[0:12] 15 minutes. 10:15. Yeah. So, uh, moved and seconded by
[0:19] councelor, uh, Parker. Okay. So, we got 15 minutes to get through the rest of
[0:24] the the, uh, agenda here. Okay. Startup grant $350 each. They're
[0:32] in the same and they're in the same category. That is the same category,
[0:36] isn't it? Holy smokes. Okay. Deferred business.
[0:42] No deferred business. No motions of reconsideration.
[0:48] Go ahead, Council Palmer. So motions reconsideration is something that
[0:54] already happened, right? and I bought I voted positive on it.
[1:00] Okay. So, I want to change change my vote. So, can I put that on
[1:06] the floor? Okay.
[1:13] I want to bring back the motion for transferring
[1:18] the the uh the surplus into the uh
[1:26] surplus into the internet project. Okay, I vote in favor. I want to
[1:38] but I still can't vote no nay on that. Can
[1:43] I? The reason I'm vote The reason I I say
[1:47] this is I don't think our taxpayers want money going from their taxes into an
[1:55] internet project that is supposed to be sustainable through the project. And
[2:00] that's why
[2:04] I should have voted against it when it came through.
[2:09] I know I probably can't do that, but I had to say my part. So, you know what I
[2:13] mean? Well, Milton, get Milton's opinion. See,
[2:21] Brian, but in order to you'd have to change the whole vote over and right.
[2:27] So, no, I just wanted to make my point. That's all. Okay. Deputy Warden,
[2:33] just a comment on that is that as the internet project goes ahead and makes
[2:38] money that's going to go back into against the well into capital or into
[2:45] our revenue that will help offset the tax rate or whatever. So, it's it's
[2:51] going back into it for sure. It's just kind of getting the lend at the time,
[2:54] but at the end of the project, the money will be going back in to the county's
[2:58] revenue. Okay. Warden Parker.
[3:04] Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just wanted to make sure the Camp Getty one at the end,
[3:07] even though it says recreation capital grant, that is a different category. So,
[3:12] we could approve that one. So, I'll make a motion then that we uh approve the
[3:17] recreation capital grant for Camp Getty for the $1,000.
[3:22] It's moved and seconded. All those in favor? I contraed. Motion
[3:28] carried. any community announcements or can we
[3:34] you got one there? Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Um
[3:40] I was talking to um Karen Burcilski is the teacher down at the Thumbman
[3:44] Regional High School and she um informed me that the um
[3:51] federal government has um granted them 150,000 for the community for the
[3:57] greenhouse project. of us that we were working towards. So that that's going to
[4:03] happen. So I just wanted to let everybody know. I I think it's great
[4:06] news. They'll have that and Sean Fraser helped out a lot there. Thank you, Mr.
[4:13] Chair. Thank you. Any other announcements?
[4:20] Declare the meeting adjourned. Oh, sorry. Go ahead. No, let's I can
[4:24] probably ask Brian or or Logan, but Oh, no. or Brian, but the lady that's
