'll put it in a minutes at the
[13:36] treasure is approved by the board to handle all treasure functions as far as the
[13:43] money does that sound logical that sounds great I'll second that I've been moved

Uh, Karen, you're not officially a board member, but you're a part of the team. You got anything you want to add? No, I don't think I think we covered all my stuff on the agenda. Okay.

[17:00] attorney and the mta said during the zoom meetings all motions should be asking what they call it
[17:10] but roll call, that's the word I'm hunting for.
[17:14] Don't ask me why, but that's one of the reasons
[17:17] our meeting took four hours the other night.
[17:19] It was gracious.
[17:21] Wow.
[17:22] Got about that, but they did.
[17:24] Well, that's not an issue.
[17:27] We can do that that the next meeting will be sure
[17:30] and save roll call just to do it.
[17:35] And I'll make a statement now.
[17:38] did anybody tonight vote I that would not have voted by roll call vote any
[17:45] differently. All right hearing none that kind of covers our meeting that we
[17:52] all agree in the next meeting we will follow proper procedures. Let me know.
[17:59] and I'm saying thank you and they did nothing else hearing nothing else anybody
[18:10] want to call for an adjournment I call for the support been moved to the
[18:16] supported to adjourn at 7.56 p.m.,
