So, I'm 4 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:28,320 going to open the public hearings. Open the one 5 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:32,880 for local law number three of 2026 amending chapter 59 of the village code 6 00:00:31,279 --> 00:00:39,360 of the village of Mount Moors to modify the responsibility for dog care and 7 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:44,719 medical expenses. Um and then I'm also opening the public 8 00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:47,840 hearing uh for granting the cable television franchise agreement by and 9 00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:52,640 between the village of Mount Moors and Spectrum Northeast LLC, an indirect 10 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:58,239 subsidiary of Charter Communications. And actually, um, Lauren Kelly from 11 00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:01,920 she's the person for Spectrum who works on keeping these updated. She was 12 00:01:00,559 --> 00:01:10,000 supposed to be here tonight, but she had to cancel at the last minute. So, 13 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:16,119 um, anyone have any comments for the public hearing for either of those two 14 00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:16,119 things? 15 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,119 » Where are you planning on housing the dogs? 16 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,320 So that is with the um dog control with the county. 17 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:29,040 » Okay. >> Um what we're changing in the village 18 00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:34,799 code is that the way the village code reads now is any expenses from dog 19 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,000 control are upon the village to pay for and we're changing that to where it 20 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:41,560 becomes the dog owner's responsibility to pay for those 21 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:48,479 » dog owners going to pay for. >> Well, dog control would 22 00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:54,520 » What happens if they don't? Uh that's between dog control at the county 23 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,520 between Livingston County and them. 24 00:01:55,281 --> 00:02:01,880 [snorts] >> Right now, Livingston County sends the 25 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,880 bill to us. 26 00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:07,840 » Is there that many unwanted dogs running around? 27 00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:13,120 » Um it's not necessarily that as much as when there is a dog being boarded, it's 28 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:16,239 expensive. So, it's paying >> $35 a day. 29 00:02:14,319 --> 00:02:21,599 » $35 a day. There you go. >> A day. And then if it's euthanized as 30 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:24,239 well. Um so >> that village is going to suck up to $35 31 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:29,879 a day. >> That's how the code is written now. So 32 00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:29,879 that's what we're looking to change. 33 00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:39,480 » And Mark, there is a copy of the 34 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,080 Okay. 35 00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:52,800 » And then when hasn't seen the um franchise agreement is just a renewal 36 00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:57,360 that needs to be updated. So it's standard. Um both of those have been 37 00:02:55,519 --> 00:03:02,000 reviewed by the village attorneys as well. 38 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:06,400 Anything else with either of those? And I'll keep it open for a bit in case 39 00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:10,159 something comes to someone with regarding either of those public 40 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:13,680 hearings. If not at this moment, I'm going to move 41 00:03:12,959 --> 00:03:15,920 on. >> Where's Spectrum gonna set up? 42 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,239 » What's >> Where's Spectrum gonna set up? 43 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:27,680 » Where is Spectrum going to set up? >> Oh, they're already here. This is just 44 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:31,567 um we get a fee that they uh have to pay to the village. It's a franchise. 45 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:35,599 » So, the fee will cover the dog expenses. [laughter] 46 00:03:32,239 --> 00:03:40,400 » If only. It does not though. We get it now. It just has to be renewed. 47 00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:44,319 Do you get a lot of dogs that you pick up there? 48 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:48,640 » Um, I mean, Chief Officer Riley, if you guys feel welcome to step in. 49 00:03:46,799 --> 00:03:53,480 » There is a good amount of dogs in the village yet. It's 50 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,480 » it's a bit of a problem. 51 00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:00,560 » Stealing. >> Yeah. I mean, 52 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,480 » on street. That's one thing we don't have. 53 00:04:00,799 --> 00:04:06,640 » Yeah. I I I was just telling someone today, I don't see stray dogs on my 54 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:10,922 street. I see stray cats, but but I know there's some streets that do see them. 55 00:04:08,902 --> 00:04:10,922 [laughter] 56 00:04:10,959 --> 00:04:17,280 » Um, so yeah, but like I said, when when one is being housed, it becomes an 57 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:21,400 expense of the village and it should be an expense of that dog owner. 58 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:32,960 All right. Um, I just wanted to update everyone. I told you guys the sidewalk 59 00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:39,280 and streetscape inventory team has been going well. We've met a couple of times. 60 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:44,400 Um they're working on doing their inventory. Everybody took parts of the 61 00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:50,080 village. And then this past week, we worked on um getting a survey together. 62 00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:52,880 So we were looking at some other surveys that have be done that have been done. 63 00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:55,520 » Are they going to survey this the crosswalks too? 64 00:04:54,240 --> 00:05:00,800 » That's part of it. >> Yeah. You got the the three sites for 65 00:04:58,479 --> 00:05:05,759 the grants, right, from that I sent you forward. the Yeah, like the tab grant 66 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:08,479 and then Yep. Yep. And then the um the possible lighting, right? If they would 67 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:14,240 permit something like that and the crosswalks. Yeah. So, they're looking at 68 00:05:10,639 --> 00:05:18,720 um and Reverend Phillips, you're um have been participating in in this team as 69 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:24,080 well. So, feel free to comment as someone who's on that committee. Um 70 00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:26,720 they're looking at that's why it's not just sidewalk, it's sidewalk and 71 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,600 streetscape. So, they're looking at where they think crosswalks could use 72 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,520 improvement. Maybe where there's one missing, where they feel like ramps 73 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:38,479 aren't in place that should be in place. Um, if there's trees blocking the 74 00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:41,600 sidewalk, if there's trees overhanging, if there's brush, if there's trees 75 00:05:39,919 --> 00:05:48,639 missing and they feel like there should be trees added for shade and aesthetics 76 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:53,520 and health. Um, so there's all kinds of things and there's like measurements of 77 00:05:50,479 --> 00:05:58,080 how to rate the condition of the sidewalk as well. So, they're rating the 78 00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:01,840 conditions of the sidewalk. Um, so we'll have a whole Jillian Mitchell, she 79 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:05,360 lives, well, I won't say where she lives, but Jillian Mitchell is a village 80 00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:09,840 resident and she's compiling everything into an Excel sheet for us and getting 81 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:12,560 all that information. So, it'll it'll be good. 82 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:16,720 » Will there be grants available for well, the TAP grant like that you were looking 83 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:20,720 at and that we looked at last year is one that does cover sidewalk. There is a 84 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:26,000 contribution that goes with that and it comes out every two years. Um, so 2027 85 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:31,919 would be the next time, but this would also just give us good data if we're 86 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:38,560 going to budget for a certain amount of sidewalk expense every every year. And 87 00:06:35,039 --> 00:06:43,759 they'll be at the end of this committee, they we'll look at um all the data and 88 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:48,479 come up with some recommendations and what we feel would be appropriate for 89 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:52,319 » this is on every single street. >> Oh yeah, they're going through all. So 90 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:57,280 my question too, if someone's if let's say my sidewalk comes up and it has like 91 00:06:54,800 --> 00:07:01,520 my concrete is lifted, isn't it the responsible responsibility of the 92 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:06,960 homeowner to fix those sidewalks? It is. But just like many many villages around 93 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:12,160 the state, everyone runs into okay well property owners are not maintaining 94 00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:16,800 their sidewalks. So it becomes an issue that villages look for solutions for and 95 00:07:15,039 --> 00:07:21,680 towns, municipalities look for solutions for. So, um, actually, if you guys want 96 00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:27,759 to look at any of the, this is our sidewalk streetcape inventory team 97 00:07:23,919 --> 00:07:34,080 binder and, uh, the one that we're looking to for reference that Perry did. 98 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:37,039 Um, it goes into some of they researched some of the other areas and what they 99 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:41,199 did and the programs that they implemented, whether it was a 50/50, 100 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:45,759 whether it was the village just budget budgets $10,000 a year are going to go 101 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:49,599 to to sidewalk repairs, whether you're going to contract that out, whether your 102 00:07:47,199 --> 00:07:55,120 DBW is going to do it. There's a lot of factors that come into play that you 103 00:07:51,919 --> 00:07:57,759 have to decide. But looking, having an idea of what we're dealing with is a 104 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:03,919 good place to start. And then you can also look at um if we do come up with a 105 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:09,520 plan, how do you prioritize what gets worked on first? Do you say the zone 106 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:15,199 that just has the worst overall sidewalks or do you just prior do you 107 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:18,400 say anything that was a level five, the worst level condition wise, we're going 108 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:23,039 to start hitting all of those even if it's covering even if you've got one 109 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:27,039 zone that has 90% great sidewalks and one little one that's wrong. So anyway, 110 00:08:25,039 --> 00:08:30,720 it'll give us information Um, but that's going well. It's It's 111 00:08:28,879 --> 00:08:32,800 nice to see people. >> So, you're in the data collecting stage, 112 00:08:32,479 --> 00:08:38,080 right? >> Yes. Total data collecting. And we are 113 00:08:34,719 --> 00:08:42,320 we did work on a uh community survey that we'll be implementing as well. So, 114 00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:47,120 just getting that finalized before it gets sent to all of you guys and then um 115 00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:50,959 we'll determine how to get that out to everyone. 116 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:55,920 uh the Grow Live Go downtown transformation strategy which some of 117 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:59,360 you were at the um community input session that we had that's going great 118 00:08:57,519 --> 00:09:05,120 as well. There's another meeting coming up here soon uh next week I believe. Um 119 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:11,279 and we had really good turnout for the community input. Next week is focused 120 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:14,800 more on entrepreneur. Um, and this is through through the county, a program 121 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:19,519 through the county. And if you are interested in learning more, you can 122 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:25,120 reach out to me, but also you can go to Main Street Main Street America. I think 123 00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:28,640 it's just Main Street America. Um, 124 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:33,519 and it will give you tons of information. That's the program that 125 00:09:30,959 --> 00:09:41,080 they're working with is uh the Main Street America program, which has 126 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,080 » proven to be very effective. 127 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:54,640 It's or main street.org is main street. Okay. All right. That's all just for 128 00:09:52,240 --> 00:10:02,720 updates. Um I would like to accept the proposal for 129 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:09,360 the um agreement from Wilson and McCormick, the CPA group that I sent you 130 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:16,360 guys. Um, we've looked at a few and that was the one recommended from uh Jeff 131 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,360 Smith from Municipal Solutions 132 00:10:18,399 --> 00:10:22,399 and >> it's not EFDR, is it? The one that you 133 00:10:21,279 --> 00:10:28,240 just the one I just >> No, no, no. It was one of the first ones 134 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:31,959 we looked at and we got talked to a few others. Um, 135 00:10:32,079 --> 00:10:37,760 I think any of them would do a fine job, but I would just like to get something 136 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:41,040 signed as soon as possible. >> Is this this a full audit? Is it a full 137 00:10:40,399 --> 00:10:46,320 audit or >> None of these are a full audit. Those 138 00:10:42,399 --> 00:10:49,839 are like 15 to $30,000 for one year and then depending on how many years you get 139 00:10:47,839 --> 00:10:53,760 done, it goes there. >> Well, I just actually I just actually 140 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:57,600 after I talked to you on the phone, Jeff uh Justin from Baldwin's called me. 141 00:10:56,079 --> 00:11:01,839 Okay.

It was like maybe six or seven months 148 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:34,720 later, but they had a date from the state controller and they did it for 149 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:37,839 free, a complete >> Well, when the state controller decides 150 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:43,120 they're doing an audit, they do it well, it's still taxpayer expense, but it's 151 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:46,160 not it's not at a cost of >> We've already sent them letters, right? 152 00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:49,040 » Yes. and we've got confirmation from them that they received our letters from 153 00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:52,640 them. >> What is the agreement authorizing the 154 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,920 CPA?

Motion carries. >> [snorts] 169 00:12:41,839 --> 00:12:48,240 » So the board voted on that, not the individuals, 170 00:12:45,279 --> 00:12:56,240 » right? Y >> Okay. Then um Charlene or Judge Finnegan 171 00:12:52,880 --> 00:13:02,320 brought in this afternoon her uh grant application that we do every year 172 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:05,680 for the um for the court.
