Um 211 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,520 we kind of [sighs] So we've been having 212 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:36,880 some problem with the PD cars, 213 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,720 especially the motors. Um we actually 214 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,520 lost car number eight. Um you can see on 215 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,919 the police side too on my report. Uh we blew the motor in it. So we are down 216 00:17:45,919 --> 00:17:48,880 a cruiser. Um the anticip 217 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,760 um the chief is debating if we'll just 218 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,039 take that one right out of commission 219 00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:55,120 and replace it with a new one or if we 220 00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:56,559 maintain the rotation. So we're waiting 221 00:17:56,559 --> 00:17:59,360 for an update on that. 222 00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:03,280 Uh fire and EMS uh engine 3 update.

So, working 228 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,640 with the dealership, um, they're 229 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,120 actually they took the truck back and 230 00:18:21,120 --> 00:18:23,200 they stripped it down and are repainting 231 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,280 the officer's side or the passenger side 232 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,440 of the truck. It's expected to take 233 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,600 three weeks, but at least it'll be done 234 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,000 right. It's very unfortunate, but is 235 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,720 what it is.

Uh the airport touch truck 488 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,799 was held at the airport. It was well 489 00:27:26,799 --> 00:27:28,880 attended. Um they've been doing a lot of 490 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,360 painting and rot repair on the building. 491 00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:33,039 It's going actually really good. We 492 00:27:33,039 --> 00:27:34,960 stopped in and checked Corey and I 493 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,559 stopped in last week and checked on 494 00:27:36,559 --> 00:27:38,640 them. Um 495 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,520 just gave him a tour and it's looking 496 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,039 really good. They've actually gone old 497 00:27:43,039 --> 00:27:44,880 school and put the one P1, our 498 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,039 identifier on the roof. 499 00:27:47,039 --> 00:27:50,720 >> So, uh, kind of neat stuff. Uh, 500 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:55,039 facilities downtown is the big one. Um, 501 00:27:55,039 --> 00:27:57,600 we went ahead and did some street light 502 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,120 maintenance, contract with a company, 503 00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:01,120 and they also are doing cleaning of the 504 00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:02,720 lights with hope that'll increase the 505 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,720 lightage downtown. Um, it's long 506 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,640 overdue. They're doing it. We've already 507 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,480 got one day under our belts. We're doing 508 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:09,679 another one, I believe, starting 509 00:28:09,679 --> 00:28:12,000 tomorrow. So you'll see coned parking 510 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,799 lots off the community will um just be 511 00:28:14,799 --> 00:28:16,480 patient because that's for us to access 512 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,750 for maintenance. 513 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,080 Free parking at Plymouth State at Silver 514 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,559 Lots has ended as of yesterday. So there 515 00:28:24,559 --> 00:28:27,279 is no more free parking uh at the Silver 516 00:28:27,279 --> 00:28:30,320 Lots. It'll be back to the normal um 517 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,159 university students move in this 518 00:28:32,159 --> 00:28:33,760 weekend. 519 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,320 One thing that will be different is that 520 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,399 move in is no longer Friday, Saturday, 521 00:28:38,399 --> 00:28:40,000 Sunday. It's just Saturday and Sunday. 522 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,559 They're crushing it all in one weekend. 523 00:28:42,559 --> 00:28:45,919 So, anticipate a lot of traffic back up 524 00:28:45,919 --> 00:28:47,200 in [clears throat] the normal, but it is 525 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,720 just Saturday and Sunday. This Saturday 526 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,240 and Sunday, the 29th and 30th. 527 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,880 All right, the big update. Recycling 528 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,960 center. We lost a compactor over the 529 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,200 weekend. um it had a catastrophic 530 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,320 mechanical failure and due to the 531 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,520 compactor being out uh Jim and his staff 532 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,080 continued to receive refues over the 533 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,760 weekend, but it filled the Bay Area 534 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,080 completely. We weren't so we the 535 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,240 decision was made late Sunday night to 536 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,480 shut down the transfer facility Monday 537 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,480 to allow us to bring in containers to 538 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:24,240 remove it all. Um that being said, they did a stroke of business. They 539 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,840 spent the whole day there just filling 540 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,159 containers and crushing them in. Um we 541 00:29:28,159 --> 00:29:30,320 will be open tomorrow at the transfer 542 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:31,919 station. 543 00:29:31,919 --> 00:29:34,960 Moving forward. Um 544 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,039 we're just we're bringing in containers 545 00:29:37,039 --> 00:29:40,480 three at a time from uh waste management 546 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,240 and just filling them. We're exploring 547 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,120 other options right now. We had the 548 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:46,880 compactor 549 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,320 uh the company that installed it come 550 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,440 and look at it today and 551 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,440 it's not good. So basically the entire 552 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,120 um 553 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,039 the entire support structure, the steel 554 00:29:59,039 --> 00:30:01,840 I beams, everything that levies against 555 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,039 the uh 556 00:30:05,039 --> 00:30:08,480 the hydraulic system failed. It blew 557 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,480 right out. All this it bent it right 558 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,880 out. Um the I- beams failed. It broke in 559 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,840 half. All the welds broke on it. It 560 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,200 actually pushed the whole hydraulic 561 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,080 system out against the wall. So moved it 562 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,880 about 2 feet. Um talking with a guy 563 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,960 today that came up to look at it. He's 564 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,640 like, "I've never seen one do this. It's 565 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,399 actually it reversed." So usually when 566 00:30:28,399 --> 00:30:30,720 they fail, they push in and stop. This 567 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,480 one pushed out and stopped. He goes, "It 568 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,240 makes no sense. It actually pushed the 569 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,799 piston back." There was nothing, no 570 00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:39,840 debris wedged in between 571 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,799 um the piston wall and the piston to the 572 00:30:42,799 --> 00:30:44,399 back frame. There's nothing in there. We 573 00:30:44,399 --> 00:30:46,399 thought maybe like a board gut or some 574 00:30:46,399 --> 00:30:47,520 concrete or something, but there's 575 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,159 nothing. So, we're really not sure why. 576 00:30:50,159 --> 00:30:52,720 Uh we have the company can inspect it. 577 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,039 They're going to give us a price if it's 578 00:30:55,039 --> 00:30:56,960 salvageable to rebuild it. Essentially, 579 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,880 we're rebuilding the whole support 580 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,919 structure and unit. Um anticipating that 581 00:31:01,919 --> 00:31:04,320 the piston would still be good. Um he's 582 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:05,679 going to give us a price for that and 583 00:31:05,679 --> 00:31:08,000 he's going to get us a place a price for 584 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,200 a complete replacement unit. Um in the 585 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,360 meantime, we're also exploring 586 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,360 potentially getting a mobile compactor 587 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:16,720 unit kind of similar to what we see 588 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,279 around PSU. They have several of those 589 00:31:19,279 --> 00:31:21,600 around. um to just from waste management 590 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,480 to put on site so we can move more 591 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,399 refues that way. Just pack it into those 592 00:31:26,399 --> 00:31:28,000 containers, simply move them off versus 593 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,240 just use the machines to fill up the 594 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,000 regular dumpsters. 595 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,559 >> Um so it's a lot of what is right now. I 596 00:31:34,559 --> 00:31:36,320 don't have a solid answer. We we spent a 597 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,399 lot of time today researching it. Jim's 598 00:31:38,399 --> 00:31:39,840 working on getting the final numbers, 599 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,880 but it's it's a catastrophic problem. 600 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,279 It's 601 00:31:43,279 --> 00:31:44,799 >> How old was that compactor? 602 00:31:44,799 --> 00:31:45,760 >> Five years old. 603 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,240 >> Wow. Not even that old.

While we were sitting there 1707 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:03,360 talking, a couple tractor trailers drove 1708 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:06,640 right over it.
