am an ardent supporter of the farmers

189
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,959
market. I support everything that they

190
00:16:04,959 --> 00:16:06,560
do and if you asked me to vote on this

191
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,160
issue tonight, I would vote in support

192
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,959
of this issue. I do have a couple of

193
00:16:10,959 --> 00:16:14,000
concerns. Uh, if I'm not mistaken, this

194
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,360
project has morphed from a prefab Dutch

195
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,560
barn that was supposed to go in the

196
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,040
Queen Street parking lot into investing

197
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,000
into a private uh uh piece of property,

198
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,480
which I think is a significant change.

199
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,720
And I I I don't think it has been

200
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,360
publicized enough that this is now an

201
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,600
investment in a private property. Once

202
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,440
again, I would vote for it. I would

203
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,199
agree with it. I just think some of the

204
00:16:37,199 --> 00:16:39,680
town members need more knowledge about

205
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,079
it. I would also say that I I would like

206
00:16:42,079 --> 00:16:43,600
to see if if we're going to invest in

207
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,519
the building, whatever current lease

208
00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:47,360
they have, I'd like to see it extended a

209
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,279
little bit just to, you know, make up

210
00:16:49,279 --> 00:16:50,720
for the investment we're putting in the

211
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,959
building. Other than that, vote for it.

212
00:16:52,959 --> 00:16:56,160
Let's let's support the farmers market.

213
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:00,870
>> Thank you. Any other comments?

214
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:11,829
» Okay, go ahead.

215
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:15,039
Uh, Priscilla Hart, Market Street. Um,

216
00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:16,720
boy, there's a lot of noise going on

217
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,160
over there and there's a lot of work

218
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,039
going on. Um, I too support the winter

219
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:25,600
market. Uh, I also understand that the

220
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,322
grant funds will be Thank you.

221
00:17:29,322 --> 00:17:31,679
[laughter] Should I start again? Uh,

222
00:17:31,679 --> 00:17:33,520
okay. I support the winter market. I

223
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,200
understand the grant funds are going to

224
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:41,919
be um utilized for changes to um the

225
00:17:41,919 --> 00:17:46,400
Fossky's 20 Market Street. And my

226
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,120
question is, what do we do now with the

227
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:52,000
um Queen Street parking lot? There was a

228
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,720
I think it was a 20-year lease or $20

229
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,280
lease or something like that. And do we

230
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,240
make that lease go away?

231
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,760
that might be something we should

232
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,919
consider because the farmers market's

233
00:18:05,919 --> 00:18:08,000
not going to use that anymore. Why tie

234
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,960
that up? So, I wish the winter market

235
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,480
good luck. Thanks.

236
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,919
>> Okay. Thank you. Any other comments?

237
00:18:15,919 --> 00:18:17,200
Okay. I'm going to close this public

238
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,880
hearing. Uh I I think that lease is is

239
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,039
null and void. Am I Yeah. for the for

240
00:18:23,039 --> 00:18:26,080
the Queen Street, right?

241
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,039
>> Not sure. But but uh since the market's

242
00:18:29,039 --> 00:18:30,080
no longer going to be there, I would

243
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:30,720
assume so.

244
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,240
>> Right. Yeah. Right. Was it ever

245
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:33,200
executed?

246
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,520
>> I think it was. Yes. Did we have

247
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,280
>> Yes, it was. So, I guess we do need to

248
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,240
>> We're going to do some paperwork.

249
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,600
>> Yeah, we do some paperwork on that.

250
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,880
Yeah. Yeah. Um I I I uh Well, yeah.

251
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,440
Excuse me. One comment. I need to make

252
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,280
Excuse myself. We're not going to vote

253
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:48,400
on this anyway down. It's going to be a

254
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:49,840
tie, but I'm I have an interest in this,

255
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,600
so I'm I'm not going to comment on this

256
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,360
or have anything to do with the vote.

257
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:54,640
Okay. Uh do we have a representative

258
00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:01,430
from the farmers market?

259
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,400
Yeah.

260
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,760
>> Okay. Right. Okay. And and VDAX approved

261
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,000
the this whole process correctly. We we

262
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,360
the town has really nothing to do with

263
00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:15,120
the plan. They approved the the new new design and everything. Yeah.

264
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:16,799
>> Yeah. between VDAX approving the fact

265
00:19:16,799 --> 00:19:18,480
that it's going into private property

266
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,720
and the the Odancock Farmers Market

267
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,320
board has also sat down with the

268
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,240
property owners at length to discuss

269
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,960
what our lease looks like with them for

270
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:28,720
the future so that the space is being

271
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,720
utilized as we are intending it to be

272
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,760
utilized with the grant funds.

273
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,840
>> Any other comments?

274
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,640
Do we have a motion here?

275
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,400

00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,440
the unfinished work. The project has

300
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,080
been expected to close, but uh grant

301
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:39,440
records show funds remain available and work still needs to be completed.

302
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,840
So, no additional local funding is

303
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,520

304
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,240

[snorts] question. Um Wes, I was just

curious, is this a reimbursement

332
00:21:59,919 --> 00:22:01,760

>> Wait. Okay.

344
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,320
>> It's pretty quick. only reason I was

345

asking because DH DHCD also houses Main

346
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,280

368
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,640

for property and and the improvements to

371
00:23:25,120 --> 00:23:31,679
HRSD. So the required public hearing on disposal of the property has already

372
00:23:31,679 --> 00:23:34,400
been held. So tonight's action is to

373
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,960
authorize the ample conveyance of it.

374
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,120
>> Uh this is the South Street pump station

00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:40,640
u on the south kind of on the creek on

376
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,480
the central branch. It's it's we we've always owned it. Uh it's it's a

377
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:45,919
little brick building back there and if

378
00:23:45,919 --> 00:23:47,280
you've seen it when you go across the A

379
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,360
Street Bridge. All right. Do we have a

380
00:23:49,360 --> 00:23:52,390
motion

381
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:53,679

382
00:23:53,679 --> 00:23:57,039
>> No, just say it. Accept it, please. Just

383
00:23:57,039 --> 00:23:59,440

by the town of Anancock at parcel

388
00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:14,549
085A10000004700.

389
00:24:14,559 --> 00:24:16,640
Um, the town of Ankcock's pump station

390
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,799
lot located off South Street in Anco,

391
00:24:18,799 --> 00:24:20,720
Virginia, Akamat County by conveyance to

392
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,799
the Hampton Road sanitation district.

393
00:24:22,799 --> 00:24:24,400
>> Uh, second.

394
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,440
>> Second

395
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:26,480
>> discussion.

396
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,520
>> Yes. I have a question.

397
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,159
In the resolution in the the second

398
00:24:32,159 --> 00:24:35,679
whereas it says that HRSD is willing to

399
00:24:35,679 --> 00:24:37,679
accept the property for the town subject

400
00:24:37,679 --> 00:24:45,909
to certain terms. What's that mean?

401
00:24:45,919 --> 00:24:48,720
» Um that is the question. I'm I'm not

402
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,120
sure what those certain terms are. I

403
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:53,840
believe that that those would be the

404
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:58,080
terms laid out in the omnibus

405
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,880
>> which is could you explain that?

406
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,720
>> Yeah. Um so I would need to uh talk with

407
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:09,200
the um with council of HRSD to

408
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,559
understand what those terms are

409
00:25:10,559 --> 00:25:14,159
specifically. So I'm not aware what

410
00:25:14,159 --> 00:25:16,640
those are at this time.

411
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,960
>> We have the with us somewhere, don't we?

412
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,799
>> Well, we've already agreed agreed to it.

413
00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:23,039
Yeah,

414
00:25:23,039 --> 00:25:24,000
>> we already approved it.

415
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,080
>> We've already approved it. Yeah. Yeah.

416
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:26,559
>> Scary, isn't it?

417
00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:29,279
>> Yeah. Yeah. Um, okay. Are we any other

418
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:32,000
discussion on this? Uh, all in favor?

419
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,039
>> I

420
00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:34,960
>> actually, we need a roll call. Go over

421
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,039
disposing of property here. Let's have a

422
00:25:37,039 --> 00:25:39,120
roll call. It has to be I think it's got

423
00:25:39,120 --> 00:25:41,120
to be four fist, doesn't it? Yeah. Yeah.

424
00:25:41,120 --> 00:25:42,320
Three.

425
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:47,029
>> Imber.

426
00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:48,240
Hi,

427
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,919
>> Council Member Knox.

428
00:25:49,919 --> 00:25:51,279
>> Hi, Council

429
00:25:51,279 --> 00:25:52,320

430
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,559

431
00:25:54,559 --> 00:25:55,840

>> Oh, thank you. All right.

433
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,039
Okay. Planning Commission report. Cindy.

434
00:26:01,039 --> 00:26:03,120
>> Uh, the planning commission continues to

435
00:26:03,120 --> 00:26:05,360
work on the comprehensive plan. We're

436
00:26:05,360 --> 00:26:07,360
drafting our sections and working on

437
00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:09,679
them. Um, and really that's what we

438
00:26:09,679 --> 00:26:11,840
spend our entire meeting talking about.

439
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,440
So, it's a not a brief meeting, but a

440
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,840
brief report for me. We expect to have a

441
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:22,149
draft ready in December.

442
00:26:22,159 --> 00:26:24,320
» Any questions?

443
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,960
>> Next meeting. Just could you just let

444
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,679
people know again where you meet?

445
00:26:29,679 --> 00:26:31,760
>> There you go. And we did meet twice in

446
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,520
August. I don't have the dates with me,

447
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,919
but we had a work session in addition to

448
00:26:35,919 --> 00:26:38,080
our regular meeting.

449
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,679
All right.

450
00:26:39,679 --> 00:26:42,240
Okay. the uh community reports uh

451
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,000
economic development authority an

452
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,039
>> hey uh the authority had a productive

453
00:26:49,039 --> 00:26:52,880
meeting last week on the

454
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,240
18th and uh we're continuing to work

455
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,240
toward our goals for the for the rest of

456
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,600
this year. I talked about that a little

457
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,559
bit last month. We're exploring options

458
00:27:02,559 --> 00:27:04,640
for additional revenue streams. We'd

459
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,559
like to find more money that we would be

460
00:27:06,559 --> 00:27:08,960
able to reinvest in the town. Uh we're

461
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,360
looking at other economic development

462
00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:14,000
authorities and related organizations to

463
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,679
identify best practices and model

464
00:27:15,679 --> 00:27:18,159
projects. We'd like to find similarly

465
00:27:18,159 --> 00:27:20,480
situated small towns, see where they

466
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,960
have had success and and what we can

467
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,520
learn from them. Uh we're working on the

468
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,360
parameters for the revolving loan fund

469
00:27:27,360 --> 00:27:29,919
program. I think everybody pretty much

470
00:27:29,919 --> 00:27:33,360
knows what that is, but we got a grant

471
00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:35,120
to develop we loaned money to develop

472
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:37,760
the Little Building. As those payments

473
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,880
are remade are made each month, those

474
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,440
funds will go into a revolving loan fund

475
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,159
that we will then reinvest in the town.

476
00:27:46,159 --> 00:27:49,200
So, we're sort of waiting to accumulate

477
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,039
a sufficient amount of money to be able

478
00:27:51,039 --> 00:27:53,600
to invest it reinvest it in an impactful

479
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,679
way. So, we're working on the parameters

480
00:27:55,679 --> 00:27:58,559
of what what that will look like. Um, we

481
00:27:58,559 --> 00:28:01,360
also voted to change our meeting time to

482
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:04,320
5:30 p.m. and I think everything's been

483
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,399
updated. So our meetings now will be the

484
00:28:06,399 --> 00:28:10,000
third Tuesday of each month from 5:30

485
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,240
uh to 7. Uh we also last week hosted

486
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,480
freedom of information freedom of

487
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,039
information act training for local

488
00:28:19,039 --> 00:28:23,120
officials uh in this room. Last week uh

489
00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:25,919
by Virginia statute people local

490
00:28:25,919 --> 00:28:28,159
officials on certain public bodies

491
00:28:28,159 --> 00:28:31,120
including the council and and the EDA

492
00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:32,960
are required to take this training

493
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,000
periodically. And so uh so we held it

494
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,480
here. We had uh guests from Parksley and

495
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,279
Eastville. I think almost the entire

496
00:28:43,279 --> 00:28:46,080
government of both those towns and a few

497
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,760
other people came and the train training

498
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,159
was conducted by the executive director

499
00:28:50,159 --> 00:28:53,120
and deputy director of the Virginia

500
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,200
Municipal League.

501
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,360
And our next meeting is September 15th

502
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,000
in this room at 5:30.

503
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,520
>> Uh any questions from council for?

504
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,440
Okay, thank you very much and thank you

505
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,000
for doing the uh Hoya training. That was

506
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,840
those were good. Yeah,

507
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,200
>> you never think people would be so

508
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:11,919
excited about it.

509
00:29:11,919 --> 00:29:13,440
>> I know. It's always it's always an

510
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:14,799
interesting subject. It's kind of

511
00:29:14,799 --> 00:29:16,799
fascinating. All right. Historic and

512
00:29:16,799 --> 00:29:19,200
Hancock school. Sarah,

513
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,240
>> thank you. The school was honored to

514
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,559
partner with the Samuel Outlaw

515
00:29:24,559 --> 00:29:26,960
Blacksmith Shop and Memorial Museum this

516
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:31,440
past Saturday. there was to be a 5K race

517
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,000
as the kickoff to that and the weather

518
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,399
took care of that one. So, that's

519
00:29:36,399 --> 00:29:38,640
something we'll try for again in the

520
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,720
future. But, it was still nice to be

521
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,640
able to

522
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,919
help um publicize it and to work

523
00:29:45,919 --> 00:29:48,880
together with a fellow Nancock nonprofit

524
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:53,679
also in a townowned building. Um, next

525
00:29:53,679 --> 00:29:57,279
event coming up is the Deloreans who

526
00:29:57,279 --> 00:29:59,520
will be playing at the pavilion on

527
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,120
Friday from 6:00 to 9:00. The concerts

528
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,760
is free. Donations are welcome and there

529
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,520
will be two food trucks um or go to the

530
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,880
restaurants in person before the show.

531
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,840
The next night, Saturday the 29th, with

532
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:20,640
a rain date of the Saturday after the um

533
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,200
annual movie under the stars will happen

534
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,320
at the pavilion. It will be the sand lot

535
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,640
and popcorn.

536
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:32,880
And the start time is a little bit

537
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,120
uncertain. It depends on when it gets

538
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,080
dark enough to start projecting a movie

539
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,880
onto the screen, but we are aiming for

540
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,120
somewhere around 7:30 is the start time

541
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,399
of the movie. Um, the biggest news, fire

542
00:30:46,399 --> 00:30:48,960
restoration work is still ongoing. The

543
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,320
upper level is almost complete and some

544
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,480
of the tenants have be been able to

545
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,679
begin moving belongings back in, but

546
00:30:57,679 --> 00:31:02,640
it's not open for the public. the none

547
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,960
of the building as I understand it now

548
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,360
will be open to the public until the

549
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,520
whole building is open to the public. So

550
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,120
it's just a matter of getting people

551
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,080

00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,919

>> Okay.

00:31:26,799 --> 00:31:27,600
>> We don't know.

558
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:28,880
So,

559
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:29,840

564
00:31:35,279 --> 00:31:36,640
>> that's up to the building code.

565
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:37,840
>> It's Yeah,

566
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,559
>> it's a work in progress still and

567
00:31:40,559 --> 00:31:43,039
happily there is progress.

568
00:31:43,039 --> 00:31:44,960
>> Great. All right. Any other comments for

569
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,799
about the school? Okay.

570
00:31:48,799 --> 00:31:51,200
>> All right. Lancock Main Street.

571
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,159
>> Okay. um through our VTC grant that we

572
00:31:54,159 --> 00:31:56,159
just got um from the state, we were able

573
00:31:56,159 --> 00:31:58,640
to bring in um an influencer named

574
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,640
Hunter Holbert. Um he's a content

575
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,200
creator and travel journalist. Uh he was

576
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,760
hired through our grant and um we are

577
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,240
part of his new series called Places to

578
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,120
Find Peace. Uh he filmed July 23rd

579
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:12,559
through the 25th and shared content

580
00:32:12,559 --> 00:32:14,799
across Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok, and

581
00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:18,640
YouTube. uh with over 216,000 Instagram

582
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,320
followers, one post has already reached

583
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,200
79,000 views. So, three of them were

584
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,039
done in coordination with Main Street. I

585
00:32:25,039 --> 00:32:26,720
know he's done another one that I have

586
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,480
also seen, but that was not done in

587
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,880
coordination with us, which was a little

588
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,880
bit more loose in some of the way that

589
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,440
he spoke, but but it was still a fun

590
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,039
little piece, I thought. So, hopefully

591
00:32:37,039 --> 00:32:39,120
you guys have had a chance to see it.

592
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,039
Um, we've also been in the media

593
00:32:41,039 --> 00:32:43,840
recently. Um, we've pitched uh media uh

594
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,559
stories and secured two TV spots, one

595
00:32:46,559 --> 00:32:50,320
with WTKR and one with WBOC. The links

596
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,480
are available on our Facebook page. And

597
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:53,760
actually, town council will be sending

598
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,760
out an email tomorrow with all that

599
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:56,960
information, so you can just click the

600
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,640
links and whatnot and and check it all

601
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,120
out from there. Um, open for business,

602
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,559
which is one of our initiatives that

603
00:33:02,559 --> 00:33:05,039
we've started, um, continues to gain

604
00:33:05,039 --> 00:33:07,279
momentum with over 3,000 views on our

605
00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:09,600
commercial property and yonanccock pages

606
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,000
atexperience onanccock.com.

607
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,399
Um, and this campaign just started. We

608
00:33:14,399 --> 00:33:17,039
just started advertising for it. Um,

609
00:33:17,039 --> 00:33:20,080
with more coming out as we go. Um, the

610
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,320
site helps prospect prospective business

611
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,240
owners find available properties and

612
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,919
resources for starting a business in

613
00:33:25,919 --> 00:33:29,600
Onanco. Um, we are also happy to

614
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,360
announce that we have been working on

615
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:32,799
coordinating a restaurant week in

616
00:33:32,799 --> 00:33:35,679

00:33:35,679 --> 00:33:37,440

618
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,080

menus. Uh we hope to have the event we

623
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,559
hope the event also encourages visitors

624
00:33:52,559 --> 00:33:55,039
to stop to shop, see a show, and spend

625
00:33:55,039 --> 00:33:57,279
some time in Ankco. Uh we're very

626
00:33:57,279 --> 00:33:58,720
excited about restaurant week rink. The

627
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,080
business the restaurants have been

628
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,559
jumping for joy. Um right now we have a

00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,880
nine. So be on the lookout for that.

645
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:44,560

653
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,480

00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:46,240

674
00:35:46,240 --> 00:35:49,040
>> Thank you. Thanks.

675
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,640
>> Oh,

676
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:50,960
>> yes.

677
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,200
>> It's not so much a question, but a but a

678
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,920
comment. And we can certainly talk about

679
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,760
this at OBCA, but I think I think as we

680
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:04,960
continue to um strengthen and evolve our

681
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,560
relationships between with

682
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,119
organizations, especially on the parades

683
00:36:09,119 --> 00:36:10,960
and things like that. I think it's

684
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,680
important that we have clarity. Like I

685
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,160
know last year or in the spring for the

686
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,680
St. Patrick's Day parade, the town was

687
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,079
kind of a co-sponsor, but we didn't it

688
00:36:22,079 --> 00:36:24,640
wasn't really branded as a co-event. And

689
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,640
it's not it's not about getting credit.

690
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,480
I'm not concerned about that, but I

691
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,079
think it's important for purposes of

692
00:36:30,079 --> 00:36:33,680
safety, insurance, things like that. We

693
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,400
really need to know who's doing what and

694
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,400
where the responsibilities lie in the

695
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,359
event something were to go a miss or

696
00:36:41,359 --> 00:36:42,640
what have you. Those kinds of things.

697
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,480
>> Agreed. And in fact, Wes and I have met

698
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:45,760
well, we've met once. We've talked a

699
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,520
couple of times. We'll keep meeting to

700
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:48,720
make sure that we're on board with the

701
00:36:48,720 --> 00:36:54,960
town. Um it's really important to me to manage and um all these uh all these

702
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:56,640
partnerships to the best we can.

703
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,079
Everybody I'm talking to is excited

704
00:36:58,079 --> 00:36:59,920
about it, but we also we always have to

705
00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:02,400
be safe. We always have to be aware of

706
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:03,920
uh of what's in the best interest of the

707
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,880
public and our citizens and our visitors

708
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,040
and our businesses. So, thank you for

709
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,839
that. There is so I'm the new president

710
00:37:11,839 --> 00:37:13,839
of the organization and the folks that

711
00:37:13,839 --> 00:37:15,359
have been doing a lot of the work for

712
00:37:15,359 --> 00:37:16,880
the last several years including the

713
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,920
Burnhams Kafk

714
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,520
uh don't live here in the in the winter

715
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,119
necessarily. So, there is so much

716
00:37:23,119 --> 00:37:24,480
administrative work that I'm just trying

717
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,680
to get my uh my my head around. Uh and

718
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,359
we don't have a paid employee of course.

719
00:37:29,359 --> 00:37:31,440
So, we're going to get there and I'm I'm

720
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,119
enjoying the job and thanks for your

721
00:37:33,119 --> 00:37:34,079
support.

722
00:37:34,079 --> 00:37:34,960
>> See y'all later.

723
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,000
>> Thank you very much, John.

724
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,920
>> One other comment on the Christmas

00:37:41,359 --> 00:37:43,440

00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:52,160
>> 2 to 4. Okay. Thank you.

730
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,280
>> All right. Uh it's now time for public

731
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,920
comment. Uh Mr. Deainy, I think you're

732
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:15,750
number one.

733
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,560
Good afternoon. Joe Deainy, Six Queen.

734
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,800
Um very briefly, uh there is a deadline

735
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,520
coming up for applications for storm

736
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:30,160
water grants that is October 1. So if

737
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,400
Oncock is interested in making an

738
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,160
application,

739
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,760
there's over $43 million in that fund.

740
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,800
Uh that may help in the longer term

741
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,920
project. Um, it covers quite a bit of

742
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,920
activity related to storm water

743
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,800
management and emphasizes the use of

744
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,359
best management practices. So, it's all

745
00:38:51,359 --> 00:38:52,960
in the note. I don't have much more to

746
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,040
say than that. Okay. Thank you, mayor.

747
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:55,520
>> Thank you.

748
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,359
Yeah, I I got a notice about

749
00:38:57,359 --> 00:38:59,040
that. I did forward it to Wes a couple

750
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,960
weeks ago. Yeah. Or I mean month several

751
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,680
months ago, actually. Yeah. Yeah. All

752
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,800
right. Uh, uh, Bark, are you want to

753
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:16,790
come up? Yeah, you're up again.

754
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:18,720
Good evening again. Mark Sinclair,

755
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:21,599
Greenway Circle, still just outside of

756
00:39:21,599 --> 00:39:23,280
town.

757
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,359
While driving down Market Street, I

758
00:39:25,359 --> 00:39:27,200
noticed a historic cemetery sign

759
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,079
opposite Coke's Berry Church was gone. I

760
00:39:30,079 --> 00:39:31,920
remember a while ago because somebody

761
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,599
put up a close sign on it. Didn't know

762
00:39:33,599 --> 00:39:35,839
how you can close a cemetery, but okay.

763
00:39:35,839 --> 00:39:38,320
But now the sign is gone and I'm hoping

764
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:39,839
that somebody will look into it and

765
00:39:39,839 --> 00:39:41,680
bring that sign back. I think it's an

766
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,720
important marker in this town. Also,

767
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:47,119
while driving down Market Street, I saw

768
00:39:47,119 --> 00:39:50,240
a loose gravel sign. I had to laugh.

769
00:39:50,240 --> 00:39:51,760
Johnny Mo has been complaining about

770
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,720
that issue down there for years. So, I

771
00:39:54,720 --> 00:39:56,240
found it very ironic when all of a

772
00:39:56,240 --> 00:39:59,359
sudden a gravel sign went up down there.

773
00:39:59,359 --> 00:40:01,520
Also, while driving down Market Street,

774
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,440
I admired the work of the public works

775
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,440
department painting the curbs. I look

776
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,119
forward to seeing that project completed

777
00:40:07,119 --> 00:40:11,082
when time and weather allow.

778
00:40:11,082 --> 00:40:12,000
[snorts]

779
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,520
I was driving down Market Street and

780
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:14,960
looked at the farmers market, but I've

781
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,160
already talked to you about that one.

782
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,400
So, let's pass that one by and let's go

783
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,800
on to the planning commission meeting. I

784
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,320
know you'll be surprised to hear that I

785
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,760
watched the last planning commission

786
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,240
meeting. Councelor Holddron raised a

787
00:40:26,240 --> 00:40:29,040
number of valid concerns. After some

788
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,200
discussion, Commissioner Greer said the

789
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,240
town council should decide. I would say

790
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:35,839
she heard pretty clearly from a

791
00:40:35,839 --> 00:40:37,920
respected member of this council that

792
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,680
she had concerns with the commission's

793
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,000
directions. She had voiced those

794
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,240
concerns before.

795
00:40:44,240 --> 00:40:45,920
At the last town council meeting,

796
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,839
Commissioner Greer gave a very broad

797
00:40:47,839 --> 00:40:51,520
overview with very little detail. In

798
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,440
fact, she asked for another meeting just

799
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,040
so she could fill in some of those

800
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,280
details.

801
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,040
The planning commission is comprised of

802
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,760
a group of very busy, very dedicated,

803
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,880
hard-working people. If the plan that's

804
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,520
going to take over a year of their work

805
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,839
is flawed and could summarily be

806
00:41:09,839 --> 00:41:12,800
rejected by this council, shouldn't each

807
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,280
of you be more informed as to the

808
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,200
direction of the planning commission and

809
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:18,720
the work they're doing at the present

810
00:41:18,720 --> 00:41:21,680
time? This will be the third

811
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,640
comprehensive plan for this little town.

812
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,640
Each plan has been significantly

813
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,960
different from the previous one. Aren't

814
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,839
these supposed to be longterm

815
00:41:31,839 --> 00:41:34,319
comprehensive plans?

816
00:41:34,319 --> 00:41:36,000
The planning commission is currently

817
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,640
sitting on two major issues as they

818
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,520
develop the new comprehensive plan,

819
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,599
zoning for developers and water

820
00:41:43,599 --> 00:41:46,560
regulations. I believe those two issues

821
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:48,960
are far more important than a complete

822
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,359
rewrite of the comprehensive plan. Thank

823
00:41:51,359 --> 00:41:53,440
you for your time.

824
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:54,800
Thank you.

825
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,400
>> One more comment and it has to do with

826
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,880
what Jay was saying uh in regards to

827
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,000
runoff. I am just stunned at what I've

828
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:03,680
seen by the storm that we had this

829
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:05,760
weekend. If you look at the runoff and

830
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,400
the silting that occurred all over this

831
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,040
town, I worry about our harbor and I

832
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,040
just want to reemphasize that we did

833
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,599
talk about dredging, you know, down by

834
00:42:15,599 --> 00:42:17,280
the docks and I'd like to reemphasize

835
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:18,800
that point after we've had a lot of

836
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:23,040
runoff this weekend. Thank you.

837
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:37,270
Uh, Priscilla.

838
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:40,160
Good evening again, Priscilla Hart, U

839
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,800
Market Street.

840
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:46,160
Um, first thing I want to say is the

841
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,920
Wararf area is looking great. It really

842
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,000
is. It's looking great and

843
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,880
congratulations for selling ice. I think

844
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,400
that's a great idea. Um, and also the

845
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,040
benches look very nice. So, it's a real

846
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:05,280
improvement. Um, my next question is a

847
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,880
quick one. Um, and this is directed at

848
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,920
the school. Uh, do we have a certificate

849
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,000
of occupancy?

850
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:14,400
>> No.

851
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:15,760
>> Can't move in without one.

852
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:16,640
>> No.

853
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,680
>> Okay. Thank you. And the third thing I

854
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,400
wanted to talk about, I sent everyone a

855
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:24,560
email today, not everyone, the town

856
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:28,960
council in Wes an email today about our

857
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:34,720
town park that used to be a showplace.

858
00:43:34,720 --> 00:43:38,240
It was gorgeous. This was our town

859
00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:41,920
square with the gazebo, the flowers two

860
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:46,550
years ago.

861
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,599
More recently, this morning, I took some

862
00:43:49,599 --> 00:43:52,480
pictures. I don't have them here, but

863
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:56,400
that town park is an eyesore.

864
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,880
It looks really bad.

865
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,480
Um, the grass looks terrible. There are

866
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,680
no plants around the gazebo.

867
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:10,000
I know that we spent some money on um an

868
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:11,839
irrigation system. I don't know if it

869
00:44:11,839 --> 00:44:13,520
works. Does it work?

870
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:13,920
>> Yes.

871
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,200
>> Okay. Um, that's nice.

872
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,000
But in two years,

873
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,560
we couldn't improve the way this place

874
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,319
looks.

875
00:44:24,319 --> 00:44:27,680
I really would love to see us focus on

876
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,640
making this park as beautiful as it used

877
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,440
to be. Fall is probably a good time to

878
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,800
put some plants in. It would be really

879
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,599
nice. It was an absolute showplace. And

880
00:44:39,599 --> 00:44:40,800
there's really nothing wrong with the

881
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:42,240
benches that are there. I mean, they're

882
00:44:42,240 --> 00:44:45,200
okay. their wood benches. We need some

883
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,960
plants around this place. Thank you.

884
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,680
>> Thank you,

885
00:44:51,680 --> 00:45:05,190
Jay. Miller,

886
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,319
» Jay Miller, 79 Market Street. I need

887
00:45:08,319 --> 00:45:12,870
some glasses here.

888
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,480
So, I'm sitting here listening to the U

889
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,800
town council meeting, and here's what I

890
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:22,240
expected to hear. I expected to hear an

891
00:45:22,240 --> 00:45:24,560
emergency motion from the town council

892
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,160
to our town manager saying, "Do whatever

893
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,520
is poss um make all possible uh uh

894
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:35,280
efforts to do something about uh uh

895
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,760
starting a project to do something about

896
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,160
the flooding in town. Now, it's already

897
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:41,920
been mentioned. The fact that we're

898
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,839
sitting here and that's all that's been

899
00:45:43,839 --> 00:45:45,839
mentioned. The fact that the mayor said

900
00:45:45,839 --> 00:45:48,480
that there's rants money available for

901
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,119
this kind of thing months ago.

902
00:45:51,119 --> 00:45:54,319
All our priorities, I think, are skewed.

903
00:45:54,319 --> 00:45:57,680
They're skewed here. And the the town

904
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,839
owns a a a easement on my property. It

905
00:46:01,839 --> 00:46:04,800
uh goes under my driveway and it's a a

906
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,839
large pipe that goes into the uh storm

907
00:46:07,839 --> 00:46:10,800
system that VOTE has. Behind that is a

908
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,280
multiple drainage ditches that go all

909
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,079
the way back past the rescue house on

910
00:46:16,079 --> 00:46:19,599
Lee Street all and to Carr Street and

911
00:46:19,599 --> 00:46:22,079
probably beyond. And when it rains,

912
00:46:22,079 --> 00:46:23,920
there's a torrent of water that comes

913
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,240
down that those ditches and it

914
00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:28,079
overwhelms it doesn't take much. it

915
00:46:28,079 --> 00:46:30,640
overwhelms that pipe that's in my

916
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,839
driveway and then every property behind

917
00:46:33,839 --> 00:46:36,640
there starts when it backs up it starts

918
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,359
flooding. Now, this has been going on

919
00:46:39,359 --> 00:46:42,800
for 25 years and and I believe the town

920
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,720
owes it to us instead of um in instead

921
00:46:46,720 --> 00:46:50,000
of priorities that I would think are not

922
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:54,000
that that that uh that expansive

923
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,800
and I think I think they the u the town

924
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,640
owes it to us in order to do that. If

925
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,800
there's money available, if if if

926
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,280
there's no money available now, then I

927
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,280
think that whatever shenanigans you can

928
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,920
play, whatever details that you can do

929
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:12,480
to try to move money around and

930
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,319
in order to try to start paying for an

931
00:47:14,319 --> 00:47:17,200
emer some sort of engineering study and

932
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,440
you can't leave it to board rag camp

933
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,000
temple, you can't be the lone wolf on

934
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:23,680
the planning commission trying to do all

935
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,319
this himself. Now, I I understand that

936
00:47:26,319 --> 00:47:27,839
you you want to beautify the town.

937
00:47:27,839 --> 00:47:29,359
You're spending the money on that.

938
00:47:29,359 --> 00:47:31,200
You're getting you're getting

939
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,200
butterflies in the windows and you're

940
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,560
getting uh farmers market money spent.

941
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,640
And we're trying to lure uh uh you're

942
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,119
trying to lure tourists to an egg to

943
00:47:41,119 --> 00:47:44,160
spend the money. And that's that's fine.

944
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,400
You can you can do that, but you're not

945
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:49,599
going to get too many tourists coming to

946
00:47:49,599 --> 00:47:54,000
town if the town is underwater.

947
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,680
>> Thank you. Any other public comment?

948
00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,920
Okay. Thank you.

949
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:02,400
All right. Uh,

950
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,280
mayor's report. Uh, got one announcement

951
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,920
here. We have we're having a blood drive

952
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,200
on September can't read that. September

953
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:13,599
22nd. That's still a ways off, but u

954
00:48:13,599 --> 00:48:16,160
10:00 to 3 p.m. here. Anybody wants to

give blood uh please come.

956
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:25,520
Okay. Uh re uh an announcement. The VML

957
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,800
meeting is coming up in October. Uh I

958
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:29,839
think three of us are going to go to

959
00:48:29,839 --> 00:48:31,920
that meeting in Norfol. Uh just wanted

960
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,559
to announce that uh anytime three of us

961
00:48:34,559 --> 00:48:35,760
are going to go to a meeting that there

962
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,640
will be BML there will be at a BML

963
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:39,920
meeting. I'll probably put that on a

964
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,599
website to announce that for foyer

965
00:48:41,599 --> 00:48:43,520
regulations that uh that three of us

966
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:44,559
will be at that meeting which is

967
00:48:44,559 --> 00:48:47,440
considered more than than two. So I'll

968
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,480
announce it again. Uh uh I attended the

969
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,240
Sam I don't know if some of us attended

970
00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:55,200
the Samuel Outlaw uh lunchbox thing that

971
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:56,800
was really great. I don't know if you if

972
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,040
you guys all went. It was quite a the

973
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,520
dancers and the music was incredible. Uh

974
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:02,960
it turned out to be a really gorgeous

975
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,960
day up there. They had a blacksmith

976
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:07,680
doing demonstrations. Uh it was just a

977
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,760
wonderful turnout. I appre anybody that

978
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:11,280
came.

979
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:14,000
All right. Um

980
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,800
uh I Priscilla was talking about the

981
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,119
town square. I think we do have a plan

982
00:49:19,119 --> 00:49:21,440
to, you know, uh, phase two. The first

983
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,680
phase of that plan was to install the

984
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,240
lights, irrigation, which meant digging

985
00:49:26,240 --> 00:49:28,480
up quite a bit of the park. Uh, and

986
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,319
that's basically just completed in the

987
00:49:30,319 --> 00:49:32,319
spring. Uh, the fall is a good time to

988
00:49:32,319 --> 00:49:35,200
plant. Uh, I wanted we do have a plan.

989
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,119
Uh, we probably can't implement all of

990
00:49:37,119 --> 00:49:38,880
it. I think part of it included making a

991
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:40,800
gazebo type structure in the front of

992
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,559
it, but I certainly think we can do some

993
00:49:42,559 --> 00:49:44,720
kind of planting. So, we need to get

994
00:49:44,720 --> 00:49:47,119
back with the PL the tree board and and

995
00:49:47,119 --> 00:49:49,119
implement that plan at least get some

996
00:49:49,119 --> 00:49:52,160
things planted. Uh we we have a design

997
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,240
uh and we will get the council I think

998
00:49:54,240 --> 00:49:55,760
has already approved some of the design.

999
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,880
So, I we're not u ignoring that, but we

1000
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:00,400
really couldn't do anything until the

1001
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:02,640
grass would settle in. And I don't know

1002
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:03,839
what's going on with the grass right

1003
00:50:03,839 --> 00:50:05,359
now. It does look a little weird. I

1004
00:50:05,359 --> 00:50:06,880
don't some weeds. We need to get

1005
00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:08,880
somebody to do something uh with the

1006
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,040
grass. I know the water system works

1007
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:12,640
fine. The lighting works great. So,

1008
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:13,760
we're good.

1009
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,760
All right. All right. Uh, okay. That's

1010
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,720
all I have. Um, staff report, town

1011
00:50:20,720 --> 00:50:23,520
manager report.

1012
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,400
>> Thank you. So, so my report is available

1013
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,040
in your package. I would like to

1014
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,599
highlight a few of the items that are

1015
00:50:31,599 --> 00:50:34,880
most significant this month. So, our

1016
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,119
financial records have been submitted to

1017
00:50:37,119 --> 00:50:40,240
the auditor with completion currently

1018
00:50:40,240 --> 00:50:43,280
estimated for November or December

1019
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:44,960
public works recently completed the

1020
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,680
long-standing car street water leak

1021
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,800
repair and and then after summer work

1022
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,400
winds down um the department will be

1023
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:55,920
putting

1024
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,800
more time toward a drainage ditch for

1025
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,720
bears. Uh the new remote read water

1026
00:51:02,720 --> 00:51:06,960
meter um installation is complete and is now in the final follow-up phase

1027
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:11,200
with the contractor returning as needed

1028
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,480
for corrections on the larger pro uh on

1029
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,359
the larger projects. The the HRSC

1030
00:51:17,359 --> 00:51:19,520
wastewater transfer continues to move

1031
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,839
forward with the remaining property and

1032
00:51:21,839 --> 00:51:25,359
related implementation work underway. Um

1033
00:51:25,359 --> 00:51:27,839
at HOS the restoration work and separate

1034
00:51:27,839 --> 00:51:32,160
HVAC project uh continue to be um

1035
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,559
primary areas of focus with the HVAC

1036
00:51:34,559 --> 00:51:36,640
project being further developed before

1037
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,599
it can go out to bid. We are also

1038
00:51:39,599 --> 00:51:41,200
continuing work on the remaining

1039
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,760
northeast CDBG improvements. The next

1040
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,319
phase of the blacksmith shop restoration

1041
00:51:46,319 --> 00:51:50,319
is out for bids with DHR funding and and

1042
00:51:50,319 --> 00:51:53,200
I have begun and an an audit of the town

1043
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,440
website and a regular communications

1044
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:59,280
piece called the the main update. So

1045
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,880
those are the main highlights but I will

1046
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:07,680
be happy to answer any questions at

1047
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:09,839
>> I have just one quick question. What are

1048
00:52:09,839 --> 00:52:12,079
the means of distributing the ankco

1049
00:52:12,079 --> 00:52:13,520
update?

1050
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:18,319
>> Right now it is through our um constant

1051
00:52:18,319 --> 00:52:21,440
contact which is an an email

1052
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,680
distribution service and and and right

1053
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,079
now I I am sending it to our contact

1054
00:52:26,079 --> 00:52:28,400
list of residents which which I I

1055
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,720
believe is about a thousand people

1056
00:52:30,720 --> 00:52:31,200
roughly.

1057
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:32,480
>> Okay. Okay.

1058
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:37,359
>> Is it feasible to include a link to it

1059
00:52:37,359 --> 00:52:40,160
to the to the people that you have text

1060
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:44,319
numbers for as well?

1061
00:52:44,319 --> 00:52:45,200
>> Yes.

1062
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:45,520
>> Okay.

1063
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:46,400
>> We can do that.

1064
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:47,280
>> Okay.

1065
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:48,960
>> Because there may be people who are in

1066
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,720
one but not the other. If you want to

1067
00:52:50,720 --> 00:52:53,040
get as broad a coverage that could be a

1068
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:53,680
good tool,

1069
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,079
>> right? And we can put it on social media

1070
00:52:56,079 --> 00:52:56,880
as well.

1071
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:57,599
>> Good idea.

1072
00:52:57,599 --> 00:52:58,000
>> Yeah.

1073
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,349
>> Thank you.

1074
00:53:01,359 --> 00:53:03,440
question. Okay. On the audit, so this is

1075
00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:05,200
for the fiscal year 25 audit. Is that

1076
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,640
the one? So that'll be done in December.

1077
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:08,480
What is the game plan for 26 then?

1078
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:09,760
Because it's usually around when they I

1079
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:11,440
think they look for the next year, isn't

1080
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:11,760
it?

1081
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,240
>> Yeah. So, so we are looking for them to

1082
00:53:14,240 --> 00:53:17,599
start that um right away. As soon as

1083
00:53:17,599 --> 00:53:19,520
they're done, we're on it.

1084
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,800
>> Okay. All right. And then um piggyback

1085
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,119
on what Sarah was talking about, I know

1086
00:53:25,119 --> 00:53:26,640
when we first got Constant Contact,

1087
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:28,240
there was a big push to get people out.

1088
00:53:28,240 --> 00:53:29,599
Maybe there's something up front we can

1089
00:53:29,599 --> 00:53:30,880
share with people when they come in

1090
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:32,720
about signing up again. And I don't know

1091
00:53:32,720 --> 00:53:33,920
if there's other ways we could do a

1092
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:35,520
little like mini campaign to get more

1093
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,160
people signed up. Just a suggestion.

1094
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:39,520
>> That's a good idea.

1095
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,599
>> Thank you,

1096
00:53:41,599 --> 00:53:44,950
>> Cindy.

1097
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:49,040
» Okay. Um on the nuisance lawn control,

1098
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,440
you said you were um devising a standard

1099
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:52,640
operating procedure.

1100
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:53,040
>> Yes.

1101
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:54,640
>> Do you feel like we need to update our

1102
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:56,400
ordinance on that? I know we did it

1103
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,480
fairly recently. I thought

1104
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,599
>> yeah um right now I I think the the

1105
00:54:01,599 --> 00:54:04,079
ordinance itself is pretty strong. I you

1106
00:54:04,079 --> 00:54:05,839
know I I think what what really was

1107
00:54:05,839 --> 00:54:08,400
lacking was the follow through on it and

1108
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,640
so I think we're taken care of for that

1109
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:11,599
now. So

1110
00:54:11,599 --> 00:54:15,599
>> yeah um on the mosquito control

1111
00:54:15,599 --> 00:54:17,359
>> do you have any idea when you'll have

1112
00:54:17,359 --> 00:54:21,040
the um program fleshed out?

1113
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,119
>> That would be a great question for her

1114
00:54:23,119 --> 00:54:24,720
for an okay

1115
00:54:24,720 --> 00:54:27,680
>> if she doesn't mind. So, it's taking

1116
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:29,359
longer than anybody would like, right?

1117
00:54:29,359 --> 00:54:31,119
But let me let me explain to you how

1118
00:54:31,119 --> 00:54:34,000
we've been spending our time

1119
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,800
being good stewards of town money. We

1120
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,359
wanted to cost out not just for this

1121
00:54:39,359 --> 00:54:42,880
season, but going forward, right? And

1122
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,440
so, one option would be more economical

1123
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,520
just for this season. Another option

1124
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,440
would be more economical for next

1125
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,160
season, which entails purchasing some

1126
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,559
equipment, actually getting cylinders

1127
00:54:54,559 --> 00:54:56,480
that we would be filled with carbon

1128
00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:59,839
dioxide, which is not convenient to

1129
00:54:59,839 --> 00:55:01,680
obtain here on the shore. So that

1130
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,319
entails travel costs. And so we're just

1131
00:55:04,319 --> 00:55:05,920
pricing things out to find the most

1132
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:07,839
economical

1133
00:55:07,839 --> 00:55:10,480
route to do it. And so we're kind of in

1134
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:13,040
the finishing touches of that. And as

1135
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:14,640
soon as we make the call on that, we'll

1136
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,200
be able to get started with the with the

1137
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:17,599
uh

1138
00:55:17,599 --> 00:55:19,520
>> So, are you thinking that implementation

1139
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:21,200
will be next spring?

1140
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:22,480
>> Oh, no. We're going to be catching

1141
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,240
mosquitoes. By God, we're going to be

1142
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:26,240
catching mosquitoes in the next few

1143
00:55:26,240 --> 00:55:27,680
weeks if it kills me.

1144
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:29,359
>> I've gotten a couple of complaints about

1145
00:55:29,359 --> 00:55:32,023
it.

1146
00:55:32,023 --> 00:55:32,079
[laughter]

1147
00:55:32,079 --> 00:55:35,119
>> Um my next question,

1148
00:55:35,119 --> 00:55:36,559
>> can we follow up on mosquitoes real

1149
00:55:36,559 --> 00:55:40,240
quick? So I uh to be clear, it doesn't

1150
00:55:40,240 --> 00:55:41,200
look like we're going to be spraying

1151
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:42,880
from mosquitoes this year. Correct.

1152
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:44,319
>> I can't imagine that we would be known.

1153
00:55:44,319 --> 00:55:45,839
>> And we don't even have anybody lined up

1154
00:55:45,839 --> 00:55:48,079
to we don't have a budget. We do.

1155
00:55:48,079 --> 00:55:49,520
>> First of all, we need to have the the

1156
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,839
data to substantiate that it's

1157
00:55:51,839 --> 00:55:53,599
>> necessary. And then we would need to

1158
00:55:53,599 --> 00:55:54,319
identify

1159
00:55:54,319 --> 00:55:54,640
>> right

1160
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:56,480
>> a resource even if we have the money,

1161
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:57,040
>> right?

1162
00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:58,160
>> Uh we would need to go through the

1163
00:55:58,160 --> 00:55:59,839
appropriate steps to identify somebody

1164
00:55:59,839 --> 00:56:00,880
that could do it.

1165
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:01,119
>> Yeah.

1166
00:56:01,119 --> 00:56:03,280
>> And it would need to be tied in with the

1167
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,119
results of the surveillance. And so,

1168
00:56:05,119 --> 00:56:06,640
>> so we're looking at next year if that

1169
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:07,599
when we get our data in.

1170
00:56:07,599 --> 00:56:09,520
>> I would believe so. I I believe yes, I

1171
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:10,079
believe so. But

1172
00:56:10,079 --> 00:56:11,760
>> if if we want to do that,

1173
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:14,000
>> I just can't say enough about how people

1174
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:15,280
really need to make sure that they're

1175
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,520
getting rid of standing water, using

1176
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:18,400
dunks.

1177
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:19,280
>> We got plenty of water

1178
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,599
>> using using screens and doing all those

1179
00:56:21,599 --> 00:56:23,280
steps that everybody can take because

1180
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,599
quite frankly, we could we could spray

1181
00:56:25,599 --> 00:56:27,200
and spray and spray, but if people are

1182
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:30,559
not taking those steps, it's it's just

1183
00:56:30,559 --> 00:56:33,520
going to be an uphill battle. And don't

1184
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:35,119
think I did not say we're going to spray

1185
00:56:35,119 --> 00:56:37,839
and spray and spray. I did not say that.

1186
00:56:37,839 --> 00:56:39,359
But it's important that we all do

1187
00:56:39,359 --> 00:56:42,000
whatever we can because uh uh that's

1188
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,079
what it's going to take to combat the

1189
00:56:44,079 --> 00:56:44,720
issue.

1190
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:45,200
>> Okay.

1191
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:46,960
>> Could I ask if you're doing the trapping

1192
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:48,799
of mosquitoes now to determine what

1193
00:56:48,799 --> 00:56:50,400
we've got and how many and all that.

1194
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:52,799
>> So that's so here here's what we're

1195
00:56:52,799 --> 00:56:54,960
working on right now. We need to use

1196
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,280
carbon dioxide to attract the mosquitoes

1197
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,280
to the trap. Yes. It comes in the form

1198
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:02,720
of dry ice or a tank. And so that's what

1199
00:57:02,720 --> 00:57:05,680
we're looking at the options and which

1200
00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:08,240
one is more economical

1201
00:57:08,240 --> 00:57:10,079
and better for the town in the long

1202
00:57:10,079 --> 00:57:12,240
term. We're just finalizing that. What

1203
00:57:12,240 --> 00:57:14,400
I'm trying to do is find somebody that

1204
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,680
we can get to deliver tanks and I'm

1205
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:19,920
waiting for some calls back on that. But

1206
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:21,599
uh because quite frankly the travel to

1207
00:57:21,599 --> 00:57:23,200
get the tanks would be the most

1208
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:24,880
expensive part of the whole operation

1209
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:26,319
and we don't want to spend money like

1210
00:57:26,319 --> 00:57:28,960
that if we don't have to. So, we're just

1211
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:31,920
we're close. Very close. Okay.

1212
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:33,359
>> Any other any other question? Oh, you're

1213
00:57:33,359 --> 00:57:36,319
still I'm sorry. You only get three

1214
00:57:36,319 --> 00:57:40,150
questions.

1215
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:43,670
» Um,

1216
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,240
» oh, just a suggestion on the website

1217
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:49,040
review. Have you considered um having a

1218
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,599
user group of representatives of the

1219
00:57:51,599 --> 00:57:53,839
public, the town council businesses,

1220
00:57:53,839 --> 00:57:56,079
etc. to kind of review the changes

1221
00:57:56,079 --> 00:57:58,000
you're anticipating to see if that would

1222
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,000
be helpful to them.

1223
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,839
>> That's a good idea. In terms of the um

1224
00:58:03,839 --> 00:58:11,040
Yes. Sorry. So, so for for my audit, I'm focused specifically on on outdated

1225
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:16,720
information and facts and numbers, but what what you're suggesting

1226
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,200
would be great in in terms of looking at

1227
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:21,680
the structure of the website and the and

1228
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:24,000
the ease of use and things like that.

1229
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,079
Just my own personal suggestion is that

1230
00:58:26,079 --> 00:58:28,400
we remove code site code of Virginia

1231
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:31,359
citations from the website because the

1232
00:58:31,359 --> 00:58:33,680
potential for them becoming outdated is

1233
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,640
large.

1234
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:38,319
That's it. Thank you.

1235
00:58:38,319 --> 00:58:40,960
>> Anybody else for this? [gasps] Okay.

1236
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:42,559
Financial report. Any questions about

1237
00:58:42,559 --> 00:58:46,079
the financial report? I think we

1238
00:58:46,079 --> 00:58:53,040
Okay. Anything else from Okay. Okay. Uh,

1239
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:57,829
town council comments. Ashley,

1240
00:58:57,839 --> 00:58:59,280
» just want to piggy back off the comments

1241
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,680
that you made uh about this weekend's

1242
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,000
Blacksmith Festival.

1243
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,640
Um, that was my first time attending.

1244
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:08,559
Um, so I just thought it was a wonderful

1245
00:59:08,559 --> 00:59:11,680
family event. Um, I saw some of my town

1246
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:17,680
council members, also see some of the uh community people that are here in the

1247
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:20,160
meeting that were there. Um, just a very

1248
00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:22,640
nice event. So, that was it. Had a good

1249
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,040
time.

1250
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,640
>> Thank you. I missed the blacksmith event

1251
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:32,720
this year. I've been in the past. Um,

1252
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:34,880
I was out of town this weekend or I

1253
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:38,240
would have been there. Um, just a

1254
00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:42,559
question on the drain grates

1255
00:59:42,559 --> 00:59:47,440
that seem to get clogged regularly and

1256
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:49,760
cleaned seldom

1257
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:54,319
and probably contribute to some of the

1258
00:59:54,319 --> 00:59:58,640
um runoff issues. Is there a way to work

1259
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:00,880
that into the schedule with more

1260
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:02,400
frequency?

1261
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,760
>> Um, so so um I can't say off the top of

1262
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,359
my head, but but that's definitely

1263
01:00:07,359 --> 01:00:08,799
something I can look into.

1264
01:00:08,799 --> 01:00:10,400
>> Okay. Thank you.

1265
01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:13,680
>> V do though,

1266
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:15,359
>> right? Yes. And and

1267
01:00:15,359 --> 01:00:16,079
>> uh Okay.

1268
01:00:16,079 --> 01:00:16,559
>> And so,

1269
01:00:16,559 --> 01:00:17,440
>> well, we still could claim

1270
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,880
>> part of that is if VOTE owns it or or or

1271
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:22,640
if we own it, so that's still part of

1272
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:24,079
the calculation there.

1273
01:00:24,079 --> 01:00:25,040
>> Okay.

1274
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,760
>> But even if VOTE owns it, I would

1275
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:28,720
>> it's floating. We need

1276
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:31,200
>> It may be naive of me, but I would be

1277
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:34,240
surprised if they objected if we cleared

1278
01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:37,119
off the foliage and stuff that's

1279
01:00:37,119 --> 01:00:40,710
blocking it.

1280
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:42,400
» Thank you, Cindy.

1281
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,200
>> Um, I'd just like to echo Ashley and uh

1282
01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:47,760
Fletcher's comments. I went to the uh

1283
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:50,480
Outlaw Museum event and it was really

1284
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,400
enjoyable. I always enjoy my lunch

1285
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:54,160
there. Thank you very much. It was

1286
01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:56,559
great.

1287
01:00:56,559 --> 01:00:58,799
>> Ditto. [laughter]

1288
01:00:58,799 --> 01:01:00,880
I really enjoy the African dancing. That

1289
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:03,119
was I wish we had a like workout class.

1290
01:01:03,119 --> 01:01:05,760
It's so much fun. Um, and they did like

1291
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:07,359
they had us all participate. It was

1292
01:01:07,359 --> 01:01:09,440
really really cool. Um, so yeah, it was

1293
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,240
a nice weekend and and crazy storm. I'm

1294
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:13,920
glad everybody did okay during it.

1295
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:17,680
That's the most important part.

1296
01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:20,799
I have a question for for Wes. I don't

1297
01:01:20,799 --> 01:01:22,559
know if you know the answer and I'm

1298
01:01:22,559 --> 01:01:23,920
disappointed that I haven't thought of

1299
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,040
this sooner, but on the police report,

1300
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:30,400
what's an incident?

1301
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:32,720
I I I I I honestly could couldn't say

1302
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:34,319
what the definition is. I'm sure that

1303
01:01:34,319 --> 01:01:36,079
there are certain parameters to it, but

1304
01:01:36,079 --> 01:01:37,920
I but I can ask Chief.

1305
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,480
>> Okay. So, is it an incoming call? Is it

1306
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:42,799
a call they respond to? I mean, it would

1307
01:01:42,799 --> 01:01:43,680
be kind of nice.

1308
01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:45,440
>> I think it's all of the above. Yeah.

1309
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:46,960
>> So, it's all of the above.

1310
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:48,240
>> Everything they do. Yeah.

1311
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:50,559
>> If uh if it's something that could be

1312
01:01:50,559 --> 01:01:52,640
done simply, I would be I would be

1313
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:54,559
interested in seeing when we have

1314
01:01:54,559 --> 01:01:56,480
citations

1315
01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,480
and not the not the good kind.

1316
01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:02,000
>> Yeah. Um,

1317
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:05,839
and you know when when somebody went out

1318
01:02:05,839 --> 01:02:07,920
to respond to the call, you know, no

1319
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:12,400
action, visit, citation, whatever granularity you can get, I

1320
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:13,680
think would help us understand these

1321
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:18,309
data more.

1322
01:02:18,319 --> 01:02:20,400
And I think there's a lot going on. Lots

1323
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,319
of people are doing doing a lot of

1324
01:02:22,319 --> 01:02:24,559
things on on behalf of the town. And uh

1325
01:02:24,559 --> 01:02:26,079
I thank everybody for everything they're

1326
01:02:26,079 --> 01:02:29,040
doing.

1327
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:30,720
staff change.

1328
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:32,720
>> Yes.

1329
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:34,960
So, thank you. And one thing I

1330
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:36,960
certainly didn't want to forget is that

1331
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,520
unfortunately, uh, Debbie Kaitton, our

1332
01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:43,040
director of of of administration, will

1333
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:46,000
be leaving us after four years. And so,

1334
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,319
sadly, her last day will be September

1335
01:02:48,319 --> 01:02:50,880
4th. And so, I just want to thank her

1336
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:52,880
for her years of service and wish her

1337
01:02:52,880 --> 01:03:01,990
the very best of luck.

1338
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:03,440
All right. We're gonna miss We're gonna

1339
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:04,480
miss you.

1340
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,520
>> We will. I I wanted to say something in

1341
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:09,760
the council comments, but I didn't know

1342
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:12,960
if the timing was appropriate for me to

1343
01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:15,039
open that. So, thank you, Debbie, for

1344
01:03:15,039 --> 01:03:16,240
everything.

1345
01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:18,319
>> All right.

1346
01:03:18,319 --> 01:03:20,000
Um, any other comments? All

1347
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,599
right. Do we have a motion to adjurnn?

1348
01:03:21,599 --> 01:03:22,480
>> So moved.

1349
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:24,079
>> Second.

1350
01:03:24,079 --> 01:03:25,599
>> All in favor? Hi.

1351
01:03:25,599 --> 01:03:27,760
>> Wow. Listen,

1352
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:31,480
that's a world record.
