So, I'm the [4:05] district supervisor for the Brandon and [4:07] Surus Property Assessment Services [4:09] Office, and we're here today just to [4:12] discuss the impacts the reassessment [4:14] 2027 won't have on your municipality. [4:18] Um, it's nobody's first go at this. So, [4:21] as you know, I don't read these reports [4:23] verbatim. I just hit the highlights. You [4:26] have them in front of you. So, go ahead. [4:29] >> We'll we'll start with a little bit of [4:31] housekeeping. So, your border revision [4:34] is scheduled for November 9th. The [4:36] appeal deadline for that is October [4:38] 26th. So, just a reminder to not forget [4:42] to advertise. [4:44] Um, you guys are not having an open [4:46] house, but there is one in the town of [4:48] Carberry town office on June 23rd. [4:52] Anyone can attend. Um, there's also a [4:55] number of virtual open houses. So, if [4:56] it's easier for rate payers to meet or [5:00] discuss at night, they can set an [5:01] appointment and have an evening meeting [5:04] with an assessor. Um, sorry, what was [5:07] the date of that open house? October? [5:09] >> It's June 23rd from 10 to 2. [5:12] >> Thanks. [5:14] So, and uh, notices are in the mail [5:16] today. So, [5:19] by the end of the week at the latest, [5:20] rate payers are going to have them. um [5:23] if they're on my property MB, they'll [5:25] get an email within the next couple of [5:26] days saying that their notice is ready [5:28] to view in their account. [5:32] So, um we'll just get started. This [5:35] report provides you council with an [5:36] overview the impact the reassessment [5:39] 2027 is going to have on your [5:41] municipality. And for 27, the assessed [5:44] values of all properties are updated to [5:46] the new reference date of April 1st, [5:48] 2025, which is from the previous [5:50] reference date of April 1st, 2023. Um, [5:53] so the properties were last updated [5:56] generally in 2025. [6:00] These updated assessments will be used [6:02] for 27 property taxes. And this report [6:05] just provides some details on how the [6:07] taxable assessments have changed within [6:09] your municipality and across the [6:10] province and how it will affect your [6:13] municipal and school taxes. However, the [6:17] impacts only reflect a 27 modeling. So, [6:20] we make changes all summer. So, you're [6:22] still going to have an updated role in [6:24] the fall. Um, this model is also based [6:28] on your 25 mil rate. So just keep that [6:30] in mind that it doesn't know what [6:33] happened this year for the budget. So [6:38] reassessment it so it is done to provide [6:41] equity. So all properties just are [6:43] regularly reassessed just to ensure [6:45] they're keeping pace with the market [6:47] conditions up or down. Um fairness [6:51] because property taxes are paid [6:52] according to market value. Keeping the [6:54] assessments current just ensures [6:56] everyone is paying their fair share and [6:59] it makes for greater rate understanding [7:02] because updated assessments just make it [7:04] easier for people to evaluate what they [7:06] have assessed. [7:09] This reassessment reflects how the [7:11] property values have changed since the [7:13] last reassessment. And these changes of [7:16] course are due to supply and demand for [7:18] real estate or that is the main thing, [7:20] the market value, any new construction [7:22] or improvements to existing properties [7:24] or any removal or demolition or loss of [7:28] properties due to fire, things like [7:30] that. [7:31] The province's taxable assessment [7:33] increased by 12.1 billion or 11% and [7:37] your municipality's taxable assessment [7:39] increased by $68 million or 10%. [7:43] That first table that is the change to [7:46] taxable or portioned assessment that [7:48] occurred due to reassessment. So your [7:51] single family residential has gone up [7:53] 8.9%. [7:55] Your apartments which are five dwelling [7:57] units or more has gone up 1.5%. So [8:00] overall, your residential went up 8.5%. [8:04] Your farm properties went up 16%. [8:08] Commercial industrial went up 1.9%. [8:11] Institutional properties that are [8:13] subject to tax went up 14.1%. [8:17] Um, pipeline went up 2.5%, railway went [8:20] up 1.9% and designated recreation, which [8:23] is your golf course, went up 7%. [8:26] Overall, your increase was 9.8. I do [8:29] want to point out the flip between [8:31] institutional and apartment is mainly [8:34] due to properties that were fully [8:37] taxable as apartments that are now [8:38] school tax exempt because of the change [8:41] in the school tax credit. It was in [8:44] their best interest to go back to being [8:46] school tax exempt, but they fall under [8:49] institutional versus apartment. So [8:51] there's where you're seeing a bigger [8:53] shift in the [8:55] change in values. [9:00] You're talking probably [9:02] >> care homes or [9:04] >> not so much care homes but they're like [9:06] the assisted living anything like that [9:10] when the education tax credit was [9:12] applied to everyone regardless. It was [9:15] in most of their best interest to be [9:16] fully taxable because they got more [9:18] back. So apartments pay on a 45% of [9:22] portioning. When their school tax exempt [9:24] they pay municipal tax on 65% [9:26] portioning. So [9:29] when they no longer qualified because [9:31] they're not a primary residence, when [9:33] they changed that, it became in a lot of [9:36] their best interest to go back to being [9:37] school tax exempt. And that's where you [9:39] see a flip. It isn't that new [9:41] construction or new buildings showed up. [9:43] It's just that flip in class because [9:45] they went back for licenses to get that [9:47] school tax exemption. [9:49] Is it hard for them to get the [9:50] exemption? It's not. Most of them had it [9:53] and they went away from it because it [9:55] they were paying more in municipal tax [9:57] and it wasn't in their best interest. So [9:59] when you start doing the math, it was [10:00] better to be taxable. They got their [10:02] school tax back. Um so they already [10:05] qualified because they already met all [10:07] the criteria. Nothing had changed. [10:09] >> It's harder for new ones to become [10:11] school tax because there's sized [10:13] restrictions to what can be school tax [10:15] exam. [10:16] >> I just remember helping somebody get [10:17] there and it seemed not that easy. [10:20] >> Yeah. Once they are, it's just a matter [10:21] of they had to do the license again. So, [10:24] um we saw to [10:26] >> they applied to Manitoba Housing does [10:28] those licenses. So, yeah. [10:32] >> So, course assessment increases [10:34] decreases from reassessment don't [10:36] necessarily mean the tax increases and [10:38] decreases. It just provides the basis [10:40] for taxation. [10:43] um shifting of the three tax levies does [10:46] occur between and within property [10:47] classes, but only properties seeing [10:50] above average increase assessment [10:53] increases will likely see an assessment [10:55] or an increase in taxes. [10:58] However, just keep in mind this report [11:01] doesn't take into account any other [11:04] levies. So, this is solely based on bill [11:06] rate. It doesn't take in any special [11:08] levies or service fees or any of that [11:10] kind of stuff that you have. [11:13] Um so the general municipal levy was [11:16] calculated taking your 25 mil rate. So [11:20] it applies that tax level against your [11:23] 26 assessment to estimate what your 26th [11:26] budget would have been and then it [11:28] applies a little bit of an inflation [11:30] measure to apply that to 27. So it's [11:34] more gives you an idea of what's going [11:36] on. take it with a grain of salt because [11:39] it really I mean in this day and age a [11:42] model that's not overly um realistic for [11:45] inflation and everything else but they [11:47] have to have somewhere to start. The [11:49] school division special levy is done the [11:51] same way. Takes their 25 levy, applies [11:53] it to and then it comes up with your new [11:56] share of the school taxes based on all [11:58] the municipality or all the [12:01] municipalities subject to that your [12:03] school divisions levy. And then the [12:06] support levy does the same thing only it [12:09] bases it on how property subject to that [12:12] levy which is only your commercial [12:13] industrial. So that's your provincial [12:15] other school tax levy. how they've [12:18] changed across the board in the [12:20] province. [12:23] The next table, this says municipal and [12:26] school taxes, but this really is where [12:27] your school tax shift is going. [12:30] So for single family, residential, [12:34] they're seeing a 3% drop or reduction. [12:38] Your apartments are seeing a 7.3% [12:41] reduction. And overall, your residential [12:43] is going to see about a 3.2% 2% [12:45] reduction in school taxes. Your farm [12:49] properties are seeing a 3.4% increase. [12:52] Your commercial in industrial a 7% [12:55] decrease. Your institutional a 3.9% [12:59] increase. [13:01] Uh pipeline a 7.8% decrease. Railway an [13:05] 8.1% decrease. And your designated [13:08] recreation or golf course a 2.7% [13:11] decrease. Overall, your municipality [13:14] responsible for 2.4% less school taxes [13:17] in 27. [13:25] » Is that good when they go down? [13:27] >> Just means it's shifted. So, [13:29] municipalities within the same school [13:31] division may have gone up a bit more. [13:34] So, what they do is they've shifted the [13:36] burden around to another. So, they often [13:39] they go up and down all the time. [13:42] I will say that's not necessarily [13:44] realistic. School divisions tend to [13:47] raise their budgets. So, but it gives [13:49] you an idea that you'll be responsible [13:51] overall for less towards those municip [13:54] those school divisions. [13:54] >> The way they're all suffering for money [13:56] right now it's [13:58] >> doesn't make sense. [13:59] That's one thing [14:01] that should be up. [14:01] >> Yeah. So that's where I say take this [14:04] just kind of gives you an idea on where [14:06] you sit in relation to the rest of the [14:10] municipalities around that are in those [14:12] same school divisions. [14:16] The next table, this is the table you [14:18] control. So because of the way it's [14:20] modeled, it ends up with a total of 0% [14:23] change because it assumes no change to [14:24] budget, which is not a realistic [14:26] expectation in this day and age. [14:29] Um, [14:31] so your single family residential is [14:34] seeing about a.9% reduction or decrease [14:38] with apartments a 7.6% decrease. Overall [14:42] residential will see a 1.2% decrease. On [14:45] page five, your farm properties are [14:48] seeing about a 5.6% increase. Commercial [14:52] and instit industrial about a 7.2% [14:55] decrease. [14:57] Institutional, a 3.9% increase, [15:00] pipeline, a 6.7% decrease, railway, a [15:04] 7.2% decrease, and designated [15:06] recreational a 2.6% decrease. Um, [15:11] coming out at zero because again, it [15:13] assumes no budget change. [15:17] Properties with assessment increases is [15:19] less than 9.8% [15:21] likely will see a municipal tax decrease [15:23] and anything above that will likely see [15:25] an increase. [15:29] Um the next page is just the ways these [15:32] are the ways council has at their [15:34] disposal to try and impact any [15:37] significant impacts that rate payers [15:40] maybe couldn't handle. So of course [15:42] there's the phasing tax increases and [15:44] decreases. So the municipal assessment [15:46] act does provide you with the [15:49] flexibility to phase in substantial tax [15:51] increases property owners would [15:53] otherwise otherwise find very difficult [15:55] to absorb. So by bylaw you can phase in [15:58] increases or decreases in both municipal [16:01] and education taxes or tax changes for [16:03] all or some property classes or [16:05] individual properties. Um you got to [16:08] keep in mind you can only phase that in [16:09] over the two years because that's the [16:11] cycle we're on. So, it's there. It's not [16:15] used very much since we've gone to a [16:17] 2-year cycle. The municipal act tax [16:20] tool. So, this one is the one most [16:22] municipalities use. This is your special [16:24] service fees, your levies, your LUDs, [16:27] things like that. Um [16:30] your the municipal act provides [16:32] municipalities with some pretty good tax [16:34] tools and the bulk of municipalities [16:37] tend to utilize these to to mitigate any [16:41] tax shifts because they're maybe the [16:44] easier way to go about it. Um you can [16:48] establish a tax credit program. So the [16:50] municipal act does provide [16:51] municipalities with that ability [16:54] um to establish essentially a financial [16:57] assistance program with by bylaw um and [17:01] you can provide credit for municipal [17:03] taxes. So those those programs are [17:07] fairly flexible. I see them used mostly [17:10] to encourage development [17:12] more than anything else. And then you do [17:15] have the ability to vary class portion [17:17] percentages. So the municipal assessment [17:19] act does give you the authority to vary [17:22] the property class portions for [17:24] municipal tax purposes only. [17:27] Um so you can bylaw vary the class [17:30] portions to mitigate the shifting that [17:31] occurs between the classes. This is the [17:34] one that does require provincial [17:35] regulation. [17:37] Um our system is set up to accept it. If [17:40] you wanted to do this, you'd need to [17:42] start now because there is a lot of work [17:44] involved and there is no guarantee. At [17:47] the end of the day, the minister has [17:48] final say on whether he will accept that bylaw or not. So, um that's one you [17:55] would talk to an MSO. There [17:58] municipalities have done lots of work on [17:59] this. Nobody has implemented it yet [18:02] because you're just shifting the burden [18:04] around. So if you change the portion [18:06] from farm from 26 down to even 25 then [18:11] you have to make up that other percent [18:13] everywhere else in all your other [18:14] classes right so you're just shifting [18:16] the burden um but it is a lot of work to [18:20] do so there are m I have we have yet to [18:24] see it implemented there's been lots of [18:26] municipalities do the work at the end of [18:29] the day it hasn't [18:31] >> is it usually because it's not approved [18:33] at the end Nope, it has not. They've actually gone to a conclusion [18:37] that you're just shifting the burden. So [18:40] regardless of how you do it, you have to [18:42] justify what you've done to your [18:43] rateayers. [18:45] And so most of them have found the tax [18:48] tools in the municipal act are a better, [18:51] more efficient way of kind of mitigating [18:54] those shifts, right? So that's where you [18:56] see LUDs come into play versus so you [18:59] have urban and rural areas where you can [19:01] have a differential mill rate without a [19:03] differential mill rate. There's [19:06] different services in those areas. Um [19:10] tend to be a better way of spreading [19:12] that tax because [19:15] you'll always hear complaints from [19:17] everyone that well towns are subsidizing [19:20] the rural area and the rural area [19:21] subsidizing the towns. And the reality [19:23] is everybody has a little bit in both of [19:25] those areas to pay for. But maybe in the [19:28] rural area you have a ton of budget [19:30] towards gravel that people in town [19:32] aren't using. Well, maybe in those [19:35] instances it makes sense where you have [19:36] an LUD where the services that only town [19:39] people mostly utilize. It's a mill rate [19:42] versus Yes. But those are those are [19:45] where people have gone in the RMS [19:47] instead of the portioning because [19:51] you can tailor them to the services each [19:53] of those areas are getting better than [19:55] we're going to take this because when [19:56] you change the portion you're going to [19:58] have to revisit that every two years [20:00] also because if you change farm one year [20:02] and then all of a sudden like here farm [20:04] has gone up but it's gone up [20:05] significantly less than the average in [20:07] the province. another year it might go [20:10] up like when you start seeing this then [20:11] you got to start changing your portions [20:13] every two years so you have to do the [20:15] work for that bylaw every two years [20:17] right [20:17] >> yeah question so for wetlands and like [20:21] natural bush areas is that a different [20:22] portion [20:23] >> it's not a different portion it's a [20:25] different type of land so it's a [20:26] non-airable [20:27] >> right [20:28] >> if you have like lots of water on your [20:30] property you will see what's called [20:32] conservation land on your notice [20:35] >> because it's rated as water essentially [20:38] So although it's still portioned at 26% [20:42] it's maybe $30 an acre for that versus [20:46] you're upwards of 10,000 an acre for an [20:48] arable land. Right. [20:50] >> So that's already built in. [20:53] >> It's built in by the type of land. So [20:55] the characteristic of land that it is [20:57] really [20:58] >> and you look at that every two years as [21:00] well. See if anything [21:01] >> those are those are done generally on a [21:03] 10year average. Although [21:06] in the areas where we have irrigation, [21:08] we tend to try and look at the photos a [21:10] little more often just to stay on top of [21:13] things like irrigation, [21:15] >> right? [21:16] >> Um or when farmers call, then we will [21:19] review, but we we tend to go on a [21:21] 10-year average. So, we don't crank [21:22] somebody's arable land because they [21:25] happen to have two good years where they [21:26] got a and then they have eight years [21:28] where they have areas where it's too wet [21:30] they can't get through. We kind of [21:32] average it. And when we talk to them, [21:34] we're like, well, on 10 years average, [21:36] how many acres do you get seated? [21:39] And usually we're not far off. Usually [21:41] there's pretty good agreement between [21:43] like they might say, well, some years I [21:45] get more, but some years I get less. I'm [21:47] like, well, on average, would this be [21:49] about, [21:51] right? Because there's 500 and almost [21:54] 600,000 properties in the province. You [21:57] have maybe a 100 assessors. Not really [21:59] realistic to try and review every single [22:03] quarter section every two years. [22:05] >> Yeah. So in a similar like that but a [22:09] little different if say municipalities [22:12] and wersheds got together to want to [22:14] promote conservation. [22:16] So is there any change to that? [22:18] >> So what we do is when people enter into [22:22] conservation agreements [22:24] if they provide us a copy of that we [22:26] will change their land to match whatever [22:28] that agreement says. So there's there's [22:30] a bazillion and one different types of [22:32] conservation agreements out there. Um [22:36] some most are registered as on as cadets [22:39] on titles, but we're not provided those, [22:42] >> right? [22:42] >> So we don't go hunting for them. So [22:44] that's where a property owner who enters [22:46] into an agreement with Ducks Unlimited [22:48] and it's a no-brain [22:52] provide us a coffee because those [22:55] agreements outline exactly what you can [22:57] and can't do with that land. We will [22:59] adjust the characteristics to match what [23:01] that agreement says. [23:04] OVA though, we don't see any decrease in [23:06] sale price per acre if it has a [23:09] conservation agreement at all. It [23:11] doesn't sell for less, [23:12] >> but we will adjust the characteristics [23:14] to match what it says. So, if it has so [23:16] many acres, it absolutely is not to be [23:19] drained, [23:20] >> right? [23:20] >> And we then we just adjust it to a [23:22] non-airable land type if we had it as an [23:25] arable land type. [23:27] >> Right. Okay. [23:29] We might be doing that right now. [23:38] » Continue on. We got another seven [23:40] minutes. We got another [23:41] >> the last page is just the the way [23:45] everyone is being notified or these are [23:48] the I guess the tax credits. Now, these [23:51] are not our programs, so I don't know a [23:53] lot about them, but the homeowners [23:55] affordability tax credit is the new [23:58] school tax credit essentially. Um, it is [24:01] increasing to $1,700 for 27. [24:05] Again, it's only on primary residents. [24:07] So, [24:09] um, [24:11] and then [24:13] in 27 is where clear as mud, they're [24:16] changing it. So, if you have a property, [24:17] a primary residence valued over a [24:19] million dollar, once you hit that [24:21] million dollar, they start stepping down [24:23] how much of a credit you get towards [24:25] school taxes by $3.40 for every hund for [24:29] every,000 of assessed value over 1 [24:32] million. [24:33] I believe 1.5 million is the threshold. [24:36] Anything over 1.5, you're not getting a [24:38] homeowners affordability tax credit [24:40] anymore. That is the new It was in the [24:44] news. Um, it doesn't affect a lot of [24:47] primary residences [24:49] around here, but there will be some that [24:52] we may see that [24:55] around cities. [24:57] >> Yes, mostly it's it's around the the [25:00] urban center and around Winnipeg. [25:02] >> When you say 1.5 million, is that [25:04] combined land and house or is that just [25:06] >> but under residential class? So it's not [25:08] if you live on a farm and you if your [25:10] residential portion probably isn't 1.5 [25:13] your overall value might be more than [25:15] that but it's only on your [25:16] residentation. [25:20] » Yeah. So and then the renters [25:23] affordability tax credit is increasing [25:26] in 27 to 675 plus an additional income [25:29] tested topup for seniors of 38571. [25:34] Um the senior school tax rebate is um [25:38] income tested credit for senior [25:40] homeowners which is $235. [25:43] So that that's all done at income tax [25:45] time. The farmland school tax rebate is [25:48] a tax credit of 40% of school taxes on [25:50] farmland to a maximum of $2500. [25:53] And then there's also the school tax [25:55] rebate on farm properties which is an [25:57] additional tax credit for farmland [25:59] owners which provides a rebate equal to [26:01] 50% of school taxes on farmland. [26:04] One of those comes off right away and [26:06] one they have to apply for. Not sure [26:08] which one is which, but [26:13] then the last page is just how people [26:15] are being notified. So, the provincial [26:16] website is up to date with the the sales [26:19] used to set the 27 [26:22] um values [26:24] probably tomorrow cuz I think they [26:26] updated on Tuesdays. But anyone within [26:28] the municipality can then go see the [26:30] more current sales that set the rates. [26:33] um the my property MB. So that is how [26:38] people can sign up to get electronic [26:40] notices instead of in the mail. They can [26:43] see all the properties. So if they own [26:44] multiple properties across multiple [26:46] municipalities, probably a good way to [26:48] do it because they can see everything in [26:49] one spot instead of a whole bunch of [26:52] notices mailed. Tollfree customer [26:54] service line so nobody has to incur a [26:58] longdistance charge to talk to an [27:00] assessor. Um, people don't seem to have [27:03] trouble getting a hold of us. So, I [27:04] don't I'm thinking that number is out [27:06] there or they don't care. Um, the [27:09] assessment fact sheets. So, that's the [27:11] first point of contact. Even we send [27:13] those out when we talk to people. That's [27:15] the first thing we do cuz it explains [27:16] things more easy to understand than [27:18] maybe any assessor is going to explain [27:20] it to begin with. They're also on our [27:22] website so you can direct anyone to go [27:26] see any of those fact sheets. The [27:28] assessment notice. So, those are in the [27:30] mail today. They have a ton of [27:32] information. I highly encourage people [27:33] not to just throw them out when they see [27:35] that this is not a tax bill at the top. [27:38] Um, [27:40] I encourage that every year and somebody [27:41] inevitably is going to throw it out and [27:43] then call looking for their notice [27:46] because they realized it wasn't a task [27:48] and tossed it. But [27:52] open houses. So, again, there's one in [27:54] here in town at the town office. Anyone [27:57] can attend an open house anywhere in the [27:59] province. They aren't there's no [28:00] pamphlet this year, like they have to go [28:03] online to see where they all are, but if [28:06] they're down east and they happen to be [28:08] somewhere where there's going to be an [28:09] open house and they want to talk to an [28:10] assessor, they can just show up. The [28:12] assessors all have access to everything [28:14] across the province. So, no, nobody's [28:17] going to get turned away because it's [28:18] not their municipality. [28:20] Um, and then of course the municipal [28:23] administrator. So, you guys will feel [28:25] the first calls. Um, by all means, [28:28] assessment related issues, send them our [28:30] way. Please try and handle the tax [28:32] questions cuz they get really grumpy [28:34] when we send them back to you the second [28:36] time. [28:37] Even if we do try to answer some of [28:39] them, it's just the reality is that's [28:41] those aren't our questions to answer. [28:43] So, [28:45] that is what your reassessment is doing [28:47] in a nutshell. [28:49] >> Thank you very much. [28:51] You must have done that before. Right on [28:54] time. [28:55] >> I I do a lot of them. Although this is [28:58] only about my third one this time cuz I [29:00] was off for the first half of them with [29:01] surgery. So [29:03] >> that was a little painful. [29:06] >> It is what it is. [29:12] » Okay. Pretty sure. [29:18] » Okay. Any comments? Otherwise, thank you [29:20] very much for coming out. [29:22] >> Thank you so much for presentation. [29:24] >> Thank you. [29:24] >> By all means, you guys at any time you [29:26] have a question, I'm more than happy to [29:28] take a call at any point. [29:32] >> Thank you. [29:40] » Hey, come on in. [29:43] >> Your turn. They're waiting for you. [29:46] >> That's your chair right there. [29:48] >> All right. [29:49] Morning. Morning. Morning. Thank you. [29:52] >> We'll go around the table and introduce [29:53] one another here before we get started [29:55] here. Carol finally got a name to the [29:58] face now. Talked a few times on the [30:00] phone. [30:00] >> Yeah. [30:02] Davidson [30:04] Deputy Reef [30:05] >> Graef [30:09] Malcolm Murray Robin. [30:13] Okay. [30:16] West Thomas. [30:19] >> I've never been to one before, so I [30:20] don't know what you're expecting from me [30:22] or what I need to do. Uh, some little [30:25] history. I contacted my counselor back [30:27] in 2014, the summer of 2014, which I [30:30] believe was March Campbell at the time [30:32] to get access into my property because [30:34] the water table on what's happened, but [30:36] it's come up over the years. So, I was [30:38] next to impossible get my place. We cut [30:40] hay there. We sell the hay, stuff like [30:42] that. So, some of my clients were having [30:44] a hard time getting in there with their [30:45] trailers. So, she put it in. She put the [30:48] road in for me on 53. [30:51] It's And it's not like miles and miles [30:52] of road. It's like a quarter mile of [30:54] road section. It's not [30:58] like miles and miles of road I'm asking [30:59] to be maintained. [31:02] And then the rest is history. It's uh it [31:04] was great after she done that. It was [31:06] perfect. She put it in. It's either the [31:09] last week of August or the first week of [31:11] September when it got put in. They had [31:13] trouble putting it in because they [31:14] contacted some ties there that they [31:16] wonder if they could use cuz they got a [31:18] cat stuck or something trying to put it [31:19] in. So, it's just how wet things were. [31:22] And uh it was great for several years. [31:25] 2020 come along, the road started to [31:27] deteriorate over the years. It was [31:28] maintained year round. It was two or [31:31] three times a summer it get graded and [31:33] winter. And then it was then 2020 come [31:36] along and it started to deteriorate over [31:39] time I guess just like roads do because [31:41] it wasn't uh there wasn't a bunch of uh [31:44] fill or gravel or whatever put in there. [31:47] And that's both goes through a little [31:48] swampy area the section and it's shared [31:52] by [31:54] uh 53 shared by four season ranch. What [31:56] used to be four season ranch George and [31:58] Barb Fenwick now it's Ken Gear. So [32:01] there's two of us on that little quarter [32:02] mile section of road that we would like [32:05] to get fixed. And uh and I got pictures [32:09] in the fall last fall after about 3 or 4 [32:11] days after rain how muddy it does get [32:13] and water just sits in it. [32:17] Oh, you got him. Yes, that was last [32:19] fall. That was about And this is this [32:21] spring. [32:22] >> Yeah. So, [32:25] >> so what's trouble getting in? And uh and [32:27] I was in contact with previous foremans. [32:30] I got all the emails here as well. I [32:32] know I know I didn't send Belle that [32:34] copy of the emails cuz it's quite [32:36] lengthy. I started with Glenn and then [32:38] there was a Andrew or an Anthony I think [32:41] or something and now Matt we've been in [32:43] contact with and nobody's ever said no [32:45] we can't fix it and Harold and they said [32:49] yes we'll look at it and we'll see what [32:50] we can do and I have to keep contacting [32:53] them again to see well what's happening last couple last summer [32:58] I talked to Harold he says oh they [32:59] haven't done nothing yet cuz I'd phone [33:00] him he says oh I guess you're phoning [33:02] cuz they haven't done nothing I said no [33:05] and And my biggest concern is back in [33:09] the day when I was younger. May be hard [33:10] to believe. I look forward to a muddy [33:12] road back in the 4x4 days. But now that [33:14] you're older, you have a little more [33:15] concerns. I have grandchildren. I have [33:17] kids that we use the place year round. [33:19] Almost every weekend there's somebody at [33:21] the cabin being used. Either we're [33:23] cutting hay or was just recreational and [33:26] stuff. And I was always worried about [33:27] the grandkids getting hurt. Well, it [33:28] ended up being me last summer. Heard [33:30] fall getting hurt. I had a cutting head [33:32] there. We had trouble getting out. Lucky [33:34] enough. in the truck. Had been there [33:35] with the car or something, we wouldn't [33:37] have got out. But anyway, so that's [33:41] pretty much it. I just like to get [33:43] something done with it. [33:45] >> So your cabin you mentioned, like is is [33:47] that a is that a built cabin by spec? Is [33:50] do you pay tax on the cabin? [33:51] >> I do. [33:52] >> You do pay tax to the municipality? [33:53] >> I do. [33:54] >> Yeah, I pay uh tax on that. And um yeah, [33:58] I guess just a cabinet cuz we do have a [34:00] shop there now, too. small garage and [34:02] that that be made out of those hoop [34:04] sheds on stuff like so there's a [34:06] workshop there. [34:07] >> It's not like it's just a piece of [34:08] ground with a greenery on it. [34:10] >> Just just one fact like just and your [34:13] the neighbor that's out there as well. [34:15] Does he have a place that is [34:17] >> Oh, yes. [34:18] >> Like it's a home built to by permits and [34:21] >> Well, I believe when Fenwick's own it, [34:23] it's a it's a mobile home and there's a [34:27] big shop there. I don't know what the [34:29] shop would. It's must be 40 by 60 shop [34:32] or something like that. And the new [34:34] neighbors now that are there, Ken [34:35] Regger, they just use it as a getaway [34:38] place. But Fenwicks lived there for [34:40] years and years. They bought it around [34:43] the same time we bought ours. I've been [34:45] there for about 40 years now. Part of [34:48] this community. So I've own that piece [34:49] of ground. [34:52] So, [34:56] » so I know questions there is [34:58] >> comments there like there was building [35:00] permit taken in I gather on your [35:03] buildings that are in there. [35:05] >> Jeez, I don't know. Well, no, probably [35:07] not cuz it's on skids. The cabin is on [35:09] skids. It's not a foundation, but I am [35:12] paying taxes on it. [35:14] >> Okay. [35:15] >> Yeah. Yeah, that's that's the biggest [35:16] question cuz there are ones we have not [35:19] fixed in the past is if they're not, you [35:21] know, a taxable primary home that the [35:24] access isn't a guaranteed thing if it's [35:26] not a taxable structure in there. [35:29] >> We've denied people before fixing back [35:32] trails when it's not um [35:34] >> under those circumstances. [35:36] >> Yeah, that does make a bit of [35:38] difference. [35:39] >> True enough. Yes. No, I know I'm paying [35:40] taxes on on the cabin. I have been I [35:43] have had a sister come in there twice. [35:44] Okay. [35:45] >> Since I own the place. [35:46] >> Okay. [35:47] >> And tax on the building. So [35:49] >> So what would you if you had a say in [35:52] how that road was built? [35:53] >> Does it need what would you expect? [35:57] >> Well, just a crown on it. I need to see [35:59] the pictures so the water doesn't lay in [36:00] it. Like my last communication with [36:02] Matthew was [36:03] >> it was brought back up in 22. he brought [36:06] to council back then and they denied me [36:08] on gravel, but he said he made the [36:10] comment there that it would be uh he [36:12] would talk to his greater operator and [36:13] have a maintain the crowd and not have a [36:16] wind roll so the water could run off [36:18] >> and that would be a bonus even just that [36:20] much. I would really love gravel, but I [36:24] understand climbs are tough just like [36:26] everybody else. It's but I'd even be [36:28] willing to cost share the gravel part of [36:30] it if because I don't have the equipment [36:32] to do it, right? [36:33] >> Yeah. [36:33] Yeah. [36:33] >> So, even if I paid for part of it, you'd [36:36] help me with it or something cuz I just [36:39] want to get access to my place. Like, we [36:41] use it year round. Like I said, [36:42] >> we actually have easier access in the [36:44] winter, [36:44] >> right? [36:45] >> Believe it or not, believe it. [36:48] >> Did you do you expect it to be graded [36:51] all the way down to your gate or [36:52] >> It has been. That's what your day one. [36:55] >> Okay. Just just checking. [36:56] >> Yeah. No, sure. I appreciate the [36:58] questions. Absolutely. [36:59] >> Cuz I forgot to ask Matt that earlier. [37:01] >> Mhm. Yeah. I know it was created uh like [37:04] I said right ever since they put their [37:06] way in two or three times then like I [37:09] don't even know if they even buried it [37:10] once last summer last couple summers. [37:13] >> Okay. [37:15] >> But in the winter time they have I [37:16] talked to Harold last winter there and [37:19] we got it there was starting to [37:21] accumulate pretty deep in there and we [37:22] usually don't have a problem getting in [37:24] there in the winter even when the snow [37:25] is deep cuz it's so sheltered. It's no [37:27] big dish or anything. But like I said, I [37:30] have more trouble we have more trouble [37:32] getting in in the summertime than in the [37:33] winter. [37:34] >> Yeah. [37:35] So, it's uh like I say, I'd be [37:38] more than willing to even pay for part [37:40] of the traveling if we can come to Green [37:42] to do that. [37:43] >> I just would like to have access, safe [37:45] access, [37:46] >> 100%. [37:47] >> And the you guys when they put it in [37:49] 2014, they built it up. There must be at [37:51] least 3 ft cuz it is quite swamped [37:55] low land. [37:57] I was back in there a month ago with [37:58] that. [37:59] >> Oh, you did actually. [38:01] >> I was back. [38:01] >> Okay, perfect. [38:03] >> Good. [38:04] >> Yeah, it's not like I said, it's not [38:05] miles and miles of road I'm asking to [38:07] get maintained. It's just [38:09] >> quarter mile. [38:12] >> How big's your cab? [38:15] >> I think it's about [38:17] 600 square f feet, something like that. [38:22] >> You're a nice spot back here. It [38:24] >> is. Yeah, we got it all. fishing little [38:26] power is all solar and well and [38:28] everything in there. So, we enjoy it. We [38:30] use it a lot. So, sewing hole there and [38:33] grandkids really like it now. So, [38:35] >> I bet you actually my grandkids use it [38:38] more than I do lately, it seems. [38:40] >> Anyway, it's not something we can [38:42] promise here right today, but we're now [38:44] talking about it with everybody. [38:46] >> I understand. Like I said, it's been [38:47] going on [38:50] communications. [38:50] >> She's been phoning me many times. [38:55] You did very good for not knowing what [38:56] you wanted to start at. [38:58] >> You did good. [39:00] >> Well, I've been kind of running things [39:01] through my head for since Val said I was [39:03] going to have to come to a meeting. So, [39:04] I've never been invited to a meeting. It [39:06] was always just through email or phone [39:08] calls to Harold. [39:09] >> It's better in here. [39:10] >> No, it's [39:12] all on the same page, [39:13] >> right? [39:14] >> It's not he said she said and phone [39:16] calls. And that's why I kind of tend to [39:18] do things for email cuz you have a [39:20] record phone call. [39:25] » All right. [39:26] >> All righty. [39:27] Thank you very much for coming in. [39:29] >> Thank you. Take care. How much rain did [39:30] you get out there? [39:32] >> I'm not sure how much we got. I mean, [39:35] >> quite a bit. [39:37] >> My son was up there in the weekend and [39:39] he said there was lots and they don't we [39:40] don't have a rain gauge. So, [39:42] >> yeah. But he said he could tell where [39:43] the grass and the water had run and you [39:45] can see the glass grass laying flat from [39:47] the streams of water running. So [39:51] >> So lots and when I come in this morning, [39:53] there's a big dark cloud going over that [39:55] way again to the southwest. So [39:57] >> he's looking pretty heavy. [39:59] >> Yeah. [40:00] >> All right. Take care. [40:05] » Okay. [40:07] Joel have to be here for these next two. [40:09] >> Yeah, I'm sure. You can't start ahead of [40:11] time, but I [40:13] >> wait for five minutes. Look for help. [40:16] >> Um, [40:18] >> where in the world? [40:20] >> No, we lucky enough for just a few miles [40:25] outside. [40:28] » We had we were close enough. We had like [40:30] the like the dirt front. [40:34] >> So, it was crazy. The radar was looking [40:36] this way, but it was shifting. If [40:38] there's [40:40] going up, but the clouds underneath us. [40:48] » Be careful what you ask for. [40:58] » I went for a tour visit. Yeah. [41:01] >> Just a few miles from us. It was 2 and [41:03] 12 in early. [41:07] Did you hear our sound? [41:28] » Yes, it's a tornado. [41:33] forunately [41:35] came down south of their yard. [41:50] » Oh yeah. [41:53] » How are you? [41:54] >> Good. [42:08] Just a reminder of our public hearing [42:10] protocol. [42:11] >> Hey guys, [42:12] >> just a reminder of what public hearing [42:14] protocol is about. You're sitting here [42:16] to hear things. [42:19] >> Hear the facts. [42:20] Promises. [42:22] >> Just listen. [42:23] >> Listen. [42:26] No direct communication from council [42:28] right [42:31] >> communication through [42:33] to here. [42:37] » Gotcha. [42:42] Commissioner last [42:51] 7 in the morning. So the new unit will [42:54] be working from [42:57] >> usually I have something [43:00] going to be a little less productive. [43:27] Why would a life shop be about $1,08? [43:30] $900 for [43:42] the summer time. [43:46] The aim is cold. [43:50] Plus 3 to 15. Yes. [43:54] >> Yeah. [43:55] >> I don't know.

[46:12] >> Yeah, you pretty much said it all. Uh, [46:15] initial use. [46:18] Uh, 03-26-NL [46:22] Brookdale Holdings to establish a waste [46:24] water surge lagoon to treat the domestic [46:28] and slaughterhouse wastewater within the [46:31] AR zone. [46:34] Think we go around the table of [46:36] introductions here too before you [46:37] forget. Start with Harold Harold [46:40] >> Council Jar Davidson [46:44] almost there. Reef [46:46] >> Ray Grayson Reef [46:48] >> interim CEO [46:50] >> Malcolm Murray counselor [46:52] >> Robber [46:54] >> Joey Spruz Joel Spru [46:58] >> sorry can I get your names again [47:00] >> Joey last Waldner [47:05] » yeah Joel Waldner [47:10] » we have a second Yes. [47:14] >> You sign. Okay. [47:16] >> Y [47:18] >> Kathy Dale. [47:20] >> Ron Dale. [47:21] >> Was it Kate? [47:24] >> Joel Penner. Cypress plan district. [47:29] » I'm sorry. I missed your first name. [47:31] >> Ron. [47:33] Thank you. [47:35] >> So, who wishes to speak for? [47:37] >> Go ahead. Who would like to speak? Do [47:39] you want to be Kathy Ron? You want to [47:42] speak? [47:44] >> Whoever is here to speak in favor of [47:47] that's who speaks first. [47:48] >> Who's speaking in favor? [47:50] >> Okay. [47:51] >> So So do we have to talk because we [47:56] >> we we want it [47:57] >> if you wish to. Yes. [47:59] >> You don't have to. But this is your time [48:02] now to speak on behalf of your [48:04] application. [48:05] >> Yes. Because the the reason for this new [48:09] uh domestic lagoon is the old one was uh [48:14] out of commission at least [48:17] 10 years ago. Conservation came along [48:20] and told us we need to do something [48:23] and it only has one cell now. So that's [48:27] improper. [48:29] So now we got a license from the [48:32] province [48:35] and [48:38] we need to use it because the other one [48:40] might just give up. [48:42] >> So you now have a a license in place for [48:45] the new one. [48:46] >> Yeah, I bought a copy over just here. [48:49] Okay, thank you. [48:54] And also, yeah, those letters have been [48:56] coming for about closer to 20 years. And [49:00] finally, when we decided we could afford [49:02] it, it cost almost 1.3 million to build [49:06] out of cash flow. And [49:09] we're also uh working with a company [49:12] from the US for order control. We just [49:14] started a program [49:16] 2 weeks ago, so it's kind of too soon to [49:19] tell, but according to them, uh they're [49:23] going to control close to 100% of the [49:25] odor with the [49:27] uh solution [49:28] >> with the additives that we put in. [49:32] » And then with this new one that's [49:35] proposed, [49:37] it's not going to be like as high odor [49:39] as the other one for the hogs, but we [49:41] still plan on treating it, too. [49:46] So, [49:54] » any other comments on YouTube? [50:03] » We're opposed opposition. Ron Kathy, you [50:06] have something you want to say? Go [50:07] ahead. [50:09] >> The odor. Can't call it an odor. you [50:12] have to call it a stench. And it's been [50:16] ever since they put up that first [50:18] lagoon. [50:20] Uh they put in two rows of trees. They [50:22] put in deciduous trees, which are no [50:25] leaves in the winter time, so you get [50:27] the smell in the winter time. Anyway, [50:30] um [50:34] they put in fast growing trees and I [50:36] realize they did that to try to help the [50:38] still this the smell, [50:41] but two rows of trees for the smell [50:44] that's there, I don't think would ever [50:47] come close to getting rid of that smell. [50:54] Um, other than putting in the two rows [50:57] of trees, I'm not sure they've done [50:58] anything else to try to curb the smell. [51:02] >> We will have to wait and see if this [51:04] additive is going to work or not. [51:06] >> It hasn't. So far, [51:08] >> well, [51:09] we're still noticing it. [51:10] >> I'm noticing it a little bit, a [51:12] reduction. We'll just let them speak and [51:15] then you'll have a chance to [51:18] >> um [51:21] >> basically the smell and uh risk of [51:24] contamination on the creek and uh [51:28] which is very close to it. [51:30] >> Yeah. [51:36] » These are two two major complaints or [51:38] concerns I guess lack for a better word. [51:42] and our yard site's really not worth [51:44] anything because nobody would want to [51:46] buy it. [51:48] And to me, that's that's huge. [51:53] And we're getting close to retirement [51:54] age. [52:00] All right, that's pretty well covers. [52:08] » Good. Getting close. [52:09] >> Yeah, that's it. I think [52:11] >> that's all you got for now. [52:12] >> For now. [52:13] >> Great. Thank you very much. [52:17] » Now, if you two would like to make [52:19] comments back towards comments. [52:23] >> You were you had something. What did you [52:25] want to say? [52:26] >> Oh, I was just commenting that I feel [52:28] the odor control is I've been noticing a [52:31] slight reduction [52:33] and like Ron said, it it just needs more [52:37] time to take effect. [52:40] So what happens if this doesn't work say [52:42] in two months time [52:45] >> or a year from now [52:49] » the [52:50] >> then we we worry about it then but but [52:53] why are we talking about [52:56] a hog lagoon when we're talking about a [52:59] domestic lagoon [53:00] >> because that was even closer to us. [53:02] >> So so this hearing today is about the [53:05] new one. [53:06] >> Okay. [53:06] So, we are here to today to hear [53:09] about the facts and to allow a new [53:12] lagoon to be built. That's what this [53:15] hearing is for. [53:16] >> Okay. [53:16] So, you've had your chance to [53:19] speak against. You've had your chance to [53:22] speak for and to respond. We have [53:24] another hearing in 3 minutes. [53:32] » So, you've you've both had your [53:34] opportunities to speak. That was [53:36] amazing. Okay. [53:38] >> We're not here to argue back and forth. [53:41] No, [53:41] >> we're just here to hear your comments. [53:43] Go ahead, Ron. [53:45] >> So, we're we're done. We can go now. Is [53:47] that what you're saying? [53:48] >> The hearing will be concluded in a [53:49] minute or two. [53:50] >> And then we have another hearing [53:53] for variation. [53:55] >> However, that this one will close and [53:57] then that one will open. [53:59] >> Correct. [54:00] >> So, this is a conditional use. [54:03] >> Variation is a different thing again. [54:05] Yes. [54:11] » Is it okay to save this? Um, we're just [54:13] trying to follow the protocols are laid [54:15] out to us by the province for for [54:18] >> and they're pretty set and we're trying [54:20] to follow those protocols to a tea this [54:22] time. [54:23] >> Yeah. [54:23] >> Okay. We're not trying to be mean or [54:25] anything. We're just trying to follow [54:26] those protocols. Okay. [54:30] >> Okay.

However I got pushed [1:10:16] away toward the foreman of the public [1:10:19] service to contact them directly. So I'm [1:10:23] too nice. So I'm like okay I contacted [1:10:25] um [1:10:27] Mr. Matt I believe Matt. So, and um I [1:10:32] told him situation and he he kind of [1:10:35] also shoved me down. I'm like, "Hey, we [1:10:37] own that part uh before I get to the [1:10:40] problem. We own it. We maintain it. So, [1:10:42] you don't have to worry about it." So, [1:10:43] this kind of the deal. So, the problem [1:10:46] was that I was coming here to address [1:10:48] that during the winter season when the [1:10:50] snow plow can plow the roads, which is [1:10:53] great. They put that blade way too low [1:10:56] on the ground and they dig up all the [1:10:59] gravel and they push it all in the [1:11:01] ravines on those ditches on the side of [1:11:03] the road. So if there is too much snow, [1:11:06] I understand. But if there's no snow, I [1:11:08] don't know why they plow it. And this [1:11:10] past season, they plow it every day. [1:11:12] Even there's no snow, they keep pushing [1:11:13] and every year those rocks are getting [1:11:16] more and more. So they keep putting that [1:11:18] blade low. So my solution was can you [1:11:22] make sure that the next season and the [1:11:24] next season put that plate like 1 in or [1:11:27] 2 in cars still drive you put that [1:11:30] thickness on the gravel so it doesn't [1:11:32] make damage to cars and properties and [1:11:35] you'll be safe so you don't have to [1:11:36] worry about uh clean up after that. [1:11:41] So [1:11:43] Matthew Matt pushed me away and shut me [1:11:46] down. So I came here another week or two [1:11:48] and I believe I talked to Miss Valerate [1:11:51] and he told me send it by email. I'm [1:11:53] like okay because my job is not to talk [1:11:56] to the foreman. You have over 2,000 [1:11:58] people in the RM and everybody have a [1:12:00] complaint talk to the your employees. I [1:12:03] think those employees going to lose [1:12:04] their mind and that's not acceptable. [1:12:06] They come here to address their concern [1:12:08] and you vet the problems and address [1:12:10] their employees accordingly. However, [1:12:14] as Miss Valerie said, I sent an email. [1:12:16] I'm like, "Here's the concern. Here's [1:12:18] the picture." I sent the picture. I [1:12:20] believe I don't know if you have them. I [1:12:21] didn't print them because you have them [1:12:22] on the email. [1:12:24] >> Few weeks later, no answer. So, I I [1:12:27] replied back. I'm like, "Hey, any update [1:12:29] on my concern?" No answer. And I don't [1:12:33] know if you're tracking my email. I [1:12:35] believe I send it to everybody. So, I [1:12:37] start sending it to you, sir. And after [1:12:39] that all the words and then I'm like the [1:12:44] answer is like oh you get the answer. [1:12:46] I'm like no I didn't get answer the [1:12:48] answers that I got or that's unfortunate [1:12:50] there's rocks in your property. [1:12:53] So Matt said because that's ground land. [1:12:55] That's a public land. You guys own it. [1:12:57] You you maintain it. And he he he mows [1:13:00] it in the summer. They don't mow it. [1:13:02] I've been living four years there. I've [1:13:04] been mowing it every year. And I bet [1:13:06] anybody live in the countryside wait for [1:13:09] you guys to mow it. Every residential [1:13:12] home they take pride of their property. [1:13:14] They mow that ravine and ditches around [1:13:17] the house for the the m maintenance of [1:13:20] their and the view of their property. [1:13:23] So what I wanted in the beginning is if [1:13:28] somebody come address these rocks, [1:13:31] sweep them back on the road. My neighbor [1:13:33] had to buy a sweeper and another [1:13:35] neighbor had to rent a sweeper for to [1:13:37] sweep them. I don't have as much [1:13:39] chocolate as they have and I try to rake [1:13:41] it by hand. It's undoable. [1:13:44] So [1:13:46] I understand you're not going to please [1:13:48] everybody. You're not like you have [1:13:51] maybe small little equipment and a big [1:13:53] area to cover. But the way the situation [1:13:56] was handled I believe it's unacceptable. [1:13:59] I should have been listened to from the [1:14:00] beginning. Even the answer is not [1:14:03] doable, at least I should have like I [1:14:06] said, hey, I'm here to address a [1:14:08] problem. I should been listened to. Even [1:14:10] the second time or the third time, I [1:14:12] should been answered to back because I [1:14:14] asked for an update on my request [1:14:16] multiple times. And I have a baby. I [1:14:18] brought the baby here multiple times and [1:14:20] she's like 3 months old at that time and [1:14:22] I shouldn't have to. So that's my [1:14:25] concern. [1:14:30] I believe Mr. Rod, you said something in [1:14:32] the email that you did something in the [1:14:34] past. [1:14:34] >> We clarified that this morning. Yes, I [1:14:36] did. And I was [1:14:37] >> I don't know what you meant. [1:14:38] >> Well, it was two two years ago that was [1:14:42] really soft and the graders made ruts in [1:14:45] soil and they pushed it up. And that's [1:14:47] what I was misunder I was I misspoke [1:14:50] when I said rocks. It was more like saw [1:14:52] that the guys went out and cleaned up. [1:14:55] So if you go if you go through any of [1:14:57] the subdivisions and look, there's [1:14:59] always rock and like it's right if you [1:15:02] can leave your blade up. [1:15:03] >> But when you're traveling in snow with a [1:15:06] car or a truck or big trucks and your [1:15:08] road is heavily used truck route through [1:15:11] there [1:15:12] >> and that the snow holds the rocks up [1:15:15] like it doesn't rocks just don't sit on [1:15:16] the ground all the time when there's [1:15:18] snow. So they they sometimes they all [1:15:21] make a mistake for sure, but it's almost [1:15:24] impossible to keep rocks out of the [1:15:26] grass. Almost impossible. They can try [1:15:30] all they want. They can stay up that [1:15:31] high, but there's still going to be [1:15:32] rocks in that snow. [1:15:33] >> So wouldn't that be any other program to [1:15:36] clean up the rocks back to the road? [1:15:38] Because you maintain that ditch with [1:15:40] plowing with the mowing it in the [1:15:42] season, [1:15:43] >> but you maintain the side attached to [1:15:46] the road, not the side to work the [1:15:48] houses. I see it like I I I live in the [1:15:50] county. I I take the county road to [1:15:52] work. [1:15:52] >> I live very close to you. So, yes, I [1:15:54] understand. [1:15:54] >> So, I see it. [1:15:56] >> So, I we talked about this morning and [1:15:59] it's hard to it's hard for us to [1:16:02] >> Well, we don't any other subdivisions [1:16:05] like where this has occurred. We've [1:16:07] never gone in and cleaned it up. It's [1:16:08] been the same response. We don't go and [1:16:10] clean up the stones. No matter what at [1:16:12] the end of the fall when they're grading [1:16:14] the roads, we don't know when the snow [1:16:15] is going to come. One side of the road [1:16:17] or the other has to have that wind row [1:16:19] gravel left. And when the graders are [1:16:21] traveling at the speeds they do to get [1:16:23] across the roads cuz they have to [1:16:24] maintain a certain speed otherwise they [1:16:26] can't throw the snow back. [1:16:28] >> The the grater has tendency also to [1:16:30] bounce and to maintain that perfect [1:16:31] level to stop the stones. can't help it [1:16:34] because they're over that road hundreds [1:16:36] of times over the winter to keep it [1:16:38] clear. And there may not be a drift in [1:16:39] front of your house, but there might be [1:16:40] one at the tree line half mile down. So, [1:16:42] they got to get they do it all. It [1:16:43] doesn't matter. [1:16:45] >> And I [1:16:46] >> I don't think we can get worry about [1:16:48] getting into all the excuses and things [1:16:52] happen. It happens everywhere and it's [1:16:54] just a fact of life that's out there. So [1:16:57] I came here with the expectation to hear [1:16:59] those answers but I offered the solution [1:17:01] which now I understand the solution is [1:17:03] not doable either. However the way it [1:17:05] was handled that my other concern which [1:17:08] you want to address it now or discuss it [1:17:10] however you want to improve your [1:17:12] >> customer service kind of handling in the [1:17:15] future that I I'll leave this up to you [1:17:17] that this is all I have to say. [1:17:20] >> I ask for updates I get shut down [1:17:22] multiple times and it's all I have to [1:17:23] say. [1:17:24] >> Okay. [1:17:24] >> Great. Thank you very much. [1:17:27] >> Thank you for coming in. Thank you. [1:17:29] >> Thanks a lot. [1:17:39] » Okay, might as well go back to finance [1:17:41] and accounts here. Resolution 173 2026.

[1:20:25] >> I have a mover please. [1:20:27] >> Jiren seconder [1:20:29] >> Harold [1:20:32] questions comments anybody? couple. [1:20:35] >> Go ahead, Rob. [1:20:37] >> We're allowed to talk down. [1:20:40] >> They got a there's got to be some kind [1:20:42] of guarantee put in place that they [1:20:44] attempt and and what I write down here. [1:20:46] How long like how long is it? We can say [1:20:51] how long it can be 20 years, but who's [1:20:53] going to maintain it for 20 years, [1:20:54] right? [1:20:55] >> So, their license will be covered by the [1:20:58] environment though. [1:20:59] >> Yes. [1:21:01] province has authority over that. They [1:21:05] in their license, it tells how they act [1:21:07] that. [1:21:08] >> Yeah. [1:21:08] >> Well, yeah, but we we're allowed to add [1:21:11] stipulations to that license. [1:21:13] >> Yeah. [1:21:13] >> Right. [1:21:14] >> Well, not to the license, but you can [1:21:15] add to this reservation. [1:21:17] >> So, like he said, they they've got that [1:21:19] stuff now they're using. Well, [1:21:22] >> you would hope that for the neighbors [1:21:23] sake that are concerned that they would [1:21:25] be diligent on that. But is there like [1:21:28] can we [1:21:29] >> how do we police it and make it work? [1:21:31] >> Like they still got to put trees in. [1:21:33] They still whatever they have to do [1:21:35] >> for mitigation at the [1:21:36] >> mitigation like do everything they can [1:21:39] like it's you can go by there and you [1:21:41] can still I mean it's they feel terrible [1:21:44] for [1:21:45] >> Yeah. [1:21:45] >> Like it's awful. Yeah. So, we can add [1:21:49] stipulations to this resolution. County [1:21:51] Valerie. [1:21:52] >> Yeah. Joel said we can add [1:21:54] >> Yeah. [1:21:55] >> So, what would we like to see added [1:21:58] here? Like [1:22:00] >> there should be something added. You're [1:22:01] right, B. To make this [1:22:03] >> just to Okay. [1:22:05] Just to [1:22:08] prove that we care about the situation, [1:22:10] right? like [1:22:11] >> Mhm. [1:22:12] >> I I personally doesn't matter to me how [1:22:14] long it's taken for this to get going [1:22:16] because they [1:22:18] >> they messed up their license right off [1:22:19] the bat. [1:22:20] >> So that was on them and we did nothing [1:22:22] wrong until now. What we do now is we [1:22:25] need to [1:22:27] >> put something in it for us and then [1:22:29] >> rate our own. [1:22:31] >> Yeah. [1:22:33] >> How do we phrase something to put down [1:22:36] here then? Suggestions. [1:22:39] Well, what a first thing I think would [1:22:41] be request uh landscaping trees around [1:22:44] him. [1:22:47] >> Absolutely. [1:22:48] >> Y [1:22:50] >> and maybe more. [1:22:51] >> How do we [1:22:53] >> like is there any anybody that you could [1:22:55] check with like we could look into on [1:22:59] that does this for a living, you know, [1:23:02] like [1:23:02] >> Right. [1:23:03] >> Yeah. how to fix something or help [1:23:05] something [1:23:05] >> to help in the best possible way like [1:23:08] Landscaping trees is a pretty broad [1:23:10] spectrum, but I agree with you. [1:23:12] >> Put a shelter belt in. [1:23:13] >> How do you [1:23:14] >> We can help fund the shelter belt. [1:23:16] >> Yeah, we can fund a shelter belt for [1:23:19] sure. [1:23:19] >> Yeah, [1:23:20] >> but like do [1:23:22] >> and multiple row, right? Multiple row. [1:23:25] >> Well, what does multiple mean? Two. [1:23:29] >> They got two there now. [1:23:30] >> Yeah, I know. [1:23:31] >> Yeah. So, I would I would assume like [1:23:34] the shelter belt the guys put in last [1:23:36] year was four rows. I put three in this [1:23:39] year. [1:23:40] >> I think to the east of this lagoon, [1:23:43] there's probably room there to put eight [1:23:46] or 10 rows of shelter belts cuz they're [1:23:48] not in there. [1:23:49] >> Yep. And that'll be wasted. [1:23:51] >> Why Why couldn't that be something like [1:23:54] the Boy Scouts used to plant their trees [1:23:55] and have a whole plantation in there? [1:24:00] That would be [1:24:01] >> um [1:24:02] >> And is there a way to word the shelter [1:24:04] belt so that it is coniferous trees and [1:24:06] not deciduous? [1:24:08] >> Well, like you're on they're on the [1:24:10] corners of that when you put in those [1:24:12] trees. E like I hate those things, but [1:24:14] these they grew good e and fast. Those [1:24:17] are not spruce trees per se, but that [1:24:19] >> Yeah. Scotch vines. And they grow fast. [1:24:23] >> And if you put enough of them in there, [1:24:24] it' be very thick. [1:24:25] >> They grow well in that type of land, [1:24:27] too. [1:24:27] >> Yeah. [1:24:29] That's something Watershed could help [1:24:31] with. Could they not on something like [1:24:32] that, Jiren? [1:24:34] >> Yeah, [1:24:35] >> we have our programs and our own [1:24:37] programs. [1:24:39] >> Well, they say they're using a new [1:24:40] treatment, too. So, [1:24:42] >> I think like they are trying to mitigate [1:24:44] it. They're putting more oxygen into [1:24:47] them and stuff like that. So, [1:24:49] >> and this isn't for the hogs when you're [1:24:53] >> But they're also treating that, too. [1:24:55] >> Yeah. Well, that's the one that smells [1:24:57] the worst. [1:24:58] >> The orange one is what smells. So, [1:25:00] that's what's difficult um to keep in [1:25:03] mind. [1:25:05] >> But but like Ray said, if we we build [1:25:08] that east end, like a nice forest in [1:25:12] there, that'll help a lot. [1:25:13] >> Could we not do that separately from [1:25:15] this resolution since this is for the [1:25:17] other lagoon that's on the [1:25:20] >> Whatever. Yeah, whatever. However, we do [1:25:22] it [1:25:23] >> because I'm not familiar with this area. [1:25:25] Is this lagoon in the same place as the [1:25:27] other one? [1:25:28] >> Yes. [1:25:29] >> So these trees to the west of it. [1:25:31] >> They already have some trees in. [1:25:32] >> So the trees would just need to be [1:25:34] expanded. Would it also improve [1:25:36] >> the new improved for the new one? Okay. [1:25:39] So um [1:25:41] >> question about the license once this new [1:25:43] lagoon is in place. This is one thing I [1:25:44] never caught. Does the old one get [1:25:46] decommissioned? [1:25:47] >> No. [1:25:49] >> Okay. I just check. [1:25:50] >> And I think they're going to use it as a [1:25:51] like a backup. [1:25:53] >> Okay. I think so. Like whether the pig [1:25:57] manure is going in the first one. I [1:25:59] think that's probably what they're going [1:26:00] to do is keep the pig manure going in [1:26:02] the first one. Yeah. [1:26:03] >> And the second one's for the the [1:26:06] >> slaughter house and [1:26:07] >> overflow. Yeah. [1:26:08] >> Well, it'll be for the the colony and [1:26:10] the slaughter house. [1:26:11] >> Yeah, that's what it's for. [1:26:14] >> So, [1:26:16] >> but this was licensed and didn't dry [1:26:18] stills have the chance to the province [1:26:21] during all of that. So like, [1:26:22] >> yeah, [1:26:23] >> it's not really up to us to enforce [1:26:25] these type of things. It should be on [1:26:26] the provincial side. [1:26:28] >> We can help out with the trees. I think [1:26:30] we should do that, but I don't know if [1:26:32] we need to put that in this. [1:26:34] >> But as far as this what we're talking [1:26:36] about here, do we need any more than [1:26:38] what there is [1:26:39] >> right there right now? [1:26:40] >> I I it's up there now. And I changed it [1:26:42] around a little bit. Um so I just said [1:26:46] it's whereas who you know it's happening [1:26:49] >> and then therefore be your result of [1:26:51] council approve subject to the following [1:26:53] conditions increase rows of trees [1:26:55] shelter beliferous [1:26:57] trees do you want to be more [1:26:59] >> I would accept this as [1:27:01] >> specific like how many rows of trees [1:27:04] shelter belt is how much four is it [1:27:07] standard [1:27:07] >> well it's you can make it whatever you [1:27:09] want like and [1:27:10] >> how much detail do you want in here [1:27:12] >> well that's it Yeah, I think this is [1:27:14] enough. [1:27:16] >> And uh what do you think about [1:27:17] additives? [1:27:18] >> Yep. [1:27:26] » Anybody else got any other suggestions? [1:27:28] What we like to see in there? [1:27:31] Proof of that proven use of [1:27:42] Yeah. [1:27:43] on a yearly basis [1:27:45] >> there. That's it. [1:27:48] >> Would you not have something on there a [1:27:50] timeline?

Can I have a mover, [1:53:23] please? [1:53:24] >> Love to Dallas seconder. [1:53:28] >> Harold [1:53:30] questions. [1:53:33] It's uh we haven't approved this yet, [1:53:36] right? The the the grant application you [1:53:39] sent it to us, Senator Dave, there's a [1:53:41] few [1:53:42] >> so technically we can't approve this at [1:53:44] this point. [1:53:45] >> So the reason I put this on the agenda [1:53:47] is because we were receiving information [1:53:49] from uh from obviously they're looking [1:53:53] for [1:53:54] a hope a hope to start. [1:53:57] >> Yeah. [1:53:57] >> And so I I can't ignore that this [1:53:59] information is coming. However, it seems [1:54:01] it does seem premature because I only [1:54:03] just created a a grant application. Now, [1:54:06] you've never required it before of other [1:54:08] uh of other groups. But what is your [1:54:11] process that you wish to have? Um do you [1:54:15] now want to take this grant application [1:54:19] that should it be approved? Um so, first [1:54:22] of all, number one, should we approve [1:54:23] this grant application that I've [1:54:24] created? Number two, the process around [1:54:27] it. should it then now be given to the [1:54:29] eins to fill out so that you begin your new process and then um so [1:54:39] I I know where you're coming from [1:54:40] Robbie. [1:54:41] >> It's just a couple day change over right [1:54:42] like if we we just have it in here that [1:54:46] we can we review it and like it and [1:54:49] prove it. It's just a matter of [1:54:51] approving whatever and then giving it to [1:54:54] I think we give it [1:54:55] >> be like a condition in here upon [1:54:58] approval of [1:54:59] >> well the the point of the application is [1:55:02] to keep them [1:55:03] >> honest or should we be just tableabling [1:55:06] this until we get [1:55:08] >> like how we want to do it all [1:55:09] >> I hate to see it wait a month like I [1:55:11] know that there's other projects that [1:55:12] are are coming that really are [1:55:15] interested in starting right away so if [1:55:18] we can approve ASAP [1:55:22] the grant application. We can hand the [1:55:24] grant application over and hopefully [1:55:27] with within 2 or 3 or 4 days we get some [1:55:29] of those back in [1:55:31] >> and we could approve them through an [1:55:32] email, you know, something like that cuz [1:55:35] we basically already have to a point, [1:55:37] right? [1:55:38] >> Like like verbally we have [1:55:40] >> these are all part of your wish list, [1:55:42] right? [1:55:42] >> Yes. [1:55:43] >> And so so you've you've spoken of it to [1:55:46] them. They're eager and wanting to grab [1:55:49] hold of this, but you have not formally [1:55:52] approved all of those [1:55:55] amounts and the purposes for because it [1:55:57] was all a bit of a chicken and an egg [1:56:00] and who's who's ready and who's not. [1:56:02] >> Like I think your your proposal you sent [1:56:05] out the other day is not a bad idea, but [1:56:07] it's a little late for this year almost. [1:56:11] >> Well, I think that's what we're talking [1:56:12] about right here. Is it too late? You [1:56:13] know, we're a little we I think we could [1:56:16] almost in my mind I kind of thought [1:56:18] maybe we could approve what we have [1:56:19] already pro projected, [1:56:22] but going forward for the next year, it [1:56:25] would give people time to fill those [1:56:27] forms out and get them in on time. [1:56:30] >> Yeah. Like uh like if Edens does a bud [1:56:33] have if they did a budget already, then [1:56:36] they know basically what they're after. [1:56:38] They have a size, they have this and [1:56:39] that and you went through it where [1:56:41] they're getting their all their money, [1:56:42] right? [1:56:42] >> Yeah. So you you already know what they [1:56:45] want. [1:56:45] >> It's just [1:56:47] the actual like we should [1:56:49] >> the formality of signing the paper. [1:56:51] >> We should be Yeah. Like Bella said to [1:56:53] me, she said, you know, like we we [1:56:55] wanted to make sure like it's legit, [1:56:57] like it's [1:56:58] >> professional. [1:56:59] >> Yeah. [1:57:00] >> So, I mean, I understand the process [1:57:03] >> and and the like the the museum here, [1:57:05] like there's a couple that are really [1:57:07] >> Yeah. [1:57:08] like and and it'll be no time at all to [1:57:11] get these couple once we approve this or [1:57:14] we can approve them without that for [1:57:16] now. Two or three of them if you want [1:57:19] and it's here right in the past we've [1:57:22] approved them like this. [1:57:23] >> Yes. [1:57:24] >> I I don't see it being a problem [1:57:25] approving the ones we've got here now [1:57:28] and then we ask for these forms to be [1:57:30] filled out or give them to them for [1:57:32] future and try to continue forward from [1:57:35] this point. [1:57:36] >> It's whatever. Yeah. I don't think it's [1:57:37] an issue like we could still fill out [1:57:39] the form for Adrian and just have it in [1:57:41] the file, right? [1:57:43] >> It can still it's not an issue of the [1:57:45] paperwork being done just to keep apples [1:57:48] to apples and just have it all nice and [1:57:50] tidy and [1:57:51] >> it would be nice having form done future [1:57:53] stuff. already started [1:57:56] >> but I mean [1:57:57] >> but for this one I think we could [1:57:59] >> they are under [1:58:01] >> it is our building [1:58:03] >> and [1:58:04] >> it is our asset is it not in the end [1:58:06] >> completely [1:58:06] >> yeah and we've approved stuff for [1:58:08] Brookdale and other facilities very [1:58:10] similar to this [1:58:12] >> it's just the fact that it's coming from [1:58:13] a new clump and a different little [1:58:16] project base [1:58:17] >> so I I I added [1:58:20] uh approve this grant to assist with [1:58:23] this Innovation subject to the [1:58:25] completion of uh grant application with [1:58:28] the civil grant. [1:58:31] >> Okay with that Harold edition. [1:58:33] >> Yeah. Like I kind of thought we were [1:58:35] putting the cart ahead of the horse as [1:58:37] they say when you haven't got the kind [1:58:39] of [1:58:40] >> haven't sure you've got the grant yet. [1:58:42] >> Making a wagon as we went here because [1:58:44] this was a new thing for us to do. [1:58:46] >> This is our grant. Yeah. It's the money [1:58:48] we already have been granted to us. [1:58:50] We're not awaiting approval to get the [1:58:52] money. It's a it's a kitty that we have [1:58:54] sitting that we have to use this year. [1:58:56] Then these are projects that we want to [1:58:57] see done. So [1:59:00] >> no excitedly. [1:59:01] >> Yeah. [1:59:02] >> With that addition there to everything%. [1:59:05] >> Yeah. [1:59:06] >> Any other discussion? [1:59:08] >> All in favor? [1:59:10] >> Opposed? Okay. [1:59:12] >> Very excited to get there.

Can I have [1:59:33] a mover please? Malcolm seconder [1:59:38] >> Sharon [1:59:39] discussion [1:59:44] » is it called an equal shop or is it [1:59:46] called a lang shop? [1:59:47] >> Oh I don't know this is shoper shop. [1:59:51] >> Yes that would make [1:59:54] >> okay I'll change that change [1:59:55] >> I wouldn't mind that. [1:59:56] >> No no I don't I totally make that a [1:59:59] problem. [2:00:00] Everybody ever get the the price on [2:00:03] Starlink compared to what RF now is? [2:00:05] >> It's just different. I I checked into it [2:00:08] for you as you as you requested. Um it's a different kind of service and uh [2:00:14] this would be faster faster service for [2:00:16] them as in speed [2:00:19] >> and more reliable. It's [2:00:20] >> and more reliable. Yeah. I forget now [2:00:22] all the details but I did check [2:00:25] exploret. [2:00:28] Well, RF now has taken over exploring [2:00:30] it. [2:00:30] >> Yeah. [2:00:33] » Okay. Any other questions?

Whereas a Tiny Tater's Child Care [2:00:52] has requested financial assistance to [2:00:56] bring in service to the daycare, [2:00:58] including installation and/or upgrading [2:01:01] of essential municipal services such as [2:01:04] wellwater, sewer, and electrical [2:01:07] infrastructure. Can I have a moder? [2:01:10] >> Okay. [2:01:12] Oh, just wait a minute. I got to read [2:01:14] the rest of it here. Therefore, be it [2:01:16] resolved the council approve the [2:01:19] financial grant in the amount of [2:01:25] » to be determined. [2:01:26] >> Yeah. So, to be [2:01:27] >> to be determined [2:01:29] >> well in your um your discussion it's the [2:01:32] same thing as should they be filling out [2:01:35] a grant application. [2:01:36] >> Yeah. [2:01:37] >> Right. [2:01:37] >> Yeah. [2:01:38] Well, that's the thing too, like we had [2:01:40] talked about this in general to put [2:01:42] towards, you know, tables and chairs or [2:01:46] whatever originally. So, [2:01:48] >> but what number did we put there? We [2:01:49] were talking about 30, [2:01:53] >> but now with this new info coming in, we [2:01:56] don't exactly know the number that [2:01:59] joint. [2:02:00] >> I don't think we put anything down for [2:02:02] to be honest with you. Well, back in the [2:02:04] infrastructure, you you talked about [2:02:06] tables and chairs and I think it was [2:02:08] about 25 is what I thought. [2:02:10] >> But is that is that from the [2:02:13] >> strategic infrastructure? [2:02:14] >> But I I didn't think we're going to want [2:02:16] to do that because that's joint, [2:02:19] right? Is that not a joint or is that [2:02:21] >> Yeah, we [2:02:22] >> So we have [2:02:24] >> if if it's joint [2:02:26] and we put money in. [2:02:28] >> Is the town going to [2:02:30] >> No, [2:02:30] >> the town the town is already putting [2:02:32] they've already put their 150. They've [2:02:34] committed their 150 so that these [2:02:37] services can be assured to go in. [2:02:40] >> And so we did that. We we agreed on half [2:02:43] of that. Did we not? [2:02:44] >> We have not because we haven't told the [2:02:46] actual number. They thought 150 would [2:02:49] guaranteed to cover whatever it might [2:02:51] be, but we don't know what that number [2:02:53] was. So, in my notes from our chats for [2:02:56] infrastructure, [2:02:58] >> I thought we had said about the 30. [2:03:02] >> Yeah. But why would we give money to [2:03:04] tables and chairs when they're looking [2:03:05] for money for infrastructure [2:03:07] >> cuz it was before we hadn't known this. [2:03:10] We weren't we didn't have a request in [2:03:11] at the time. So we were considering [2:03:14] giving towards stuff they're going to [2:03:16] need to get open and then after the fact [2:03:19] at joint it had come up that they didn't [2:03:23] have a request into us for getting the [2:03:25] services to the building. So instead of [2:03:28] using for tables and chairs out of the [2:03:30] strategic infrastructure, use that [2:03:33] >> towards our potential half of that or [2:03:36] whatever we plan to do towards that 150 [2:03:40] >> once we get price. [2:03:43] >> Yeah. [2:03:44] >> Whatever your portion was. So we could [2:03:46] instead of giving this as the gift [2:03:48] towards things they need to open, we [2:03:51] were I think the chat kind of shifted [2:03:54] >> to be the infrastructure they need to [2:03:56] get their RTM picked up. [2:04:00] >> There's a lot of stuff here should have [2:04:02] been discussed and put in place [2:04:06] >> and planning done. [2:04:07] >> Yeah, this was better. This is [2:04:09] >> well was two years ago we were told it [2:04:11] was like a max maybe 40. [2:04:14] how greedy did that. [2:04:15] >> Yeah, exactly. So, since then with [2:04:18] shifting of [2:04:20] >> folks it was uh the new number is [2:04:22] potentially the 150 and half of that. [2:04:24] >> When are they thinking of starting [2:04:26] putting shovels in the ground? [2:04:28] >> Um [2:04:30] concrete should be in this fall. I guess [2:04:32] this this [2:04:33] >> what I'm getting at is wants to start [2:04:35] their ren. [2:04:37] >> Yeah, there's no issue tableing this a [2:04:38] month, [2:04:39] >> but this one we actually get a number of [2:04:41] what the infrastructure is going to be. [2:04:43] table and request a grant application be [2:04:46] filled out with a number. [2:04:47] >> Yeah, [2:04:49] >> we're not [2:04:50] >> it's okay. And if this isn't used from [2:04:51] that pot, that's fine. [2:04:53] >> Well, it [2:04:54] >> but it's going to have to come from [2:04:56] somewhere. [2:04:57] >> No, I realize but that [2:04:59] >> but I know it's not the vision of this [2:05:00] pot of money. I [2:05:01] >> like that. That's that's my hard feeling [2:05:03] on that is that this other money was it [2:05:06] is for stuff like that, but nothing else [2:05:08] is joint, [2:05:10] >> right? like it's just born from Peter to [2:05:13] pay Paul, but it's principal [2:05:16] >> to me. [2:05:18] >> I guess it's just whatever you want that [2:05:20] strategic infrastructure money to be [2:05:23] used for. [2:05:24] >> So that was your wish list. In the [2:05:27] meantime, you've learned about an [2:05:29] obligation that you probably have on a [2:05:31] joint [2:05:32] >> Yeah. [2:05:32] >> venture that [2:05:35] you you now need to provide funds for. [2:05:38] >> Perhaps you shift. Yeah. [2:05:40] >> What you want to adhere to that [2:05:42] >> just so that you have because otherwise [2:05:44] it's not in your budget, [2:05:46] >> right? [2:05:50] » Yeah. [2:05:51] >> But then there we're only talking of [2:05:52] taking some of these funds of the from [2:05:55] this strategic infrastructure reserve [2:05:57] fund [2:05:58] >> which was 30,000 we were talking about, [2:06:00] was it not? [2:06:02] >> That's what I had as a number. [2:06:05] » I just don't remember. It's fine. [2:06:07] >> Yeah. [2:06:09] But that would be all we're talking [2:06:11] about is that $30,000. [2:06:13] >> Yeah. So, I guess there's two things to [2:06:14] talk about how you want to pay it and [2:06:17] how much you want to pay it. [2:06:19] >> Yeah. And we had said we're not really [2:06:21] going to lock down what we're going to [2:06:22] pay till we find out what the number's [2:06:24] going to be. I think worst case scenario [2:06:26] is the 75 [2:06:29] >> each. [2:06:30] >> Yeah. each. [2:06:35] 20. 20 was guard here. [2:06:44] » Do you want to table this or do you want [2:06:47] we put 20 in there as a dollar figure [2:06:49] for now that we're going to go forward [2:06:52] with from this strategic infrastructure? [2:06:56] >> No pressure either way. It's got to come [2:06:57] from somewhere and it just qualifies, [2:07:00] right? [2:07:00] >> It's easier that way for 20 anyway, [2:07:02] right? [2:07:05] >> Okay. So, uh just for clarity, are you [2:07:07] saying that this is what you're that's [2:07:09] how much money you're going to use for [2:07:12] the obligation for the municipal [2:07:14] infrastructure? [2:07:17] >> That's really what this is about. [2:07:19] >> Yeah. It's not the whole not total [2:07:20] number that we're willing to give to the [2:07:22] project if we have to but this is what [2:07:25] we can give from this [2:07:27] >> or table is fine too. [2:07:29] >> I think you should table this. [2:07:31] >> Okay. Let's table this till next meeting [2:07:33] then to get it worded how we want it [2:07:35] then. Okay. [2:07:36] >> So that it's clear what we were doing. [2:07:38] >> Okay. [2:07:40] >> Thank you. [2:07:42] >> No problem. [2:07:42] >> Get some more things straightened [2:07:44] around.

He's taking [2:13:45] the 900 off that he's already done for [2:13:48] work. [2:13:48] >> Okay. [2:13:49] >> And so essentially [2:13:53] he hasn't charged us. [2:13:54] >> He did a preload for free. [2:13:56] >> Yeah. [2:13:57] >> So he'll go to pub and everything for us [2:13:59] and do that. [2:14:00] >> Yeah. [2:14:01] >> And get the he'll write the bylaw. He'll [2:14:03] Yeah.

[2:14:35] And they've done this before, has he? [2:14:36] I'm sure Dale's done lots of these [2:14:38] before. [2:14:38] >> That's all Travis does and he can't keep [2:14:40] up. [2:14:43] >> Okay.

Is that right? town of [2:27:44] Crberies and they had chosen to go with [2:27:46] someone different. I says, "Well, [2:27:48] >> I don't know about all that, but please [2:27:51] come and do it and then we'll get it [2:27:52] sorted. If I need to do a tender or [2:27:55] quotes or whatever, but for now, we [2:27:57] can't dillydally just schedule it and [2:27:59] get it." [2:27:59] >> That's that's great. It wouldn't hurt to [2:28:00] do a retender cuz we had done it for [2:28:03] joint buildings because it had been [2:28:04] forever since it had been done and then [2:28:07] there was a local option. We got the [2:28:09] tender for our shops. What about [2:28:12] >> part of it? still part of their own [2:28:14] >> so Mary's was doing it up until 2025. [2:28:19] >> And they and they're only expired by [2:28:21] April of 2026. [2:28:22] >> So not just out just [2:28:25] >> but that was a good little [2:28:26] >> Y insight. So as long as follow up on [2:28:28] that little I think [2:28:30] >> right is that [2:28:31] >> so have they been out yet Murray then or [2:28:32] you just got [2:28:34] >> I just Okay. And then uh just follow up [2:28:37] um from Eden's meeting like they were [2:28:38] ecstatic about this bathroom project [2:28:41] happening. And then a couple quick [2:28:43] questions. They had had um um a dumpster [2:28:46] fire there by someone putting some ash [2:28:48] in. It had some you know classic things. [2:28:50] So um the locals themselves really don't [2:28:53] want to see this lost and they want to [2:28:55] do what they can to keep it. Um so um [2:28:58] they are going to be putting up a camera [2:29:00] on their own. So, they were just wanting [2:29:02] to know if um we would provide a sign to [2:29:06] saying, you know, these premises are [2:29:09] under surveillance. Maybe that's what [2:29:11] woods is about. Maybe something [2:29:12] somewhere cuz they had some swag stuff [2:29:14] going in the dump. [2:29:15] >> Yeah, exactly. So, yeah, they're really [2:29:17] only requesting a sign to say, you know, [2:29:19] these North Cypress dumpsters are under [2:29:21] video surveillance would be a request. [2:29:25] Um and then they I've been talking with [2:29:28] planning and stuff that they're really [2:29:29] have good intentions of putting like a [2:29:31] fire pit and maybe some and they want to look at some picnic tables. So they [2:29:35] want to look our office could look at to [2:29:37] uh who under canoe procurement. Um they should maybe look for pricing [2:29:44] because they from other w things we've [2:29:46] looked through there and got [2:29:48] substantially better pricing for like [2:29:50] tables and chairs for them. So, um they [2:29:52] want us to help with that. And then they [2:29:55] are hoping to still get some private [2:29:56] donations from the neighborhood. So, [2:29:58] they would love if their project was uh [2:30:01] um classified for donations for cash [2:30:05] receipts. That's something they would [2:30:06] love to. And then apart from our [2:30:10] municipal uh appreciation golf day is [2:30:13] going to be on Friday, June 19th. Golf [2:30:16] 10:30 and lunch to follow. So, if [2:30:19] council can let me know uh a week ahead [2:30:22] if you're coming and if you need a cart, [2:30:24] that would be awesome. [2:30:25] >> What day is that again? [2:30:26] >> Friday, June 19th. [2:30:29] >> Thanks. Friday. [2:30:30] >> Yeah, [2:30:30] >> I know. Yeah. [2:30:34] >> Somehow is June already. Yes. [2:30:36] >> It's actually middle week, [2:30:38] >> right? I know. Yeah. [2:30:39] >> Friday, June 19th. [2:30:41] >> 10:30. [2:30:42] golf lunch to follow. [2:30:46] >> What else you got? [2:30:47] >> Good. Okay. Thank you, Dallas. [2:30:50] >> Indeed. [2:30:53] >> I attended a doctor's supper here with [2:30:56] the rest of the the mayor and the town. [2:30:59] It was very well, very good. There was a [2:31:01] new doctor that's coming and uh four [2:31:04] residents that were out. Good deal. [2:31:07] Looks like a really good guy to be [2:31:09] getting a hold of, I think. [2:31:11] And we had Scott Phillips and Mark Savvy [2:31:14] here on the 25th [2:31:16] when the Western District came out. I [2:31:18] think Grant was the only other one here, [2:31:19] was he not? Grant and I and them had a [2:31:23] little talk with them. They toured [2:31:24] Evergreen Environmental with me there, [2:31:26] too. So, whatever good. They just [2:31:29] looking around, checking things out. [2:31:31] Good for them for doing that. [2:31:34] And the roads are going to be a bit of a [2:31:35] challenge right now with a little bit of [2:31:37] moisture and that, but [2:31:39] from the looks of things, we've got [2:31:40] another guy coming on and helping a bit, [2:31:42] so that'll be good. Hopefully works out. [2:31:47] >> Gust control is supposed to be out this [2:31:49] week, right? [2:31:49] >> Wednesday. [2:31:52] » Other than that, Valerie, you got [2:31:54] anything? [2:31:54] >> Uh, you saw my report that I typed up [2:31:57] yesterday afternoon [2:31:58] >> and uh the rest I'll talk about on [2:32:00] camera. [2:32:01] >> Okay, great. Thank you very much.
