1
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:40,190
then

2
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,200
good evening we're going to call the me

3
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,840
in the order the time is 6:

4
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,879
PM uh next item on the agenda is the

5
00:00:47,879 --> 00:00:50,280
approval of the agenda so the motion

6
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,680
reads that the agenda for council

7
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,440
meeting of October 7th 2024 be approved

8
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,239
as presented mve in second here

9
00:00:57,239 --> 00:01:00,519
please Council mccon no I would like

10
00:01:00,519 --> 00:01:03,000
something added to the agenda to our in

11
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,400
camera

12
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,479
session it's a question that I have in

13
00:01:08,479 --> 00:01:10,960
regards to something we've discussed in

14
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:12,280
Council

15
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,360
previously and I think it would be a

16
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,320
clarification based on what I've

17
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:20,960
seen in tonight's agenda as to whether

18
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:24,159
it is still a matter for in camera or

19
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:28,960
not and if I ask it in general it it's a

20
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:32,040
yes or a no it's a quick thing but it

21
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,990
would be to everybody's fa to know

22
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,399
so coun McConnell do you know what

23
00:01:40,399 --> 00:01:44,719
section that close section for what

24
00:01:44,719 --> 00:01:48,439
matters I haven't got a clue so it might

25
00:01:48,439 --> 00:01:50,719
be something that we are going to

26
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:55,200
discuss tonight in which case I

27
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,439
don't okay I know it's it's a it's an

28
00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:00,719
unusual thing but

29
00:02:00,719 --> 00:02:02,240
I would have never asked it if I hadn't

30
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,479
seen something in tonight's that makes

31
00:02:05,479 --> 00:02:07,200
me wonder whether it's still in camera

32
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,400
or not we should

33
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,200
know okay fine you can add like

34
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,680
a I just I just

35
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,120
find meetings that it could fall so I

36
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,150
can get

37
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,360
clarification uh purchase and sale or

38
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:31,800
identifiable

39
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,869
individual purchase and

40
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:39,040
sale I I should mention that yeah that

41
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,440

42
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,800

43
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,720
Council McConnell Council Kirkby all in

tonight being none we'll move

47
00:02:55,879 --> 00:02:58,560
on no presentations tonight but we do

48
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,080
have a delegation tonight from the

49
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,040
Sunday Night concert series and the St

50
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,120
Lawrence shakes profess Valerie

51
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:11,789
Schultz floor is

52
00:03:11,799 --> 00:03:13,840
yours what do you

53
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,400
think I'm here representing the Sunday

54
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Night concerts we are not asking for

55
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,280
money but for your help for those of you

56
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,400
that might have attended our concerts

57
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,120
you will notice that our numbers are

58
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,959
increasing for instance when Eddie and

59
00:03:26,959 --> 00:03:29,400
the sting race performed we had over 500

60
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,360
people

61
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,879
that is encountering the people that

62
00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:33,879
would KN it in and were sitting

63
00:03:33,879 --> 00:03:37,640
outside the Avery flight is between 250

64
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:38,799
and

65
00:03:38,799 --> 00:03:42,159
350s our big concern is if we have to go

66
00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:45,120
in the arena because of rain this summer

67
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,319
we had to go in twice and the second

68
00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:49,480
time we lost money we did not bring in

69
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,439
enough to pay the performer the arena is

70
00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:54,879
a great venue it's only something could

71
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:57,640
be done about the acoustic with it

72
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,159
Su we have already had one of our

73
00:04:00,159 --> 00:04:01,920
entertainers come up and say if I have

74
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,599
to go in the arena I am

75
00:04:04,599 --> 00:04:07,040
canceling what we would like the town to

76
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,799
do is number one give us a portable

77
00:04:09,799 --> 00:04:12,560
stage that we can put up at a moment's

78
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,879
notice because we usually only have a

79
00:04:14,879 --> 00:04:17,160
couple of hours between the time we make

80
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,320
the decision and letting the town

81
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,040
know when we ask whoever is on duty and

82
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,120
ask to have the stage put up they say

83
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,040
they cannot do it because they need more

84
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,479
man pound if it is a portable stage it's

85
00:04:29,479 --> 00:04:31,440
e a lot

86
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,800
easier however the main thing is making

87
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,320
the Acoustics better we have spoken to

88
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,039
Randy oia La who as you know played in

89
00:04:39,039 --> 00:04:41,840
The Arena New Year's Eve and for the

90
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:43,600
fire

91
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,120
student he suggested two things that

92
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,720
could improve the

93
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,919
acoustic first sound bounces off the

94
00:04:50,919 --> 00:04:54,280
glass panels either remove them there

95
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:56,759
was no hockey plan anymore in the arena

96
00:04:56,759 --> 00:04:59,840
or put a curtain up also he suggested

97
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:02,000
the stage be at the North End facing

98
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,720
south and curtains we've been put out

99
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,919
between East and West I've made a

100
00:05:06,919 --> 00:05:09,680
diagram which I'll show you

101
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,039
later next summer we have engaged

102
00:05:12,039 --> 00:05:14,000
another band which is as popular as the

103
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,400
sing race called Ambush and if they have

104
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,199
to go in the arena I don't think they

105
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:21,400
will want to come back as the fact we

106
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,440
won't make enough money to cover their

107
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,400
cost nothing is cheap these

108
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,360
days bill and I watch the radio from the

109
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,120
radio from the minute we get up in the

110
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,160
morning and we're watching the storms go

111
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,440
through and believe you

112
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,560
me sometimes where it's really

113
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,800
nerve-wracking we have to let the

114
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,840
entertainers know or the people know

115
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:44,919
around 4:30 and we also have to let the

116
00:05:44,919 --> 00:05:48,670
town know if we want to use the

117
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,520
arena that's the bands are not going to

118
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,680
risk their equipment being out in the

119
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,479
ring and we also have to think of the

120
00:05:58,479 --> 00:06:00,759
safety of the audiences if it's a

121
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:03,120
thunderstorm last year we had two bands

122
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,039
it did rain in the middle but it only a

123
00:06:05,039 --> 00:06:08,880
springle which was fine they continue to

124
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,639
play Shakespeare I know would also like

125
00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:13,840
to use arena in the case of rain outs

126
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:16,199
but again it all comes down to the

127
00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:18,720
acis unfortunately ingry could not be

128
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,319
here this evening as they are having a

129
00:06:20,319 --> 00:06:22,319
very important board meeting but she

130
00:06:22,319 --> 00:06:24,400
asked me to also stress to you the

131
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,520
importance of the Acoustics being

132
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,560
addressed they would like to use the

133
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,039
arena for their out plus their Wednesday

134
00:06:31,039 --> 00:06:32,199
afternoon

135
00:06:32,199 --> 00:06:35,440
lday another another CL of having them

136
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,479
concerts at the arena and shapes to is

137
00:06:38,479 --> 00:06:40,680
that there is Apple parking we have a

138
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,120
lot of people with on wheelchairs

139
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,199
motorized wheelchairs it's easy for them

140
00:06:46,199 --> 00:06:48,039
to get into the arena but it wouldn't be

141
00:06:48,039 --> 00:06:51,309
easy to get anywhere

142
00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:54,280
else so we would appreciate it very much

143
00:06:54,280 --> 00:06:57,000
if you consider our request we want

144
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,759
Sunday Night concerts to continue this

145
00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:02,720
has to be addressed and fixed thank you

very is

149
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,319
suggestion questions if anybody has any

150
00:07:19,319 --> 00:07:22,280
questions Justin through you mayor

151
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,039
Shankar you say there's no charge for

152
00:07:25,039 --> 00:07:28,080
the to the people attending the concert

153
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,960
is that correct

154
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,280
not it's a free

155
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,319
will so with donations

156
00:07:36,319 --> 00:07:38,479
only the average is

157
00:07:38,479 --> 00:07:41,879
$5 some people put 20 in but the average

158
00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:45,879
is five some people only put two in but

159
00:07:45,879 --> 00:07:48,000
we make enough to cover our costs you

160
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,599
make enough to cover your cost as kind

161
00:07:49,599 --> 00:07:52,599
of M right now right we have to keep

162
00:07:52,599 --> 00:07:55,440
going in the arena they

163
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,000
von't the I guess the second part of

164
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,159
that question for for me is when you

165
00:08:00,159 --> 00:08:02,759
cancel a band do they charge you a fee

166
00:08:02,759 --> 00:08:05,560
anyways we've never had to cancel touch

167
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,120
okay there you go that answers we have

168
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,080
to pay a lot of the Bands require a

169
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,080
deposit right and then we pay them the

170
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,520
balance after they finish performing yep

171
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,960
so if they have to go into the arena and

172
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,319
we've already paid them a

173
00:08:22,319 --> 00:08:26,189
deposit we Lo

174
00:08:26,199 --> 00:08:31,029

175
00:08:31,039 --> 00:08:34,080

179
00:08:41,560 --> 00:08:45,399
an elevator but 500 people going in

180
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:48,600

181
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,160

okay yeah the most attendance we had

196
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,959
this year was when we went in the arena

197
00:09:37,959 --> 00:09:41,000
with Marlin forcet that was terrible and

198
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,640
the Acoustics were terrible yeah I'm

199
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,680
just trying to think if there's

200
00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:48,480
another venue just for Eddie and the

201
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,760
Stingrays you know you're going to get

202
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,640
so many people and whether it's raining

203
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,240
or not just planet for there and there

204
00:09:55,240 --> 00:10:01,670
isn't anywhere El I wish there was

205
00:10:01,680 --> 00:10:03,880
yeah I'm thinking we have another Arena

206
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,519
but I don't know what scheduling well

207
00:10:06,519 --> 00:10:09,440
but the new arena is is great but you

208
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,839
start putting the ice in there in August

209
00:10:11,839 --> 00:10:14,720

August right just thinking out

213
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,640

Shanker um I attended a cemetery board

00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,360
meeting a week ago and we just discussed

298
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,399
a couple of things there's some trees

299
00:14:47,399 --> 00:14:50,880
that large trees that needed to be

300
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:56,279
removed and um we were given permission

301
00:14:56,279 --> 00:14:59,360
by the ass board to have that done it

302
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:00,720
was a matter of about

303
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,759
$2,600 I think and they were back there

304
00:15:03,759 --> 00:15:06,199
doing that today I was back and had a

305
00:15:06,199 --> 00:15:08,440
look they were doing a nice job very

306
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,360
careful Around The Monuments and that's

307
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,320
the why they're been removed because

308
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,920
they were danger to The Monuments if

309
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,320
they had

310
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,320
fallen um as well I was at the cemetery

311
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,680
this morning we had a permission from

312
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:24,880
the

313
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,759
board to start spending money the

314
00:15:27,759 --> 00:15:29,880
anticipation is we're going going to do

315
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:34,279
this every year for uh repair of

316
00:15:34,279 --> 00:15:38,240
monuments we have many many dozens of

317
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,880
monuments in the Sandy Hill Cemetery

318
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,199
that have been damaged over the years

319
00:15:45,199 --> 00:15:49,519
that are in danger of falling over um

320
00:15:49,519 --> 00:15:53,399
that are laying flat it's disrespectful

321
00:15:53,399 --> 00:15:56,279
to the people that came before us in

322
00:15:56,279 --> 00:15:58,639
this community and the cemetery board is

323
00:15:58,639 --> 00:16:00,959
of the the feeling that is time we

324
00:16:00,959 --> 00:16:04,199
started bringing these monuments back to

325
00:16:04,199 --> 00:16:08,720
a suitable condition so um we are doing

326
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,639

327
00:16:12,639 --> 00:16:14,759
where we will be fixing some of these

328
00:16:14,759 --> 00:16:16,720
monuments uh we're going to take a look

329
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,360

330
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:25,880
on that do a larger uh repair next year

00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,320
me can I just cut in here on the dive

372
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,760
bench I'm sorry but I forgot about this

373
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,000
last meeting and somebody mentioned it

374
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,919
to me down

375
00:18:21,919 --> 00:18:26,159
street we have a new dive sign up as

376
00:18:26,159 --> 00:18:29,000
well and whoever put the dive sign up

377
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,039
and the bench up did not get together

378
00:18:31,039 --> 00:18:34,159
because you can't see part of the sign

379
00:18:34,159 --> 00:18:35,640
for the top of the

380
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,080
bench uh you can from the side when

381
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,720
you're in the water but if you want to

382
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,520
look at the sign the sign is here and

383
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,840
the bench comes over it so I don't know

384
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,600
what we can do because it's a big

385
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,400
bench and we are having some

Rainer recommendation reads that Council

00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,919
37818 can mover and secondary for

467
00:22:45,919 --> 00:22:49,240
discussion councelor Briton councelor uh

468

worship so in front of you is the staff

470
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,760
report and then the attachment is the

471
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,919
actual document which is 40 PS long so I

472
00:23:01,919 --> 00:23:03,840
won't spend that much time going over

473
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,320
that but um basically what we've done is

474
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,039
a community risk assessment uh

475
00:23:10,039 --> 00:23:13,200
identifies analyze and evaluates

476
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,559
prioritize risk to the the public and

477
00:23:16,559 --> 00:23:21,279
and the community so we use uh data from

478
00:23:21,279 --> 00:23:24,360
the Census we use uh information from

479
00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:26,880
The Mont Fire Marshals uh document that

480
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,440
we send uh to them uh based on those

481
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,880
risks and type of calls so when we have

482
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,320
uh nine profiles here so these were the

483
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,919
work sheets that we used to get this

484
00:23:38,919 --> 00:23:41,640
document so that was everything from

485
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,919
geographical uh building stock critical

486
00:23:44,919 --> 00:23:47,640
infrastructure uh demographic

487
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,360
profile Hazard profile public fire

488
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:55,600
safety uh economic profile and then loss

489
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,919
and events of History so some of these

490
00:23:58,919 --> 00:24:01,679
documents are already in our uh

491
00:24:01,679 --> 00:24:04,279
emergency plan for example Hazard

492
00:24:04,279 --> 00:24:06,480
profile and the critical infrastructure

493
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,360
so there's some meat and potatoes in the

494
00:24:08,360 --> 00:24:10,240
document where they are now so what

495
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,320
we've done is used these other

496
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,240
worksheets to to f fill all of those

497
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,159
areas we take all of that and then we

498
00:24:18,159 --> 00:24:23,320
use uh risk based on likelihood or risk

499
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,120
of potential risks so the consequences

500
00:24:26,120 --> 00:24:29,039
so there's an actual uh

501
00:24:29,039 --> 00:24:32,360
map there a chart sorry so you can see

502
00:24:32,360 --> 00:24:34,320
in some of them there's green areas

503
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,520
yellow areas red areas so the red areas

504
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,679
obviously are higher risk so what do we

505
00:24:39,679 --> 00:24:43,360
do to mitigate that that could be

506
00:24:43,360 --> 00:24:48,039
uh pre-planning inspections uh training

507
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:50,960
uh working with uh neighbors to assist

508
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,679
us at a call with required uh going out

509
00:24:53,679 --> 00:24:57,559
to the industries the buildings uh just

510
00:24:57,559 --> 00:24:58,840
in in town

511
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,520
is what we do so we look at all those

512
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,120
areas and what you have in front of you

513
00:25:03,120 --> 00:25:05,640
is that document at the end uh you will

514
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,320
find that there's a lot of stats out of

515
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,399
that uh the census doc document for us

516
00:25:12,399 --> 00:25:15,840
uh it Tak quite a long time to get

517
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,440
all together uh but at the end of the

518
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,240
day there really wasn't a lot there with

519
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,480
this community risk assessment a lot of

520
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,240
it is is what we see out in the public

521
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,679
uh and then the the stats we Ed from the

522
00:25:29,679 --> 00:25:31,200
fire Marshall's office and as you can

523
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,279
see at the bottom of that document I

524
00:25:33,279 --> 00:25:36,279
guess the last few pages there's dreams

525
00:25:36,279 --> 00:25:38,480
of uh documentation from the fire

526
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,120
Marshall's office that just adds up to

527
00:25:41,120 --> 00:25:43,840
at the end of the day it tells you uh

528
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,080
the dollar LW for whether it's structure

529
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,559
whether it's uh vehicles uh and then

530
00:25:49,559 --> 00:25:51,480
other type of calls we have I think the

531
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:55,399
most uh important document there of of

532
00:25:55,399 --> 00:25:58,799
the Fire Marshals uh documentation is

533
00:25:58,799 --> 00:26:01,720
the first pie chart so for example it

534
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,880
says I think it's 29.4% of all calls we

535
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,320
get are medical calls you know I think

536
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:12,039
it's 22 23% are false alarm calls but

537
00:26:12,039 --> 00:26:14,279
false alarm calls go in another category

538
00:26:14,279 --> 00:26:16,760
as well right there's sometimes uh

539
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,039
people are doing testing they'll call

540
00:26:19,039 --> 00:26:22,120
the alarm company uh versus could be a

541
00:26:22,120 --> 00:26:24,279
Mr Mrs Smith call where they think

542
00:26:24,279 --> 00:26:27,320
there's an issue but it's proceed

543
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,200
emergency um but we still when we roll

544
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,159
out the door we don't know that right we

545
00:26:33,159 --> 00:26:36,880
go get a page and we go off to a call an

546
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,960
emergency call we don't know that till

547
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,919
after so that's where you see all of

548
00:26:40,919 --> 00:26:43,600
those documentation numbers after and

549
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,559
the percentages there are so the reason

550
00:26:46,559 --> 00:26:48,240
why I have all of that in front of you

551
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,960
is to say it's it's a very uh unique

552
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,720
document uh we will uh P it you will see

553
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,159
that there are annual years uh each year

554
00:26:59,159 --> 00:27:01,320
moving forward where if we find

555
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,360
something that we want to change because

556
00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:05,840
it's a living document we will do that

557
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,679
and then every five years we do the

558
00:27:08,679 --> 00:27:10,960
whole thing over again so new census

559
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,880
information and and whatnot um but as

560
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,120
you can see as I said a lot of stats uh

561
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:20,679
in front of you um be more than happy to

562
00:27:20,679 --> 00:27:23,480
answer any questions you may

563
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,840
have I just thought maybe if you can't

564
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,559
have a easy way of sleeping tonight that

565
00:27:28,559 --> 00:27:30,070
again you'll be

566
00:27:30,070 --> 00:27:32,399
[Laughter]

567
00:27:32,399 --> 00:27:34,880
good any questions for the

568
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,159
Chief look Mar thank you may Shankar

569
00:27:39,159 --> 00:27:42,039
just um this was great it's eye opening

570
00:27:42,039 --> 00:27:43,919
and for me I really looked at the

571
00:27:43,919 --> 00:27:47,120
business and personal service mertile

572
00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:49,240
and the lack of fire extinguishers and

573
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,000
not only that but the lack of training

574
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,519
so I see a great opportunity for the Bia

575
00:27:54,519 --> 00:27:56,200
to give you guys a call and say hey

576
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:57,519
let's set something up for the

577
00:27:57,519 --> 00:27:58,640
businesses

578
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,080
because I know even in our business

579
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,600
we're an insurance business but we still

580
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,600
have a kitchen right and we still have

581
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,840
other things so I think that would be

582
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,480
great in the future if we could maybe

583
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,240
collaborate with the Bia I think it's a

584
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,760
perfect opportunity so for example on

585
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,480
the open house we have coming up next

586
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,519
Saturday we'll have a tutor there and a

587
00:28:17,519 --> 00:28:21,080
tutor is just a way of using uh fire

588
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,880
extinguisher to put out a pretend fire

589
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,519
uh and a lot of time the parents bring

590
00:28:25,519 --> 00:28:28,399
their kids and stuff but if it's the

591
00:28:28,399 --> 00:28:30,159
it's we have it right so it's something

592
00:28:30,159 --> 00:28:33,080
we could work with you right even if we

593
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,360
had at the fire hall right and find a

594
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:39,360
day where you could bring uh the Bia and

595
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,240
we can figure that out because it's uh

596
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,240
it's amazing I mean I have fire exites

597
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,880
in my house hope I never use them but

598
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,519
the average person buy them it's great

599
00:28:49,519 --> 00:28:51,519
that they have them but would not know

600
00:28:51,519 --> 00:28:54,600
how to use right so yeah we definitely

601
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:55,799
thank

602
00:28:55,799 --> 00:28:59,159
you very good anyone else have a

603
00:28:59,159 --> 00:29:01,559
question Council m i can speaking from

604
00:29:01,559 --> 00:29:03,600
experience as you well know that a fire

605
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,120
extinguisher in your house comes in very

606
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,880
handy and you should know how to use it

607
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,640
and the difference between one for the

608
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,000
kitchen and one for your couch in the

609
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,279
recck room or something like that yeah

610
00:29:18,279 --> 00:29:21,600
my my microwave caught fires as I think

611
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:25,110
I mentioned about a year

612
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,640
ago yeah you were lucky you're looking

613
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,480
and quickly just I wanted to also

614
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,559
mention that there is a typle on table

615
00:29:34,559 --> 00:29:37,760
of contents uh it's a formatting issue I

616
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,720
it looks great when you look at it but

617
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,320
when I print it off it comes up uh and

618
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,640
there was two areas as well uh because

619
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,120
this document started in

620
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,760
221 to to finish so there's a couple of

621
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,840
uh types in there uh I added the ACCC

622
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,039
for Community Center uh and then we had

623
00:29:59,039 --> 00:30:03,279
uh a building uh listed as a possible uh

624
00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:06,200
occupant for departments as wiser I

625
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,600
removed that at this point in time so

626
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,640
you will see that but I finally saw that

627
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,440
was needed to be taken out so rookie was

628
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,120
safe it's a lot of work here Chief you

629
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,320
did a great job and it's a good document

630
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,880
it's a almost like a living document

631
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,279
that we can have that we can always

632
00:30:23,279 --> 00:30:26,559
refer to and update and change each year

633
00:30:26,559 --> 00:30:28,559
yes yeah there's a lot of stats in there

634
00:30:28,559 --> 00:30:31,399
the one stat I noticed was there's more

635
00:30:31,399 --> 00:30:33,440
more people over the age of 85 than

636
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,159
there are kids under the age of four so

637
00:30:37,159 --> 00:30:38,679
that's kind of interesting but I

638
00:30:38,679 --> 00:30:41,600
remember that from the Census before as

639
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,960

721
00:34:10,159 --> 00:34:12,919
questions um I'm reading through this

722
00:34:12,919 --> 00:34:13,960
I'm just a

723
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,399
little just bit unclear to

724
00:34:17,399 --> 00:34:21,280
me are the individual department

725
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:26,440
heads the final say as far as

726
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:31,200
um result a complaint irregardless of

727
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:39,109
whether it comes from staff

728
00:34:39,119 --> 00:34:44,359
or that I I couldn't I've got gone

729
00:34:44,359 --> 00:34:46,520
through this about three times and it's

730
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,240
it's you can it different ways it

731
00:34:49,240 --> 00:34:51,240

732
00:34:51,240 --> 00:34:52,320
to

733
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:58,270
be firmed up B

734
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,119
[Music]

735
00:35:00,119 --> 00:35:01,560
I believe our discussions we felt that

736
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:11,950
it would it would

737
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,280
be public or anybody can to uh if you

738
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,160
feel it's not clear though let let me

739
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,320
know how we can tighten that up to make

740
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,079
to provide that

741
00:35:22,079 --> 00:35:34,670
Clarity but as of right now

742
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,240
because they do more than then it's the

743
00:35:37,240 --> 00:35:40,160
obvious stuff that they do around town

744
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,880
if uh somebody's complaining about a

745
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:47,480
flower bed will say um then the actual

746
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,319
head of the public works

747
00:35:50,319 --> 00:35:52,800
department right now we don't have one I

748
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:57,280
don't think um and Nathan left this this

749
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:58,480
week

750
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,720
uh that department head would look after

751
00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:01,520
the

752
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,480
complaint and if the complaintant was

753
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,880
not satisfied with the solution that was

754
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,760
offered you're saying that it it goes to

755
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,440
the utsman from there for you so that

756
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,400
that's an option if they feel like the

757
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,520
result isn't what they want for

758
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,359
something like a flower bit though I

759
00:36:20,359 --> 00:36:23,000
think the policy outlines an informal

760
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,839
and a formal complaint so it's the first

761
00:36:24,839 --> 00:36:26,560
time you complain as a FL but it's not

762
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,599
readed that makes sense to rise the

763
00:36:28,599 --> 00:36:30,359
director of operations so then make sure

764
00:36:30,359 --> 00:36:31,920
that staff go up and clean up the flower

765
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,839
but if it's repeatedly requested over

766
00:36:34,839 --> 00:36:36,960
and over again then it becomes a formal

767
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:37,920
complaint and there's more of an

768
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,240
investigation so then we look into it

769
00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:44,520
and then the the result is to deal with

770
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,400
it internally so there's there's not

771
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,000
really an appeal

772
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,200
process but it would be the expectation

773
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,319
per head would be able to resolve that

774
00:36:56,319 --> 00:36:59,920
issue okay okay well um

775
00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:02,119
I've there was something else came

776
00:37:02,119 --> 00:37:03,800
before Council a while ago and I made

777
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,280
the same comment and I'm going to make

778
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,319
the same comment about this one I can't

779
00:37:08,319 --> 00:37:12,599
support something that does not give our

780
00:37:12,599 --> 00:37:14,720
Town's people the

781
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:19,079
option of as a final Resort before going

782
00:37:19,079 --> 00:37:20,200
to the

783
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,240
utsman to appealing directly for or to

784
00:37:24,240 --> 00:37:26,520
council we're elected by the people in

785
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,720
the community they expect us to provide

786
00:37:28,720 --> 00:37:30,680
good government we do the best that we

787
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,040
can but when there is a complaint if

788
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,079
they're not satisfied with how the

789
00:37:36,079 --> 00:37:37,560
complaint is

790
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:42,680
handled I believe they should have the

791
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,960
ability to launch a final appeal to

792
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,520
this

793
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,920
group before they have to go through a

794
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,200
whole bunch of work which could take God

795
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,920
only knows how long and take it out of

796
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,359
this community to the

797
00:37:58,359 --> 00:38:01,960
udman so uh

798
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,000
personally I can't

799
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:09,000
support anything of this ilk if it did

800
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,079
not contain that

801
00:38:11,079 --> 00:38:15,630
option thank

802
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,359
you one

803
00:38:18,359 --> 00:38:22,520
second in in preparation for this I

804
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:26,079
don't mind if we talked about it is that

805
00:38:26,079 --> 00:38:29,520
Avenue used by any

806
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,079
municipalities so through you for this

807
00:38:32,079 --> 00:38:37,710
policy I believe we quite a bit at

808
00:38:37,720 --> 00:38:42,359
Northville stor North stor Stormont um

809
00:38:42,359 --> 00:38:44,240
none of the ones that we looked at had

810
00:38:44,240 --> 00:38:47,000
cancel as the final

811
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:52,190
appeal it's always up to

812
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,880
cancel I just don't want to turn Council

813
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,000
into hearing complaints all day long or

814
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,800
are appealed

815
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,920
complaints I don't want that to happen

816
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,680
and by you know in all respect if you

817
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,040
want to put that

818
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,839
in you know we have

819
00:39:10,839 --> 00:39:13,760
to we have to trust our staff to do to

820
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,200
make the right

821
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,079
call you understand what I'm

822
00:39:19,079 --> 00:39:22,880
saying yeah uh I do understand what

823
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,319
you're saying I don't agree with it

824
00:39:25,319 --> 00:39:29,319
though I believe as I said that we are

825
00:39:29,319 --> 00:39:33,119
elected not staff we represent the

826
00:39:33,119 --> 00:39:34,480
people in the

827
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:39,520
community staff represents us but if the

828
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,440
people who are in the community have a

829
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,960
complaint and I use a flower bed as a

830
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,319
very poor example and I will admit it

831
00:39:48,319 --> 00:39:51,160
but um if somebody in the community does

832
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,119
have a complaint I believe that they

833
00:39:54,119 --> 00:39:56,440
should have the ability to complain to

834
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,440
council as the final result because you

835
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:00,680
know darn well they're going to complain

836
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,359
to all of us individually or out when

837
00:40:03,359 --> 00:40:06,040
you're walking your dog

838
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:09,000
anyway and then we really can't respond

839
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,359
to it in an individual way it's it's

840
00:40:12,359 --> 00:40:14,960
it's not within our power to do so and

841
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,119
we shouldn't so bringing it before

842
00:40:19,119 --> 00:40:21,839
Council for a decision I believe it's

843
00:40:21,839 --> 00:40:24,040
the proper way to do it the fact that

844
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:25,760
nobody else does it doesn't really

845
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,040
matter it's not going to change my

846
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:32,319
opinion on it so that is um that's the

847
00:40:32,319 --> 00:40:35,599
way I feel about it thank you anyone

848
00:40:35,599 --> 00:40:39,240
else oh sorry yes um a couple things I

849
00:40:39,240 --> 00:40:41,079
know we went over most of this but I'm

850
00:40:41,079 --> 00:40:43,480
just trying to clarify again so under

851
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,359
the complaints it's saying that um it

852
00:40:46,359 --> 00:40:48,160
needs to be submitted in writing we're

853
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,839
considering email writing correct okay

854
00:40:51,839 --> 00:40:54,960
and then under the formal um complaint

855
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,560
process it says um

856
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,040
it's going to be uh acknowledged in five

857
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:02,800
days is

858
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,200
um acknowledged and uh receipt of does

859
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,400
that mean we're just documenting it but

860
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,359
we're not letting them know like are we

861
00:41:10,359 --> 00:41:12,800
letting the complaint person know within

862
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,960
five days that we received it and we're

863
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,440
looking into it or whatever so sh when

864
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:19,880
the form comes to whether it's handed in

865
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,960
in person or online it comes directly to

866
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,319
K myself we review it assess it figure

867
00:41:25,319 --> 00:41:31,589
what to send it through to

868
00:41:31,599 --> 00:41:33,960
then then they know where it's going and

869
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:38,870
then they also have that

870
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:44,000
first K through you mayor Shanker I kind

871
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,280
of agree with councelor McConnell but

872
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,920
not on every complaint I mean there

873
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,359
seems there almost needs to be like a

874
00:41:51,359 --> 00:41:54,520
threshold of where Council would be

875
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,599
aware one for me is the unreasonable

876
00:41:57,599 --> 00:42:01,440
Behavior right that there I feel like

877
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,800
should come to council or some kind of

878
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,760
information on that decision that maybe

879
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,200
you know we're going to trespass

880
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,359
somebody or something like that that for

881
00:42:11,359 --> 00:42:16,839
me is kind of one or something where

882
00:42:16,839 --> 00:42:20,480
staff really isn't sure on what the next

883
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,520
direction is you know they may feel that

884
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,200
you know there is a bit of uh legitimacy

885
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,800
to the complaint but there's also you

886
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,400
know a side of it that's not you know I

887
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,240
don't think Council we want to be like

888
00:42:34,240 --> 00:42:35,520
you said bogged down with every

889
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,040
complaint that comes through staff

890
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,440
because staff is here to deal with that

891
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,400
but I do feel you know when we get to

892
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:45,040
that upper level of complaints that

893
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,480
Council should have some vision and

894
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,599
maybe even possibly some say on the

895
00:42:50,599 --> 00:42:53,760
final decision of that matter and I

896
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,760
guess the the last question I'm sure

897
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,680
that was actually called in the the

898
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,960
handling you know for some of the staff

899
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,400
because we do have staff that has family

900
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,920
right connections I'm sure that would be

901
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:10,960
dealt with separately I.E if one of your

902
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:12,200
sons worked here and you were the

903
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,119
department head you're not going to

904
00:43:14,119 --> 00:43:15,839
resolve that issue right that's going to

905
00:43:15,839 --> 00:43:18,280
be moved to a conflict of interest and

906
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,040
moved to another department head is that

907
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:21,599
correct and should that be called out in

908
00:43:21,599 --> 00:43:25,200
this document as far as the conflict of

909
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:29,549
interest

910
00:43:29,559 --> 00:43:31,000
I mean it's something we can take into

911
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,520
consideration right like if it is a

912
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,599
conflict of interest well I don't think

913
00:43:35,599 --> 00:43:37,960
honestly for myself comforable with any

914
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,240
family member making a decision on

915
00:43:40,240 --> 00:43:42,160
another family

916
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:47,119
member as a councel okay Deputy clerk

917
00:43:47,119 --> 00:43:48,520
sorry cler

918
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,119
sorry we're kind of getting into like an

919
00:43:51,119 --> 00:43:52,440
matter at that point which would be

920
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,079
addressed when the person's on board and

921
00:43:54,079 --> 00:43:56,000
hired they're not going to be reporting

922
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,720
to a family member we have certain

923
00:43:57,720 --> 00:44:00,440
policies in place that kind of govern

924
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,760
that I don't see that kind of falling

925
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:07,000
under the compl policy as an HR matter

926
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,000
uh the COO and other department have

927
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,920
would be definitely be involved in doing

928
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:14,720
that so Ral

929
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:17,040
conflict through you mayor Shanker but

930
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,240
we do have current staff that reports to

931
00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:28,710
family doing not

932
00:44:28,720 --> 00:44:31,559
right I just yeah I mean that's that's

933
00:44:31,559 --> 00:44:33,280
something we can do I mean you know

934
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:34,800
there something we can put in here in

935
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,839
event of a conflict a different

936
00:44:36,839 --> 00:44:38,839
department head absolutely that's all

937
00:44:38,839 --> 00:44:41,559
I'm looking for there that's an

938
00:44:41,559 --> 00:44:47,520
easy councilor Camp uh Shankar um so in

939
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,640
the definitions it says complaint what

940
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,920
it is informal complaint shall made a

941
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:55,960
complaint communicated informally to

942
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:57,680
Municipal staff or

943
00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:59,200
specific

944
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,240
department and then a formal complaint

945
00:45:02,240 --> 00:45:05,760
it's submitted on this tracking form so

946
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,040
would the the process start with someone

947
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,319
being able to say their informal

948
00:45:11,319 --> 00:45:13,559
complaint and if that's not dealt with

949
00:45:13,559 --> 00:45:18,030
properly they would go to the form

950
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,119
thenal would

951
00:45:20,119 --> 00:45:22,960
be call said calling in and saying that

952
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,640
Garden is not weed take that as being an

953
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:27,640
inform formal complaint or um there's a

954
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,000
pole outside my house that needs to be

955
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,559
filled inal point if it's

956
00:45:32,559 --> 00:45:35,040
so you know it's been recorded three or

957
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,400
four times and the individual doesn't

958
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,440
feel like it's being resolved then we

959
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,359
would recommend a formal complaint and

960
00:45:41,359 --> 00:45:43,040
it is put on the form and then there's

961
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:44,680
more of a process

962
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,760
involved just to put out there we we've

963
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,640
never really had anything really rise to

964
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,280
that we staff are quite good to deal

965
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,319
with our complaint informally um but it

966
00:45:55,319 --> 00:45:58,319
is good practice pass

967
00:45:58,319 --> 00:46:01,480
just in Cas oh I'm not not quite

968
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:05,920
done um so it says in this document that

969
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,240
all complainants will be treated with

970
00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:10,800
respect and will not receive adverse

971
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:14,880
treatment or any form of reprisal so if

972
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,200
we're going to be saying that then we

973
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:23,990
need to be meaning that it's just I

974
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:29,190
ready Ela

975
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,440
I first of all

976
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,079
um we have enough complaints that we

977
00:46:35,079 --> 00:46:37,760
hear on a regular basis as

978
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:42,160
Council um we we weren't

979
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,200
elected to be a complaint

980
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,280
board around this table we were elected

981
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,200
to make policies and

982
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:57,200

983
00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:02,790
and we have enough on our plate

984
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,280

absolutely when we need to be informed

992
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,400
we don't need to know that there's a

993
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,599
pole that hasn't been filled in two

994
00:47:25,599 --> 00:47:27,839

00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:33,720
all of our

997
00:47:33,720 --> 00:47:38,119
complaints thank you thank you Council

998
00:47:38,119 --> 00:47:40,280
bton thank you mayor Shanker I just

999
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,119
wanted to uh comment on a couple things

1000
00:47:43,119 --> 00:47:46,800
that you said and Justin said over there

1001
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:48,680
and

1002
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,240
actually coun Burton touched on it as

1003
00:47:51,240 --> 00:47:53,359
well

1004
00:47:53,359 --> 00:47:57,280
um in the time that I've been here which

1005
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,880
I know a couple of you hate me to say

1006
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:04,640
but staff has been well able to look

1007
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,800
after the complaints that have come our

1008
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,920
way well aable we are not and we would

1009
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:15,440
never be a wash in complaints here these

1010
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:19,119
are the very odd exceptions that might

1011
00:48:19,119 --> 00:48:21,319
rise to a

1012
00:48:21,319 --> 00:48:24,839
council a couple of times during a term

1013
00:48:24,839 --> 00:48:27,119
in my expectations

1014
00:48:27,119 --> 00:48:30,000
and as to counselor Burton's comments

1015
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,359
about being here all night we used to

1016
00:48:34,359 --> 00:48:38,480
meet four times a month we meet two now

1017
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:43,240
we're not short of time to be meeting so

1018
00:48:43,240 --> 00:48:46,160
um being a washing complaints it's just

1019
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:47,760
not going to happen our staff is quite

1020
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:51,400
capable of handing the vast majority

1021
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:54,480
this would be an

1022
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,240
extremely unusual situation where it

1023
00:48:57,240 --> 00:48:59,799
would come to Council in

1024
00:48:59,799 --> 00:49:05,069

Miller and Deputy clerk Caitlyn mallerie

1047
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,000
the recommendation reads that Council

receive the draft Municipal asset naming

1049
00:50:12,559 --> 00:50:14,520

you following discussions of upcoming

1058
00:50:37,559 --> 00:50:40,200
meeting commities I felt it was a good

1059
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:42,440
time to bring forward any Poli C Council

1060
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,359
to help guide coun staff with a fair and

1061
00:50:45,359 --> 00:50:48,000
consistent process for ning any assets

1062
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,559
SCH assets that may come up as I st

1063
00:50:50,559 --> 00:50:52,000
previously the policy working the group

1064
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,480
consisting of mar sh care counselors

1065
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,079
kiry and M met on October 2nd and they

1066
00:50:56,079 --> 00:50:59,480
also reviewed this draft report um so

1067
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,119
the policy would provide the

1068
00:51:01,119 --> 00:51:03,920
establishment of naming Reserve list

1069
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,319
this would be a place to uh keep all

1070
00:51:07,319 --> 00:51:09,520
names that are that are brought forward

1071
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:11,920
during naming opportunities living

1072
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,839
document that as BL commes arve we TR to

1073
00:51:14,839 --> 00:51:16,160
councel to take

1074
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,640
from um it would set the procedure for

1075
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,480
gaining Municipal facilities and as well

1076
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:23,119
it provides clear guidance to council

1077
00:51:23,119 --> 00:51:24,799
staff and the public for naming of

1078
00:51:24,799 --> 00:51:27,200
facilities of the town of Prescott

1079
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,960
and the form which is attached to the

1080
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:30,799
report uh would only be made available

1081
00:51:30,799 --> 00:51:32,359
when Council decides there are naming

1082
00:51:32,359 --> 00:51:33,680
opportunities

1083
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,599
foral

1084
00:51:36,599 --> 00:51:39,960
assets the policy outlines naming

1085
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,200
criteria for the assets it explains

1086
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:43,760
what's considered an asset and touches

1087
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,119
upon the renaming of

1088
00:51:46,119 --> 00:51:48,400
asset as I said previously the naming

1089
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,359
reserved list would track all submitted

1090
00:51:50,359 --> 00:51:52,960
suggestions um that meet the listed

1091
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,880
criteria that are in the policy and

1092
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,680
meing opport are to be identified by

1093
00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,599
Council and on naming anding of

1094
00:51:59,599 --> 00:52:02,480
Municipal assets are to be approved by

1095
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,799
Council um it is suggested that this

1096
00:52:04,799 --> 00:52:06,319
policy be reviewed once per term of

1097
00:52:06,319 --> 00:52:09,079
cancel so it'll come back the next time

1098
00:52:09,079 --> 00:52:11,520
and attached to the report is the policy

1099
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,599
including the draft form

1100
00:52:13,599 --> 00:52:16,280
which available will be available online

1101
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:17,960
to submit electronically and can be

1102
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,240
printed out and hanged out in hard copy

1103
00:52:21,240 --> 00:52:24,200
and as a recommendation read the policy

1104
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:25,680
will come back to counc final

1105
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:31,430
consideration next

1106
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,119
thank you m

1107
00:52:33,119 --> 00:52:36,599
famp questions for her counc kir he you

1108
00:52:36,599 --> 00:52:39,880
Mar Shanker uh the only one that I kind

1109
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:43,200
of disagreed with was waiting till the

1110
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,000
person's deceased and I kind of get the

1111
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,200
idea of why that was recommended but at

1112
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:51,920
the same time you know if councelor

1113
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,000
McConnell is 99 years old and we decide

1114
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,760
to name a Street or building after him I

1115
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,319
don't think we have to wait till he's

1116
00:53:01,319 --> 00:53:03,680
deceased do you know what I mean I just

1117
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,760
feel like that might it

1118
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,319
might you know I think uh the deceased

1119
00:53:10,319 --> 00:53:12,640
part I know why it's there but I feel

1120
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,920
like if we ever had to go back and

1121
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:18,000
change something then we would change it

1122
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,520
uh but I just feel like you know when we

1123
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,119
named the Leo boan Community Center he

1124
00:53:23,119 --> 00:53:26,640
was still alive the elae chartran

1125
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,520
that was a little bit different uh but I

1126
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,839
just feel like waiting till somebody's

1127
00:53:32,839 --> 00:53:36,240
deceased is kind doesn't give them that

1128
00:53:36,240 --> 00:53:38,480
moment of Celebration to acknowledge the

1129
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,599
work or the impact they've had on the

1130
00:53:40,599 --> 00:53:43,319
community so that's that's the only one

1131
00:53:43,319 --> 00:53:44,599
kind of for me

1132
00:53:44,599 --> 00:53:48,400
that's is that under prominent citizens

1133
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:52,200
being relased or both and Council right

1134
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,200
it could be I think it's I know it's

1135
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:58,400
only called out for them to here but it

1136
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,119
could be really applied if you thought

1137
00:54:00,119 --> 00:54:03,400
about it could be applied to anybody in

1138
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,319
theory right I mean you could take

1139
00:54:06,319 --> 00:54:10,559
a a monetary donation and name something

1140
00:54:10,559 --> 00:54:12,680
after somebody and then 10 years from

1141
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,040
now that person could be in the negative

1142
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,880
Spotlight and you would want to rename

1143
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,280
it because of that also right so just

1144
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:22,720
kind of you know if that's what we're

1145
00:54:22,720 --> 00:54:24,480
worried

1146
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:28,119
about then maybe you know we don't name

1147
00:54:28,119 --> 00:54:29,720
anything after people if we really want

1148
00:54:29,720 --> 00:54:32,390
to be

1149
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,559
safe Council Burton thank you I just

1150
00:54:35,559 --> 00:54:37,960
want to know what the the train of

1151
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,480
thought about the former elected members

1152
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,079
of council like the deceased same as the

1153
00:54:43,079 --> 00:54:46,440
kind of on the same uh line as councilor

1154
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:48,640
Kirkby was saying what's the train of

1155
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:52,000
thought like like why do they have to be

1156
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,040
deceased

1157
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:58,119
and to me I just take right out of there

1158
00:54:58,119 --> 00:54:59,359
and not

1159
00:54:59,359 --> 00:55:03,359
name anything after like former elected

1160
00:55:03,359 --> 00:55:05,960
members of council scratch that whole

1161
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,200
line yeah I would just scratch that

1162
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,839
whole line really we do have some past

1163
00:55:11,839 --> 00:55:15,559
prominent uh Council officials right

1164
00:55:15,559 --> 00:55:17,440
like Don Don irvan was one that was

1165
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,160
mentioned a few times a lot for this

1166
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:23,720
town right and and Sandra La too yes I

1167
00:55:23,720 --> 00:55:26,079
mean going back further than that I I

1168
00:55:26,079 --> 00:55:29,799
don't recollect anyone past

1169
00:55:29,799 --> 00:55:33,280
Onan even the pictures they're

1170
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:37,599
G oh yeah Pat Kingston yes but so I mean

1171
00:55:37,599 --> 00:55:39,799
we we have done it right yeah I think

1172
00:55:39,799 --> 00:55:42,559
we're just trying to avoid

1173
00:55:42,559 --> 00:55:45,280
that Declaration of interest and stuff

1174
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:46,559
like that right like we don't want to

1175
00:55:46,559 --> 00:55:49,760
name it the the Kirk B soccer field or

1176
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:54,640
whatever like that right you I think the

1177
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:57,160
other the other wor if you name

1178
00:55:57,160 --> 00:55:59,920
something and then that person commits a

1179
00:55:59,920 --> 00:56:02,559
crime or something that's kind of the

1180
00:56:02,559 --> 00:56:06,039
okay you know what I mean yeah that one

1181
00:56:06,039 --> 00:56:09,960
okay but I I think too in in my in my

1182
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:14,319
opinion we're in a modern society now

1183
00:56:14,319 --> 00:56:16,680
right we want to keep things mod

1184
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:20,440
modernized know how am I saying that be

1185
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,000
modern and to name

1186
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,880
something like you said Mar Shankar like

1187
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,039
some of the people up here yes we don't

1188
00:56:29,039 --> 00:56:32,520
we know a few of them but we don't know

1189
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,920
90% of those people up there and we need

1190
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,400
to move forward and be Forward Thinking

1191
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,870
people so as a

1192
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,440
council we'll give give everyone else

1193
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:47,079
you're good councelor M first of all I'd

1194
00:56:47,079 --> 00:56:49,200
like to thank councelor Kirkby for his

1195
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,079
kind thoughts on my 99 years over there

1196
00:56:52,079 --> 00:56:54,680
but I'm not as close as some other

1197
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:58,430
members of the council

1198
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:02,039
understand you're I I agree completely

1199
00:57:02,039 --> 00:57:05,359
with everything that he said um I don't

1200
00:57:05,359 --> 00:57:08,000
believe you should have to be dead to be

1201
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,240
acknowledged and again I don't think

1202
00:57:11,240 --> 00:57:13,559
we're we've got a lot of people that

1203
00:57:13,559 --> 00:57:15,640
because I can only think I think of

1204
00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,079
three things that we've named since s

1205
00:57:18,079 --> 00:57:21,280
years so it's not doesn't happen often

1206
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,920
and I know when we name those things

1207
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,039
they picked around there was a lot of

1208
00:57:27,039 --> 00:57:29,160
thought went into it

1209
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:32,799
and but I don't think you have to be you

1210
00:57:32,799 --> 00:57:36,200
shouldn't have to be

1211
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:38,880
G it's nice if you're here and you can

1212
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:40,400
be acknowledged I think what we're

1213
00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,400
trying to do here is just you know make

1214
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,079
up some rules and stuff like that so

1215
00:57:45,079 --> 00:57:47,760
it's a little easier to pick a name I

1216
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,119
think going forward if we have to name

1217
00:57:51,119 --> 00:57:53,400
something I can see us being here till

1218
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:57,520
midnight on that night you know

1219
00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,559
one of those things you never know but

1220
00:57:59,559 --> 00:58:01,480
we can have a policy that we put

1221
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,440
together whether they're deceased or not

1222
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,440
we can we can vote on that or we can

1223
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:09,000
talk about that some more but we you

1224
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:10,400
know we still have two weeks between our

1225
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,079
next meeting we have any ideas or

1226
00:58:13,079 --> 00:58:16,039
suggestions I would emphasize that we

1227
00:58:16,039 --> 00:58:19,640
send it in Miss famp so she

1228
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,640
knows anyone else oh sorry you're back

1229
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:26,640
to you so three shank last one and I

1230
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:28,119
know I mentioned this in the working

1231
00:58:28,119 --> 00:58:30,200
group and I think the reason why I

1232
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,200
requested the deceased going is because

1233
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,880
I'd like that to be removed but I'd also

1234
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,920
like to add I know staff won't be

1235
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,920
comfortable with this but the inclusion

1236
00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:44,480
of staff that could possibly have

1237
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,119
something named after them and it could

1238
00:58:46,119 --> 00:58:49,039
be you know I just think if we don't

1239
00:58:49,039 --> 00:58:50,920
call it out in here it could never

1240
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,640
happen right and I know staff doesn't

1241
00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:57,359
want that but I think if Council decided

1242
00:58:57,359 --> 00:58:59,599
to recognize a staff

1243
00:58:59,599 --> 00:59:04,160
member in a naming policy then so be it

1244
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:05,559
as long as they're alive they can say

1245
00:59:05,559 --> 00:59:07,359
yes or

1246
00:59:07,359 --> 00:59:09,720
no maybe they shouldn't be working at

1247
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:11,760
down at that time

1248
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:14,720
but anyway thank

1249
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:18,680
you just a quick one it does say and I

1250
00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:20,839
think I miss this to be be honest with

1251
00:59:20,839 --> 00:59:24,640
you uh it does say including but not

1252
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:27,039
limited to

1253
00:59:27,039 --> 00:59:29,640
which certainly would include Town staff

1254
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,589
or

1255
00:59:32,599 --> 00:59:35,359
anybody

1256
00:59:35,359 --> 00:59:39,680
really not to catch all phrase right so

1257
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:42,920
yeah the only problem with lists is

1258
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:45,119
they're they're they're they're not

1259
00:59:45,119 --> 00:59:47,400
infinite right they could could just

1260
00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:49,079
have they could be changed in the next

1261
00:59:49,079 --> 00:59:52,039
term okay anyone

1262
00:59:52,039 --> 00:59:54,520
else so I'm going to call the question

1263
00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:57,079
then all in favor

1264
00:59:57,079 --> 01:00:00,670
cared thank

1265
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,789
you

1266
01:00:03,799 --> 01:00:08,549
okay item 124 is Staff report

1267
01:00:08,559 --> 01:00:11,520
76202 Community emergency preparedness

1268
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:16,240
Grant 2024 25 intake uh this report is

1269
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,720
from our Treasurer and CAO Matthew

1270
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:21,160
Armstrong the recommendation read that

1271
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:22,839
Council direct staff to submit an

1272
01:00:22,839 --> 01:00:24,680
application for the community emergency

1273
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:26,520
preparedness Grant

1274
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,960
2024 25 intake in the amount of $50,000

1275
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,520
as outlined in staff report

1276
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:34,079
76-

1277
01:00:34,079 --> 01:00:37,119
2024 mover and secondary for discussion

1278
01:00:37,119 --> 01:00:39,720
is councelor lock councelor McConnell

1279
01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:42,039
Matthew the floor is

1280
01:00:42,039 --> 01:00:46,119
yours so this is probably reminiscent of

1281
01:00:46,119 --> 01:00:48,079
a previous report that we brought last

1282
01:00:48,079 --> 01:00:50,760
year and in

1283
01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,440
2324 the first intake of of this

1284
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:55,240
particular Grant there were 113

1285
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:56,440
applications

1286
01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:58,799
approved as part of that initial intake

1287
01:00:58,799 --> 01:01:01,319
and now they're opening up again for

1288
01:01:01,319 --> 01:01:02,799
another intake and I believe there's one

1289
01:01:02,799 --> 01:01:05,280
more intake for 2526 that will come out

1290
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:08,440
next year so going through uh really

1291
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,359
it's to help communities be prepared for

1292
01:01:11,359 --> 01:01:14,480
emergencies and what we identified in

1293
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,440
last year is outfitting the Leo

1294
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:19,400
Community uh Community Center as a

1295
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,599
emergency shelter so that includes uh

1296
01:01:22,599 --> 01:01:25,920
preparing it so that it can accept

1297
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,839
mobile generator uh to be able to uh run

1298
01:01:28,839 --> 01:01:32,200
if the there is no electricity and then

1299
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,280
also outfitting it with uh cops blankets

1300
01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:38,160
ory supplies on hand so that uh in the

1301
01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:40,039
event that we have to evacuate a certain

1302
01:01:40,039 --> 01:01:42,480
number of people or a certain portion of

1303
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:45,400
town that we be able to uh take them

1304
01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:49,200
right the community center so U really

1305
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,000
that's what it's based on again uh the

1306
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,880
one thing that we did remove is just the

1307
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:54,960
basic training uh we have budget for

1308
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:57,720
that in the oper AAL budget and so

1309
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,039
really it's just focusing on creating

1310
01:02:00,039 --> 01:02:02,799
that uh preparedness for the venue to be

1311
01:02:02,799 --> 01:02:06,079
used as an emergency evacuation Center

1312
01:02:06,079 --> 01:02:09,599
um nothing more than that really no

1313
01:02:09,599 --> 01:02:12,039
other changes um and it's just seeking

1314
01:02:12,039 --> 01:02:16,039
to uh submit that Grant under the

1315
01:02:16,039 --> 01:02:19,880
same kind of context once again yes

1316
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,960
remember that questions from Mr

1317
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,480
Armstrong councelor Campbell you mayor

1318
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:27,000
Shanker I'm just curious to know if they

1319
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:30,599
told you why at all that we didn't get

1320
01:02:30,599 --> 01:02:33,720
it they did not um other than that there

1321
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:37,520
was a lot of applications and uh they

1322
01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:40,440
did not offer any response in terms of

1323
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,720
uh information we did go through um a

1324
01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:45,839
number of the other to see what was

1325
01:02:45,839 --> 01:02:48,200
supported and what wasn't um this seemed

1326
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,599
to fit well within it but at the same

1327
01:02:50,599 --> 01:02:53,240
time um we understand that there's only

1328
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:55,160
a limited I believe it's $5 million a

1329
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:57,599
year uh that is going through the Grant

1330
01:02:57,599 --> 01:03:01,760
and there's over 400 municipalities so

1331
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:04,960
yeah I just wonder if it would be a good

1332
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:06,880
idea to add something a little different

1333
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:08,400
in case they just thought well we're not

1334
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,640
going to fund that that's that's not a

1335
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:13,880
good idea I don't know if we could add

1336
01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:15,799
anything a little bit different or just

1337
01:03:15,799 --> 01:03:19,599
try again so my suggestion is try again

1338
01:03:19,599 --> 01:03:22,160
if it doesn't work then uh certainly

1339
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:24,559
taking a look at what they funded this

1340
01:03:24,559 --> 01:03:26,240
time and then going through that to

1341
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,559
determine um if there's something more

1342
01:03:28,559 --> 01:03:30,279
or different that we should apply for in

1343
01:03:30,279 --> 01:03:34,839
the the third round okay thank thank

1344
01:03:34,839 --> 01:03:38,799
you through you m Shanker Matthew could

1345
01:03:38,799 --> 01:03:41,240
uh I'm thinking of an ice storm so you

1346
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:43,839
got the generator there is the Leo Bo

1347
01:03:43,839 --> 01:03:46,920
Community Center in a position to be

1348
01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:49,400
used in the winter to create heat enough

1349
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:51,880
heat to House people if there was an ice

1350
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:55,000
storm yeah so there's the stand heaters

1351
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:58,079
that that are there and and pickle balls

1352
01:03:58,079 --> 01:04:01,359
play through to Wi currently um really

1353
01:04:01,359 --> 01:04:03,400
one of the things that we would do and I

1354
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,119
can't remember who did or not last year

1355
01:04:05,119 --> 01:04:07,160
but actually just turn the heat shields

1356
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,400
away from he stands into the center so

1357
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,119
that's one way that able to do that also

1358
01:04:13,119 --> 01:04:15,880
bringing in large industrial heaters uh

1359
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,760
would be able to to do that as well and

1360
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:20,680
then one more question if you don't mind

1361
01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:22,920
through you Mar Shankar Matthew let's

1362
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:24,960
say there's a forest fire up north and

1363
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:26,279
we take

1364
01:04:26,279 --> 01:04:28,279
residents from the north into the Leo

1365
01:04:28,279 --> 01:04:31,599
boan Community Center is there

1366
01:04:31,599 --> 01:04:35,279
compensation provided to the town for

1367
01:04:35,279 --> 01:04:37,760
each resident that's brought into the

1368
01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,440
Leo boen Community Center generally yes

1369
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:43,119
and so once in a while depending on the

1370
01:04:43,119 --> 01:04:45,400
the rate of forest fires in the the

1371
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:47,640
northern part of the province um they

1372
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:49,640
will put out a Clea for asking

1373
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:53,079
municipalities to uh to volunteer for

1374
01:04:53,079 --> 01:04:55,160
that and there is a reimbursement

1375
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:58,039
process uh that that's attached to that

1376
01:04:58,039 --> 01:05:00,079
uh we haven't had it in the last two

1377
01:05:00,079 --> 01:05:03,400
years um what they have done is equipped

1378
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:06,520
some of the larger more Northern

1379
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:08,960
municipalities with uh with equipment to

1380
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,520
be able to support those and so now they

1381
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:13,799
have a certain base to be able to work

1382
01:05:13,799 --> 01:05:15,599
with but if they go beyond that then

1383
01:05:15,599 --> 01:05:18,240
they ask for a general uh support from

1384
01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:20,240
from all

1385
01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:22,039
municipalities because I could imagine

1386
01:05:22,039 --> 01:05:24,920
there would be some cost to housing IE

1387
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,559
food water

1388
01:05:26,559 --> 01:05:28,920
right that the town would have to if

1389
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:30,599
it's outside of town then then

1390
01:05:30,599 --> 01:05:32,559
absolutely when we're supporting those

1391
01:05:32,559 --> 01:05:34,079
Norman communities then it's certainly

1392
01:05:34,079 --> 01:05:37,319
they reimburse if it's for doing an

1393
01:05:37,319 --> 01:05:39,240
emergency within the the town borders

1394
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,960
then then certainly a

1395
01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:45,400
first amount that's equivalent to 3% of

1396
01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:47,920
your property tax intake is adored by

1397
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:51,039
the town and then amounts after that uh

1398
01:05:51,039 --> 01:05:54,119
is supported by the

1399
01:05:54,119 --> 01:05:58,160
profits last one okay uh and then as far

1400
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:01,240
as the accessible uh washroom I know

1401
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,319
that we had talked about transferring

1402
01:06:03,319 --> 01:06:07,559
the old first aid room down there to be

1403
01:06:07,559 --> 01:06:11,039
accessible are is that in process or

1404
01:06:11,039 --> 01:06:14,160
would this money could maybe be used I

1405
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:15,720
don't think we could use it necessarily

1406
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,559
for that we do

1407
01:06:17,559 --> 01:06:19,880
have an idea that we' like to bring

1408
01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:21,160
forward to council at the next meeting

1409
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:23,160
there is uh Recreation funding for

1410
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:25,880
rehabilitation of sites and we have a

1411
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,279
few ideas of what we could uh do at the

1412
01:06:28,279 --> 01:06:30,680
real board Community Center and one of

1413
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:34,039
those is our biggest issue is that the

1414
01:06:34,039 --> 01:06:36,680
uh waste pipe is much deeper under the

1415
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:37,960
concrete than we thought it was going to

1416
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:42,640
be so uh that our original estimate is

1417
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:45,400
shy of of what it's going to actually so

1418
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:47,240
we're looking at other options in terms

1419
01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:49,319
of being able to support uh an

1420
01:06:49,319 --> 01:06:51,319
accessible washroom I don't think this

1421
01:06:51,319 --> 01:06:53,279
would necessarily be the the Avenue but

1422
01:06:53,279 --> 01:06:54,799
I think there are a couple of other

1423
01:06:54,799 --> 01:06:57,440
avenues that we explore perfect thank

1424
01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:00,160
you thank you

1425
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:03,000
Council thank you mayor shanar um

1426
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,839
storage I think you mentioned the last

1427
01:07:05,839 --> 01:07:08,880
time we discussed this last year that

1428
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:13,319
these and blankets and what all um

1429
01:07:13,319 --> 01:07:15,640
storage could be a bit of a problem down

1430
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:18,400
there you talked about possibly a

1431
01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:19,799
container or

1432
01:07:19,799 --> 01:07:22,359
something uh is that part of this I

1433
01:07:22,359 --> 01:07:25,400
didn't see it anywhere so part of that

1434
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:27,279
um the five I think there was about

1435
01:07:27,279 --> 01:07:30,559
5,000 or 2500 that we uh moved and

1436
01:07:30,559 --> 01:07:33,559
removed from the basic training and we

1437
01:07:33,559 --> 01:07:36,200
could be able to use part of that a a

1438
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:37,799
container the most recent container we

1439
01:07:37,799 --> 01:07:40,799
bought I think was 5500 or 6,000 and

1440
01:07:40,799 --> 01:07:42,400
absolutely I think that's could

1441
01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:43,680
absolutely be something that we'd be

1442
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:46,200
able to support we would also make it so

1443
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:49,160
that uh if Augusta or cardal need it

1444
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:51,640
that it is then transportable by just

1445
01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:53,079
putting it on a forklift on the back of

1446
01:07:53,079 --> 01:07:55,240
a truck and then moving it along so so

1447
01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:57,920
yeah uh in that we would include the

1448
01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,319
storage to be able to to move it around

1449
01:08:00,319 --> 01:08:02,400
to what we need

1450
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:05,680
to yeah um do you really think though

1451
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:10,319
that a steel storage container

1452
01:08:10,319 --> 01:08:14,920
is going to prevent dampness or some of

1453
01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:18,640
these blankets things like that uh I

1454
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:20,239
don't want to sweep with the D blanket

1455
01:08:20,239 --> 01:08:22,480
Bey honest with you so some of the

1456
01:08:22,480 --> 01:08:24,120
things like the blankets and whatnot we

1457
01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:25,960
would find places like underneath the

1458
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:28,880
stands that sort of thing and then uh

1459
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:31,319
put them in something that's going to be

1460
01:08:31,319 --> 01:08:34,480
uh keeping it from uh load and damage

1461
01:08:34,480 --> 01:08:36,400
anything like that so anything that does

1462
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:38,960
have the ability to have um you know

1463
01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:40,600
that sort of issue uh where it could be

1464
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:42,640
eaten away or that sort of thing then

1465
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,880
definitely would make other arrangements

1466
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:46,719
the the Cs tend to be a little bit more

1467
01:08:46,719 --> 01:08:48,520
collapsible those types of things and

1468
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:51,359
then you're able to slip on the cover so

1469
01:08:51,359 --> 01:08:54,040
again it's I'm not saying that we would

1470
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,520
necessarily buy the container but it is

1471
01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:58,640
an option if we wanted to to be able to

1472
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:00,880
say this is kind of how we would be able

1473
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:06,990
to move around if we had to okay thank

1474
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:10,400
you all right

1475
01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:15,600
s yeah so sharing between the

1476
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:18,480
municipalities this is only us that is

1477
01:09:18,480 --> 01:09:21,960
applying for this money correct so um so

1478
01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:24,440
we would it would only be in case of

1479
01:09:24,440 --> 01:09:28,040
emergency so so let's say um you know

1480
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:29,759
something happened in Spencerville and

1481
01:09:29,759 --> 01:09:32,359
they they needed CS that sort of thing

1482
01:09:32,359 --> 01:09:34,719
then certainly I think you know they

1483
01:09:34,719 --> 01:09:36,400
would put out a general plea to say does

1484
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:37,640
anyone have anything we can help and

1485
01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:39,640
support and in which case we take to

1486
01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:40,960
there but our first and foremost

1487
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:43,520
priority would be president pra and

1488
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:46,560
helping out where we are able to so

1489
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:49,440
obviously if these units were used by

1490
01:09:49,440 --> 01:09:52,000
any neighboring Township the neighboring

1491
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:54,480
Township would be on the hook to I

1492
01:09:54,480 --> 01:09:56,120
either replace

1493
01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:58,040
or uh

1494
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:01,520
clean the items before The Returned

1495
01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:03,640
absolutely we expect it to be returned

1496
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:06,600
in the same condition that it's went out

1497
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:11,189
and if it's not then replaced at that

1498
01:10:11,199 --> 01:10:14,520
time reson for you that's

1499
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,280
good all

1500
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:20,400
right okay so

1501
01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:23,320
um I won't read the question again

1502
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,000
because it's just the same as one last

1503
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,080
year

1504
01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,760
we have a move in second or all in favor

1505
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,199
carried thank

1506
01:10:31,199 --> 01:10:35,679
you okay the I the next one which is our

1507
01:10:35,679 --> 01:10:39,920
last one is Staff report 77-20 24 the

1508
01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:43,440
housing enabling core servicing stream

1509
01:10:43,440 --> 01:10:44,520
join

1510
01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:47,520
application support is from our CAO and

1511
01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:49,000
Treasurer Matthew Armstrong the

1512
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,320
recommendation reads that Council direct

1513
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,280
staff to submit a joint application with

1514
01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:55,679
adjusted Township for the house housing

1515
01:10:55,679 --> 01:10:58,760
enabling core servicing stream for road

1516
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:00,600
infrastructure as outlined in staff

1517
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:01,640
report

1518
01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:05,159
77- 2024 mover and secondary for

1519
01:11:05,159 --> 01:11:07,520
discussion councelor Burton councelor

1520
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,760
Lockett Matthew the floor is yours thank

1521
01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:13,239
you very much Mr so this was uh

1522
01:11:13,239 --> 01:11:16,159
announced recently it differs from the

1523
01:11:16,159 --> 01:11:20,320
how enabling water system infrastructure

1524
01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:22,760
and that particular application will be

1525
01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:25,360
presenting a report at our next meting

1526
01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:27,560
uh to discuss that application but this

1527
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:31,880
is really focused on Bridges and Roads

1528
01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:35,120
and how it could possibly uh enable

1529
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:37,560
housing so if you remember kind of in

1530
01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:40,320
our strategic plan or in our well

1531
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:41,920
strategic plan is very focused on

1532
01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:44,280
housing our official plan already

1533
01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,120
envisioned a road uh running from

1534
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:50,360
industrial over to safaya and eventually

1535
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,159
over into aesta Township as well as the

1536
01:11:53,159 --> 01:11:55,800
joint need study talked about running

1537
01:11:55,800 --> 01:12:00,239
along that area as well so really this

1538
01:12:00,239 --> 01:12:03,000
came along uh Augusta is interested in

1539
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:04,960
submitting an application they invited

1540
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:08,320
us if we would like to uh to to tag

1541
01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:10,520
along uh on their application they would

1542
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:12,920
be the primary we would be a supporter

1543
01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:16,040
of it and and really it's trying to

1544
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,719
expand their network uh between safia

1545
01:12:18,719 --> 01:12:21,760
and Merin Lane and this seemed to fit

1546
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,639
quite well in um you know what we talked

1547
01:12:24,639 --> 01:12:27,440
about St strategic standpoint as well as

1548
01:12:27,440 --> 01:12:32,440
our connections into to austa so um with

1549
01:12:32,440 --> 01:12:34,120
that we we had the engineers kind of

1550
01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:36,239
take a look to say if we're not talking

1551
01:12:36,239 --> 01:12:38,360
about water and sewer or anything else

1552
01:12:38,360 --> 01:12:40,639
we're just talking about uh kind of the

1553
01:12:40,639 --> 01:12:44,040
road then uh to bring it from industrial

1554
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:47,880
across the the northern uh side of next

1555
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:50,000
polymers and then down by the Operation

1556
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:52,199
Center um we're talking somewhere in the

1557
01:12:52,199 --> 01:12:54,600
million dollar range and that's

1558
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:56,880
basically to to clear it from where it

1559
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,040
is today there's not a lot of tree

1560
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:00,800
removal things like that if you remember

1561
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:04,920
it's a dirt path as it is today so and

1562
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:06,679
really runs pretty much exactly where

1563
01:13:06,679 --> 01:13:08,960
the road right way is and so You' be

1564
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:10,560
kind of clearing that air putting your

1565
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:13,239
granular A and B down as well as two

1566
01:13:13,239 --> 01:13:17,520
this of B sh uh really the the overall

1567
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:19,320
width will be 6 and half meters plus a

1568
01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:22,560
meter on either side for a shoulder and

1569
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:24,320
then from a stormline management

1570
01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,560
perspective there would be dites along

1571
01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:31,040
both sides so um you know a lot more of

1572
01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:34,520
a a road as opposed to a street is what

1573
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:36,639
we would be looking at and then it also

1574
01:13:36,639 --> 01:13:38,520
provides another way to get to the

1575
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:41,239
semour Recreation Complex as opposed to

1576
01:13:41,239 --> 01:13:43,639
using Church shells so um we thought it

1577
01:13:43,639 --> 01:13:46,560
was a good fit um as I mentioned Augusta

1578
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:50,080
is the lead uh on the location and

1579
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:51,159
thought that this might be an

1580
01:13:51,159 --> 01:13:53,320
opportunity for us to to take along with

1581
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:56,719
them and be able to uh really look at

1582
01:13:56,719 --> 01:14:00,199
one of those roads that we've envisioned

1583
01:14:00,199 --> 01:14:02,480
uh being expanded in the future and this

1584
01:14:02,480 --> 01:14:04,040
actually provides us an opportunity to

1585
01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:06,790
do

1586
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:10,000
that very good thank you Mr Armstrong

1587
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:12,840
any questions for Mr

1588
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:17,239
armr all right oh almost got through I'm

1589
01:14:17,239 --> 01:14:20,639
always here for you sir you Matthew what

1590
01:14:20,639 --> 01:14:22,760
is the cost difference uh because I

1591
01:14:22,760 --> 01:14:25,520
imagine that shoulder is not paved that

1592
01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:27,320
shoulder would be paav yes that shoulder

1593
01:14:27,320 --> 01:14:29,960
would be paav that meter okay and then I

1594
01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:31,920
guess my question is I know we don't

1595
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,040
want to add sewer and water due to the

1596
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,639
cost but lighting Street lighting would

1597
01:14:37,639 --> 01:14:40,480
that not that couldn't fall under this

1598
01:14:40,480 --> 01:14:44,360
request or

1599
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:47,159
the it didn't specifically say Street

1600
01:14:47,159 --> 01:14:50,639
Lighting in the uh information now what

1601
01:14:50,639 --> 01:14:53,639
we do know is there's already RSL poles

1602
01:14:53,639 --> 01:14:55,719
that run from Industrial

1603
01:14:55,719 --> 01:14:58,679
uh across the back of of pretty much

1604
01:14:58,679 --> 01:15:00,360
right in the right way that that we're

1605
01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:02,719
talking about and so adding Street

1606
01:15:02,719 --> 01:15:05,000
linting would be relatively simple um

1607
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:06,400
because if we're not adding polls we

1608
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:07,440
would just use the polls that are

1609
01:15:07,440 --> 01:15:10,320
already there that sort of thing then um

1610
01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:12,920
and certainly I think it's we could

1611
01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:14,239
perhaps include as part of the

1612
01:15:14,239 --> 01:15:16,960
contingency um that that we have there

1613
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:18,400
um but as soon as we started adding

1614
01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:19,960
polls things like that then that number

1615
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:22,760
grows exponentially so we're trying to

1616
01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,239
to keep it at a reasonable level and it

1617
01:15:25,239 --> 01:15:27,920
doesn't preclude Water and Sewer uh

1618
01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:29,960
being under those roads it's just that

1619
01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:33,080
this grant would not fall so it was

1620
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:36,280
strictly road infrastructure and and

1621
01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:38,040
that's where we we kind of looked at

1622
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:39,440
from that perspective and there's

1623
01:15:39,440 --> 01:15:42,120
there's nothing to say that couldn't

1624
01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,120
kind of put a half meter on one side two

1625
01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,280
meters on the other uh from a shoulder

1626
01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:48,320
perspective to be able to then provide

1627
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:50,360
the multi-use path those types of things

1628
01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:53,840
but overall 8 and 1/2 meter WID and then

1629
01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:56,320
we can work with it that so the 8 and a

1630
01:15:56,320 --> 01:15:59,159
half meter is paved okay yeah perfect

1631
01:15:59,159 --> 01:16:00,520
thank

1632
01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:04,719
you Campbell Shar um not knowing about

1633
01:16:04,719 --> 01:16:06,239
roads do we have to do any kind of

1634
01:16:06,239 --> 01:16:08,080
environmental assessment that there

1635
01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:10,159
absolutely anytime you build a road uh

1636
01:16:10,159 --> 01:16:11,719
it's you have to do environmental

1637
01:16:11,719 --> 01:16:15,800
assessment um and then uh when depending

1638
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:17,760
on the materials that you're taking out

1639

01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:25,560
grant um it's not something that's

1642
01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:28,000
permitted in there again it' be covered

1643
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:32,120
by the 125,000 but in terms of the uh

1644
01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:33,840
actual

1645
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:36,199
um studies and things like that then

1651
01:16:49,199 --> 01:16:50,679

1655
01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:02,639
that you build even when we when we

1656
01:17:02,639 --> 01:17:04,600
