Um this is the lowest amount of funding 78 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:10,800 that we have received over time. We have seen in the federal budget that 79 00:11:07,839 --> 00:11:16,240 CDBG has been zeroed out at the presidential level for the last two 80 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:21,200 years, but we have received funding um just in decreased amounts.

So if there 87 00:11:52,560 --> 00:12:00,640 is anybody interested in applying for funds, please let me know. Um we did 88 00:11:58,079 --> 00:12:06,399 receive one proposal this year uh to date from Habitat for Humanity. 89 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:11,279 The last slide shows our application preparation schedule.

I spoke to uh Jennifer Lions chief and she said she 352 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:36,720 explained to me because when I came when I go to the burrow they say go here when 353 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:41,520 I come here go to police. I spoke to Jennifer Lions. She said that the laws 354 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:47,119 need to be changed. The laws need to be changed. So how can we get together in a 355 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:51,760 room so we can fix that? Because then not everybody says oh we we're just 356 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:58,640 doing by by the law. So how do we fix it? Can we get together to fix it? 357 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:04,160 Are you willing to do that? >> I will reach out to the congressional. 358 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:07,119 In other words, are we talking Pennsylvania laws, which laws are you 359 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:12,400 looking to change? >> The one I Well, I spoke to Jennifer. She 360 00:37:09,599 --> 00:37:17,920 was um about a week and a half ago, two weeks, and she um she explained she was 361 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:21,920 very thorough in explaining what the issues are. She said she was going to 362 00:37:20,079 --> 00:37:26,079 speak to her officers. So, I asked her, okay, so how do you choose the law? so 363 00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:29,920 we can go and ask the legislators to change the law, but you need to give us 364 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:33,599 more garbage. How can how can we get rid of it? So, she said she was going to 365 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:37,040 speak to my officers and get back to me, but they still haven't back to her yet. 366 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:42,800 And I'm sure that's going to take a while, but in the meantime, we need to 367 00:37:39,599 --> 00:37:47,040 stop what's going on on Main Street and we need to have a plan. And I I 368 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:51,200 understand that you guys are doing what you can, but I don't think that you're 369 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:55,520 getting the support that you need. you know, we need more officers and I know 370 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:59,040 that there's a recruiting problem. So, let's let's find time to let's get 371 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:03,359 together and talk and try and find solutions. I don't see that from you. 372 00:38:01,119 --> 00:38:08,079 All you do is you don't even communicate with each other and that's very 373 00:38:05,119 --> 00:38:12,960 concerning to me. So, I hope that you set up an appointment, set up a meeting 374 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:21,520 where we can all be there, everybody to see brainstorming, fix it. 375 00:38:17,359 --> 00:38:30,880 Anybody else on the I'll be very quick.
