1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:17,610
All right, let's get started. Thanks, everybody, for coming out to Oakley City Council meeting

2
00:00:17,610 --> 00:00:27,090
on August 12th. Get started. Councilmember Neff, if you'd give an indication or expression

3
00:00:27,090 --> 00:00:31,030
and followed by council member Regan with the pledge.

4
00:00:31,310 --> 00:00:31,750
I

5
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:41,300
have to meet this evening at the Oakley City Council meeting.

6
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,540
We're grateful to be able to serve in the community

7
00:00:43,540 --> 00:00:47,020
and pray that we'll be reminded and open-hearted

8
00:00:47,020 --> 00:00:50,820
in the decisions that we make and that we'll

9
00:00:53,100 --> 00:00:58,140
decisions and citizens here in Oakley.

10
00:00:59,540 --> 00:01:01,420
We enjoy here and the wonderful,

11
00:01:01,420 --> 00:01:15,180
will help us to do our part to continue that mission and vary or grateful for many

12
00:01:15,180 --> 00:01:15,440
blessings.

13
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,000
Grateful for those serving the country.

14
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:24,470
Pray that that will bless them to be wise, bless those who certainly watch over guide

15
00:01:24,470 --> 00:01:25,210
and direct them.

16
00:01:25,310 --> 00:01:26,290
And we pray for these things.

17
00:01:27,590 --> 00:01:27,910
Amen.

18
00:01:28,530 --> 00:01:29,230
It's bless you, Joe.

19
00:01:36,610 --> 00:01:41,590
the United States of America and to the

20
00:01:41,590 --> 00:01:44,830
Republic for which it stands for foundation

21
00:01:44,830 --> 00:01:49,750
under God in the visible with liberty and justice for

22
00:01:49,750 --> 00:01:50,830
all.

23
00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:08,650
Sorry, I'm making a note.

24
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:13,380
Okay.

25
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,280
Again, thanks everybody for coming.

26
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,740
Let's jump on down public comment.

27
00:02:18,740 --> 00:02:22,240
If anybody has a public comment, you have three minutes.

28
00:02:23,580 --> 00:02:24,700
We'll time you.

29
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,200
You're welcome to speak about anything that's not on our agenda tonight.

30
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,260
So with that being said, I'll open it up to public comment.

31
00:02:40,950 --> 00:02:44,450
Well, okay, everybody jumped at once and we finished that off pretty quick.

32
00:02:45,650 --> 00:02:46,610
Moving on.

33
00:02:48,850 --> 00:02:50,970
Let's go to consent calendar items.

34
00:02:52,970 --> 00:02:56,370
We're looking at bills for last month.

35
00:02:56,950 --> 00:03:00,190
It's a little large this month that you guys have noticed.

36
00:03:00,470 --> 00:03:00,970
Pretty large.

37
00:03:02,030 --> 00:03:06,910
But that, this amount includes almost nearly all

38
00:03:06,910 --> 00:03:08,330
of the rodeo production stuff.

39
00:03:08,850 --> 00:03:10,290
So that's why it's a little bit larger.

40
00:03:11,150 --> 00:03:15,090
So with that, if you guys have looked at it,

41
00:03:15,230 --> 00:03:18,930
I would take a motion to approve or deny the consent calendar.

42
00:03:18,930 --> 00:03:26,740
I would move that we approve the consent calendar and the invoice register.

43
00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:29,280
Okay, do I have a second?

44
00:03:30,140 --> 00:03:30,780
Second.

45
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,280
Joe's seconds.

46
00:03:33,330 --> 00:03:34,180
All in favor?

47
00:03:35,180 --> 00:03:35,680
I.

48
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:37,040
Any opposed?

49
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,920
Perfect, consent calendar passes.

50
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:47,880
Now, item four for some reason, I don't know what's not showing up, but item four

51
00:03:49,700 --> 00:03:57,640
on the agenda I have is a conflict of interest this closure. This conflict of

52
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:02,820
interest has to do with me and I think all of you out of be aware of. I'll

53
00:04:02,820 --> 00:04:10,500
explain to you what happened and why this is being brought up and I have a

54
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:13,000
little item for you to read.

55
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:22,500
Well, I'll read it. So as if you guys remember in one of

56
00:04:22,500 --> 00:04:26,300
our meetings, one of our last meetings, we had talked about the child that fell through

57
00:04:26,300 --> 00:04:35,160
the bleachers and we had discussed that it needed to be fixed in what we were going to do.

58
00:04:36,140 --> 00:04:43,560
well we haven't had any meeting since then so full disclosure I met with

59
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:49,960
Kindle and I met with Dallas we talked about some recommendations Tom actually

60
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:55,560
came up with one that was actually really a good idea and I don't know if

61
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:00,240
you guys have ever seen that it almost looks like tape it's four inches it's

62
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:07,240
white. In fact, Kirby's adkins had it around her property.

63
00:05:07,540 --> 00:05:12,340
Kind of property. So we got a line on a whole bunch of that and we went and

64
00:05:12,340 --> 00:05:17,020
got it. We wanted to see if it would work. But one of the things that we run

65
00:05:17,020 --> 00:05:23,980
into is it has a four inch ball can't fit through it, right? That's code. Well, one

66
00:05:23,980 --> 00:05:27,380
of the things we got concerned with is when you tighten that you have to have

67
00:05:27,380 --> 00:05:37,020
something to anchor to to pull it tight. Number one, we didn't have anything to anchor to and number two, it was just too flexible. And so you could push it back.

68
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:46,620
So as we brainstormed and try and come up with some other some other things, one of the things that came up was maybe wood.

69
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,900
You guys know I'm all involved in the wood business.

70
00:05:52,060 --> 00:05:57,360
So I reached out to my company that I work for.

71
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,760
It's a different department but it is the same company.

72
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,000
I reached out to them.

73
00:06:03,740 --> 00:06:05,540
They donated all of the labor.

74
00:06:06,420 --> 00:06:08,440
They donated all the typeplates.

75
00:06:09,100 --> 00:06:12,120
And so what we ended up doing is we took two by sixes.

76
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,680
I wish the whiteboard was here because I was going to draw on it today.

77
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,900
But we took two by sixes and we put them in the end.

78
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:24,520
So instead of trying to match and make sure we hit a support system on everything,

79
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:28,580
that adds to a lot of extra material.

80
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,960
So what we've come up with is if we, you guys have all seen trusses.

81
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:37,660
So when they put two pieces of wood together on a truss,

82
00:06:38,060 --> 00:06:40,140
they put on top of that what they call a tight plate.

83
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,460
And the tight plate is what holds the trusses together.

84
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:51,760
So what we decided to do is we put those two by sixes in to end and we did a

85
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:58,540
tie plate on each side. Now when I talked to my trust manufacturing guy, he

86
00:06:58,540 --> 00:07:03,340
suggested because we were just gonna nail him on or hammer him on, but he said

87
00:07:03,340 --> 00:07:08,200
you're crazy don't do that. Let me run him through my trust plan and we have a

88
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:14,360
press. It's about 30,000 or 26,000 pounds that compresses all of those on there so they don't come off.

89
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:25,580
So they did that for us. The total bill was about 3,100 bucks. So it was, it ended up being less

90
00:07:25,580 --> 00:07:34,860
than a dollar a foot for everything that we needed to do. With that being said, I made the decision

91
00:07:34,860 --> 00:07:40,520
to go ahead and go forward with it, especially with their donation and what they were offering

92
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:46,020
back to us. And we basically called them on a Thursday and they had them on site on Tuesday.

93
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:52,980
So time has up the essence as well, right, because this week we have the high school rodeo.

94
00:07:53,900 --> 00:08:01,000
And we did have young guns, but we did block off the bleachers so nobody could use them.

95
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:07,580
So during young young guns, nobody was allowed to sit on that section of the week just to help cover ourselves

96
00:08:08,580 --> 00:08:10,900
To answer your question a little bit Dave

97
00:08:12,860 --> 00:08:18,060
When we put the fences up I we took pictures of them and I had Amy send an

98
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,780
email with the picture back to the family to let them know that we were getting started working on this, okay

99
00:08:25,860 --> 00:08:27,740
We just finished up

100
00:08:30,740 --> 00:08:37,080
We just finished up, the final, it was pretty much done, but we had to finish up all the stuff.

101
00:08:37,340 --> 00:08:40,400
We actually just finished it today this morning.

102
00:08:40,820 --> 00:08:43,140
So we had some steps that we had to finish and so on and so forth.

103
00:08:43,260 --> 00:08:44,500
But they got that finished today.

104
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,040
We've taken off the gates.

105
00:08:47,220 --> 00:08:53,700
It's wide open for high school rodeo now, and we are in compliance with the code for those.

106
00:08:54,560 --> 00:09:00,960
I took some pictures today. If you guys want to see them, I'll let you just see a few of them real quick.

107
00:09:01,220 --> 00:09:06,060
They're just two. You can kind of see what it looks like. It actually turned out, in my opinion, it looks pretty sharp.

108
00:09:06,940 --> 00:09:08,540
Yeah, it's good.

109
00:09:13,030 --> 00:09:15,270
And so again, now we're going to take these pictures.

110
00:09:15,590 --> 00:09:16,050
That's awesome.

111
00:09:16,410 --> 00:09:23,070
And we're going to send them back to the homeowner and the child and let them know that we are in compliance.

112
00:09:23,070 --> 00:09:32,350
we finished the job that's done. Great. So I made that decision. Lisa and I were talking about a

113
00:09:32,350 --> 00:09:40,630
different issue. Oh, I think it was last Friday, Thursday or Friday, I think Lisa can correct me

114
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:47,550
if she wants to. But we were talking about another issue and she brought this up and wanted to know

115
00:09:47,550 --> 00:09:49,350
how the bleachers were going and where we were at.

116
00:09:50,170 --> 00:09:55,050
So I told her what had happened and what I had done.

117
00:09:55,870 --> 00:09:58,670
And I told her that I made the decision of $3,100

118
00:09:58,670 --> 00:10:00,690
without really talking to you guys,

119
00:10:00,870 --> 00:10:03,710
but I did feel like I had the okay to do it

120
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,830
from our first conversation, but the conflict of interest

121
00:10:07,830 --> 00:10:13,770
came up and so she's prepared a statement for me to read

122
00:10:13,770 --> 00:10:15,110
to you guys now if you're ready.

123
00:10:15,110 --> 00:10:16,050
Just

124
00:10:18,290 --> 00:10:22,870
to be extra cautious of transparent and avoid any complaints as the elected mayor of

125
00:10:22,870 --> 00:10:27,590
Oakley City, I am disclosing that I work for some probability materials and have a substantial

126
00:10:27,590 --> 00:10:34,110
interest in the company. Not sure what that is, Lisa. I work there, so I guess it's substantial.

127
00:10:34,830 --> 00:10:40,470
I am disclosing an axle or a protective conflict of interest between my public duty and my personal

128
00:10:40,470 --> 00:10:47,210
interest due to an unfortunate accident of the Oakley rodeo on July 5th, 2026, a child fell

129
00:10:47,210 --> 00:10:53,210
about 10 feet from the north leachers to the ground. The child is safe and and well to the best

130
00:10:53,210 --> 00:10:59,010
of our knowledge. As Oakley's mayor, I took immediate action to remedy the allegedly dangerous

131
00:10:59,010 --> 00:11:05,070
conditions. I saw this to be an emergency and academically without prior discussion with you as

132
00:11:05,070 --> 00:11:13,410
the City Council. On July 21, 2026, I ordered immediate closure. Well, that happened before

133
00:11:13,410 --> 00:11:18,570
that, but this is when I made the decision. I ordered an immediate closure of the north

134
00:11:18,570 --> 00:11:23,870
bleachers as the Oakley City of Grounds. I then acquired the materials and labor through

135
00:11:23,870 --> 00:11:29,750
my employer as needed to approve the safety of the North Blanche bleachers. The solution was,

136
00:11:29,750 --> 00:11:35,130
was the solution I chose was to install 50 foot long boards connected together with

137
00:11:35,130 --> 00:11:41,710
trust ties and run them along the floor boards of the bleachers to fill in spaces where

138
00:11:41,710 --> 00:11:47,550
the small person could not fall through. This work was completed. I'm going to put in today's

139
00:11:47,550 --> 00:11:52,170
date because it actually got finished today. So it'll be today's date in time for the high

140
00:11:52,170 --> 00:11:57,810
school rodeo which starts tomorrow. So we got all that done. The Municipal Officers and

141
00:11:57,810 --> 00:12:05,470
employees, ethic, act, Utah code, subsection, 10-3-13-04 prohibits the use of elected officials

142
00:12:05,470 --> 00:12:10,330
for personal benefit. As mayor, I secured the assistance and knowingly received the

143
00:12:10,330 --> 00:12:15,630
lumber and labor from my employer or business partners needed to make these repairs on behalf

144
00:12:15,630 --> 00:12:22,510
of the city. The only personal benefit to me was the gratification I received in knowing

145
00:12:22,510 --> 00:12:29,610
that my business partners could help out Oakley more cheaply and quickly in the other business

146
00:12:29,610 --> 00:12:35,090
in the area. The total cost of the materials and labor will be estimated $3,100, which has

147
00:12:35,090 --> 00:12:40,590
not been billed yet by sub-pro building materials for its performance for the city. To the extent

148
00:12:41,270 --> 00:12:46,030
the Oakley building, to the extent the sub-pro building materials will receive compensation

149
00:12:46,030 --> 00:12:48,770
for its material and labor cost.

150
00:12:49,290 --> 00:12:52,950
I am fulfilling our I am filing a sworn statement

151
00:12:53,370 --> 00:12:56,210
with the city recorder disclosing the transaction

152
00:12:56,210 --> 00:12:59,950
and compliance with Utah Code subsection 10, 3,

153
00:13:00,270 --> 00:13:02,510
13, 0, 5, 2, and 4.

154
00:13:05,940 --> 00:13:06,560
Very good.

155
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,060
I have a comment statement with Steve's folder

156
00:13:10,060 --> 00:13:10,700
disclosed here.

157
00:13:10,900 --> 00:13:11,980
Is that your future button?

158
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:18,500
With Steve's full disclosure of his conflict

159
00:13:18,500 --> 00:13:22,920
of interest and make a motion that we allow him to take his prison shirt off.

160
00:13:27,910 --> 00:13:32,500
And be able to rejoin us with in the meeting.

161
00:13:36,340 --> 00:13:41,660
I couldn't pass it out. But thank you for being upfront and thank you for getting the

162
00:13:41,660 --> 00:13:46,460
problem fixed and that was why support that 100%. Thank you.

163
00:13:46,460 --> 00:13:51,660
Yeah, I agree. Thank you so much for taking care of that. We've been jaken with that for years,

164
00:13:51,660 --> 00:13:57,900
and it would have cost 20 to $30,000. Any of the other ways that we look at it. Yeah,

165
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:03,720
that was phenomenal. Thank you. I'm amazed. It was only $30,900. Yeah, to fix it for that price.

166
00:14:04,220 --> 00:14:09,880
Well, that's why I felt like I did it, John. Yeah, the bestie. Can I make a suggestion that we,

167
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,560
when we do write that family, we offer them tickets to next year's rodeo? Sure.

168
00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:20,240
I would be all in favor of that, to be honest with you, because you all read the letter.

169
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:25,940
I'll say to it said, and it destroyed their family, and, you know, so I would love

170
00:14:25,940 --> 00:14:28,120
to do that, as long as we put them on the south side.

171
00:14:33,620 --> 00:14:40,820
Okay, so I do have the attorney online, so I'm going to call you to order, Lisa.

172
00:14:44,140 --> 00:14:59,970
Is there a member of the Council must state that the Council approves and consents of the

173
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:29,380
Mission acceptable. Do we need a different one? Well, he just made a statement, right? Well, and I don't even think you need a mission, a motion, but it based on everybody there that I was watching. Everybody concurred with the decision that you made. They accept your statement of the conflict of interest and understand what you did and why and are comfortable with it. Okay. So we don't need a, we don't need a motion on that one. No.

174
00:15:29,380 --> 00:15:35,540
It's now on the record in the on the tape and that's that's sufficient. Okay, thank you. Thank you

175
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,400
With that we are on with

176
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:41,520
four

177
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,860
So now we have an update and acknowledged

178
00:15:46,620 --> 00:15:48,420
A knowledgement of 2024

179
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,880
IBC international building code and I'm turning the time over to our

180
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,860
Magnificent planner is Stephanie Wolston you

181
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,040
Actually, this is pretty straightforward.

182
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,320
We actually don't need to totally do this, but by motion,

183
00:16:07,900 --> 00:16:10,260
it's the motion is more accepting and understanding

184
00:16:10,260 --> 00:16:13,480
that the state adopted the 2024,

185
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,140
it usually gets updated out every three to four years,

186
00:16:16,460 --> 00:16:17,460
the International Building Code.

187
00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:19,560
And kind of when the state adopts it,

188
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:20,640
then we kind of fall in line.

189
00:16:21,100 --> 00:16:22,720
But this is just formal notice that,

190
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,300
that we acknowledge that we'll be operating

191
00:16:24,300 --> 00:16:28,600
under the 2024 IBC International Building Code.

192
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:45,020
Okay. We need to make a motion on that except that correct? So does anybody have any questions regarding the code or if you really wanted to challenge you, you could ask you what the changes were from the previous code with the 24 code.

193
00:16:45,020 --> 00:16:49,300
We could be here all night and so that was rude.

194
00:16:51,500 --> 00:16:57,480
I'll make a motion that we acknowledge the changes in adopting the 2024 International

195
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,220
Building Code as part of Oakley's Planning and Building Code.

196
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,200
Do I have a second?

197
00:17:04,100 --> 00:17:04,820
I will second.

198
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:06,040
80 seconds?

199
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:07,020
Okay.

200
00:17:07,180 --> 00:17:07,760
Any more discussion?

201
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:14,660
Is there anything glaring that's major difference from anything that—

202
00:17:14,660 --> 00:17:16,960
I mean, the only thing that the snow loads

203
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,920
have changed a little bit, which is a little bit new,

204
00:17:19,120 --> 00:17:22,160
but nothing really out of the orange.

205
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:23,100
Nothing really, yeah.

206
00:17:23,120 --> 00:17:24,700
So my understand in the snow loads,

207
00:17:24,700 --> 00:17:25,640
they've actually decreased.

208
00:17:25,940 --> 00:17:26,100
Yeah.

209
00:17:26,340 --> 00:17:27,720
Oh, and you have the snow loads.

210
00:17:27,860 --> 00:17:29,400
So we used to be a 90 pound snow,

211
00:17:29,420 --> 00:17:31,880
but I think now we're down to 50, I think.

212
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:32,740
They're 45.

213
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:33,680
50, really?

214
00:17:33,820 --> 00:17:34,600
Yeah, I think so.

215
00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:36,580
So, all right, thank you.

216
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:40,460
We have to vote on us.

217
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:41,300
Yeah, take a vote.

218
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:41,820
It's amazing.

219
00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:42,440
Bless you.

220
00:17:44,660 --> 00:17:50,640
That's orange shirt doesn't question. Thank you. All right. All in favor. Hi. Hi. Any opposed?

221
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:59,360
So passes. Perfect. Which is actually that building code with just the trust decrease quite honestly saves

222
00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:03,700
homeowners a ton of money. It does. It's a big difference. It's a big difference from a 90 pound

223
00:18:03,700 --> 00:18:12,220
snow low down. So you wouldn't think so, but it's huge. Okay. All of us received. Let's go on to

224
00:18:12,220 --> 00:18:14,620
item six, which is the celebration appreciation.

225
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:16,180
Let's go there.

226
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:22,580
As all of you are aware, Councilman Regan sent out something

227
00:18:22,580 --> 00:18:26,160
to maybe thank some of our members and people

228
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,480
that helped during the rodeo.

229
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,800
I fully support this.

230
00:18:31,660 --> 00:18:34,540
We talked about this a little bit in the meetings before.

231
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,220
And so what we did to a lot of the heads,

232
00:18:38,220 --> 00:18:39,720
just so you guys are aware.

233
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:47,860
Whatever whatever area we had a budget for which is

234
00:18:47,860 --> 00:18:53,440
pretty much everything most everything we came under budget and so what we did

235
00:18:53,440 --> 00:19:03,400
is we gave some money to the people that that were the heads of those departments

236
00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:11,780
Pervy got some money, Brady got some money, there's been a few others that got some money.

237
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:22,360
But as hard as time is we're having with getting help at our rodeo, I think this is a great

238
00:19:22,360 --> 00:19:22,880
gesture.

239
00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:27,540
But as Amy and I were talking on the phone and this is why I wanted to bring it to the council.

240
00:19:28,220 --> 00:19:31,240
As Amy and I were talking on the phone, how do we do that?

241
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:38,620
What's your guys' suggestion? Obviously, we can't pay everybody money, right? So, what's the

242
00:19:38,620 --> 00:19:47,160
suggestion of getting this to those people? So, social media is great, not all that, but I think

243
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:53,320
people blow by that. A lot of people are not, would see that. That's a concern of mine. We could post

244
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:59,280
something in town, really thanking everybody, but a lot of our help doesn't live in Oakley,

245
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:08,460
there in Canis or Wanchia, or not Wanchia, but the other town down there, Woodland, Francis

246
00:20:08,460 --> 00:20:09,120
down in there.

247
00:20:09,380 --> 00:20:12,300
So, I just, that's my biggest issue.

248
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:18,120
So when I, when I asking me that same question, and we kind of came up with that, Amy brought

249
00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:21,540
up the fact of our lunch, or our dinner that we used to do.

250
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:29,840
Now, I don't remember doing a dinner for the town to thank the people since

251
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,980
Wade was here. You guys can credit me if I'm wrong, but I just don't I don't

252
00:20:35,980 --> 00:20:41,240
remember that and I know that at one point and it was probably Wade's last year

253
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:48,540
and that's probably why we didn't do it, but we got the same people out to the

254
00:20:48,540 --> 00:20:52,740
dinner every year and a lot of times it was people that didn't even help. So we

255
00:20:52,740 --> 00:20:59,100
kind of felt like it was a waste. So, as, as Amy, and even prep me if I'm

256
00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:04,140
misspoke on anything, Amy, as Amy and I discussed it further a little bit

257
00:21:04,140 --> 00:21:10,320
down the road, it got to me. What if we reached out to a lot of our volunteers

258
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:16,760
that headed up those, gotten the names of people, we go forward and we do an

259
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:22,500
appreciation dinner, but it's an invitation to those people. And we

260
00:21:22,500 --> 00:21:29,060
target those people, I just hold it for those guys. What do you guys think? You think that would be

261
00:21:29,060 --> 00:21:36,240
better? You think that's, you know, and somebody other than me, just kidding, it would probably have

262
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:41,440
to be me, could stand up and thank people why we're there, you know, and give a personal thanks

263
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:49,400
to everybody that helped. But what do you guys think? I mean, the chicken dinner was not that expensive,

264
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:54,060
Nancy, if I don't think, but I just want to know your opinion.

265
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,380
You guys have been around some of you longer than me, so tell me what you think.

266
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,420
What do you think the best way to get to those people are to think them?

267
00:22:03,410 --> 00:22:03,970
Yes or no?

268
00:22:04,770 --> 00:22:09,390
Well, I for a long time thought that whoever's doing the parade and whoever's

269
00:22:09,390 --> 00:22:12,870
doing the food should get a stipend, right?

270
00:22:15,210 --> 00:22:17,770
Maybe $800,000 for doing it.

271
00:22:17,770 --> 00:22:26,010
is such a big job for so long and on top of that my feeling is is just because the logistics

272
00:22:26,010 --> 00:22:33,750
of having everybody together is so hard. I'd almost rather give them a $50 gift certificate to

273
00:22:33,750 --> 00:22:37,950
one of the restaurants in the valley or maybe mix it up so it's not just one restaurant.

274
00:22:38,810 --> 00:22:46,930
That could be a lot of money. I don't think it would be as much as the chicken dinner was and it

275
00:22:46,930 --> 00:22:53,910
committee that's I'm just I'm just throwing that out I'm saying for every single

276
00:22:53,910 --> 00:22:59,910
volunteer no no no for all shares and everything like that okay but maybe at

277
00:22:59,910 --> 00:23:03,590
the discretion of the committee chair who does have the site then because

278
00:23:03,590 --> 00:23:09,630
hopefully you might have a chair elect who's coming up who's going to be doing

279
00:23:09,630 --> 00:23:14,250
that and I am not suggesting that we do it to everybody because I think we have

280
00:23:14,250 --> 00:23:20,530
have plenty of people who want to come in and do work at, I mean when they are working

281
00:23:20,530 --> 00:23:31,190
they get stipends for food the night that they're working, but I think particularly just

282
00:23:31,190 --> 00:23:38,290
in the core people who are putting the food together and the core people particularly probably

283
00:23:38,290 --> 00:23:46,630
whoever's in charge of the parade. I just think those two are huge and I'm not

284
00:23:46,630 --> 00:23:50,990
against having that meal but I do think the majority of people who came to that

285
00:23:50,990 --> 00:23:55,550
meeting didn't have anything to do with long hearing at the radio. So let me

286
00:23:55,550 --> 00:24:01,750
just make sure we're all clear so and maybe I miss folks I just want to make

287
00:24:01,750 --> 00:24:06,850
sure I'm clear on it. This year we didn't take care of those heads. No I appreciate

288
00:24:06,850 --> 00:24:15,810
I think we so I think I think Amy's question for me if I'm wrong and my question is what do we do for all the people that fell underneath that?

289
00:24:16,090 --> 00:24:23,350
How do we think then how do we get the word out that we appreciate because that maybe what we need to get people helping.

290
00:24:23,470 --> 00:24:28,270
Hey, hopefully really does appreciate you know or whatever and get people to work for those heads.

291
00:24:28,270 --> 00:24:34,990
So all I'm saying is, and I don't even know how many people would be 100, let's just say maybe 100 people that help.

292
00:24:35,430 --> 00:24:44,950
I mean, with all the concessions, ticket takers, ushers, I mean patriotic people that help with that, so on and so forth.

293
00:24:45,250 --> 00:24:52,490
How do we get them to understand that we recognize them and we appreciate their health as well?

294
00:24:53,330 --> 00:24:55,370
That, to me, that's the biggest question.

295
00:24:56,210 --> 00:24:57,150
And I like that.

296
00:24:57,250 --> 00:24:57,610
Oh, go ahead.

297
00:24:57,610 --> 00:24:57,830
Yeah.

298
00:24:58,570 --> 00:25:03,070
I like the thought and of sending out an invitation

299
00:25:03,070 --> 00:25:06,930
for, like, to get those people specifically invited.

300
00:25:07,190 --> 00:25:10,650
But I also like the idea of including the whole town,

301
00:25:11,110 --> 00:25:14,450
like, make it a, make it a special invite to those we know.

302
00:25:14,550 --> 00:25:17,030
But I hate to leave someone out that helped.

303
00:25:17,250 --> 00:25:18,470
That didn't get an invitation.

304
00:25:18,650 --> 00:25:18,750
Yeah.

305
00:25:18,750 --> 00:25:26,110
Why don't you make it a talent celebration to thank you celebration that makes special invitations to the hundred people

306
00:25:26,110 --> 00:25:33,690
We for sure know about it, but see that's why we need an electric announcement word in the front. So hey, you're gonna have the way it's out of the mayor

307
00:25:35,930 --> 00:25:38,490
Because people see that they don't look at the emails

308
00:25:38,490 --> 00:25:47,510
But I'm gonna say it and it's not bad. I did it have a community gathering where we could cook breakfast for them and

309
00:25:47,510 --> 00:26:04,310
And have a little bit of interaction and thank them personally and have some we don't have a lot of contact with with the public as much as we used to and so I think I think it's a it's kind of a big deal but and I think we need to do it.

310
00:26:04,310 --> 00:26:07,770
but shortly after the event,

311
00:26:08,070 --> 00:26:10,590
and years passed, we'd wait until September.

312
00:26:10,870 --> 00:26:11,230
September?

313
00:26:11,450 --> 00:26:12,490
Yeah, it doesn't September.

314
00:26:12,650 --> 00:26:15,610
And then there's like football and events and school.

315
00:26:15,890 --> 00:26:17,490
I think if we did something,

316
00:26:18,050 --> 00:26:19,450
I mean, think it had for next,

317
00:26:19,750 --> 00:26:21,110
I know we have to do something this year,

318
00:26:21,430 --> 00:26:24,090
but I'm just saying if we did it in August,

319
00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:26,990
where it's not so far removed and people are still,

320
00:26:27,930 --> 00:26:29,410
because the way to tell me to do it in September,

321
00:26:29,590 --> 00:26:30,150
it's kind of like,

322
00:26:30,550 --> 00:26:32,810
yeah, but you also have the problem in August,

323
00:26:32,810 --> 00:26:34,250
I guess people are taking care of these things.

324
00:26:34,510 --> 00:26:35,530
The schools get ready to come back.

325
00:26:35,810 --> 00:26:37,410
It's true, and they're number a great time,

326
00:26:37,670 --> 00:26:40,010
but I think closer to the event is a little bit.

327
00:26:40,010 --> 00:26:42,910
And maybe what we can do is we can decide on that date.

328
00:26:43,250 --> 00:26:44,630
I'm thinking for next year, right?

329
00:26:45,330 --> 00:26:47,610
And when they come to volunteer or something,

330
00:26:48,110 --> 00:26:49,550
we can have that date already set.

331
00:26:50,330 --> 00:26:51,450
They please plan on coming this.

332
00:26:51,630 --> 00:26:52,690
We want to give you a thank you,

333
00:26:52,850 --> 00:26:53,710
whatever that may be.

334
00:26:54,730 --> 00:26:56,610
And then that way it's already set.

335
00:26:56,770 --> 00:26:58,430
And we have the date set and there's no question.

336
00:26:58,770 --> 00:26:59,930
Okay, just some thoughts, Joe.

337
00:27:00,050 --> 00:27:01,250
And Joe has some input.

338
00:27:01,250 --> 00:27:07,530
Well, I think I like the idea of an event in theory.

339
00:27:09,650 --> 00:27:11,790
But yeah, I would have to be there.

340
00:27:11,930 --> 00:27:15,910
But if I'm a volunteer or a person out in the public,

341
00:27:16,130 --> 00:27:17,870
I don't want to go to another thing.

342
00:27:18,970 --> 00:27:21,090
I've got five nights of things.

343
00:27:21,830 --> 00:27:23,330
But you know what? They don't have to come.

344
00:27:23,410 --> 00:27:25,970
I know and then we get 50 people that are the same.

345
00:27:26,410 --> 00:27:27,150
That's true.

346
00:27:27,150 --> 00:27:30,310
and we're not doing what we set out for.

347
00:27:30,610 --> 00:27:33,210
So what if we, especially this year,

348
00:27:33,370 --> 00:27:36,190
where we're a little maybe behind,

349
00:27:36,990 --> 00:27:39,090
send out personalized cards.

350
00:27:39,550 --> 00:27:40,850
Thank you, cards to them.

351
00:27:41,050 --> 00:27:41,050
And

352
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,060
we can still get those lists of volunteers.

353
00:27:46,980 --> 00:27:47,940
That's not great though.

354
00:27:48,060 --> 00:27:49,660
That's the main reason for that.

355
00:27:50,260 --> 00:27:50,860
I'll get you.

356
00:27:51,180 --> 00:27:52,100
You don't have to hold the hand up.

357
00:27:52,660 --> 00:27:53,000
I'll get you.

358
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:56,780
Don't need to salute me.

359
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:06,860
Here's the thought. I think we could take two pages and do a double spread in the next

360
00:28:06,860 --> 00:28:15,080
year's program and put everybody's name who did it and the chairs and maybe a few photos

361
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:22,360
of the effort so that people look at it and they go, oh, and then you say here's how

362
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:23,960
I have volunteer, how you get it.

363
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,680
I think that they get a lot of satisfaction

364
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,840
seeing their name in that the next year.

365
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,660
Show people working at the Kinstations,

366
00:28:31,140 --> 00:28:33,780
Kinstations stand, people, ushering.

367
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:34,860
That's a great idea.

368
00:28:35,020 --> 00:28:38,920
And we could probably still get those names now

369
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:40,100
for next year.

370
00:28:40,780 --> 00:28:41,820
And we could talk with Sam.

371
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,100
And I don't know if we have pictures from this year,

372
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,480
but there are, I have some pictures of volunteers.

373
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,840
They might have masked on and stuff like that.

374
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:58,620
But I think that that might be the great idea.

375
00:28:58,880 --> 00:28:58,980
Yeah.

376
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,920
So I think there's more people of volunteer than we think too.

377
00:29:03,100 --> 00:29:03,240
Yeah.

378
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:05,840
Every night at the concessions.

379
00:29:06,100 --> 00:29:06,800
There's five.

380
00:29:06,980 --> 00:29:08,000
There's what three concerns.

381
00:29:08,780 --> 00:29:10,040
And there's 30 people.

382
00:29:10,180 --> 00:29:11,600
Sometimes it's the same people.

383
00:29:11,900 --> 00:29:12,720
But I bet there's two.

384
00:29:12,740 --> 00:29:14,300
And it's all put their names in it.

385
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:14,460
Yeah.

386
00:29:14,780 --> 00:29:15,140
Yeah.

387
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:15,800
That's not going to.

388
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,340
But I'm just saying I think there's more.

389
00:29:18,340 --> 00:29:23,260
and I'm trying to get more involved and I know there's no other people see that and they go hey

390
00:29:23,260 --> 00:29:28,720
this is how we get involved yeah you know same like yeah I have the heads over or whatever yeah

391
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:35,060
yeah I actually like that for next year I'm not let's let's roll back to this year opposed to that

392
00:29:35,060 --> 00:29:48,320
but you gave out programs one night how many people actually want those anymore yeah I'm not so

393
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:53,060
talked I knew on the rodeo, cracking up a wrong day, but in the rodeo, they actually talked about

394
00:29:53,060 --> 00:29:59,860
taking it to a QR code. Well, the problem is, is we'll still have, we'll still have some of those.

395
00:30:00,210 --> 00:30:12,390
But, excuse me, like, like I go, I don't fade, don't fall out of your chair. But I go to, watch plays all the time, down at, um,

396
00:30:13,330 --> 00:30:23,890
House, and they don't give you a program anymore. You scan the QR code before you look at it on your phone. Now, I'm not big with that either. I want something to look at. I mean, when I went to

397
00:30:23,890 --> 00:30:28,590
restaurant street, go ahead if they made me do a QR code I left. I wouldn't even because I want to

398
00:30:28,590 --> 00:30:34,050
menu. I want to look at a menu. But I so I understand what you're saying, but we also are looking at the

399
00:30:34,050 --> 00:30:40,690
added cost. This year, you may not remember, but I think this year was a little over $40,000 to

400
00:30:40,690 --> 00:30:46,790
print those programs. And the more pages we add, the more expensive it gets. So I think we need to be

401
00:30:46,790 --> 00:30:53,550
cautious of that. But I mean, so far the rodeos have been able to cover it and take care of it,

402
00:30:53,550 --> 00:30:57,630
But, and we can still discuss this in meetings to come.

403
00:30:58,910 --> 00:31:03,250
My big question is, is this year what do we do?

404
00:31:03,890 --> 00:31:06,150
It sounded like, and I may be speaking out of turn,

405
00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:11,610
but it sounded like everybody was okay with the thank you cards.

406
00:31:12,730 --> 00:31:18,010
But my question is, what night, once we get these cards,

407
00:31:18,250 --> 00:31:22,070
what night would you like to sit down and all side them

408
00:31:22,530 --> 00:31:26,630
as a city council, do you want me just to cite them?

409
00:31:28,290 --> 00:31:30,170
Well, we could have, I mean, if we had the cards,

410
00:31:30,170 --> 00:31:33,430
we could have them here and people could come by and sign.

411
00:31:34,090 --> 00:31:37,390
I mean, I don't, you're not going to get a card for every single person

412
00:31:37,390 --> 00:31:38,630
that worked in the concession stand.

413
00:31:38,890 --> 00:31:41,430
I mean, that's, I don't see how that could happen.

414
00:31:41,530 --> 00:31:43,370
I mean, maybe they had names and addresses.

415
00:31:43,690 --> 00:31:44,830
Well, those people, I don't know.

416
00:31:45,170 --> 00:31:45,830
Well, that's the problem.

417
00:31:45,870 --> 00:31:50,450
If you ask the, if you ask the hedge of the area, you know,

418
00:31:50,450 --> 00:31:57,450
Who's your key people who we'd like to send a thank you car tell us who to send them to so I mean that you know, you would catch

419
00:31:57,450 --> 00:31:58,290
You know

420
00:31:58,910 --> 00:32:01,230
But I'll still say that's 50

421
00:32:01,750 --> 00:32:10,070
Yeah, or seven right. Yeah, so my question is is do we bring them to a city council tonight and we just stay here till they're all signed

422
00:32:11,410 --> 00:32:17,810
Do we print your guys his names on them and I sign it? I mean, I don't know. I don't I'm I'm asking

423
00:32:18,410 --> 00:32:30,650
I think we show up and sign them is that really I don't think that's too much. I don't either but make sure if we're going to do it, we need to do it right. In my opinion, we all should sign personal life.

424
00:32:31,130 --> 00:32:42,110
And we're going to hit the main people, but we're going to leave a lot of people out that we can somehow do a general thank you in the website.

425
00:32:42,510 --> 00:32:43,730
I mean, we can still do it.

426
00:32:43,730 --> 00:32:44,370
Still do that.

427
00:32:44,510 --> 00:32:44,950
I mean, yeah.

428
00:32:45,070 --> 00:32:48,090
But I think at least it's starting the right direction.

429
00:32:48,110 --> 00:32:52,110
And then next year we can get better at it and maybe do my bad.

430
00:32:52,510 --> 00:32:53,430
Well, here's another.

431
00:32:53,890 --> 00:32:56,330
Yeah, for this fall for next.

432
00:32:56,790 --> 00:32:56,990
Yeah.

433
00:32:57,970 --> 00:33:03,850
Here's a quick other thought. How much would it cost us to put something in park record?

434
00:33:04,350 --> 00:33:04,750
Newspaper.

435
00:33:05,490 --> 00:33:09,230
You probably do a story on it. I bet if we did a story on it.

436
00:33:10,310 --> 00:33:11,250
That's a great idea.

437
00:33:11,970 --> 00:33:14,610
Just to thank all the volunteers that we do and we do as part of it.

438
00:33:14,610 --> 00:33:14,910
Thank you.

439
00:33:15,010 --> 00:33:15,990
Park loves that we can.

440
00:33:16,650 --> 00:33:20,190
And maybe we have the park record to a little quick story on our volunteers and how it makes

441
00:33:20,190 --> 00:33:20,950
our rodeo with it.

442
00:33:20,950 --> 00:33:21,090
Yeah.

443
00:33:21,290 --> 00:33:22,310
A big thank you and that.

444
00:33:22,690 --> 00:33:25,690
I bet we could get 90% on the cards.

445
00:33:25,690 --> 00:33:55,070
Yeah, I think I think that the story is story on volunteerism and Oakley is a great that's right thing to think and you could also put if you want to get involved next year, please come back, you know, because I did have three people volunteer to take tickets because they get in on the early right, which is a good good pitch. Well, that maybe change it too. So, so it would also be like the committees that were.

446
00:33:56,090 --> 00:34:02,170
were over it would be it would also be nice to know what was given to them right so if you could

447
00:34:02,170 --> 00:34:08,850
let us know that absolutely that would be great just so so I we can personally thank him and and follow

448
00:34:08,850 --> 00:34:16,130
up on that yeah talking about stipends possibly one on the patriotic festival thing to say take a

449
00:34:16,130 --> 00:34:23,310
little load off a Joe on it if he wants to have that load undone it so Joe's got to be sold at this point

450
00:34:23,310 --> 00:34:36,570
So this is I'm not selling it. This is something we can talk about next time, but I know there's and I think they've addressed a couple of you about this, but there's a group that is that is looking to

451
00:34:41,430 --> 00:35:06,550
I'm just saying that that's a good springboard to get to get it on someone else's plate and to get people more involved and then we don't have the parade fire drill and we have right when we have some the patriotic program doesn't doesn't land on Joe and I've got tons of I mean, I've got tons of feedback on how we can do better and we probably have a meeting on celebration, like events, how, what can we do?

452
00:35:06,570 --> 00:35:10,390
we do to improve those events for next year. We probably ought to spend some time on that, too.

453
00:35:10,510 --> 00:35:14,610
Yeah, and I'm not opposed to that. I'll be honest with you, I think our rodeos taken a step

454
00:35:15,170 --> 00:35:19,970
and we haven't. Yeah, it's been great. Yeah, I think our rodeo step, but now it's time for us.

455
00:35:20,070 --> 00:35:25,470
That's it, and I think people are saying that as now the 4th of July, just turn into a rodeo,

456
00:35:25,530 --> 00:35:29,830
and we're leaving the other events behind, are we going to do it, are we still going to do everything?

457
00:35:30,350 --> 00:35:34,370
So I think that's where we all, we need to have some meat. By the way, the fireworks are phenomenal.

458
00:35:34,370 --> 00:35:41,390
They were really good this year they didn't turn out well, but the patriotic program like I had a ton of complaints

459
00:35:41,390 --> 00:35:47,190
It wasn't inside and if we're gonna do that we need to tell people and I'm sure you guys have heard it from a million people

460
00:35:47,190 --> 00:35:51,810
I hear one complaint about it. You know, I've got I've got a list for you. That's fine

461
00:35:52,430 --> 00:35:57,890
You know what we tried it if we need to take it back inside of the camp or make a tent or have a tent the problem

462
00:35:57,890 --> 00:36:01,930
Yeah, I'm not even opposed to putting up a big tent and we talked about that

463
00:36:01,930 --> 00:36:06,890
I think our Amy and I talked about that during it because we're like no if we got a big tip here

464
00:36:06,890 --> 00:36:08,370
This would probably be a lot better. Yeah

465
00:36:09,190 --> 00:36:12,010
But you know, one of the reasons we moved it outside

466
00:36:12,770 --> 00:36:14,630
And I did get one complaint

467
00:36:15,630 --> 00:36:21,630
Before it even happened, but one of the reasons we went outside is because people were complaining and was too hot inside

468
00:36:22,690 --> 00:36:25,190
There wasn't enough seating and they couldn't hear

469
00:36:26,610 --> 00:36:30,570
So but so now we moved it outside but it was wait the moving outside

470
00:36:30,570 --> 00:36:36,810
I got 1010 to complain on the heat and then it's found and it was it was there was different

471
00:36:36,810 --> 00:36:41,550
You know it would be cool if it gave a great big huge 10 or maybe told me to go mystery around it

472
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:48,120
I think it's got to some I think looking at the cost of a tent cover and doing outside

473
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:52,960
And they like to know what advance because people showed up and they didn't have chairs and they didn't have any

474
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:57,660
Where to sit and there was no there was one rest room and when we locked the building down

475
00:36:57,660 --> 00:37:06,500
So it was just we can do some things better and a lot of so so was they you think we can improve on that or should we just move them back inside?

476
00:37:07,720 --> 00:37:08,600
We should have that.

477
00:37:08,900 --> 00:37:25,400
Yeah, because I can tell you just from my experience, what tenths in the 10th company and and Stephanie me might have better numbers, but like for me, I do two 30 by 60 times. It cost me about 30 grand.

478
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,980
Well, I'm going to mention their in fireworks zone right there. We have it.

479
00:37:29,980 --> 00:37:32,080
That's a good time. We could have it take. Yeah.

480
00:37:33,020 --> 00:37:36,740
You like just for a day? Yeah. Well, no, because we only need it for the one day. Yeah.

481
00:37:37,260 --> 00:37:42,360
We only need it before. So they can come in. Well, yeah, you would have to have one day on the yard.

482
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:46,880
We have a big tent already on the baseball field. Just shipped it over there.

483
00:37:47,220 --> 00:37:49,620
Maybe move it over. You don't have any electricity over there, do we?

484
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:54,360
But then you don't have the rest of the zeta you still have the rest of it.

485
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:59,920
There's the other baseball, and there's the pickable ones over there.

486
00:38:00,180 --> 00:38:03,660
I mean, well, we can have some discussion.

487
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,920
Yeah, we don't have to make that decision now, but let's put it on your radar and let's

488
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:08,860
think about it.

489
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:09,880
Could you do it in the arena?

490
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:12,860
Could we do it in the arena?

491
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,120
That's harder than anything.

492
00:38:15,340 --> 00:38:15,700
Oh, I know.

493
00:38:15,820 --> 00:38:17,160
I've stopped doing this in the rodeo many years.

494
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:17,340
Yeah.

495
00:38:18,100 --> 00:38:22,340
And the problem is, is before that's over, we're getting ready for the junior rodeo.

496
00:38:22,340 --> 00:38:29,540
So like I did the announcement of that and then I was over at the junior rodeo trying to get them set up so you can also also

497
00:38:29,540 --> 00:38:41,040
also took flat because I usually try to attend and I wasn't there this time and so I will make a concerted effort to be at the program every year and I took some

498
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:48,540
a few hits for where were you I didn't see you there and I wasn't there so I should have been to the patriotic program.

499
00:38:50,180 --> 00:39:01,620
Well, I mean, I got the one complaint before it started that everybody else like I was talking to people when I was there, and they liked the idea, so I don't know maybe I, but I left, right?

500
00:39:01,860 --> 00:39:16,740
I mean, I did the announcement and I did that. I hung around for just a minute and then I laughed, so I don't know how bad I got along last and maybe it probably it's worth having a little bit of a meeting to discuss some of these things to make some improvements in certain areas and then get.

501
00:39:16,740 --> 00:39:20,100
And then it sounds like to get the other people involved and get them

502
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:24,360
Running with them more than we're running. Especially if one of us would take it over. Yes

503
00:39:26,500 --> 00:39:33,800
That would get more people involved. Yeah, that would be great. It wouldn't be on our shoulders. There would be a whole different committee running with it, so

504
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,100
Okay, okay, is there any more discussion there? Oh

505
00:39:38,100 --> 00:39:42,920
Well, let's talk about these cards. Yeah, let's talk. I was just gonna say let's talk about the cards

506
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,820
Do we want to get cards? Is everybody sure?

507
00:39:46,460 --> 00:39:52,820
So you can you put down that we need to reach out to the heads and have them get us some names and stuff

508
00:39:53,460 --> 00:39:58,460
We should have we probably have preprinted cards, right? We don't want to write. Thank you so much

509
00:39:58,460 --> 00:40:05,400
No, no, no, we would go out and buy a faking card or something and we would just sign up. Okay. That's my that's my vision

510
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:11,220
Yeah, same we could we could probably have a custom one done from not much more than yeah

511
00:40:11,220 --> 00:40:16,940
Probably about the same price as if you do have to buy that, yeah, oh yeah, we can have we can make one

512
00:40:16,940 --> 00:40:21,720
Do you want to look into that Tom and see if we can yeah, I'll help design it and get it done

513
00:40:21,720 --> 00:40:27,200
Yeah, just get a surprise on it. See how much it would be big for how about a jade's paper connection

514
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:34,760
Is it Scott still do you know? Oh a sock you're talking is he still the science other?

515
00:40:36,720 --> 00:40:40,380
Sometimes newspapers don't like it when people tell them what they need to write. Yeah

516
00:40:41,220 --> 00:40:45,340
art record. My experience is always looking for stories that

517
00:40:45,340 --> 00:40:51,440
well especially for if you sign. Yeah and actually a pre-story say if you really want

518
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,780
rodeo tickets this is what you do. I would be glad to know who have done it really.

519
00:40:57,260 --> 00:41:01,060
We haven't got problems with rodeo tickets. Well if you

520
00:41:01,060 --> 00:41:05,260
and I sat down and had a long talk and she's trying to come up with something else we've

521
00:41:05,260 --> 00:41:08,960
I think Steph was part of that we just threw out a bunch of stuff on the wall and said

522
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,800
but what can we do to make buying rodeo tickets better?

523
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,540
Yeah, so for so, she's got a couple of proposals,

524
00:41:15,540 --> 00:41:17,720
she's going to do it in two or a year.

525
00:41:17,940 --> 00:41:18,940
Someone's going to be mad.

526
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:19,580
Reconciled.

527
00:41:19,580 --> 00:41:20,920
Is it going to be selling?

528
00:41:21,220 --> 00:41:25,020
But if we can lower that by two or three years,

529
00:41:25,260 --> 00:41:27,920
a good discussion, who knows, you might get two or three,

530
00:41:28,060 --> 00:41:28,720
they get upset.

531
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,140
Anyway, so is that our Marching orders then for,

532
00:41:33,660 --> 00:41:36,640
you'll go ahead and get a price and get working on those, right?

533
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,620
and then you want to reach out to the paper and see if they I don't think we

534
00:41:40,620 --> 00:41:43,160
need to tell them what we want to just tell them what we're looking for to do

535
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,260
they make you to the community if they come up and say well public we do

536
00:41:46,260 --> 00:41:51,540
something on board that's a great idea I want to have an interview uh who do you

537
00:41:51,540 --> 00:41:57,620
want to have them interview I don't care I think the mayor is possible okay just

538
00:41:57,620 --> 00:42:04,760
got on Joe he can keep his playing I like probably speaking okay it doesn't

539
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:09,000
matter. And I might reach out to a few of you to come in. You know, I think the more people

540
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:14,500
they talk to, the better. You know, hey, you know, council member nefs said this, council member

541
00:42:15,140 --> 00:42:19,160
smarts said this, mayors said, you know what I mean, some of that. Well, I think you're each over

542
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:24,220
different things that require volunteerism. And so speaking as to how that helps, you know,

543
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:28,820
in your world, how it helps the celebration go off, I think it's really, really good.

544
00:42:29,340 --> 00:42:34,000
And can we just put a general thing on the social media website, you know,

545
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,380
Thank you all the great volunteers who helped make the road go in celebration.

546
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,060
I think we probably want to do about about the time we're sending them out.

547
00:42:42,180 --> 00:42:43,520
Yeah, probably a good idea.

548
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:45,880
Have it all were kind of released at the same time.

549
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:46,260
Yeah.

550
00:42:46,940 --> 00:42:48,020
So here's the other question.

551
00:42:48,740 --> 00:42:58,880
Do we do want to talk to the committee's people that we are over and get names from them on who this like the 10 or 20 that they were.

552
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:05,960
We're so each compartment that you're over will get we'd like you to reach out and get names for that, please, okay?

553
00:43:08,700 --> 00:43:11,880
Yeah, and if we can just generate those, we know how many cards to order exactly.

554
00:43:12,140 --> 00:43:13,360
It's like a central application.

555
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:14,780
So about me or Amy.

556
00:43:15,100 --> 00:43:15,660
Yeah, Amy.

557
00:43:15,900 --> 00:43:19,100
Amy should be back or step, but as you get them, just send them to Amy.

558
00:43:19,300 --> 00:43:21,020
We'll have to do a little spreadsheet or something.

559
00:43:21,700 --> 00:43:23,100
Get them up for you down on what we need.

560
00:43:23,820 --> 00:43:24,880
Everybody okay with that?

561
00:43:26,420 --> 00:43:26,820
Okay.

562
00:43:27,100 --> 00:43:28,280
Let's roll forward with that then.

563
00:43:29,100 --> 00:43:32,580
Okay, item six is off the table. Let's go to Mayor Reports.

564
00:43:34,240 --> 00:43:40,260
We have lots of Mayor Reports that we can talk about. You guys can bring up questions

565
00:43:40,260 --> 00:43:46,780
whatever you want to do as we go through this. First of all is the backboard or the back

566
00:43:46,780 --> 00:43:53,120
code purchase. We talked about that in the past. We talked about it in a budget. It's 17,500

567
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:57,200
annually. The price did not go up. It's exactly what we've been paying in years past.

568
00:43:58,820 --> 00:44:09,720
So that's been sent off. We've done that some of county public work or safety contract. I have not signed that yet. It's sitting on my desk.

569
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:20,700
They did not increase this year. They did keep the the the amount exactly the same. So the contract is virtually the same as last year.

570
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:27,800
But everybody okay with that and be signing that moving forward there do we still think it's helping?

571
00:44:29,020 --> 00:44:35,400
I do and I'll tell you there's a couple of things that I think comes along with that I think I

572
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:46,060
I reached out to some of county's horse, but it was right about it possible.

573
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,480
They issued quite a few tickets on Newlink, just off their horses.

574
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,660
Yeah, I went down and watched out work and it was actually really good.

575
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:56,760
They could stay off the road.

576
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,560
course, they stay back and they can

577
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:29,860
They'll clicker, they get cars coming both directions. They just walk their horses right out in the middle of the road and start telling people to slow down. Then they go over and pass for everything and they give them tickets. I want to be sure, but I got a horse doing his radar. I don't know how to use that new favorite for sure. It is funny because one of them had the the radar gun, but his horse moves, he can't get it. He's like, I said, jeez, by the time you got to freaking go, they saw you and slowed down.

578
00:45:30,340 --> 00:45:40,800
But we had a good time with that. I think we need to utilize them more. I think that we should discuss some areas.

579
00:45:41,020 --> 00:45:46,560
I probably at least won't meet in a month. We had to discuss some areas that maybe could be problematic.

580
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:55,400
Or if you're getting any complaints. Mill or new lane is still complaint. Mill race, I think it slows down a little bit, but not much.

581
00:45:55,400 --> 00:46:08,600
Um, I'm still getting a lot of complaints. In fact, I'm going to reach out to the sheriff probably sometime this week. I'm still getting complaints. The kids are going over the rodeo grounds at midnight to two o'clock in the morning and doing.

582
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:17,080
You know, drinking beer and just having fun. So I'm going to ask the sheriff to start controlling that.

583
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:21,900
just go through it, you know, and sporadically because we don't want to get a pattern, right?

584
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,080
But at least get them going through there and see if we can get some of that shit down as well.

585
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:33,480
Some of the best news for us is item C.

586
00:46:38,270 --> 00:46:42,270
I think it was mid, I think it was in the June.

587
00:46:43,830 --> 00:46:51,690
I visited with Steve Smith just out in front of Ken's and talked to him about getting the

588
00:46:51,690 --> 00:46:56,310
grease trap repaired and fixed over at the diner.

589
00:46:57,810 --> 00:47:01,170
Steve was all on board with it, said, yeah, let's get it done.

590
00:47:02,170 --> 00:47:03,710
And it started a little rough.

591
00:47:04,130 --> 00:47:05,270
I shouldn't even say rough.

592
00:47:05,490 --> 00:47:06,610
Steve was actually really good.

593
00:47:07,590 --> 00:47:11,290
He asked about, you know, are we shirts him?

594
00:47:12,350 --> 00:47:16,750
I said no, we're not sure because we haven't had a way to test it.

595
00:47:17,270 --> 00:47:19,490
I told him that we have tried everywhere else.

596
00:47:19,550 --> 00:47:21,330
We've got every other place in town.

597
00:47:22,370 --> 00:47:24,550
And we're coming to him now by default.

598
00:47:24,550 --> 00:47:28,850
There's nothing else for those of you that are aware of this.

599
00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:31,570
We have a big inspection at the end of the year.

600
00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:33,890
And they're going to be testing our facility.

601
00:47:33,890 --> 00:47:40,170
And we have had work that if we fail, but because of some of these issues, we made

602
00:47:40,170 --> 00:47:42,630
Luz Aqua engineering, and they may walk away.

603
00:47:44,410 --> 00:47:48,550
So I don't know how you guys feel, but I don't think we need Aqua walking away around.

604
00:47:51,410 --> 00:47:59,890
So he had me get with Shad, I got with Shad, had some great conversations, I helped him

605
00:47:59,890 --> 00:48:03,530
get set up with TyCon, came in and did the work.

606
00:48:05,450 --> 00:48:09,230
It took them about two days, full disclosure.

607
00:48:12,350 --> 00:48:17,270
There were whoever did the work on the facility,

608
00:48:19,250 --> 00:48:20,850
they bypassed the grease trap.

609
00:48:21,690 --> 00:48:24,130
So they had one line going into the grease trap

610
00:48:24,130 --> 00:48:25,790
and another one going to the side of it,

611
00:48:25,930 --> 00:48:27,150
and going into our sewer system.

612
00:48:27,430 --> 00:48:27,830
That's a surprise.

613
00:48:27,830 --> 00:48:33,770
I called the state, they talked to a lot of people they said they said they're finding

614
00:48:33,770 --> 00:48:37,210
that out and need more and more with contractors.

615
00:48:38,730 --> 00:48:46,350
When I talked to Steve and to chat about it they both seemed very like surprised by that.

616
00:48:48,450 --> 00:48:54,430
So there's some other stuff going on but yeah it was it was being bypassed altogether.

617
00:48:54,430 --> 00:49:00,870
So, need us to stay, we got up fixed, we got to put in, we shut them down for minimal time.

618
00:49:01,490 --> 00:49:09,210
In fact, the guys had it so prepared that when we actually did the move over, the diamond was actually shut down for five minutes.

619
00:49:09,790 --> 00:49:10,570
May have been 10.

620
00:49:11,750 --> 00:49:12,570
That's all shut down.

621
00:49:12,570 --> 00:49:20,810
And also all we did is that we went, you know, the guys went to him and said, don't run anything down your sinks for until we come back and tell you.

622
00:49:21,370 --> 00:49:36,190
By the time he went back out it was done. So he turned around right back in and said okay, so we didn't expect to see it had changed in the sewer plant for a few months, of course.

623
00:49:37,270 --> 00:49:41,850
Those of you who went down to the sewer plant before all this.

624
00:49:42,590 --> 00:49:43,890
I've been down there before.

625
00:49:44,410 --> 00:49:56,030
So you guys saw the grease that were sitting on the point, so timing wasn't an issue with

626
00:49:56,030 --> 00:50:00,630
the diner busiest month or the busiest two months was July and August.

627
00:50:01,390 --> 00:50:03,050
I was asking them to do this in July.

628
00:50:04,330 --> 00:50:09,930
So we took the break between the 24th and the 4th and we got the dates in.

629
00:50:09,930 --> 00:50:11,970
and we all agree, we got everything together,

630
00:50:12,110 --> 00:50:14,250
how to order a pair, it went seamless.

631
00:50:14,430 --> 00:50:16,390
It was a great thing actually.

632
00:50:17,770 --> 00:50:21,870
We have already seen improvements at the...

633
00:50:21,870 --> 00:50:22,950
That's what I was gonna say.

634
00:50:23,170 --> 00:50:25,890
If it was being bypassed, you're gonna see some...

635
00:50:25,890 --> 00:50:27,530
Well, we saw this stuff running through, right?

636
00:50:27,810 --> 00:50:30,470
But the thing is, is there was so much of it,

637
00:50:30,550 --> 00:50:32,330
we just weren't expecting to see anything.

638
00:50:32,950 --> 00:50:36,850
We have one pond that only has grease in the corners.

639
00:50:37,130 --> 00:50:39,210
You can see the water on the tautel.

640
00:50:39,210 --> 00:50:44,310
So it's that's the improvement. It's made our we're not even a month out. That's awesome. And we

641
00:50:44,310 --> 00:50:50,350
thought for sure nothing at least for 30 days. So one of them is completely done out. Our sewer plant

642
00:50:50,350 --> 00:50:55,530
is coming back up. We had some issues where it went dormant a couple of times before we went this

643
00:50:55,530 --> 00:51:02,350
because it was so clogged and we're just shutting down. So, um, Kindle and the guys were able to get

644
00:51:02,350 --> 00:51:09,670
that set going forward. And we got that fixed. Yeah, that's that's that's a

645
00:51:09,670 --> 00:51:14,430
great way to have off our table. So that was that was a good that was a good

646
00:51:14,430 --> 00:51:19,510
win for us. Because the deadline was like September, I think. Well, the end of the

647
00:51:19,510 --> 00:51:24,930
year, I think was a year. I think I think they're going to do their testing in the

648
00:51:24,930 --> 00:51:29,190
end of December. And the results were coming out first of January. So I mean, I

649
00:51:29,190 --> 00:51:33,950
like I think we gave them like 90 days and I think that went nice into the

650
00:51:33,950 --> 00:51:41,090
fall that was nice they did it early yeah we got it yeah it helped so I'm

651
00:51:41,090 --> 00:51:46,130
beyond excited that that's done another plate so yes that was a big one sitting

652
00:51:46,130 --> 00:51:53,950
over our massive I have to admit and I wish Kendall was listening Kendall put a

653
00:51:53,950 --> 00:51:59,830
cracker under my butt a little bit and got me going and he it was funny he

654
00:51:59,830 --> 00:52:03,730
apologized a thousand times for getting frustrated with me and I said

655
00:52:03,730 --> 00:52:09,910
Kindle sometimes I need a butt kickin too let me know and he he probably the

656
00:52:09,910 --> 00:52:16,490
hardest and I to be honest with you I hung up the phone with him and pulled around

657
00:52:16,490 --> 00:52:24,250
the corner and saw Steve at the kids' cash. Stop behind him that on my

658
00:52:24,250 --> 00:52:30,170
truck when talking. First I wasn't having my butt chewed my Dallas again. So I

659
00:52:31,030 --> 00:52:35,850
commend Dallas for that. It was a Dallas. It was Dallas. It was Dallas. Okay.

660
00:52:36,390 --> 00:52:41,730
Dallas, you know, I know that's hard sometimes to go to your boss and kind of

661
00:52:41,730 --> 00:52:46,730
a little frustrated, but he's been sharpened on that for a year.

662
00:52:47,070 --> 00:52:52,290
He handled it professionally, and I took it, and I understood where he was coming from.

663
00:52:52,390 --> 00:52:58,230
I felt like I was the reason, and so I took care of it, really did that right away,

664
00:52:58,770 --> 00:53:01,270
and looking at our end result was awesome, so that was good.

665
00:53:01,650 --> 00:53:03,250
It takes all of us, right?

666
00:53:03,770 --> 00:53:07,570
So I've thanked him a million times for that, I just think that was big.

667
00:53:07,690 --> 00:53:08,030
Good move.

668
00:53:08,030 --> 00:53:18,880
So just on a side note with that, I sat down with Dallas and with Daxton.

669
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:23,340
Some of you guys that have been on the committee for a long time.

670
00:53:24,180 --> 00:53:31,200
When we lost our sewer stuff, we, you'll remember we hired Aqua to do that.

671
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:38,200
We pay Aqua somewhere around $60,000 a year, I think, to help keep our sewer plan up and

672
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:43,800
running. But if you guys remember those over there, I think it's just YouTube probably.

673
00:53:44,460 --> 00:53:53,300
If you remember, our outlook on the whole thing was to not have Aqua do it forever. The

674
00:53:53,300 --> 00:54:08,180
idea was to get somebody trained in the wake and getting going on it. So Dallas or I mean,

675
00:54:08,180 --> 00:54:16,160
So with, I don't even, is it, what committee do they call that role water or whatever,

676
00:54:16,420 --> 00:54:16,980
the role one?

677
00:54:17,340 --> 00:54:23,880
And so he is basically one certificate away from being able to run any sewer plant

678
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:29,300
in the state of Utah, or maybe more, I don't know, but at least Utah, he should be getting

679
00:54:29,300 --> 00:54:30,140
that in September.

680
00:54:30,980 --> 00:54:33,900
So I sat down with him, we had a long talk.

681
00:54:35,140 --> 00:54:38,860
He doesn't know if he's going to be restricted or unrestricted.

682
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,020
He's thinking he's probably going to be restricted.

683
00:54:41,860 --> 00:54:47,660
But at that point, I am looking forward to having a conversation with your guys' approval.

684
00:54:48,180 --> 00:54:53,040
Having a discussion with Aqua and having Aqua step back.

685
00:54:54,580 --> 00:54:57,840
Let Dax to start running the plan for more.

686
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:05,040
and if he's restricted we would probably just keep Aqua on as a retainer just so

687
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:09,800
that they he can be overlooking what Daxson is doing and I think that would cover

688
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:13,380
Daxson's going to check on it and make sure but we think that could take some of

689
00:55:13,380 --> 00:55:22,180
the restrictions off of him. I also want to talk about, and I don't remember the

690
00:55:22,180 --> 00:55:33,800
exact ward, but last year we got most improved, you'll find this odd, I did. We got the most improved

691
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,440
sewer upgrades and stuff last year, and those guys were awarded.

692
00:55:39,900 --> 00:55:41,200
And I'm not saying that you

693
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:45,660
guys have two or anything else, but they went down there and we got this award, and none of us even

694
00:55:45,660 --> 00:55:52,020
know about it. We didn't even go. So I think as the mayor, I think I'm going to find out what it is

695
00:55:52,020 --> 00:56:00,620
and do everything I can to be there this year, because it sounds like Daxton, he's the first one

696
00:56:00,620 --> 00:56:07,080
to go through the program, and he's going to be the first graduate. So it sounds like rural waters

697
00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:14,340
want to do something big for him. And so I think if the most more of us they could go down and support

698
00:56:14,340 --> 00:56:15,280
that I think the better.

699
00:56:15,720 --> 00:56:16,700
No, Parker, I do.

700
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:18,920
When September sometime, I'm not sure.

701
00:56:19,140 --> 00:56:20,900
Probably I'm guessing from the end of September,

702
00:56:21,660 --> 00:56:23,240
but I'm not 100% sure.

703
00:56:23,260 --> 00:56:25,120
If we can let us know, and I will,

704
00:56:25,240 --> 00:56:26,260
we can do that, get to that.

705
00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:29,480
But if we can get daxed into that level,

706
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:30,700
and he can start running it,

707
00:56:31,180 --> 00:56:33,280
that would put Dallas strictly over water.

708
00:56:33,580 --> 00:56:35,660
I would put him over sewer,

709
00:56:35,660 --> 00:56:37,160
and I think we'll be miles ahead

710
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:38,980
and saving a little bit of money.

711
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:41,740
And obviously, we're going to,

712
00:56:41,740 --> 00:56:48,480
You know, we we told Dallas or well, we've told Dallas and doxton both that when they get certificates

713
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,480
We would give them a bump and raise and so

714
00:56:52,620 --> 00:56:53,860
as far as I know

715
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:57,440
Doxton hasn't come to us

716
00:56:58,100 --> 00:57:01,440
When he's got some certificates. He's just kind of kept them

717
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,440
But if he gets the point where he can run that sewer blood on his own

718
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:08,660
I think he's gonna. Yeah, that's a big deal. We need to take care of him because of that way you can leave us

719
00:57:08,660 --> 00:57:15,620
I think when he does, I think we're still going to need that retainer, just because we want him to be able to take

720
00:57:15,620 --> 00:57:22,300
vacations and have a good quality of life and have them be able to fill in because really they helped us so much.

721
00:57:22,500 --> 00:57:27,900
Well, and the retainer does not have to be that much really. I think they'd be happy doing that.

722
00:57:28,300 --> 00:57:36,120
Well, and it was funny because I think Larry would love to have his office plate and I think he would support

723
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:41,540
this haul on. I think the retainers perfect. I think that would work out well. Yeah, you know,

724
00:57:41,580 --> 00:57:45,640
the mistake we have, we have two brothers that are doing it. So they usually want to go and

725
00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:52,840
vacation together. So the last vacation they did, Kendall took over. He would just get calls from

726
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:57,120
Aqua if there was a problem. He could run over and they could walk into the switches and stuff. So

727
00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:04,840
that was good. Another thing that we have coming at us is how you're going to get me on the name of

728
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:14,200
them see CLPs or something like that. They're the valves that go back and forth with our drinking water

729
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:23,120
and the culinary water. They're all new. Our skater system is old and so they're not reading all

730
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:33,900
the time. So we get shutdowns on water up the Weaver Canyon area. Dallas has spent a lot of times

731
00:58:33,900 --> 00:58:39,200
going up there and manually opening valves and closing valves. The other problem we have,

732
00:58:39,580 --> 00:58:46,780
just so everybody's aware, the other problem that we're having is power outages.

733
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,280
And we're losing power, which in turn makes us lose networks.

734
00:58:51,980 --> 00:59:01,260
I thought the generator solved that. So the generator doesn't solve our networking problems.

735
00:59:01,260 --> 00:59:10,340
So the generator just got put in that has helped for sure, but we are updating the computer.

736
00:59:10,980 --> 00:59:17,320
The brains at the skater system, so it'll help read these newer valves and open and close.

737
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:23,280
So I don't know, so help with the shutdown power.

738
00:59:24,660 --> 00:59:30,900
The only other thing that, and we're way ahead of that, we're working on that, we're getting through to that.

739
00:59:31,420 --> 00:59:35,600
The other thing that we have hitting us is internet

740
00:59:37,970 --> 00:59:40,330
and all that needs to go.

741
00:59:40,670 --> 00:59:46,830
So, and we're having a lot of internet shortages and losing internet service during the nights and stuff like that.

742
00:59:46,830 --> 00:59:59,030
And so we are looking into, I've asked Amy to look into Starlink, she has talked to Arlie

743
00:59:59,030 --> 00:59:59,590
the A's on.

744
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:06,720
With our phones and all of our networking and stuff, and E said, that's absolutely probably one of the best backups you can do.

745
01:00:08,900 --> 01:00:29,720
But there is a monthly fee to that, so we're trying to work through that. And as soon as I get that information, I'll bring that back to you guys and we can discuss that. But for, I think we'll have to have two of them, we'll have to have one at the, at the well house, and then we'll have to have another one down here. So. Any questions there, that makes sense.

746
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:35,000
to get something like that, so we're not shutting down.

747
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:43,180
The Starlink has one where you get is a little bare package and they give you a second dish.

748
01:00:43,540 --> 01:00:48,900
That might be something we could look at because it might have to buy two separate systems.

749
01:00:49,140 --> 01:00:54,820
We're looking in that the cheapest possibility, you know, so Rob, is that his name?

750
01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:56,200
Steph, do you remember?

751
01:00:56,200 --> 01:01:03,580
So Russ is looking back, he's, once he said it was very viable, we should look at that.

752
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,060
We have him working on what's the most cost effective for Oakley City.

753
01:01:07,220 --> 01:01:09,740
So we are in that process.

754
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:10,520
Good.

755
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:12,460
So any questions there?

756
01:01:12,540 --> 01:01:13,660
We've been busy.

757
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:15,900
Sorry guys.

758
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:16,720
We've been busy.

759
01:01:17,020 --> 01:01:24,000
Um, the celebration committee, um, proposal coming from a member of the public, we all know

760
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:29,920
that is I think we've talked about it briefly. They do want to come in and give us a proposal and

761
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:34,720
I said we would accept them with open arms if they wanted to come in and try and do something.

762
01:01:35,060 --> 01:01:38,860
So I'm glad you guys have already talked to it and sounds like you're open-minded. It sounds like

763
01:01:38,860 --> 01:01:44,880
it'll be good. And I think they're playing in September meeting. Yeah. Fire update.

764
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,740
Colville got booted. We all know they got no doubt.

765
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:54,180
Penifer, right? Did it go to Colville too?

766
01:01:54,500 --> 01:01:55,600
Colville was first.

767
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:58,460
Whoa. Colville got moved out first.

768
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,600
The fire moved out of Colville up to the mountain.

769
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:02,380
Hit the mountain.

770
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:04,280
Wins and everything up there.

771
01:02:04,460 --> 01:02:06,280
Turned the fire, brought it back down to Hennifer.

772
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:06,880
Wow.

773
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,540
So the very next day, Hennifer was evacuated.

774
01:02:09,940 --> 01:02:11,140
Or at least put on notice.

775
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:19,140
It sounds like a lot of that's been somewhat under control, but the emergency alert issue

776
01:02:19,140 --> 01:02:23,000
that came out, Tom and I were talking about this a little bit before y'all got here.

777
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:27,840
It's set panic into a lot of people, it was done by mistake.

778
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:35,440
As soon as it hit, I was actually just coming off the mountain and I just pulled into service

779
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:47,800
when I got it so my time it could have been any better and I immediately got an email from our county

780
01:02:47,800 --> 01:03:00,340
council. Megan McKinnon. Megan McKinnon. So she reached out and said hey we're really sorry this was

781
01:03:00,340 --> 01:03:05,340
done by mistake. I don't know everywhere but I know it went to Wasatch because I got one on

782
01:03:05,340 --> 01:03:15,760
on some county and Wasatch. We were going back and forth. I had contacted Amy or Amy contacted me.

783
01:03:15,900 --> 01:03:25,860
I don't even remember which everything was happening so fast. We posted social media and on our website

784
01:03:25,860 --> 01:03:33,620
I just as fast as we could, letting people know that it was a false alarm and but obviously

785
01:03:33,620 --> 01:03:36,080
people still were in a rampage.

786
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:43,420
I was still getting some phone calls on it, but what I found very interesting is why

787
01:03:43,420 --> 01:03:48,580
I was working through all this, I got a phone call from Wasatch County and when I answered

788
01:03:48,580 --> 01:03:53,540
the phone, it was a recording saying that this message had gone out in the air and you were

789
01:03:53,540 --> 01:03:54,820
safe and didn't need to move.

790
01:03:54,820 --> 01:04:02,660
And so I immediately hung up the phone and got all the Megan and said hey could we do something like this for some a county.

791
01:04:02,980 --> 01:04:06,380
If Wasas County can do it, some county ought to be able to do it.

792
01:04:06,980 --> 01:04:14,360
And I didn't personally see it, but I did get some phone calls and some text messages from people that did see it come back from the county.

793
01:04:14,420 --> 01:04:15,140
I never got anything.

794
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:19,060
So we'll work on that going forward.

795
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:21,680
Thanks for how all you guys responded.

796
01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:24,280
especially Stephanie for getting on social media.

797
01:04:24,460 --> 01:04:26,080
Yeah, and it was funny.

798
01:04:26,220 --> 01:04:28,680
My wife, the Stephanie to the social media.

799
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:31,200
As soon as we've got it, did you see that?

800
01:04:32,220 --> 01:04:33,720
Carla and I were in the car and I said,

801
01:04:33,940 --> 01:04:34,960
we gotta do something.

802
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:36,960
She said, let's get on social media right now.

803
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:39,260
And I'm like, well, you're the social media queen.

804
01:04:39,260 --> 01:04:40,040
You go for it.

805
01:04:40,060 --> 01:04:42,200
So she jumped on and then I think that,

806
01:04:42,380 --> 01:04:43,900
did you call me and I, I don't remember.

807
01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:46,220
I texted you and was like, do you want me to respond?

808
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:47,520
Oh, and then I called you, right?

809
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:49,780
So now it's shortly after Carla did it.

810
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:50,440
So yeah, I was,

811
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:56,680
I thought the way it was all reactive. I think I think I'm happy as a city

812
01:04:56,680 --> 01:05:02,560
How we react to it and how we got the information back out as quick as we can I know it was still hostile

813
01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:08,320
Some people and and that's okay. I think that's gonna happen no matter what but I think all at all

814
01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:15,560
I think we handled it pretty quick and and and we got the information out what network do you guys have

815
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:19,760
Your cell phone carrier. I have a rice. Okay. I

816
01:05:20,540 --> 01:05:26,340
I was with my wife and daughter and they both got it on AT&T and I got nothing on Verizon really

817
01:05:26,340 --> 01:05:30,960
I got a card and my phone was going off at the same time. Isn't that weird? Yeah, it was annoying

818
01:05:31,460 --> 01:05:38,000
Yeah, but I was like expecting something and I got nothing I've Verizon and I got it. Yeah, I wonder what's up

819
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:40,140
They don't care about sometimes it's

820
01:05:40,140 --> 01:05:44,280
Interesting, okay

821
01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:47,180
Interesting, okay, so

822
01:05:47,180 --> 01:05:57,160
So item F is there's been some talk about code enforcement, so we're going to get into

823
01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:58,960
a couple of little different issues here.

824
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:07,140
Some of you may not be aware of this, but we have some complaints of people writing

825
01:06:07,140 --> 01:06:11,480
motorcycles up on our bicycle track.

826
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:14,900
We know who it was.

827
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:16,620
We have pictures of them.

828
01:06:17,140 --> 01:06:22,680
The community did a very good job of of of document it and getting it all in.

829
01:06:25,980 --> 01:06:27,960
And I wasn't sure.

830
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:32,260
It's the first time I had ever had to come across something like that.

831
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:37,820
So I reached out to the sheriff's department because I was kind of trying to figure out.

832
01:06:38,380 --> 01:06:39,900
how we want to go about this.

833
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:45,100
So I first thought maybe I would just go to the house

834
01:06:45,100 --> 01:06:46,480
and talk to them.

835
01:06:48,020 --> 01:06:49,600
I was informed by the police.

836
01:06:49,820 --> 01:06:51,860
That was the worst idea I could come up with.

837
01:06:52,740 --> 01:06:54,220
And I should not go over there

838
01:06:54,220 --> 01:06:56,480
and I should not send any counsel member over there.

839
01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,580
And he asked me about code enforcement.

840
01:07:00,180 --> 01:07:02,740
And it's funny because we were talking about code enforcement

841
01:07:02,740 --> 01:07:05,380
and I know code enforcement has been brought up

842
01:07:05,380 --> 01:07:07,080
with step lately and so on and so forth.

843
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:13,820
So I think this is a good time to bring it up he asked you our code enforcement was I said we didn't have anybody

844
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:22,380
We used to have somebody in here in the office, but I think they got bullied and I think they got a little nervous to go do code enforcement

845
01:07:22,380 --> 01:07:37,060
So they kind of quit which you can understand that's pretty totally so when I was talking to the officer he said that we're pretty

846
01:07:37,060 --> 01:07:43,240
now. And he suggested that maybe we reach out to him, kind of put him on a retainer

847
01:07:44,380 --> 01:07:51,480
and let's just pay him per job of whatever we need him to do. So I'm coming through this

848
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:57,500
and around about story. So when I talked to the police, they brought this up. We talked

849
01:07:57,500 --> 01:08:03,420
about that a little bit and they said that they could wholeheartedly go to the home,

850
01:08:05,580 --> 01:08:05,680
they

851
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:09,780
They could not enforce anything because it's in ordinance that we have.

852
01:08:10,740 --> 01:08:12,660
And so they couldn't enforce anything.

853
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:21,240
So they said before we do that, that I should probably call our city attorney.

854
01:08:22,260 --> 01:08:23,700
So I reached out to Lisa.

855
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:26,640
I said her in the ordinance.

856
01:08:27,970 --> 01:08:29,380
We went through a bunch of stuff.

857
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:35,120
Lisa also told me, can I call you Lisa or should I call you?

858
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:36,660
Okay, Councillor Baskin.

859
01:08:37,460 --> 01:08:38,760
Well, you have to call me goddess.

860
01:08:40,220 --> 01:08:40,700
Goddess?

861
01:08:41,540 --> 01:08:42,020
Wow.

862
01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:43,000
Wow.

863
01:08:43,620 --> 01:08:45,080
You could call me Lisa.

864
01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:46,800
Thanks Lisa.

865
01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:49,820
So I reached out to Lisa.

866
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:50,800
We had a long talk.

867
01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:53,740
She also informed me not to go there.

868
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,840
And she also informed me not to send any of you guys there.

869
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:00,560
We really needed a code enforcement.

870
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:02,760
And so we talked through some of that.

871
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:05,220
I told her about this to over in the conversation I had.

872
01:09:06,060 --> 01:09:08,660
Anyway, I'm trying to show this story up as much as I can.

873
01:09:09,980 --> 01:09:12,480
So there were some decisions that we had to make.

874
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:17,220
So on our ordinance,

875
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:24,260
it states that we can charge them $750 per motorcycle,

876
01:09:24,700 --> 01:09:26,360
for example, and there was two of them.

877
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:28,920
But the only way that we could,

878
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:30,800
wow, and restitution, right?

879
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:38,420
so it's all it's the bikes and restitution. So the way our ordinance is written the only way

880
01:09:39,020 --> 01:09:46,020
that we can hit on with the 750 bucks was to um what's the order I'm looking for?

881
01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:46,940
Do you set the

882
01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:54,340
waiting for you?

883
01:09:56,840 --> 01:10:02,540
That is the criminal aspect of it. It's a prosecution of

884
01:10:02,540 --> 01:10:03,520
Classy misdemeanor.

885
01:10:03,820 --> 01:10:05,280
We had to prosecute it.

886
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:11,600
And so Tom and I talked about it.

887
01:10:12,700 --> 01:10:15,780
I don't know, Tom, wholeheartedly agreed 100%.

888
01:10:15,780 --> 01:10:18,820
But we want to make a statement here

889
01:10:19,340 --> 01:10:22,340
that I thought to prosecute him on a first offense

890
01:10:22,340 --> 01:10:23,560
was probably a little far.

891
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:30,100
So with that being said, here's a certified letter

892
01:10:30,100 --> 01:10:30,880
that was sent out.

893
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:34,000
I'll hand it out and let you guys read it.

894
01:10:35,220 --> 01:10:40,420
It basically states that we're not going to prosecute at this point.

895
01:10:41,220 --> 01:10:44,060
They are in violation.

896
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,680
They do need to pay the restitution.

897
01:10:48,620 --> 01:10:49,680
So that is part of it.

898
01:10:49,900 --> 01:10:56,800
They have a certain amount of time I think in here to pay the restitution and then our ordinance

899
01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:57,740
is put with it.

900
01:10:59,060 --> 01:11:05,520
So, I'll give you all one of those so you can know that was actually bailed out yesterday, I think.

901
01:11:06,100 --> 01:11:09,500
By the time we got it written and I got it signed, it got sent out yesterday.

902
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:15,820
And it should be hitting their house any time.

903
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:17,480
I'm waiting for my soul to go.

904
01:11:17,580 --> 01:11:19,980
So, it's restitution to do something on the trail.

905
01:11:20,480 --> 01:11:25,700
So, restitution is to fix what they broke, which we had somebody go look at.

906
01:11:25,700 --> 01:11:32,940
it looks like it will probably be currently from wrong time, but about 600 bucks, what do they bring?

907
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:37,520
If you want to look at the back, there's a few pictures of it.

908
01:11:39,860 --> 01:11:41,700
If you notice on this one ramp,

909
01:11:41,820 --> 01:11:45,480
the top boards grow, so they'll have to probably get a new board on that.

910
01:11:54,480 --> 01:11:55,240
They'll probably have to

911
01:11:55,240 --> 01:12:00,260
happen again. I think I think we can get them for trust pass

912
01:12:00,260 --> 01:12:04,260
about not mistaken Lisa and that we would we would go

913
01:12:04,260 --> 01:12:09,400
hardly right after them prosecute. With that being said,

914
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:15,020
and I hope everybody's okay with that. I think Tom, were you

915
01:12:15,020 --> 01:12:19,240
okay with that at the end and was Howard okay with that at the end?

916
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:22,840
Uh, you know Howard was off the grid and I haven't talked to him

917
01:12:23,300 --> 01:12:29,640
specifically, but I, you know, I mean, none of us really want to have to deal with this,

918
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:33,440
but it was almost forced, honestly, because they were a little bit different to everybody.

919
01:12:33,660 --> 01:12:40,320
Our hands were tied. We had to do something. So we did, well,

920
01:12:42,390 --> 01:12:44,190
I did what I think is pretty,

921
01:12:44,630 --> 01:12:48,070
they still have to pay for it. They still have to do it. I thought it was pretty fair,

922
01:12:49,130 --> 01:12:55,430
but quite honestly they tied our hands. Now they can appeal. There isn't appeal process,

923
01:12:56,210 --> 01:13:03,570
but if they appeal it goes to Doug Clyde and I'm not sure they want to appeal, but that's up to

924
01:13:03,570 --> 01:13:13,310
them. Anyway, that keeps you guys up the speed. Thank you. These are appeal authorities. And that's

925
01:13:13,310 --> 01:13:17,930
funny because I didn't know that and Lisa asked me and I told her we didn't have one.

926
01:13:18,650 --> 01:13:21,990
So when I got off the phone with her and I called Amy and he says, yes, we have one.

927
01:13:22,330 --> 01:13:24,490
I said, okay, we called Lisa and tell her I'm an idiot.

928
01:13:25,190 --> 01:13:27,910
So anyway, he knows the stuff.

929
01:13:29,790 --> 01:13:32,890
So anyway, that's where we're at with the situation.

930
01:13:33,470 --> 01:13:40,570
With that being said, Lisa has suggested that maybe we pull this ordinance back up and maybe

931
01:13:40,570 --> 01:13:45,970
He changed the language in a little bit, so we don't have to prosecute necessarily.

932
01:13:47,450 --> 01:13:48,450
That's up to us.

933
01:13:48,830 --> 01:13:51,090
We can decide to change that or not.

934
01:13:51,290 --> 01:13:56,410
We can get to that when we get to that, but right now it's down the road.

935
01:13:56,630 --> 01:14:00,790
So we'll see how this turns out, we'll see how where this goes, and we'll kind of go

936
01:14:00,790 --> 01:14:01,150
from there.

937
01:14:02,410 --> 01:14:02,610
Okay.

938
01:14:03,210 --> 01:14:03,710
We're good.

939
01:14:03,970 --> 01:14:04,170
Thank you.

940
01:14:04,310 --> 01:14:04,350
Thank you.

941
01:14:05,510 --> 01:14:13,050
as you can see, we've been, we've been, we've been hugging down the road, we haven't had meetings, but I've been busy.

942
01:14:14,370 --> 01:14:21,990
Hopefully I haven't done anything you guys disagree with, but we've just been chugging along and trying to get some things done and moving forward.

943
01:14:24,090 --> 01:14:27,290
With that said, I am pretty much done.

944
01:14:27,290 --> 01:14:37,090
We won't do mayor reports this time or I mean council reports because I kind of gave you head on the most important ones really.

945
01:14:40,260 --> 01:14:44,660
Unless Joe has someone roads, I don't think you have anything. Oh, I got one more thing we need to go ahead.

946
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:47,660
No, I don't, nothing in the work. Sorry.

947
01:14:47,660 --> 01:14:56,040
Okay, we have a few trees. If you guys have noticed, we have a few trees on River Road or

948
01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:59,980
or a Weaver Canyon Road, sorry, that is in...

949
01:15:00,820 --> 01:15:25,040
The county are the county's jurisdiction. We have some dead trees that are leaning towards the road. We've contacted, I had Kindle contact, the county. We have one dead tree that is actually over the road and a stiff one that's going to drop right in the middle of the road. So the

950
01:15:28,270 --> 01:15:33,930
county has refusing to do anything about it. So who's property?

951
01:15:33,930 --> 01:15:40,690
use it on. It's the county's property. It's within the easement. It's on the easement, okay. So I

952
01:15:40,690 --> 01:15:45,250
asked them if I could just do it, pay for it and send it to the bill to them.

953
01:15:47,550 --> 01:15:48,250
You would be

954
01:15:48,250 --> 01:15:51,310
interested in how many ways you can be told no.

955
01:15:54,750 --> 01:15:59,290
So that was fun. But I said how about if we just pay

956
01:15:59,290 --> 01:16:03,050
for it. And I'm worried about those trees falling, somebody

957
01:16:03,050 --> 01:16:06,550
get hurt, especially if it's at night. So it's very minimal cost.

958
01:16:06,650 --> 01:16:11,190
I think it was $2,500. And that tree company's going to come in

959
01:16:11,190 --> 01:16:13,710
and cut the dead ones down for us and get those out of the

960
01:16:13,710 --> 01:16:17,830
road. Just go up the road. You'll see dead ones all. It's only

961
01:16:17,830 --> 01:16:20,390
the north side. And you'll see them underneath the power lines

962
01:16:20,390 --> 01:16:22,750
and stuff. And in fact, you know where the guy does the

963
01:16:22,750 --> 01:16:26,270
mechanic shop kind of these house, right across the streets, the

964
01:16:26,270 --> 01:16:28,630
one that's leaning on the road and has a limb that goes straight

965
01:16:28,630 --> 01:16:35,350
over the road. It's where they covered over the ditch. Exactly. And so now all the trees have died

966
01:16:35,350 --> 01:16:40,650
because they don't have walk. So I think it's wise to do that. It seems like they would at least

967
01:16:40,650 --> 01:16:46,650
split it. It's on their property. I'll fight that battle. They're not negotiating at all. But it seems

968
01:16:46,650 --> 01:16:53,670
like, look, we want to do something. We would be liable. You would be liable. We don't want to be liable,

969
01:16:53,670 --> 01:17:02,770
But it seemed like you'd be a good, a good, you know, team player and let's do this together. Well, what I'm hoping is we'll take care of these and they can take care of the ones up by

970
01:17:04,290 --> 01:17:23,530
Franson Lane. There's more up there. Well, there's some big ones up there. How many would you say are up there, Tom? I don't know. Well, 15 of them maybe and they're big and their band is getting there and they're saying they're big. Yeah, and they're on. They're on their property, but yeah, they want. I just had them give me a bit on it just to see. Good to know. And they're over 10 grand is to do.

971
01:17:23,530 --> 01:17:26,470
those and I'm like, yeah, we're out of the county.

972
01:17:26,630 --> 01:17:28,530
We'll just have to push the county to try and do that.

973
01:17:28,830 --> 01:17:30,330
So yeah, that's something that you're good at.

974
01:17:30,430 --> 01:17:32,030
Do you think it's important to make some memory

975
01:17:32,030 --> 01:17:34,870
if there's negotiations for the irrigation lines to be piped

976
01:17:34,870 --> 01:17:37,250
in the future that it is part of their contract

977
01:17:37,250 --> 01:17:38,150
in the future?

978
01:17:38,350 --> 01:17:38,870
That's a good irrigation.

979
01:17:39,130 --> 01:17:42,790
Yeah, part of the long term maintenance

980
01:17:42,790 --> 01:17:44,750
of those going in the pipe.

981
01:17:45,270 --> 01:17:47,190
Yeah, is that that's taking care of?

982
01:17:47,210 --> 01:17:47,890
No, it's dying.

983
01:17:48,150 --> 01:17:50,370
Well, and I think what you'll notice too

984
01:17:50,370 --> 01:17:51,990
is when you drive up there, it's going to be a lot

985
01:17:51,990 --> 01:17:57,050
pair to your drive. That's a beautiful road to drive up anyway but we have to drive up there and

986
01:17:57,050 --> 01:18:01,770
look at all those dead trees. It does take away from a little bit but so these will be taken out.

987
01:18:01,890 --> 01:18:07,210
They were supposed to work on them yesterday and today but the reason we're getting this so cheap

988
01:18:07,210 --> 01:18:12,430
is they forgotten they had to have flaggers so they have to go back and hire some flaggers to come

989
01:18:12,430 --> 01:18:17,470
up and so they can do it. So anyway they said they would hold their number and they would do that so

990
01:18:17,470 --> 01:18:17,870
Yeah,

991
01:18:21,390 --> 01:18:27,830
exactly. So with that, I don't really have anything else. Do any of you have anything

992
01:18:27,830 --> 01:18:34,070
you want to bring up? And Councilman Dillman, just so you know, I still see you there. And

993
01:18:34,070 --> 01:18:38,350
I haven't let you talk much, but is there anything you would like to discuss tonight or bring

994
01:18:38,350 --> 01:18:41,250
up in your in your little area?

995
01:18:45,310 --> 01:18:48,210
I'm going to take it that you just put on and acted like

996
01:18:48,210 --> 01:18:51,850
you are there and now you're eating dinner with your family I don't know.

997
01:18:54,270 --> 01:18:55,830
Jump on if you ever hear me

998
01:18:55,830 --> 01:19:01,850
or you come on but does anybody else have anything they want to discuss? I just have a couple of things.

999
01:19:03,390 --> 01:19:12,330
First of all I've got the numbers on what we did in the pickleball tournament. The food bank got

1000
01:19:12,330 --> 01:19:21,690
We got cashed on nations and food donations of about $2,000 during the Pickleball Tournament and we made $1482 on top of that.

1001
01:19:22,070 --> 01:19:31,750
So I think that we'll write them a check from the city and it might be nice to advertise that on our social media that we did that for the food bank.

1002
01:19:32,810 --> 01:19:33,770
Is everybody okay with that?

1003
01:19:33,770 --> 01:19:34,270
Yeah, that's awesome.

1004
01:19:35,710 --> 01:19:36,670
So that's good.

1005
01:19:36,890 --> 01:19:38,630
And frankly, next year, if we have this,

1006
01:19:38,810 --> 01:19:41,910
it was a horrible tournament because of the wind and rain.

1007
01:19:42,090 --> 01:19:42,790
It was just unbelievable.

1008
01:19:42,930 --> 01:19:44,530
But we did get it done.

1009
01:19:44,970 --> 01:19:46,310
And next year should be easy.

1010
01:19:46,510 --> 01:19:49,910
And there were a lot of things like expenses

1011
01:19:49,910 --> 01:19:53,410
that won't carry over because I had banners done.

1012
01:19:53,790 --> 01:19:55,330
I think that we can sell yous for next year.

1013
01:19:56,070 --> 01:19:58,190
So we might make more money next year.

1014
01:19:58,690 --> 01:20:00,410
So anyway, that's a good thing.

1015
01:20:00,590 --> 01:20:01,650
Well, let me ask a question.

1016
01:20:01,830 --> 01:20:01,950
Yeah.

1017
01:20:02,310 --> 01:20:06,450
I know I already asked you and told me, but I think it's good for these guys to know how many

1018
01:20:07,850 --> 01:20:15,430
Participants did you have this year? We had about 250 this year. I mean to me, that's pretty impressive

1019
01:20:15,430 --> 01:20:20,330
Yeah, to bring out many people in I think that was so great job, Tom. Thanks. That was a great job

1020
01:20:20,330 --> 01:20:24,890
Thanks, I didn't mean to catch you on but go ahead. No, anyway, that was important

1021
01:20:24,890 --> 01:20:30,490
I see I think going forward. I'm gonna try to get people more involved from the Oakley pickleball tournament

1022
01:20:30,490 --> 01:20:38,890
So when Mr. Smart retires off into the Sunset, we have a good system going to keep that going because it's pretty popular.

1023
01:20:39,350 --> 01:20:39,450
Yeah.

1024
01:20:40,190 --> 01:20:40,890
Anyway, it's great.

1025
01:20:40,890 --> 01:20:42,710
We're never going to retire into the Sunset.

1026
01:20:43,490 --> 01:20:56,690
The Sun Summit Trails Foundation had a meeting with the Mountain Trails Foundation this week and voted to merge and to be absorbed by Mountain Trails Foundation.

1027
01:20:56,690 --> 01:21:03,690
it has not been approved by the Board yet of Mountain Trails Foundation, but I think that there's

1028
01:21:03,690 --> 01:21:13,070
they have, they get a lot of money and they have full-time staff and people who work on trail

1029
01:21:13,070 --> 01:21:17,450
maintenance and things like that and I think that that will end up being a big benefit to us.

1030
01:21:18,170 --> 01:21:23,510
At some point, we're going to have to revisit our memorandum of understanding about who does what

1031
01:21:23,510 --> 01:21:29,110
and everything and that's going to continue on as we go through other trail things. But that's

1032
01:21:29,110 --> 01:21:35,510
something that's kind of big and probably really good that's coming up. I'm meeting with Amy

1033
01:21:35,510 --> 01:21:41,370
and I are meeting with some mapping people who are doing trail maps for this whole area out there

1034
01:21:41,370 --> 01:21:48,450
and trying to do. We'll put the weaver pathway and all the stuff on it and one of the grants that I

1035
01:21:48,450 --> 01:21:55,790
have. We're going to put QR codes on the the signs as you go out that you can just look at and

1036
01:21:55,790 --> 01:22:01,150
the map will come up and we're going to be talking tomorrow with Doug about where we can host

1037
01:22:01,150 --> 01:22:07,570
that. We can probably host it in several places but we can also solicit donations when people go

1038
01:22:07,570 --> 01:22:13,870
do it and stuff like that and use it. So we're going to be working on that tomorrow. We had a bridge

1039
01:22:13,870 --> 01:22:19,690
need to be repaired, which we fixed this week. One of the grants that I have is Jan Manning

1040
01:22:19,690 --> 01:22:25,770
with her fence around her area in that. I'm going to meet with her again, make sure that we have

1041
01:22:25,770 --> 01:22:33,350
exactly what she wants. Talking to Dallas, Dallas feels pretty strongly that we should have the

1042
01:22:33,350 --> 01:22:40,690
gate at the bottom of the, that people still go up and turn around and where all of our stuff is.

1043
01:22:40,690 --> 01:22:44,650
because Jan has her own gate that goes up to her house.

1044
01:22:44,990 --> 01:22:46,590
And I'm just wondering about,

1045
01:22:47,070 --> 01:22:48,710
I haven't talked to her about this yet,

1046
01:22:48,810 --> 01:22:52,330
but it seems like it would be something to work together

1047
01:22:52,330 --> 01:22:54,510
on and maybe put that gate down at the bottom

1048
01:22:54,510 --> 01:22:57,550
so that nobody, she didn't want to go through two gates

1049
01:22:57,550 --> 01:22:58,590
to get to her house.

1050
01:22:59,370 --> 01:23:03,510
But we don't want people going up to our city stuff.

1051
01:23:03,890 --> 01:23:06,230
Well, so everybody's aware we have had that.

1052
01:23:06,230 --> 01:23:15,910
Yeah, we've had some vandalism. They actually went up to one of the, they don't call him hits.

1053
01:23:16,210 --> 01:23:18,190
What are they going around the vault?

1054
01:23:19,130 --> 01:23:25,670
They actually went and took a great off of it and they went down and spray painted.

1055
01:23:26,030 --> 01:23:30,130
It doesn't look like they did anything but they spray painted on the wall kind of like we got in.

1056
01:23:30,130 --> 01:23:43,970
Yeah, so Dallas was pretty conservative that we put some cameras and stuff so I might have some extra money in this rap tax grant that we could do that and rap that in part of the fence.

1057
01:23:45,970 --> 01:23:59,430
But there's a couple of the things that I have to spend that money on but I just wanted to throw it out to you guys because it seems like we should work with Jan and I should talk to her and say what do you feel about bringing this gate down at the bottom.

1058
01:23:59,430 --> 01:24:03,650
Right, and just keeping everybody out there. So I'll be working with her next week. Talk to her

1059
01:24:04,650 --> 01:24:09,570
What does know she says? Okay, I'm looking to get to our water system. That's huge. That's

1060
01:24:10,690 --> 01:24:15,690
Yeah, yeah, the last thing I have is is that the Dawn Weller sculpture

1061
01:24:16,870 --> 01:24:23,550
We've got that 8,000 dollars. I get 4,000 now and 4,000 when it's done. We think it's going to cost about 18,000

1062
01:24:24,010 --> 01:24:26,370
I know that Steve has

1063
01:24:26,370 --> 01:24:32,610
And as raised in money to do a garden and sculpture and everything in the city center,

1064
01:24:32,730 --> 01:24:37,070
but we don't know what the timing is on the city center and all that.

1065
01:24:38,010 --> 01:24:43,830
And of course, everything's been pushed back a little bit just because of Janna passing

1066
01:24:43,830 --> 01:24:44,910
away and things like that.

1067
01:24:45,030 --> 01:24:52,170
But I was talking to Amy right also about it and I'm thinking that because I have to have

1068
01:24:52,170 --> 01:24:57,610
that done by May and because we have money in our budget actually to do the whole thing

1069
01:24:57,610 --> 01:25:04,450
without that I should work with Shad or Steve and have some kind of memorandum of understanding

1070
01:25:04,450 --> 01:25:10,370
that look, Oakley will manage the grants, we'll get the money and we'll pay that extra

1071
01:25:10,370 --> 01:25:18,090
10 grand or whatever it is upfront but then when we do put it in here that they'll pay

1072
01:25:18,090 --> 01:25:25,050
for whatever the money was and in that way if we if that isn't ready to do by May we can figure

1073
01:25:25,050 --> 01:25:31,870
about a place to temporarily put it or something like that but I'm thinking that's going to be

1074
01:25:31,870 --> 01:25:38,010
the best way to deal with it so I can go ahead and get this thing started. Okay that's all I have

1075
01:25:38,530 --> 01:25:45,330
to say. I know things with the city center have kind of been put on a little bit of lights

1076
01:25:45,330 --> 01:25:50,990
was any updates on, on next progression step, so we're out there and but I hope not

1077
01:25:50,990 --> 01:25:55,850
I know, but I know where we are with things. Yeah, and Lisa might be able to better answer

1078
01:25:55,850 --> 01:26:00,590
that question because she was able to speak with legal counsel from them. Just a little

1079
01:26:00,590 --> 01:26:05,370
bit to see their marching orders on the project. So we're on the same page and we're not

1080
01:26:05,370 --> 01:26:09,790
both just sitting back waiting for the other party to do their job. Yeah, so Lisa, were

1081
01:26:09,790 --> 01:26:10,930
Were you able to talk to Michael?

1082
01:26:11,630 --> 01:26:11,990
I was.

1083
01:26:12,230 --> 01:26:14,710
I spoke with their attorney, Michael Hutchings.

1084
01:26:16,230 --> 01:26:21,350
And there's been a little bit of work in his domain, hasn't been done.

1085
01:26:21,990 --> 01:26:27,690
But he's reviewing the original draft development agreement, red lines that I've put to it.

1086
01:26:28,070 --> 01:26:31,510
He's been getting back to them and he's hoping to get to me by the end of the week.

1087
01:26:32,510 --> 01:26:37,150
And Nathan Bracken and I will meet with them and get the ball rolling.

1088
01:26:37,150 --> 01:26:44,410
but it's it's truly been Steve's mis attorneys that have just not really done

1089
01:26:44,410 --> 01:26:49,770
some stuff for a while. Okay thanks for the update. You bet.

1090
01:26:52,550 --> 01:26:55,650
Okay anything else? Any

1091
01:26:55,650 --> 01:27:00,230
questions you want for me that I may not have answered? No but thanks for doing

1092
01:27:00,230 --> 01:27:04,650
everything. You were very thorough. Thanks for the updates. You've taken care of a lot

1093
01:27:04,650 --> 01:27:07,090
I'm gonna step that none of the rest of us wanted to do.

1094
01:27:08,110 --> 01:27:08,870
Guess what?

1095
01:27:09,270 --> 01:27:09,930
Either the night.

1096
01:27:10,550 --> 01:27:14,090
You get the big pie.

1097
01:27:14,090 --> 01:27:14,750
Heavy lane, yes.

1098
01:27:15,010 --> 01:27:15,570
Oh, yeah.

1099
01:27:15,870 --> 01:27:19,190
It happens when you wear that bright orange shirt, buddy.

1100
01:27:19,910 --> 01:27:22,030
This is my pick-up garbage on the side of the road.

1101
01:27:22,210 --> 01:27:26,610
All right, with that being said,

1102
01:27:26,610 --> 01:27:29,070
and if there's no more questions, Joe, you're up.

1103
01:27:29,250 --> 01:27:30,890
I move that we adjourn.

1104
01:27:31,650 --> 01:27:31,970
Second.

1105
01:27:32,950 --> 01:27:33,450
Thank you.

1106
01:27:33,450 --> 01:27:33,950
All right.

1107
01:27:34,130 --> 01:27:34,430
All right.

1108
01:27:34,890 --> 01:27:35,810
Nice to see you, Lisa.

1109
01:27:36,150 --> 01:27:36,530
Thank you.
