[1:01] saying I. >> Same. Motion carried.

[1:06] » Mr. Bryan, can you do the honor? >> The honor of swearing in Mr. Donald

[1:13] Clark. I will be happy to

[1:18] slower than usual. [laughter] Raise your right hand or repeat after

[1:22] me, please. I, Donald Clark, >> I, Donald Clark,

[1:48] skill to according to the law best of my skill Perfect. Thank you. Down at

[1:53] Mortown on this 9th day of September, 2026.

[1:57] Sign right there, sir. Welcome aboard. >> Thank you.

[2:00] » Welcome, Don. >> Thank you.

[2:03] » This honest

[2:07] warned him. >> I said I'll sit here cuz I'm not a

[2:10] quitter. >> We warned him.

[2:16] [laughter]

[2:19] » Okay. [clears throat] [laughter]

[2:23] Okay. >> Old business is we've got the landlord

[2:26] registration candidate letter approval. >> I think that's Mr. Brian.

[2:30] » Yeah. And I am behind the curve on that. Uh Lane has been on me with

[2:36] justification. I am concerned under the statute that we

[2:40] might not be able to recoup as much as we might like uh for failure to

[2:45] register, but I will make that a priority and have it quickly.

[2:50] Hey Elaine, please. >> We'll do

[2:54] » Matt. All right. All right.

[2:59] » Well, I'm Matt Lindell. I own lawn care here in town. I was approached by some

[3:04] of you about maybe putting together a plan for God's Hall.

[3:09] Kind of spruce it up a little bit. And I kind of went off of what we had

[3:14] discussed, but just a kind of an idea to get things going.

[3:18] Um, we went down there and measured it out. There's, you guys know, it's not a

[3:24] huge area down there, but there's enough room to play with to kind of spruce it

[3:29] up while still leaving some green area. But, um, if you look at this, there's

[3:34] tried to leave the turf and, um, we talked about maybe Christy and I talked

[3:37] about like kind of a little monument area. We incorporated that. All the the

[3:42] the there's a patio, the middle part and the monument area are all pavers and

[3:47] kind of class it up a little bit. You could put I mean we could kind of go

[3:51] into the patio is what like a 25 by 15. It's it's not huge just cuz you're

[3:57] limited by the space, but it's enough for two or three picnic tables. And if

[4:01] you wanted to, you could put like beastro lights and things and kind of

[4:04] » Is that the flag pole? >> Charm. Yep, that's the flag pole. That

[4:07] little black dot, that's the existing flag pole. thought maybe put the

[4:11] monument near it, but I mean there's not it's simple, but it's classy, but it's

[4:16] it would look nice coming down the hill. Um, like I said, that's just kind of a

[4:21] starting point. It's kind of landscaping is one of those things you can I mean,

[4:26] you could do 10,000 other swings. I mean, you can put lighting packages in

[4:29] it. You can put nicer plants, more plants, bigger plants. You can put in

[4:34] multra rock. I mean, it's kind of a, you know, getting ahead of this.

[4:39] » [cough]

[4:42] » We we tried to we're leaving like the out there the main leaving the original

[4:46] sidewalk along 52 to not be encroaching up on the state easement and everything

[4:51] and left the concrete along the building but other than that tore out all the old

[4:57] the rest of the concrete's getting pretty

[4:59] » ready >> getting pretty ready in there so we're

[5:01] ripping most of that out. >> Does this have any wheelchair

[5:05] accessibility >> this? Well, so that patio, if you look

[5:09] out by the road, there's a step cuz there's quite a grade difference. But

[5:13] the back, if if you leave the sidewalk along Dod's Hall, there's already a

[5:18] ramp. It looks like it's fairly recent in the last 10 years.

[5:21] » Should go right into it. >> Yep. And that would you could get to the

[5:25] patio from that by leaving that. Um the monument would go straight in. So

[5:31] [clears throat] everything would be everything as far as the landscaping

[5:34] would be accessible. Um, I know Dodge's Hall we

[5:39] discussed kind of is going to need a ramp on its own, but I don't think

[5:42] you're probably getting it from the front. As we discussed, it's probably

[5:45] that's probably a more of a construction down the side. So,

[5:50] it is accessible the patio from the back, but like I said, I know there's a

[5:54] little bit of play here with what you would do depending on what direction you

[5:58] take God's Hall with the historical thoughts.

[6:03] Um, >> no.

[6:07] I think >> like like I said, it's just kind of a

[6:09] touching point. I mean, things can change. I mean,

[6:12] » I think it's important to keep some of the green, not not make it all

[6:16] landscaped. Um because to have green space in a in a town or city or pavement

[6:23] type environment, you need that.

[6:26] » You could you could have picnic tables. >> Yeah, there's room for three tightly two

[6:32] comfortably. I mean, two or three picnic tables there. And like I said, they

[6:35] could have the umbrellas and you could put the

[6:38] » shading would be really important. You could do beastro lights on poles. You

[6:42] could do [clears throat] a pergola with beastro lights on it if you want.

[6:45] » I was saying we could add add a pergola in there. You could cover most of the

[6:49] patio. >> I don't know how much night attraction

[6:52] you want to the building. It's becoming the historical society, but of course

[6:57] during derby days, that's going to be a hot spot. So I know that's two days out

[7:02] of the whole year, but >> that's something. So but it it would

[7:06] pretty it up >> and you can put landscape lighting and

[7:09] things in downtown better than having some place to go.

[7:15] » They give the whole day downtown better look.

[7:17] » Yeah, it would definitely catch your eye as soon as you come especially. I mean

[7:21] it's I mean we incorporate you've got you've got so you got the existing

[7:24] concrete got pavers there's boulders in here there's there's flowers shrubs

[7:28] there's flowering trees >> you install land manage it

[7:32] » Yep. Yep. We can do it all. So

[7:37] » may I ask a question? Would there be lighting on the American

[7:41] flag at night? >> Yeah. Yeah. We'd put a light in no

[7:45] matter what on the flag through there. And then like I said from there you

[7:48] could jump around. You could put more or less lighting through the landscaping

[7:51] around the >> It's got a light on the building.

[7:54] » It's got a light on it. >> Does it right now out there? Yeah. But

[7:57] we could I said we could we could incorporate one from the bottom up if if

[8:02] you wanted to. But yeah, the flag would stay. The flag

[8:06] pole's pretty nice. So that would be the flag pole is about the only thing. The

[8:11] front sidewalk, the back sidewalk, the flag pole is about the only thing I'm

[8:14] keeping. If we >> go keep those benches, you

[8:16] » Yeah, you can have them. I'll move your house.

[8:19] » [laughter] >> Yep, they were. [clears throat]

[8:23] So, it's nothing. It's It's not It's not

[8:28] anything over the top, but it's, you know,

[8:32] maintenance wise. >> Yeah. I will say the turf on on this the

[8:38] turf like behind between the building, the landscaping is probably a little bit

[8:42] exaggerated on the size on this. It could probably be the turf would

[8:46] probably be just a t, you know, a touch smaller, but it's just a pretty quick

[8:51] computer rendering came out. So,

[8:56] um, other than that, that's a price quote on this.

[9:00] » I I can I can give you an exact number after we put the plants in, but I mean,

[9:05] it's kind of >> I mean, do you want me to I don't know

[9:09] if you can put it I'll say if you're going to put it out there or do you want

[9:11] me to spew out the number? I'll say yeah there I can and it's one of those things

[9:16] I mean you can we could if you had a budget in mind we could meet it because

[9:22] the patio is most the money on this there's about 1,000 square foot of patio

[9:26] between all three of them and so it you could tone that down and you could keep

[9:30] the center concrete if you wanted to and that would cut a lot of cost and

[9:35] » I was just curious so we have an idea >> I can get you I can actually send you

[9:40] the actual there >> and then is this something you guys are

[9:42] thinking for like fall or is this something we're taking for like spring?

[9:46] » That's like an ext

[9:50] [laughter]

[9:52] we can do whatever. We have we have room all the time. So yeah,

[9:57] » we're always busy but some I mean that's not it it's a big project but it's not

[10:01] like a >> it's not two month project or anything.

[10:04] I mean it'd be two weeks probably kind of thing.

[10:08] » So it's not you know and it's not going to

[10:10] » get a price to see how much I'm going to get a price

[10:14] more than a price. >> I can do that and I can I'll give you

[10:17] the high side and the low side because there are different like I said quality

[10:20] of pavers you can I mean it's probably a $10,000 swing on just quality of

[10:26] » materials. Mhm. >> So, and like I said, if you guys had a

[10:30] budget on it, we could stick to it and move up and down.

[10:35] » I don't want to feel it cheap. >> No, [laughter] put it in. Put it in.

[10:40] Right. >> Right. Right.

[10:41] » Right. that can go bad and hurt me. >> Yeah.

[10:44] » Yeah. >> Okay. So, you're going to make a motion

[10:47] that we're going to get quotes >> toward this. Okay. [clears throat]

[10:51] Get quotes from that. >> Yep. And I can I can send that over this

[10:56] email to you. All >> right. Motion carried.

[10:59] » I'll email that I'll email that to Morgan this week. So, and I'll give you

[11:03] like I said, I'll give you I'll give you a high on it. So, then you guys can talk

[11:08] » if it's too high or too low. It says more fans in there.

[11:13] I still need to find out about what we call solar street lights.

[11:19] » Lights. >> So, actually I have the man here.

[11:23] [laughter] Uh I'm subbing in or I'm pushing this

[11:26] off. So, no. So, actually this is Patrick's job. He's a looks like a

[11:31] caveman, but he uh he knows what he's doing with lighting. So what you run and

[11:37] operate a pretty successful um electrical mechanical business in what

[11:43] Southport but he's moved Logan his family's here now and so he's kind of

[11:47] getting into the community. What you been here six seven years probably

[11:50] » I still don't know where they practice more.

[11:52] » Still don't know where the soccer's he's still trying to find it. That's why he

[11:54] was late looking for the soccer practice. [laughter]

[11:56] » I take back home. >> So

[11:59] » So you're at the park if it's for boys and girls club.

[12:01] » So I didn't go that far. [laughter] >> I found this place. They go, "Yeah, I

[12:05] got to be." >> So, he um they've done quite a few

[12:08] street life projects. Lawrence, uh what? Southport.

[12:11] » Well, Southport's active now, Franklin. >> And then I did some scouting before the

[12:16] meeting, too. I looked around. >> He would be here, man. Works with

[12:20] engineering companies, Wesler, all of them. So, I will turn this part over to

[12:24] Patrick. >> Yep.

[12:26] » Appreciate it. He said the guy at Smart the guy in the

[12:30] back but uh actually I got

[12:34] the but I prepare this is kind of what to

[12:39] expect um as you start playing with a state

[12:46] road since it is US 52. Um, and if you guys don't kick me out of the meeting, I

[12:54] got a there's a trifold here. And for me, this isn't about us kicking a

[13:00] project. It's about leading Morristown in a good direction. So, you you make

[13:05] good choices with your street lights. But, uh, I did a pretty hard survey at

[13:10] New Palestine. Don't hold that against me.

[13:14] Um, and [clears throat] they were when I got done after about a 2 and 1 half hour

[13:17] walk on up and down, you know, around New Pal, I just they did a really good

[13:22] job. That's just a little bit about our family business, but um, New Palestine,

[13:27] they did, you know, they they did it right. Um, Matthew mentioned

[13:33] Wesler. We've worked with Wesler in in the past. Um the the thing is is with as

[13:40] the page reads with a project like this, you're you're you're dealing with a you

[13:46] know a state highway. So there's some things I think we might have to to

[13:51] follow. the more I dug into my prep, I mean, it' been great to say EM company

[13:56] could design, engineer, provide fixtures, and go the whole way. But I

[14:01] just the more I looked into it, especially with our electrical lead, um

[14:05] there's a little bit to it, but the the nice we call her our den mom, um Matt's

[14:12] team, she said, "Keep KISS." So, I say keep it simple, shall we? But in the in

[14:17] the grand scheme of things, it really comes down to fixture selection of of

[14:22] what you guys want. And like like Matthew said, we Franklin's have have

[14:27] stood the test of time. Uh D did a night survey. So did I. We not only looked

[14:32] during the day, but we went and just kind of saw oblong globes versus, you

[14:37] know, New Pal's more of a a top hat globe. But I guess, you know, in the end

[14:42] of it all, um I feel like with our history as a family business since 1969

[14:48] and and really for me it's it's just kind of the passion that it looks take

[14:52] this the wrong way, but looks better than the town next to us cuz you know

[14:55] New Pal's great but I just think you could do better.

[14:58] » You think New has too many? >> Well, so I [clears throat] measure she

[15:02] these over my texting because that's kind of how I [laughter] I've been hit

[15:05] the head a few times. A couple rounds went off behind my head. So that's how I

[15:08] operate. But the truth is, I want to just throw this out. As I looked at

[15:12] Shelbyville final prep today, they didn't hopefully this is in our town

[15:17] meeting here. We keep it in the vault. They did not put enough pole base uh

[15:22] concrete. If you drive around the circle, all the new lights in in

[15:26] Shelbyville on 9, they've already taken what's called wind sway or directional

[15:31] sway. If you guys just pee, don't you know, but it's I almost see a 16 sauna

[15:36] tube and we won't do that because in in our prep I all that will be done by

[15:41] Longville L or Lynville lawn care as far as underground concrete prep. But eman,

[15:47] we always go to skew more with our bases just for the duration and the test of

[15:53] time because it just pointed itself out when I did my little cuz I've been

[15:57] trying to come up with at least three samples for this meeting, but I'm a

[16:01] little I guess I'm just trying to get the right fit. And [clears throat] also

[16:05] PLS's who we've used in the past, they don't come off fixture numbers unless

[16:09] you give them pretty finite selections, which I've already talked to the team

[16:15] about it. You you want a receptacle up high for seasonal, you know, decor. We

[16:20] definitely want a military monitor. I love what you've done with the bands,

[16:24] but we can adopt that to the pole lights. Um, another big thing is there's

[16:29] there's always the the back flag. Obviously, you guys want some form of a

[16:34] flag on these, but there's just a couple selections that I would highly from our

[16:39] history of other, [clears throat] you know, street projects, I would highly

[16:42] recommend. Um, I guess the other thing too is we're not going to underdo the

[16:47] concrete. Uh, hopefully you have a local borer cuz EM company doesn't we usually

[16:53] sub out our boring and if there would be a local contractor that would want to do

[16:57] some underground poly boring. And then also as I pre-erveyed Morristown,

[17:02] there's a lot of um open grass that he that the well the hope is is that you

[17:07] guys are going to be beautify to where it doesn't all have to be poly

[17:12] underground. It can be open sight dig. So the big thing that we will do is we

[17:17] will have redundancy of conduit. Therefore, I already when I went by new

[17:21] pal, there's two with cones on it because unfortunately,

[17:25] um, as the as our boss in the back corner knows, accidents happen. So, we

[17:30] also would want to buy a percentage of what we would consider an excess

[17:34] fixture. So, we could have we usually do 10%. even though you you think you get a

[17:40] good relationship and yes, we'll we'll make sure you get that cast stamp

[17:44] fixture again when it breaks in seven years, we usually we purchase some some

[17:49] some saving fixtures. Um I think that was kind of the highlights

[17:55] of what I have, you know, kind of looked at and felt would be important. And you

[18:00] know, in the in the end of all this, you don't have to do it all at once. We

[18:05] can start in phases. there's there's you know it kind of comes down to for this

[18:10] project um just you know what you guys are wanting to do and the coverage of

[18:15] the town which I mean we we have an intent that follows you know the span of

[18:19] New Palestine which is about I think the measurement was like 3,800 ft was was

[18:25] kind of what I was measuring in New was 44 fixtures in New and to answer your

[18:30] question at first I thought there was too many but when you go and you

[18:35] actually look at it And it's the reason I'm bringing new pal up is it's the

[18:38] easiest for all of us to just pop over there at night just let me get a flavor

[18:42] and then you go down nine in in Shelby Kentucky and then you get that flavor.

[18:47] But the point is is the span's pretty good. Like it's it's really what's

[18:51] called takeback. So from from a street to the um you know to basically where

[18:57] the light is, you want a distance of where you're going to have a turn

[19:02] radius, but also you want throw and coverage until you get to the next

[19:05] light. So you're covering you're in and essent and and you know outgress of all

[19:11] of your of your street like corners and roads because you have so many. It's

[19:17] just, you know, really I think the the takeback point was anywhere from 12 to

[19:22] 22 feet. But again, New Pal's smart. They went where they had grass. They

[19:27] didn't tear up all of their sidewalks. They were very valuegineered when they

[19:33] did their segways and they had uh new red pads for for foot travel. They just

[19:39] they had a plan. And and I talked to um his name's Jim Robinson. He he takes

[19:45] care of the new Palestine, you know, up, you know, I guess the whole town. And

[19:51] they they had their own civil plan. They did their own design. But I guess, you

[19:56] know, for for when you go either boring or doing directional sight dig on your,

[20:02] you know, on the side of your town, you want to think about landscaping and

[20:06] sidewalks. And you you want to do it in unison because it's going to help the

[20:09] project because anything you take up you want to put back in a in a beautified

[20:14] manner or pour concrete and have a nice sidewalk that that covers over. But

[20:19] anyway, um it's not our first rodeo. We would love to lead help lead more, but

[20:25] really I was just trying to get to get you guys on a pace where it it's not

[20:31] it's a very straightforward project. It just I do believe as Matthew mentioned,

[20:36] Wesler included would be a big benefit to to the fact that we have to get some

[20:41] stuff that's stamped and approved through the state. But anybody

[20:45] » Franklin looks really good. >> And it it's funny the first ones I sent

[20:49] them and I I said to him these it's 20 years. I think it's 17 18 years and even

[20:55] New Palestine blew my mind [clears throat] cuz the nice lady who

[20:58] gave me Jim's name she goes I've been working here 6 years and then Jim on the

[21:02] phone said 12 or 13 but he just bought two new ones. That's why it's the

[21:08] perfect storm over here guys. I keep talking about new pal, but it's they had

[21:12] done it 12 years ago and they just bought two of the exact pictures. So, it

[21:17] gives you an idea that it is possible to to have a 12-ear span and still they're

[21:23] waiting basically for the cast aluminum to be made. So, they still have the

[21:28] cast, which that's what my relation our relationship with PLS is. But I mean I

[21:33] we still buy in a percentage of excess. Um because before you know it, somebody

[21:37] sees it and then there's another idea and you're out of excess because you

[21:41] guys are like, "Hey, can we plant five more?" This is this is where we've done

[21:44] this before. But you have to have a budget and you have to have a a first

[21:48] phase in mind. And again, you can see the phases on the back of what's

[21:52] actually going to be required just to dig. but uh or or to to call the dig as

[21:57] Matthew always says, he doesn't put a shovel on the ground until, you know, he

[22:00] calls 811 and gets his markings. But as any good landscaper should, right? But

[22:07] uh I guess for us though, um I think that's I mean about it. It's just, you

[22:12] know, 44 was what my count was for New Palestine. They do not have to be, you

[22:18] know, ex-military. So identic for me is having, you know, but the the it's a

[22:25] two-lane road here. Franklin is a four >> two two each way and there's turn

[22:31] segways in Franklin. So that's why in Franklin you'll see I think they're 16,

[22:36] but they're ds. So in certain areas you'll have dual heads and then but

[22:41] you're you're really you can't compare Franklin. You can compare the fixture

[22:45] style and and that's a what we call our Cadillac fixtures, but it's a different

[22:51] throw. So, you have a different but here in Morristown, you can very well go down

[22:56] one line or if buildings get in the way and boring's just becoming

[23:02] too expensive or not an option, just like in New Palestine, segue to the

[23:06] other side and do a single down there. It's it's really what the town what what

[23:11] we vote on. But again, you know, Lynville, Long Care, and IA, we can lead

[23:16] in a good good manner. I I spent a little time because again, I drive

[23:20] through town and we spend a lot of time coming to Morristown. So, I told

[23:25] Matthew, I go, "So far, I've been out here six years and nobody's burning any,

[23:29] you know, no stakes and I haven't had any pigs at my house. So, I don't want

[23:32] to I don't want you guys coming to get me now."

[23:35] » Well, I know anywhere I go in the state, Franklin will always come up. Well,

[23:40] » when it comes to this kind of stuff, they have changed that town

[23:43] » and it's because they've been there for that's probably one of in our market

[23:47] south because I'm originally from the south side, east side really, but south

[23:51] side. Um, it's probably the oldest and and I feel like they selected a very

[23:57] very solid fixture. They they paid for them. I mean, they're not, you know,

[24:01] they those there too. Um, and you see in New Palestine,

[24:06] there's constant upkeep. I mean, they have to black paint the bottoms. I mean,

[24:10] snow throw. Yeah, we will think about these things where New Pal didn't.

[24:14] There's our two types of the snow throw line. We will step back 16 inches

[24:18] matters, but it again, you would think center square. No, it's there's there's

[24:23] a reason why you're setting your lamps where you are, but really snow throw and

[24:28] random accidents and, you know, pe people not paying attention, that's

[24:32] that's part of beautifying your town. That that's going to happen. So, but uh

[24:37] the best part though is I told them I'm looking at new pal, but

[24:42] this is wash. Um more if if we're a part of this

[24:46] Morristown will look better than than any especially Shelbyville. Nothing

[24:50] against a big tap big town like Shelbyville, they they did they they

[24:53] underpor their bases and and it's apparent cuz that stuff's not even I

[24:58] don't know. You guys probably know better than me. It's not a year. No,

[25:01] it's I don't even think we're talking months. for 90 days and it's just the

[25:05] wind and we've gotten a considerable amount of wind and rain in the last few

[25:08] months. So because they didn't overpour their bases the the as he knows the the

[25:14] wet line and shell is rough because it's very wet and and the water line is

[25:19] crazy. But the point is is there's canered poles and the thing is is once

[25:23] they caner it doesn't stop. It will always so paying I mean I'm talking

[25:30] peanuts more for an additional base where where we have the allowabilities

[25:35] is a big is a big thing for our contract but and and again this is just a

[25:40] planning meeting. I just wanted to get you and Christie on there. Won't you

[25:45] put Don? We're going to let you guys get together and see what you come up with.

[25:49] » That'd be great. >> Okay.

[25:52] » I know originally [clears throat] um when you brought this up, solar was

[25:58] brought up and I'd like for you to speak that and why we're not leaning in that

[26:04] direction. We're just we're just internet surfers. So we [laughter]

[26:10] » may not be the best. >> If that was first brought up, I think

[26:13] that's an important point. >> German Irish.

[26:16] » Yeah, I'm German Irish, not Russian. So when Greg When Greg Shab speaks, you

[26:20] listen in my household. That's the CEO of EM. I probably should introduce I'm

[26:24] the janitor, but also the executive vice president. Um I don't let that I don't

[26:28] let that out much cuz I really like to work for a living, but so don't let the

[26:32] title fool you. But we can't do this job unless we tie into local power because I

[26:39] cannot guarantee you those will light through our dark winters. And the last

[26:43] thing I'm going to want to do is put EM's name on a product that I can't

[26:47] guarantee you is going to light every night 365, especially on the nights

[26:52] where we have an anomaly of darkness. Now, do you want to consider topfed, you

[26:59] know, uh street sign like new pal? just go for a good ride. They did it right,

[27:04] guys. Like I said, the the the red Segway safety pads, the canered uh level

[27:10] of all their concrete because they had to dig it up to put the pole bases in,

[27:14] so they put it back, right? The point is is uh every single one of their and and

[27:20] uh [clears throat] Carlton in the back will appreciate this, but every one of

[27:24] their signs is LED fed, so everything's brand new. They worked with somebody.

[27:28] They got a grant. There's some additional things cuz it's DOT, but

[27:31] everything's brand new. Everything has a top fed solar, so it's got LEDs that are

[27:36] it's just safer for people who are staring at their phone and being

[27:38] distracted even on a uh hit me if I'm wrong, it's 25 on Main Street or 30 30 m

[27:45] an hour on Main Street, sir. Yeah. So, really, you shouldn't be worried, but it

[27:49] just it looks good because not only is the street lights done, all their signs

[27:53] are done, all their walkways are safe, and then also it's just clean. I mean,

[27:58] they clean their landscaping and their their Segways up, but the reason that we

[28:03] don't want to do solar and Greg doesn't we don't want to touch the job unless we

[28:06] get tie in to power is because the guarantee. So, and then also we're a

[28:12] service company. We do about it's about 17 million a year. We do about 67 in

[28:17] commercial services and then 9 million in contracts. We want to we want to

[28:22] build something that you're happy for for a year and warranty it, but we want

[28:25] to keep you for 25 30 years. So, and in in the end though, we can't guarantee

[28:30] solar will be 100%, you know, active. So, that's just not something that we

[28:37] would put our company name on. It's a great idea. I understand it. I see a

[28:42] bunch of solar panels when I come to and from my house, but they're not for this

[28:46] application. MQ3 gave him and Matt and brings back

[28:52] something with the cost and stuff. >> Yeah, we could get into budgetary cost

[28:58] estimates, but Wesler would be a part of that and just selections, but really,

[29:02] [clears throat] you know, we we've seen this before and

[29:06] we feel like we could lead you guys in a in a good direction. So, is there any

[29:09] other questions that you guys got on it? [laughter]

[29:14] Well, uh, I'll leave my cell phone if you guys want to talk or

[29:18] » very good. Appreciate it. >> Thank you very much.

[29:25] » You guys, anything else? >> Okay, I'm going to jump ahead here.

[29:30] We'll bring Brian Shehan.

[29:35] He's going to explain [clears throat] our CCMG grant, what we need to do. So,

[29:40] it's due the 23rd, you said. >> Yeah. Um, I wanted to check. Uh,

[29:46] I know Scott has been working back and forth. Um, I I I know sending some

[29:52] emails, working with Craig, trying to come up with you're you're in this um

[29:58] this period of time was a little bit back and forth. One, he's needing to

[30:01] hear a final number that you have for match. If you remember last year, we

[30:06] came up with a number and from that number, then they can do the math to

[30:09] say, okay, you have this much per project because it's 25% match. Um,

[30:15] » so the most the most you go after is a million dollars uh of of grant, which

[30:20] would be 250,000 a match. So, if you think uh about that there, he sent out

[30:26] an email, and I'm I'm sorry, I do not have a copy, but I'm going to give you

[30:29] some some quick details. Basically, they go out and they do um an asset

[30:35] management plan. They come back, they look at the score, give your roads, and

[30:38] then they make a recommendation. And I think there's some back and forth there.

[30:41] Um but uh they have Rangeline Road, Central Parkway to East 1100 North.

[30:48] That's 2800 um

[30:52] yeah 2,800 somethings.

[30:56] Uh that is probably feet. And that total takes you to uh 661,000 which has a

[31:05] match of 132,000. So that's just that one that one section. Then Washington

[31:12] Street they cut into three different pieces so that if you need to

[31:17] kind of u ratchet your your spend up or down. Uh they have washing street town

[31:24] limits to chestnut that was uh the quantity is 2862 for 200 and a total of

[31:31] 226,000 the match being 45,000.

[31:35] The next section was 583. Um that's 61,000 with a 12,000 match.

[31:42] And then the last one was 637 ft at 74,000 match at 14,000. So if you

[31:51] agreed with those roadways and if you agreed with the total amount that is

[31:54] being suggested that is a total project of a million24 with a total match of

[32:00] 204,86525 >> and we did 200,000 last year since she

[32:06] had >> we did that last year. I figure we just

[32:08] move forward the same. >> But we just went to the

[32:14] our redevelopment meeting and can we use the payment fund and the we have or no

[32:20] is that >> you put on the range

[32:22] » on the range that's >> okay

[32:25] » industrial >> but you also got a waste water plant

[32:28] build and water plant build. Right. >> And that would make more sense for Tiff,

[32:33] » right? >> Monkey should participate in rank saying

[32:38] grants, you know, like can we use that? That's

[32:42] » Cody Dave. We just need to give him another

[32:45] » submit number, but we could go ahead and do this. It has to be done the 23rd. So,

[32:51] » and what will really happen here is like if you wanted some back and forth, we

[32:54] can do that. The number one thing that we need to do that might need to happen

[32:58] before the next meeting is if you said um this is where it gets a little

[33:03] confusing so I want to make sure if you were to say we can go up to 210,000 or

[33:09] two whatever it is >> and give him the permission to sign that

[33:13] financial commitment letter that's really all that that we're there there

[33:17] will be a letter where you need to commit to that. So if you can commit to

[33:20] more than that you can obviously do less um if that makes sense. Uh if you like

[33:26] what's being proposed, then you can make your motion to be exactly that number

[33:29] and we're good to go. And uh when when uh Scott gets back, I think he is out

[33:36] the rest of this week, but early next week, he's going to be trying to wrap

[33:39] these up. So that's the one major step that you need to do. Last year, you did

[33:43] the ordinance that allows um Ralph or whomever is the president to make that

[33:49] signature. So you don't have that that got us in trouble uh at the last second

[33:53] last year. But that's that's really the main thing.

[33:56] So, if you wanted all all four of those segments that I just mentioned and you

[34:01] wanted to do um uh a motion that would allow uh Ralph to sign a commitment

[34:08] letter of $24,86525 >> up to 205.

[34:13] » Yep. If you wanted to do that, then I think we would be covered. The only

[34:17] reason I was saying like if you still wanted to to work back and forth with

[34:21] Scott and know that you forgot one little segment here or whatever if you

[34:25] went higher. Um but if you're hoping to stay around 200 it sounds like they

[34:29] aimed at that for you. >> Can we buff it? Can we buffet it to 210

[34:33] just to save our so back and forth? >> That's not a huge difference from last

[34:37] year I would think. So >> that'll be my motion to go forward with

[34:40] what they've got offered and if we need a little buffer. So up to 210

[34:44] » up to 210 to give us the buffer just in case something comes up.

[34:50] [clears throat] >> Second we do the match up to 210,000

[34:54] » giving the president the authorization to sign the commitment.

[34:58] » That's what we do. Okay. >> Okay. That's what we want to do.

[35:01] » Your motion second Dave move second. All in favor signify say I.

[35:07] » Oppos same. Motion carries. And [clears throat] I apologize since we

[35:10] have a new a new representative of a haunted chair. Uh [laughter]

[35:15] CCMG is basically community crossing matching program. You can do it once a

[35:18] year and it allows you to get 75% of the project paid for by the state. Um so

[35:23] it's pretty sweet deal, but it's also very competitive. Last year we did get

[35:28] the first time they came up some new money. We got back in. Um but if for

[35:32] some reason we aren't successful, all of our work can move on to the next

[35:37] application. So, it is something that kind of keeps moving on, but um

[35:42] » the thing for the town. >> Yeah.

[35:45] » Um with that, >> what's up over here?

[35:50] » So, we we talked a little bit about that. Unfortunately, I was not able to

[35:53] get with our guy today. He he just left um for a two-day trip, but

[35:59] knowing from my past experience, we I think you dug in a little bit. They're

[36:03] they're usually have a date that they can that they have to have that

[36:06] completed by. >> Thought they hid that already.

[36:10] » That part I'm I'm not sure cuz I didn't have that with me. But if if they do not

[36:15] hit that, >> it's got two dates on it. That's where I

[36:18] was confused. It's got September 25th and it's got October.

[36:22] » So it says it is agreed time limit for substantial completion of this agreement

[36:26] based on bid shall be the 25th day of September. Um it is agreed final

[36:31] completion. So final should be there's just a few things we got to finish up

[36:35] here and there. >> What will happen with a lot of these and

[36:38] I I I don't know this specifically but I'm just speaking in large picture

[36:43] » is they will have several jobs. If they get ahead a little bit they'll pop over

[36:48] and try to get caught up on another job. Where they get most concerned is when it

[36:54] says uh for each calendar day work is not complete, a sum of $1,000 overrun

[37:00] will be um deducted. So you do have a you do have a penalty phase in here if

[37:06] they don't hit that. My guess is you'll see them jump back and and fulfill the

[37:11] the end of this agreement. On the flip side, if you were to say,

[37:16] well, we should have had we should tighten the schedule. We should have had

[37:18] rougher penalties. What that typically does is it raises your bids if they get

[37:24] too tough. So, I'm dealing with a different and I was I I was incorrect,

[37:28] different company in Batesville, >> but they're dealing with the same thing.

[37:31] And there's is is a major road that someone has pulled off of and they're

[37:38] working to get them back. Well, they can see the truck names in other places. Uh

[37:43] that one of them happens to be the interstate, which is like the estate

[37:46] project uh that's going on. Uh, but this is the key thing you want to watch is

[37:50] for this date. I will get some followup and get some um information back to

[37:55] Ralph as far as the communication for that. Um, because there likely is

[38:00] communication, but I know in the one I just followed up with, as I said, in a

[38:03] different community. It basically came back. We're on schedule. We'll have it

[38:08] done. But unfortunately, they've not been at that job site.

[38:12] » It won't take them long to finish. >> A couple weeks.

[38:14] » No, that's what kills me. I said, this looks like it's ready to go. you still

[38:17] got people can't get out of traffic >> and I drove by probably

[38:22] » three weeks ago [clears throat] >> and it looked pretty similar but the one

[38:29] it's the toughest part of this system is you can't force them to go faster than

[38:34] what's as our legal friend here will tell you if they if they're legally

[38:39] following that and then the next part is that penalty phase which is I've said in

[38:42] most cases you don't want them paying a penalty because it's already a giant

[38:47] paying for those people and um about a thousand bucks

[38:52] uh a day then would would uh begin kicking in. But I will I

[38:57] will get you what our communication with them has been and what they're saying.

[39:02] Um I just want to be real realistic that if it says that date, they've got until

[39:08] that date. If they show up and do all the work and 24-hour period, there's not

[39:12] much that can be done about it. The real trick is next year if you if you want to

[39:19] address that where you need to do it is at the very beginning and you talk about

[39:23] that and you put in whether it's more fines you move your date or you can

[39:27] actually put into your bids you're going to keep driveways open like there there

[39:30] are things that >> I think we should have put in there

[39:32] about keeping driveways open. I mean my mom yeah okay I got a personal thing in

[39:37] this. My mom's driving through her yard. Oh my gosh, she's got accessibility to a

[39:41] service drive, but there's other people don't.

[39:45] They're landlocked. >> And you can absolutely put some things

[39:47] into play just just be care. I had a different community that had something

[39:51] similar like this and they got really tough to try to hit a date and they had

[39:54] to rebid it twice before they got anybody to take them up on it. And then

[39:57] they they they let the rules um slide a little bit so that they could finally

[40:02] get somebody to bid on it. So, it is it's a very tricky situation. Sometimes

[40:06] you're the driver, sometimes you're the >> And some of it is operations cuz they

[40:11] could they could make those driveways a lot more accessible.

[40:14] » All you got to do is turn. >> And and again, here's one of those where

[40:18] if if it's a certain type of project and you get to pick your uh your contractor,

[40:23] I can I can name in in my past employment two or three that

[40:27] communication is the best thing they do. And you know, so if they got close and I

[40:32] had a chance, I wanted the one that was going to clearly communicate that, get

[40:36] out and talk to the the customer, but that's not always the case. But I will

[40:40] dig in, find out exactly where we are and what they're saying and get you

[40:45] » get that information. >> Okay. Anything else?

[40:48] » All right. Thank you.

[40:54] » Uh, new business in your packets. Lane got this. It's on the Howie two south.

[41:04] It's really growed up it looks like and she's wondering who's liable for

[41:09] that. That's something probably we need to to look into and see.

[41:16] » Is that I mean >> that's where Lane's Will Helms Lane's

[41:21] moment pass an hour there. >> All that graph is an hour.

[41:27] » Okay. Mhm. Now we have an easement one and two. So

[41:33] » now easement and alley be two different things.

[41:35] » Yeah. >> Do we have that on a map that tells us

[41:39] it's a eman or an alley?

[41:46] Can you look at that for

[41:51] two sides?

[42:19] Is this what they're calling the alley? >> That's the impression I'm getting. That

[42:23] that green space. When when I look at these photos, and I'm not familiar with

[42:28] it, but the photos cause [clears throat] in my mind more

[42:32] confusion than uh

[42:42] » that that alley actually goes west. That was part of debated several years ago.

[42:48] It goes west from uh that alley E2. It actually continues west, goes down the

[42:55] hill behind those houses. >> Dead end.

[43:00] » Well, it actually turns into our contested alley that runs south of Mor

[43:06] Street

[43:11] » because it's technically a continue all the way through. I don't know if it was

[43:15] ever officially abandoned, but uh if you look there where the

[43:21] pointer is, that's your alley two. Then it goes down the hill and then it turns

[43:27] into the next alley.

[43:34] » Wonder why that was never followed through.

[43:37] » Yeah, it comes off of Jackson and then it just goes it goes to the west.

[43:41] currently is stops at E2, but yeah, there's a telephone pole there and then

[43:47] um it just keeps going west

[43:52] turns into this is our contested alley right here,

[43:59] but it yeah, it technically goes all the way through here.

[44:02] Okay, >> and Shepard's has a garage real close to

[44:07] it. And then um the other one

[44:14] was there situation with the neighbor there where they don't want anybody on

[44:18] the

[44:23] » and then you got that bridges rental at 22080 Johnson the north side of that

[44:28] their property line goes into the alley

[44:34] and then uh this is Fishes is here's a question. Can we change that

[44:40] into an easement and then maintain it? It sounds like you need to maintain it

[44:45] anyway cuz it's infringing on other people. But if it's a if it's a an

[44:49] easement, you just have to maintain it as an ement.

[44:52] » The only thing in there the electric >> I see electric. That's all.

[44:59] » There's a water switch. >> Look at it. You want to look at it?

[45:03] » Yeah, I'll go look at it. >> Well, you got time. Why don't you take a

[45:06] look at it and Dave? >> Let me take a look at it. See what we

[45:10] got to work with. >> I'm not sure what you mean by turn it

[45:13] into an ease. >> Change it from alley. Just changes.

[45:16] » Well, I know I mean I know what you're saying. Let me rephrase.

[45:20] » Instead of having I mean if we're calling it an alley, I don't know why

[45:24] it's not paid. I'm thinking it it looks more as an easement because of the

[45:27] telephone. It still needs to be cleaned up cuz it's I would say it's town. I

[45:33] don't know. I'm sure talked about the testing for years.

[45:36] » The telephone poles are um enlightening

[45:41] cuz under state statute a public utility can place [clears throat] its

[45:46] infrastructure in public right away uh without any further approvals or

[45:52] anything like that. Now, an easement is created by a grant of the so-called

[45:59] dominant user by the subservient user. So, if you

[46:06] were going to try and create this as an easement, you're going to have to have

[46:10] all the adjoining and abuing land owners consent to that.

[46:15] Um, the question in my mind, and I have no idea what the answer is, but I'm sure

[46:20] there's something that reveals. How was the alley ever platted on any

[46:28] maps of the town at some point in the past?

[46:32] » We'd have to look at it and see. Don't worry.

[46:34] » Well, if you want to make it even more confusing, if you look to the right of

[46:38] East Jackson, in between all the houses, there's no man's land. also that bumps

[46:44] up to um Harbor

[46:50] that's in between over this area right here. This is all no man's land

[46:56] that just everybody kind of takes care of. But I know at one time it was

[47:03] been an alley. What was >> is that the alley that runs right into

[47:08] the garage? >> Uh no.

[47:10] » Okay. No, this is the one. Uh, let's see. 204 South Jackson. Their driveway

[47:17] is actually part of this alley or well, it was an alley at one time right

[47:22] through here. Well, I'm not sure some of these were ever actually.

[47:29] » I remember having a conversation about this year's

[47:34] house on the original plot and see what >> that would be.

[47:42] » I would say trying to get the group of neighbors to agree to something right in

[47:46] that area. >> Why don't we do that before we go up

[47:49] there? >> Yeah. I mean, if it's shown on a plat of

[47:53] the town, [clears throat] then that was created as a fellow right

[47:59] away. >> There's a really old map hanging on my

[48:01] wall with streets and alleys and stuff. That too in that room in there, too.

[51:37] » Okay. >> Cuz he said we can't those questions you

[52:06] two dates for settlement conference being September 21 or September 22. Um I

[52:12] haven't heard back as to a preference on those dates. That's a virtual meeting

[52:18] which makes it easier. Um anyone can participate from the council, but not

[52:25] all need to participate. So, uh, if [clears throat] there's more knowledge

[52:30] as to which date might work best, let me know. Uh, number two, and and this is

[52:37] kind of a mortgage question or not a question. Um,

[53:34] sending me a number and they didn't send it

[53:38] » and then the guy I was working with left.

[53:59] rentals. Um Christie had mentioned the IDM letter

[56:28] cancellization, but we Larry and I gave obstain so we could vote on it. Um, and

[56:35] it needs to be done before the end of the year with 90 days. So, it would have

[56:45] So if you pass a motion, I'll get on that immediately.

[56:48] » So I'm going to make a motion to cancel the leasing agreement for waste

[1:00:15] Who knows when somebody's going to increase the process water and send it

[1:00:18] down to what? And we still own all that acreage to that side which we could run

[1:00:24] some more pipes and do something else again. So

[1:00:26] » Okay. >> Okay.

[1:00:28] » Had to get you the price on today. That's called

[1:03:44] » I'd like to reschedule the executive session.

[1:03:47] » Yeah. Yeah. Okay. >> I apologize for the notice, but Morgan

[1:03:51] and I are talking about you've got a form and all you need to do is check the

[1:03:55] box. So, if you have confusion or questions about which box to check, let

[1:04:00] me know. But that's I developed that a year or two ago to just be a standard

[1:04:06] use any time. I mean [clears throat] fill in the top. So what uh what's a

[1:04:11] good date to next Wednesday? >> Don't we have the uh the hearing next at

[1:04:17] the next meeting? >> The 23rd.

[1:04:20] » The 23rd >> at 5:30. That's

[1:04:24] » And where do we need to post that, Brian?

[1:04:27] at the site that the meeting will be held. If that's here, then it needs to

[1:04:31] be outside. I don't have it in my notes where it's

[1:04:34] at >> or if it's at the town hall. Outside the

[1:04:37] town hall >> for the public hearing one. I don't have

[1:04:39] to put it anywhere else. >> No.

[1:04:41] » Okay. >> 5:30 here.

[1:04:43] » I have 5:30 September 23rd. >> The executives finish it after

[1:04:48] » or we have a meeting 14th at 6:00. I'm just being the 14th.

[1:04:55] » Next Wednesday. Next Wednesday the 16th. >> I can do that.

[1:04:59] » I'll do that. >> You said the

[1:05:00] » work everybody else. >> September.

[1:05:03] » Do that. >> You all write that down.

[1:05:06] » Um Brian, can you do the minutes for that? I have to be at that.

[1:05:09] » Yes. >> Mr. Sweden. Okay.

[1:05:12] » Okay. So, just clarify, we got 23rd public hearing that's required by

[1:05:16] statute on housing development and then 16th

[1:05:20] executive. Okay.

[1:05:23] » Okay. >> At six.

[1:05:24] » At six. >> Now, wait. Which one's Which one's the

[1:05:28] sixth? >> We got council meeting after that

[1:05:30] hearing. Is that the same day? >> On the 23rd meeting.

[1:05:34] » Yes. >> Yeah. What's the 23rd?

[1:05:37] » It's a public hearing and >> Ireing development the last time. Uh

[1:05:43] like one of the parts of SB1 which contained everything but the kitchen

[1:05:47] sink and probably that too requires all municipal entities in Indiana to hold a

[1:05:53] public hearing to consider and discuss potential incentives for affordable

[1:05:58] housing. >> That's joint with the planning

[1:06:00] commission. Yeah, statute's a little hasty on that, but it

[1:06:06] wouldn't seem to make 23.

[1:06:12] » Technically, what the statute requires is that the hearing be conducted before

[1:06:16] the governing body, which would be the council, but it seems kind of ludicrous

[1:06:20] not to include the plan commission. So, as of right now, September 16th,

[1:06:27] executive session at 6 p.m. September 23rd at 5:30 is the public hearing. 7:00

[1:06:34] will be at the council meeting. >> And I would certainly suggest that the

[1:06:39] notice also go up on the website. >> Okay.

[1:06:43] » Did you say 6 or 6:30? Executive said you said six.

[1:06:48] » I thought you guys said six.

[1:06:53] » [laughter]

[1:06:56] » Okay. >> Okay.

[1:06:57] » Any other miscellaneous? >> Move to ajourn.

[1:07:00] » Second journ. [cough]

[1:07:08] The beat.
