[1:10] We're going to put on standby, but nothing yet. They had a couple days that yes is to fill in, but it wasn't very good days. Most of my people's. So far, no, but we are on standby, so that you go. Absolutely. Yeah.

[1:29] Yeah,

[1:45] so I worked with Shane in the department.

[1:48] Oh, all right.

[1:49] I think he moved his tiny tin by now.

[1:50] Right.

[1:51] He's the electrician.

[1:52] You were electrician at 100 turns.

[1:54] That was a computer day.

[1:55] Oh, computer day.

[1:56] OK.

[1:56] I didn't see it.

[1:57] Your name got frequently only because of Shane

[2:01] and then the distance.

[2:02] So it's all political.

[2:03] It's the same bad thing about me.

[2:05] It's all political.

[2:05] Just the name reads the bell.

[2:07] That's OK.

[2:08] OK.

[2:08] I think it's that was on the back wall.

[2:11] That was in the warehouse.

[2:13] OK.

[2:14] It's 4 o'clock.

[2:15] So what did you do?

[2:16] We did so we had plenty of time and we're going to start this off, just to keep the

[2:29] video

[2:29] for us, the new

[2:48] councils, pretty much every city council meeting there, and just want

[2:52] to answer questions, kind of present what we are, what we've been doing over the past about

[2:58] a year in memory of our counties, and then some of the future outlook of what we'd like

[3:02] to do, and so we're in the power company, we believe strongly that we can make energy 10 times

[3:08] cheaper and then do a 10 times cheaper again.

[3:10] I want to match pretty small modular reactors and power either individual entities or put it onto the grid.

[3:17] And again, just make power crazy cheap. The entirety of your energy needs as a human being can be about as big of the dum-dum-sucker and uranium.

[3:26] And so uranium is extremely energy dense. We love coal, we love natural gas. Like we let all the things that produce power put it on the grid, but our specialty is new to the power.

[3:36] So my past I grew up in Farrin from every county, worked at the Naval Lincoln Laboratory

[3:41] enough to stay in New York for several years as a nuclear engineer, and we prototyped

[3:45] the reactors for several years in the aircraft carriers.

[3:48] So the stuff I worked on because of the government, the bureaucracy will be in aircraft carriers

[3:52] like ten years from now, but I mean they're super safe and super reliable so they want to

[3:56] make sure they work out the kids out of them.

[3:58] But anyway, that's my background in nuclear, and then I worked at the Hunter Fire

[4:01] our planet as I was talking with Mr. Root here with some of his kids and

[4:05] his family and colleagues, and then we'll go over to our town to try and establish

[4:08] a nuclear industry here in this area. So, I'm going to show a little bit

[4:12] a little video of where we came from, and then we'll talk about again

[4:15] where we're going, and we hope not to take more time than 10 or 15 minutes.

[4:18] You know, but we're here to answer any questions that you may have

[4:21] to introduce ourselves. So, could you want to introduce yourself, sir? This is Harry.

[4:30] Yep.

[4:31] the history it just does hey what's it you see that from yeah so I was recently

[4:43] hired by Bauer to do public affairs so my history in the last the last

[4:46] years and I worked with the state for the legislative level with Speaker the House

[4:50] to the Office of Energy I helped run that office for a good five years health

[4:58] state procure this Santa Fella Energy Lab built that up from the state side

[5:06] from

[5:11] Huntington originally but my dad almost died in the coal mining accident my mom had enough of that and so he moved up to the city.

[5:22] General site support of Valorant, vastly less important than these two.

[5:27] Basically what I do is whatever needs getting done is lately that's been on a following an area around.

[5:32] So try to train him up you know.

[5:59] Well it's showing up there.

[6:30] It's certainly when

[11:29] the reactor is critical, that just moves it is on.

[11:33] I know it would be sometimes like oh the reactor is critical, this is the bad thing.

[11:35] That just means that we're like on stable and good.

[11:40] So yeah, so as we've been over the past a little while and we tend to make like I said hundreds

[11:44] of these things and we love carving every county's on front here, you know, have roots

[11:48] here and yeah, for future plans, I mean, we want to make manufacturing jobs here, I want

[11:54] to be building these reactors.

[11:56] So we keep them at a small enough level that we can manufacture them out of plate steel,

[11:59] right?

[12:00] So you roll a piece of plate into a pressure vessel and weld it.

[12:02] When you get really large, there's only a couple of places in the world that can make

[12:07] those pieces.

[12:08] It's a one to make them like you're infrexed, why not?

[12:10] Right?

[12:11] Some of the parts, actually, if you're familiar with guys' machine, including Utah, we have

[12:15] some parts we need to build.

[12:16] We give the drawings, and you're operating in a nuclear power plant right now.

[12:18] How crazy is that?

[12:20] You know what I mean?

[12:20] That our large small town folks can do it.

[12:22] However, I mean, I have full confidence in our abilities, right, as a small town, as energy

[12:28] development people.

[12:30] We know energy.

[12:31] We know pressure.

[12:31] or we don't pipes and valves and ice

[12:34] radiation controls and all this stuff.

[12:36] That's the reason that we really love

[12:37] carbon and we count these.

[12:39] And so that's kind of what we are,

[12:41] and we want to take too much time

[12:42] about it.

[12:43] That's a few we can answer a few questions

[12:44] and we're happy to stay here.

[12:46] We'll give us a bit about our contact information.

[12:49] And one thing I will say before we get is

[12:52] we've got a lot of city council members

[12:54] come and take a tour of the plant.

[12:55] And we're happy to have you just schedule a day

[12:57] and we're happy to spend a couple hours

[12:59] just walking around the power plant

[13:00] with the next show me everything about it and let me touch you to feel it. It's a little

[13:04] different when you're, you know, in person there. So I was sort of, what questions do you have

[13:07] that we can answer? Now are you looking to expand your operations up here in the current county?

[13:12] Why not? You know, I mean, I think it'd be great. There's land available, right? There's the

[13:17] technical prowess. There's there's no reason that we shouldn't or couldn't, but yeah, I think

[13:23] it makes sense for you and it makes sense for us then to feel like it's you. Right? It makes sense like

[13:28] the more infrastructure we have in one location and one location I mean carbon

[13:32] never counts in here. Econology are the same, we only have our penny

[13:35] recordaries but you know they're real like big-boy things that I know we have

[13:41] actually we've hired about 40 people locally from the community right and I say

[13:46] locally being like a helper of an emery that do a great job for us and yeah so I

[13:54] I don't see any reason why we couldn't spend over the current county.

[13:57] Again, if the community accepts it and they want us here, then we'll have to do anything

[14:01] to add to that.

[14:02] Not just that we're right now, our current expansion plans are just north of the current

[14:08] sector we're on and it's only under the acres, but again, if we're going to be mass-manufacturing

[14:13] hundreds of these reactive noses, we're going to need more space.

[14:16] And so there's a few different options for carbon-county and re-county wherever it makes

[14:21] the most sense where we can find a land where in conversations on a few different fronts

[14:25] there.

[14:26] So I just wanted to also come and give a test of the waters to see what you guys' thoughts

[14:29] were.

[14:30] The community's acceptance level of an industrial product such as ours, partnering with potential

[14:35] other industries and building out, building outside.

[14:39] I think everybody, I mean, unfortunately everybody is afraid of the word nuclear.

[14:46] To me, it's the huge part.

[14:49] I think that's the first thing I went to a couple of things that served on.

[14:54] But once you sit down and explain it to people who explain how, I guess how poor...

[15:00] Safe it is now, Bayes, and how we've improved what we do, how you can, you know, you don't have the rods per say that you, everybody used to hear about and you had to just close up and all these other things. Then I think people would would latch on to it. Yeah, and we've been going, like last two weekends ago, we were in the county fair last week and we were at the international ladies and had hundreds or maybe even thousands of conversations in the right. Just, well, we're residents, right? Talk to them now, answer the questions and generally speaking, everybody was very hot.

[15:30] There was a couple that had concerns, but I didn't really like one person that was against it.

[15:35] A couple came up pretty concerned and then you answered their questions and showed some of the facts of the matter.

[15:41] And they're like, oh, yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

[15:43] What you think about is a GN1 reaction, GN4 reactor.

[15:47] We like to compare that to a computer that used to be as big as this entire floor,

[15:51] that had tons of water cooling and tons of electrical to demand everything.

[15:54] And now you have more compute power into the pocket.

[15:56] And as we rapidly iterate through this hardware and learn and grow and become better at mass manufacturing,

[16:02] they become safer, more reliable, useless resources, and the cost goes down.

[16:06] The quality goes up.

[16:08] So how much, what would I say?

[16:10] How much area can one of your small reactors power out?

[16:14] Yeah, the one that we showed you there is five megawatts, which is about 5,000 times.

[16:18] Our next iteration, and then we'll probably be similar to the final form factor,

[16:22] I will be about 14 feet in diameter, 30 or so feet tall, and that will be 40 megawatts

[16:28] of thermal so that we have about 25 megawatts of lecture, so 25,000 homes.

[16:32] So you need one or two for cars in every campus.

[16:36] And we would like to build these, I mean, on the order of like one week.

[16:42] And after we get like multiple sites, we're going down to, we talk about tick rate,

[16:46] of like the time between going critical on reactors.

[16:49] currently we're about seven months right? We want to try and hit six months for

[16:52] the next one, three or four months for the next one. You know what I mean?

[16:55] And as you build it out it's like there's no reason you can't master any

[16:58] factor. It's just like a forward rager for how customers line up. Yeah that's a

[17:04] great question Mr. Celia. I'm assuming these are all right. Yeah. Is that right?

[17:07] Okay. It's just using names here. We don't. Well kind of we do. You'll hear a lot

[17:14] a lot of different companies will tout that they have, you know, three terawatts of sine

[17:18] MOUs and et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, but they've never actually built a reactor.

[17:23] Are we trying to flip that logic and if you build it, they will come, right?

[17:27] It doesn't matter if, if Terra Power has whatever, 10 gigawatts of power on their books, if we

[17:33] start pumping out reactors and provide that power next week, those are the pieces of people

[17:37] we're not putting in.

[17:38] Right?

[17:39] And so we do have a lot of customers that have a lot of interest, but we don't necessarily

[17:43] they have like, you know, backlogs of tarot lots of power, because that answers your question.

[17:49] Yes, but we have tons of customers that would like to, I mean, in around the electronics

[17:53] that they're putting in diesel generators, I bet they would take a reactor tomorrow,

[17:57] maybe for right? And there's other routes that a lot of people call and say, I want to order

[18:01] a dozen of these, when can I get them? You know what I mean? So, they're ranging from like

[18:05] private entities to government entities on all of your team.

[18:08] I was just in a meeting two days ago with the data center and they have five large natural

[18:15] gas generators.

[18:16] I'm sure that this would be something that they might just have a little bit, right?

[18:21] It's way better or cheaper or faster than well, maybe not right and how faster, but when we

[18:27] start the production, right, it would be, that's the idea is to be faster cheaper than

[18:30] that.

[18:30] And the idea is to, this is the example of bringing customers here to what it looks like and

[18:35] you know, step into our, you know, here's where we can build your custom, whatever,

[18:40] and move it along. So that's kind of the business plan for your operation.

[18:44] Yeah, do you guys want to speak to that? Sorry, I keep answering all the questions.

[18:46] Cool, I haven't asked. That's the thing.

[18:48] Yeah, I've already had a commercial about some of you before

[18:52] past meetings. So there's a question just like why did the

[18:56] business plan or like what are you trying to do in Utah specifically?

[18:58] Yeah, what's your business plan?

[18:59] So the way that the company was founded was that

[19:05] The reason nuclear is expensive today is not necessarily the steel, the graphite, and the

[19:11] concrete.

[19:12] It's the regulation.

[19:13] It's the security.

[19:14] It's the fence line.

[19:15] It's the licensing.

[19:17] And if you have to do that in 100 different times, 100 different locations, and do distributed

[19:22] power, you have to license 100 times.

[19:24] So valoratomics is taking a slightly different approach.

[19:27] We want to build 100 plus reactors in one location, so we have to do that licensing process

[19:33] once.

[19:34] That's part of the regulatory licensing part.

[19:37] Now it's still costs money to build these things, and when you build a really, really big

[19:41] massive nuclear plant, it takes a long time, it's a lot of material, it's a lot of labor

[19:45] you have to source from.

[19:47] So we basically compress that down into a model that we can manufacture in a factory, not

[19:53] have to outsource the construction or the fabrication to other countries we can build it in America.

[19:59] up, we can roll the steel instead of forging it in Japan, putting on a boat, and it takes

[20:04] six weeks to get here.

[20:06] So we can do that.

[20:07] What we'd like to do is, hearing you talk, we can manufacture them fast, build them quickly,

[20:13] and they're already licensed on one fence line that we did at the very, very front, and

[20:17] now we can scale and build that large power site in one location.

[20:21] And really the idea is we build as much power as there is to be, and we're space for until

[20:27] So we run out of one of those two things and then we build another what we call gigasite

[20:31] in a new geography where there's demand or space for it.

[20:35] So everything we're looking at in terms of the next phase of growth for the company

[20:39] is large tracks of land where we have room to expand over the next 10, 15, 20 years and

[20:46] so do our customers.

[20:47] So the idea is we're going to go out, license these facilities, start building reactors,

[20:52] You know, make the reactor the factory, ship it out across the fence, bolt it down and turn it on, and then just do that over and over again until we run out of space.

[21:02] And I think the other thing to mention there is, when it comes to the grid components, right, our customers be co-located with us in that fence line so they aren't drawing from the grid, they're connected to us, they don't need to be drawing from the grid, right?

[21:15] So that's the other thing that we have in that co-location strategy.

[21:19] I'm going to be on the grid.

[21:21] Talk about one more question.

[21:23] Our customers don't need to be drunk.

[21:25] And these guys will meet with you anytime.

[21:28] Also sure.

[21:28] Yeah.

[21:29] It contact information.

[21:31] Sure, Dad.

[21:32] Jason, I thought so.

[21:34] Just look at that.

[21:34] I thought.

[21:35] It worked a long time.

[21:37] He's a lot more handsome than you though.

[21:39] He's your dad.

[21:39] We had one more question.

[21:42] It was a foreign question.

[21:45] We're going over there.

[21:46] Let us know I'm sure you have contact information for some of you here if you have a question and we'd love to put together a tour post you guys

[21:58] Any time you can do it for this month for a tour of your email, yeah, well

[22:07] you know I'm sorry, what was the call for you now?

[22:09] It's a better call.

[22:09] I'll give you a piece, Corey, C-R-Y,

[22:13] $1.00 that's used in Victor, A-L-A-R, Atomix, ATOM, I-C-S, dot com.

[22:24] And it may not be me, but we'll make sure that you're connected with the right folks.

[22:32] That's fine.

[22:34] I think my last comment would be, there probably aren't many places in the United States

[22:39] that are as accustomed to this kind of thing as we are.

[22:46] Our area is dealt with uranium, all that kind of stuff, and so it's just kind of

[22:52] in our, in our genetics, it's, it's, it's, it's right there, it's part of that.

[22:56] Could I ask a question if you all know?

[22:58] Sure. I don't know if we've already asked this.

[23:00] I wondered what it was. Okay.

[23:01] Well, if you talked about geography, let me go ahead.

[23:05] So I'm just curious for the folks that are here.

[23:07] If we were to find project sites that were fed Carby County

[23:11] in this area, would there be support for the project?

[23:15] If it was a process.

[23:16] I was just saying that's in priority.

[23:18] I might support 100 percent.

[23:19] Yeah.

[23:22] We could get some of those tax income tax rates down, and I think it gives us a very

[23:29] room to move us and throw ourselves closer so it helps all our citizens.

[23:35] It's great city might be a little bit complicated.

[23:38] We're looking at thousands of acres, but that's why I'm asking directionally for the

[23:47] My mic was a very aligned with that, it won't one step deeper go, what are your constituents

[23:52] think of this?

[23:53] Do you have any idea how you feel?

[23:54] And maybe you don't know how you feel for it, but again, this one wanted to bring it

[23:56] up and maybe you can start seeing some of the concerns, but do you have a feel for it right

[24:02] now?

[24:02] Do you think that would be a supported activity or industry within the area or there?

[24:08] I think like Grinchard said, I think that it's just people here in nuclear so it's a scary

[24:12] word.

[24:13] And because you think nuclear, you think that we're going to push a button in

[24:16] Obama country, sometimes when I think nuclear. And so I think just education is key.

[24:23] You guys go on to these public advances.

[24:26] Does it make that big?

[24:27] Yeah, I think that's a really good thing.

[24:28] And this is a community once they're educated, is open to things, you know.

[24:33] So education truly is the key to the community support once the community

[24:39] and then embraces it as you've got a friend for life.

[24:45] I know we asked her one question, but if I can ask her,

[24:49] if we were to do like an open town hall,

[24:51] we'll come to that and ask questions.

[24:54] If you want to make transparent and open and honest,

[24:57] and sometimes we'll do it and tell you,

[24:58] we don't know the question answer.

[25:01] But we've had questions of exactly what do you want

[25:03] to do in this area.

[25:06] And it's a little bit flexible of like the business,

[25:08] It's like what industry?

[25:10] But maybe a data center, maybe a refinery,

[25:13] maybe it's something else, so that's the perfect opportunity,

[25:16] so we can get to them.

[25:18] We'll certainly do it somewhere in price, or here,

[25:21] or I know we've talked about it other than using it, but.

[25:23] We have a lot of Torium and a real much bigger system.

[25:26] Oh, yeah, I've done the haul.

[25:30] I know that's all that.

[25:31] Yeah, so four days through yet,

[25:34] can we get something set up?

[25:38] And thank you all, it's nice to meet you.

[25:41] We're happy to hang around or are we going to

[25:43] go over there?

[25:46] There's lots of excited stuff we're going to talk about.

[25:49] Yeah, I have one question.

[25:51] Sorry, is there anything about dogs or animal control?

[25:55] Every time all I've been to there's been something about.

[25:57] Yeah.

[25:58] It's not dogs.

[25:59] It's not dogs.

[26:00] It's surprising.

[26:01] It's surprising.

[26:17] Thank you.

[26:18] Thank you.

[26:19] Thank you.

[26:21] You're welcome.

[26:21] So that's the

[26:46] price of the police has had a lot of trouble this year, part of this month is $837 to $27, and that's per day.

[26:57] There's also a decrease of $82 from this time last year.

[27:03] So that's kind of good. I've done the numbers and it looks like, because we're down to officers, so there's not quite too much of an issue that's impacted.

[27:12] These consist of 9-1-1 calls, 6-1-6, well-ferred checks, and misglendent.

[27:20] Between accidents and traffic related incidents, we've at 61 this month, assaults, threats, or domestic violence,

[27:29] a total of 67 domestic violence, and specifically we've got 120 incidents, and on sexual assault incidents,

[27:38] which is good considering reports that are coming.

[27:41] The Animal Control and Ordnance Enforcement Incidents had 122 child abuse, canner, sectional,

[27:53] sexual abuse or juvenile incidents of total of 25 property crimes, fraud or death incidents

[28:02] And so we've had 77 total traffic stops in the city and 84, which consists of 94 violations and 70 citations.

[28:16] Control substance incidents, total of 21 in price city, suspicious persons, ATLs, or wanted subjects, we've had 71.

[28:28] one. Follow-up investigations. We've had 38 of those. Keep-a-piece calls about 8 meet complainants, 26, phone calls, 62,

[28:44] 28

[28:45] custodial arrests, which are people going to jail, but actually 41. It may have been

[28:52] excited to progress rather than taking a joke.

[28:57] So that's keeping an average of what we were at this time

[29:00] last year, and it's about the same part.

[29:03] So we're getting there on the system,

[29:04] so we'll see one hour an hour.

[29:05] That question you had a few times ago.

[29:10] On the topic of outside the city, a couple of weeks

[29:15] ago, to my 29th, while we didn't assist,

[29:20] we actually done the case that I mentioned

[29:24] I had two houses that we served at the same time they were kind of related.

[29:33] That consisted of six people.

[29:34] We actually had to get the gel band to come down there, home to gel.

[29:38] These carbon was ecstatic, very thankful for the sort of soul.

[29:45] That put a little bit in there, their stuff.

[29:47] I had nothing but positive input place when this year we had a few essence and other now outside of that.

[30:21] And I think what we've done different this year is, even the guys out on patrol did tell

[30:30] If you're not taking priority calls, please come and make your presence normal.

[30:34] And as you've probably seen, we also asked other agencies to come and assist to walk through this.

[30:40] That relationship was working perfectly.

[30:42] And if it's just a bit of time, it's some kind.

[30:44] But ultimately, it's the relationships that we get on big public events like that.

[30:51] I live at one point.

[30:52] I saw four different departments just sitting there talking with residents and talking and visiting.

[30:57] It was great.

[30:58] Yeah.

[31:18] And I made sure that I started that way but yes, we want to make sure we understand it wasn't hurt

[31:28] She didn't know if I should care, remember?

[31:31] That's why she didn't remember.

[31:34] Sorry.

[31:37] That was a big, and there was two at the same time,

[31:43] the guy that went in the river,

[31:44] and the guy that went across the road.

[31:48] Right, those were at the very same time.

[31:50] That's how it turned out.

[31:51] Yeah.

[31:52] That's one to the next.

[31:55] So just the partnership that we have,

[31:57] is actually that was in the river one right here. Thankfully we have a good relationship

[32:04] that I would have drawn to have taken that. Yeah, the college one could have been very

[32:09] very looking critical because of having this day everybody in your car is incredible.

[32:15] Right. So what kind of partnerships do we also help them out? So yes, our two days, we

[32:22] Yeah, right. We just got done with the Pioneer days. That's why we're willing to be part of one care to come help us.

[32:33] Yeah, we've worked in the county care. You've seen our booth out there. We kind of changed it up. I didn't actually request that

[32:41] Sheriff's Command Center this year because we got that grant for the big dam. And you all see that at the park.

[32:47] And as often as we're around the park, they just don't want people sitting in the command center right.

[33:02] And the only other thing I have is requests for more lights at Taurus Hills.

[33:09] Apparently that's some new gathering space at night for the juvenile scope.

[33:12] So, the south, the north most entrance is completely black at night, so you can't even tell

[33:21] until you pull up in there how many people's there.

[33:25] And maybe that would be better.

[33:27] In terms of, we could just get two more street lights just down at that corner quite closest to the church.

[33:34] I think that would be a good time.

[33:36] So it kind of seems like that's helped us drive now.

[33:40] As soon as we pull in there, it seems like everybody disperses.

[33:43] I did get another compliment at shock.

[33:47] A compliment on that.

[33:48] You remember all the church vandals in there?

[33:51] By the high school?

[33:54] Yeah, we've got a couple compliments on it.

[33:56] Getting that resolved.

[33:57] I'm not going to make promises.

[33:59] So when the result until the school starts next week,

[34:03] that's kind of a big help, because that was a repeat at the end.

[34:08] So, that's about all I have as our public work is reporting them that that was among the overpassed stuff like that to you guys.

[34:17] Yeah.

[34:19] And Miles, does it like polls go through public works?

[34:24] That's it.

[34:25] See if you speak.

[34:26] I'll just do you.

[34:27] Okay.

[34:28] I said, we got to know.

[34:29] I don't know.

[34:30] I don't know.

[34:33] Yeah.

[34:34] Yeah.

[34:35] That's a good idea.

[34:37] Yeah.

[34:37] And if not, that's not happening to you.

[34:40] Well, when I come up here, it's down the road, guess, let's just say it's not happening to you all the time.

[34:45] We might have to look at other avenues to get that done sooner, as well.

[34:49] And how are we in the cameras from A1 or A, the sponsor in that are they donate them to us?

[34:58] As far as I know.

[34:59] Okay, everyone good to me, because they have an excellent view.

[35:03] I mean we've got our two cameras that covered most of the park. We were looking at them yesterday, but with all four cameras on top of each one of those, we get every corner covered.

[35:13] So whatever we need to do to keep that up, I think it's going to be happening in the presence.

[35:18] I don't foresee we're going to have a whole lot of issues, except for the common drunks and stuff that got me going.

[35:23] And I agree with the nature of the way things go.

[35:27] You stay in age and having that extra scary, even if down the road we have to pay for that cost.

[35:33] Right, you figure out how to put that into budget, yes, as a necessary thing.

[35:38] It's time to put them in a sponsor.

[35:40] Yeah, that's probably not a bad idea.

[35:43] That's a big security.

[35:43] Yeah, we can do that.

[35:44] Yeah, I'll give it to us.

[35:46] Okay.

[35:47] That's all right, man.

[35:48] Well, thank you.

[35:49] Nick?

[35:51] If you think of the past around, so now around this is a fair up, so I'll see just

[36:01] over there with a cramped up to tight.

[36:04] That's a list of the suggested donations from the proceeds, essentially profit from the

[36:12] government, recommended by the committee, a rich on that committee, former council Davis,

[36:22] another about seven or eight people. So the last meeting that was the list went through

[36:27] and so they'll be public hearing and approval that list. People will be invited to

[36:33] receive their donation and their certificate on the ninth, September 9th.

[36:41] So just kind of watch for that when you come in a funny agenda.

[36:44] On tonight's agenda, you might have saw this in your packets, but we had to update the privacy policy.

[36:54] It had to do a couple of years ago because it was requirement and a lot of it has to do with electronic access and stuff in sets world.

[37:07] and so and that's on on your agenda tonight and says been through that make sure

[37:14] it's compliant to them kind of simplify it a little bit and I think it's a good spot

[37:20] next one I'll pass around here is let's see or so it was last meeting

[37:33] if you recall

[37:34] a couple of say council meetings ago there was the folks came and did the

[37:40] presentation on the date to say, if you know on this new development, to restrict

[37:47] where green grass can be, but it's not necessarily just zero-scape, but it's, you know,

[37:53] they got their standard on their system and those flags, as well as the incentive for

[37:58] renovating existing ones.

[38:01] And so, I want to pass that around, that's the looking draft, one of the things that

[38:08] And to me talk about it, here's what's pointing out, there is a reference in our ordinance

[38:14] about artificial turf installations, and so we thought that that was an important

[38:20] thing to add in here, that you know, you might have a foot turf in, and there's some

[38:24] little, like, getting the houses a whole way, and being tight in the neighborhood, things

[38:29] like that.

[38:30] But anyway, that's, it also has to be a quality thing, you know, it can't be go to the southern

[38:37] other lands, and by that, by the end of the park, there's actual standard for it, but

[38:43] so that you know, and really what Jordan says is, what the state requirements are to,

[38:49] so for people to be able to get the incentive on a rep from the NCF, but the audience

[38:53] in about the new development, and that really covers both, still some of the language from

[39:00] several of the examples that the state's and the kind of price city I used it.

[39:04] So if you give that a look and unless there's questions or something like that to come up,

[39:13] I would probably say first part of September that I should show up on the agenda.

[39:20] You'll notice kind of at the end of the statements, it says effective date of January 1st and one

[39:28] of the things that we talked about now is there's some coordination and some updates

[39:34] that would have to go along with the existing zoning ordinance, you know, like we're, so,

[39:41] you know, the source of install landscape, but pretty much you have to reference that,

[39:45] and here's a rule about doing that for new construction. So, there's a little bit of an update

[39:52] process that needs to go through that. That process will be, it's underway now, we'll have to retreat

[39:57] in a couple of months, and over that with everybody. And then that becomes effective on January,

[40:02] where I'm headed that.

[40:03] So that's the reason for the coincidence of the dates.

[40:07] Because I can't answer.

[40:08] And I can tell you, since that last meeting,

[40:14] I have more local reach out to me and say,

[40:17] when is this one that's going to take place?

[40:19] I want to pull out my parking strip.

[40:21] Should I wait?

[40:22] Should I do this?

[40:23] And I've pretty much given them a little of the information,

[40:27] told them when it would happen.

[40:28] And so there's a lot of interest in us

[40:30] being part of this program, and people changing their landscape to be much more watermine.

[40:36] So I think it's a good direction to go with, I think we've got a good input from citizens

[40:43] that they're excited to see this, and you know, we're always being asked what's the city

[40:49] doing to become more sudden and water-wise, you know, what steps, what concrete steps

[40:58] is a city taking and this is one. This is a concrete step that we can take.

[41:02] But are we taking it also on our city properties?

[41:07] Well, these, we're actually...

[41:09] This is all different from construction.

[41:12] And then we will be looking at...

[41:15] We've already talked in that meeting about some of our city properties

[41:19] that we could, you know, parks are not...

[41:22] or exempt, but parking strips are a part of that.

[41:26] And the parking scripts around Washington Park would qualify.

[41:30] That's an area that one we could change, reduce, and then we don't need the big sprint

[41:37] clerks going all the way out.

[41:39] And there's road.

[41:40] So it would take care of one of those issues.

[41:42] We hear a lot about it.

[41:43] There's a sprint clerks there.

[41:44] There's water inside walking this.

[41:46] So those are the things that we could do.

[41:49] We need to balance budget versus rebate.

[41:53] But I think that will make it a little more palatable for us to be able to take those projects

[41:58] on and then just face them in as we go and, yes, looking at some of our city properties

[42:05] and where it can lead to more water lines.

[42:10] We have quite a bit of that discussion as we were talking about that.

[42:14] And I've got the draft on my computer.

[42:16] So as you look at that, if there's some wordsmithing or something you see, just you can email

[42:21] or something so I can keep a draft going and circulate it till we're sure if it's good.

[42:25] And churches are eligible.

[42:28] They're really golf courses, parks, and cemeteries.

[42:33] Cemeteries are the three areas that aren't eligible.

[42:36] So everybody else, so.

[42:40] What about new churches?

[42:41] That may be held on the same standard.

[42:44] Right?

[42:45] New churches?

[42:46] Yeah.

[42:51] And I think the typical thing that's a question like that is depends on when they would plot, right?

[42:57] So when you apply, it's the rules that are in place when you apply.

[43:03] But I would tell you more probably.

[43:06] Monster months and months away from receiving that application.

[43:09] Right.

[43:11] Two more things here quickly, Mayor.

[43:13] What happened to you?

[43:14] If you remember the purchase power adjustment thing, I was like a data thing in Castell

[43:23] that delayed that on July 1st to August 1st and so Billi and Steve have got that figured

[43:31] out and Billi's going into the U.S. to do well, but running is building and building cycles

[43:40] as a dollar to put in the nails.

[43:43] They'll explain that to folks out in the gift rooms.

[43:47] They want to bring up what one that's

[43:49] had quite a bit of activity, probably mostly

[43:53] in a little bit in the chiefs world,

[43:56] Miles World by World, the Lawrence Project

[43:58] of by the college.

[44:01] So that's all the public meetings about it.

[44:06] and a lot of input there.

[44:08] So that goes before the planning commission on September 8th.

[44:14] You know, we're rich as the liaison, so the council would be there.

[44:19] But anybody that wants to come and be there, please do, you know,

[44:25] just deny that they'll go through all their rules to get their permit.

[44:28] No, that's a Tuesday, not Monday because of Labor Day.

[44:31] But so then that's coming right up.

[44:40] And then on one thing to take a look at you see it, Monica is trying to be on the leak

[44:49] outside some of the usual things we've done that if it works, we'll probably expand

[44:52] a little bit.

[44:54] One of the side electronic signs over here as you go to the overpass.

[45:00] But, you know, current isn't price city for employment opportunities. So, you know, as you go over that over past, keep an eye for that. She won't reach out on that.

[45:09] And does that cost us anything?

[45:12] Exactly.

[45:13] A hundred bucks.

[45:13] A hundred million bucks.

[45:14] Oh, it's a pretty minimal.

[45:17] How long?

[45:18] I think it was like three months.

[45:21] And if any of it is successful, we see that people are seeing it.

[45:24] And that's what's getting us.

[45:26] Applicants from all different positions.

[45:27] We might try some of the other ones too.

[45:29] But if anything, she's working.

[45:31] She might have talked about her holding a,

[45:33] you know, like a,

[45:34] the mayor may not be positioned.

[45:35] It's all going to be a given time.

[45:36] but they have an open house and here's public work to talk about what that does and the police department are going to go.

[45:42] I don't know John.

[45:43] I don't think John heard that.

[45:45] Yeah, so she's really working hard that way.

[45:48] I did also want to bring up, particularly those of you that have been on the personnel committee would remember this,

[45:54] but the OPE had the issue for the post-employment benefits.

[45:59] So there's the vast majority of our employees that are post-retired,

[46:04] that are eligible, still eligible for insurance, are they they've aged into, in the Medicare there's four, no, three or four currently on it, three or four more employees that have the opportunity to come up through.

[46:21] But that's probably, so last year the council froze the rates on the city's participation

[46:30] in the 2025-2006 rate schedule.

[46:36] So everything is saying except the rates went up, the good news is the rates went up

[46:42] and we're 1.2% but so that little bit of increase for that are a heart number is frozen.

[46:49] forward and starting July 1st, the 2027 year agreement is a lot of work together, so we're starting now with several of you have met with the

[47:00] Postard Consultants at the end of it, essentially a health retirement arrangement, HR-8 program, which is kind of

[47:07] defining the benefit program, and that worked with all of the individuals to make sure that they're all taking care of it.

[47:16] There will be a much more efficient processing through Lisa's office and it will still keep

[47:23] the commitment.

[47:24] Do you have any other meetings, Mayor?

[47:27] I think any of you, we've got some staff meetings with people to send, but comments, such

[47:33] whenever you kind of have a refresher that that's coming up and you know, it'll be in the

[47:40] springtime, the February Marchiest High Framework, some of that gets set so that it's ready to

[47:47] go when we get to the, to reach the light first year.

[47:51] Okay, and then there's not a huge amount that probably costs the savings, you know,

[47:58] contribution will be made a little bit, but the savings will be in the efficiency in the long term.

[48:03] the insurance there will be an insurance rate because well they will not only that on the

[48:17] Medicare like they won't be part of our group anymore so we should see savings in our

[48:25] Yeah, so hard. Yeah, and what that means is that pick pick a number of whatever the increase

[48:31] that's based on utilization and what happened this last year with all of our employees and

[48:36] everything. Look, yeah, last year we did, it was one point two and year of course, 13, you

[48:40] know, let's just pick another statement, seven. But this might keep it from being me.

[48:48] I

[48:49] want to pass around, let's just keep a plug out for that. I mentioned a little bit with the

[48:52] is like a long, land-saving thing.

[48:55] But don't tell us you're on the left, the left, the left, the right.

[48:58] Yeah, I'm going to calendar it.

[49:03] Are we going to have on that land-saving thing really quick?

[49:08] Because they said they would come down and do classes for us.

[49:13] We've been in contact with them next to see when they'd be able to, or we're just waiting

[49:19] until we go to work.

[49:20] I get this in a place, and then we will reach out.

[49:23] I don't know how to tell it soon.

[49:25] Yeah, but now I've been telling people that we'll make it.

[49:27] Because if I wait until next thing, I could then mention,

[49:30] I think that's too long.

[49:31] People want to find a head for after the first year,

[49:34] they'll start the projects, so that's the right thing.

[49:38] Well, I was thinking, like, January, February,

[49:41] they can come down one day,

[49:43] and then the planning takes place, so for the deadline.

[49:47] Yeah, but then whatever, it's a big fun for them.

[49:49] Your guard, that's when the catalogs come out.

[49:51] I know that I'm drawing you down, but I should, yeah, I'll, yeah, yeah, well, so anyway,

[50:00] there's questions on any of that or something else going on.

[50:03] That's kind of the, what's the stuff I had there?

[50:06] Thank you.

[50:07] Thank you.

[50:08] I haven't had too much to report after this issue of the 24th was made.

[50:15] I have to tip that out off to the PD, they actually,

[50:19] So, they started getting bombarded around 9 o'clock too, about 11 o'clock for fireworks.

[50:32] They all had a

[50:36] sense, did a really good job of being in their restrictions.

[50:40] I only had one fire call during that time, the dumpster fire, and I was

[50:48] out of hotel

[50:49] soon.

[50:51] But

[50:57] minimum damage, again, they just didn't soak their fireworks that were there as long as.

[51:03] and realize that

[51:17] should be arriving at the end of this month, hopefully.

[51:20] So you'll see that out and about, hopefully as soon as it comes,

[51:23] we'll get out of it and work down.

[51:27] If

[51:32] our two have, as you said, one,

[51:35] and then there do, there has my office and awareness in November,

[51:41] and then there will be actually certified.

[51:42] So it doesn't take a big process, especially with volunteers.

[51:47] But then we are down a few more, so we'll probably do another course probably in the spring.

[51:56] Other than that, we are down the numbers for our stats from last year or so, our citizens

[52:03] have been really good about being conscious about fires and stuff like that.

[52:08] Good?

[52:09] That's good.

[52:10] On the fireworks, I know we gave kind of short notice on the buckets of the...

[52:14] Unfortunately, it was very short notice for us to do.

[52:17] And if he hadn't picked them up, did anybody come in?

[52:19] The library still has them. They said they had a place to store them.

[52:24] Okay.

[52:24] And so we will be able, hopefully, next year, we'll have a little more late time in a while.

[52:29] I mean, we did.

[52:30] We're in a big deal.

[52:31] And there's just way anybody took advantage of that.

[52:33] Yeah, they gave out some.

[52:35] Did they?

[52:35] And they're the one that's happy to do it again.

[52:38] They're going to storm for us.

[52:40] And then we'll have them on hand for next year.

[52:43] And I had them at the department. I had to share a few people. I'm stuck by and grab some of them too.

[52:48] I just think that was a really nice service that we offered. I think that was really nice.

[52:52] Yeah, part of the G&T, I want to say, if you have 25 left, don't know what the library is.

[53:00] Yeah.

[53:01] I'm sure they are doing it again, choosing.

[53:04] Yeah, good.

[53:05] We have better notice we'll be able to do a little more advertising with that.

[53:08] Yeah, absolutely.

[53:10] It still was a nice service.

[53:11] We had more of the floor too already, but we didn't need to get that right.

[53:20] Yeah, and then there's a employer that comes with it and we have to print it out because

[53:26] they only gave us one, but print it out and it gives us some safety tips of the love of

[53:31] that.

[53:31] That's some good information on their shirt.

[53:33] Yeah, so at

[53:40] least something.

[53:40] That's okay.

[53:44] It's working through getting ready for the audit that'll be in October, and then we today

[53:52] are starting Billy, Zach and I, implementing a new internal control called positive pay.

[54:00] So what that essentially entails is we have to go through, redo the way our checks look.

[54:08] We have to work with Cassel, Larry, have like a module that runs up, but we have

[54:12] to get it set up according to how our bank wants that to look but so every time we cut checks it'll

[54:18] generate a file of all of those checks which then we will upload to Wells Fargo and then it matches any

[54:26] check that comes in against that and if it doesn't doesn't identify with that then they'll reject it

[54:34] and then we'll have to approve that for payment so that should eliminate any fraudulent checks going

[54:41] through our account. So we're working on that. Then after that we have to work on one

[54:49] casals kind of breaking their relationship with express bill pay. So now we'll have youth

[54:55] be converting over to, we don't have to but if we continue to use express bill pay then

[55:01] we'd have to manually enter everything that came in into our system which would create a

[55:06] great inefficiency in the utilities office. So we will be switching over to their

[55:12] party that they're working with. So we're gonna have some transition there as well.

[55:17] I think we have to have that done by November.

[55:21] So that's kind of the upcoming

[55:22] projects. Then we have to redo the way our financial statements are and implement

[55:26] GASB 103. So we're starting that training and looking at how those those are

[55:32] going to look when we have to draft the shirt. So a lot of going on. Then one of the thing

[55:39] that Jack and I have talked about and I know Seth has and I get a lot of through my generic

[55:49] email that's on justfinance.net or whatever, grandma recluse and they're just mass generally

[55:57] from one or two companies who are looking for, can you, you know, if you do business with these

[56:01] companies, send us your contracts and all of this. In fact, I got, I think, four last week.

[56:11] So we really would like to see it go. The state has a grandma form. You submit it through the state.

[56:17] So that way, if anything changes on there, if any of the requirements change, everything is

[56:24] It's uniform, if it all goes through Jackie what she's the record keeper and she keeps

[56:29] up with, you know, we're not all trained on what's private record, so we're always going

[56:34] to Jackie anyway.

[56:35] So if it goes through Jackie, funnels through her, it's all consistent, they're all turned

[56:40] in the same way, everybody has to submit the same way because I've sent that form to, and

[56:46] then I never heard back.

[56:47] I'm like, well, it's easy to just send them a email but not so much if you have to provide

[56:51] about the record information.

[56:53] So we'd like to work towards that as we have time

[56:57] of a committee so that they're all

[57:01] honored through the same and it's uniform

[57:03] and because we're all trying to, you know,

[57:06] everybody gets one.

[57:07] Shilmo, who to send it to, we get them.

[57:09] And we're like, we're going to do it this or so.

[57:13] I think that'll be good.

[57:16] So everyone's treated the same and processed the same.

[57:20] So we've talked about wanting to work on that when we get time and that way we know some changes in the code and

[57:29] Then there'll be it'll be on that form because that's the form state uses and that's the required information you have to submit

[57:35] And I'll be all uniform. So just to have a we don't really have a written policy on that

[57:41] So are there few of you that we like to

[57:44] Followed here to be a committee and

[57:51] when that starts, I'm not sure

[57:53] Like a lot of projects, but I

[58:09] And then the PDs a little would be beneficial for that probably because some of yours is different.

[58:19] Yeah,

[58:22] and like I said, when we start that, you know, we've got a lot going on, but I just,

[58:30] it's gonna,

[58:31] you guys have that one down public works and it's like, right, because there's so much in the, in the cold.

[58:37] Can I give this? Can I not? Can I, does this need to be redacted? Does this, some of them are more complex and some of them are hard?

[58:44] Miles is a really complex. Yeah. And it's so-

[58:48] Not $3,000 in the order of inventory. Yeah. Yeah.

[58:51] And that changed things really fast. But if it's out on our website, here's how you do one.

[58:56] Here's the cost, potentially. Like, you know, here because we have a fee schedule for that.

[59:00] Yeah, so if he's a very recent thought, yeah, but then everybody, they will all be processed

[59:09] and handled the same and consistent and will all know how to go about it because we get that here.

[59:14] What's the need for them right now?

[59:17] It's so much per hour.

[59:20] Well, you'd be like, if I'm the one doing it, you're paying my hourly rate and then so much per copy,

[59:26] even if it's electronic, there's so much per electronic copy and because some of them they

[59:33] want, they ask for, like I've got some, they want years of POs. I'm like, they don't know

[59:37] how long that's even if it's electronic that I can send that, like because we don't have,

[59:44] you know, or we already have to build a report, well if I have to call a software company,

[59:48] how to build a report, that's going to be expensive. So it's kind of like if you put it out

[59:53] front of them, and they know ahead of time, then we're not contemplating doing it.

[1:00:00] It's on them to, like, how much and it says on there how much you want a massive amount, then you can tell them all this which you give for that amount of money.

[1:00:12] It's just, it's kind of everybody, they just come in everywhere. They're not centrally coming in and really they should go through Jackie and then because she, you know, we have to have a record of all of it. Where do we keep it? Have some of my office or Nick has some, the PD has some and they're kind of all over. So if we have it all centrally, I think that'll be better.

[1:00:34] So

[1:00:39] on that express bill pay so that might change it might change it.

[1:00:44] No, it's going to.

[1:00:45] It's going to.

[1:00:45] For sure.

[1:00:46] At first they were like it's optional.

[1:00:49] Now it's like if you if you want it to flow through Excel so all the payments get uploaded automatically.

[1:00:55] All of that so

[1:00:59] that's all the people that pay.

[1:01:04] So we have.

[1:01:05] And then we'll have to make sure like all the forms that we have for that.

[1:01:09] Yeah, I'm conferred over so it's the process.

[1:01:13] Well, and is that a process for the citizens?

[1:01:16] So I use expressable pay my utilities

[1:01:18] for a month and I can't do this.

[1:01:20] Right, so we're not knowing about it.

[1:01:22] So yeah, it isn't.

[1:01:23] No, so we have to change accounts and make a new account

[1:01:26] or we'll transition out.

[1:01:28] That I don't know.

[1:01:29] That billy will more know that.

[1:01:31] She's been more involved in the direct of it.

[1:01:34] But we will have, obviously, we're going to have to educate,

[1:01:37] you know, this is our new system.

[1:01:38] this is right. So we're trying. Hey, your emails that you've been getting that you don't read.

[1:01:45] We're going to this new company for emails that you're not going to read. But don't get scared.

[1:01:50] Yeah. It's changing. So yeah, I think we really don't want because it works seamlessly right now.

[1:01:56] But we don't really. They played our hand. Again, trying to be, you have a good education process.

[1:02:05] is, you know, this change will be coming up when we'll keep more informed as it comes

[1:02:10] up on what, what if anything you're going to have to do on your end and, you know, just

[1:02:15] start actually sending that stuff out now that we know that when we can have transition

[1:02:20] a little bit.

[1:02:22] And then you'll still have people go, I saw nothing, I saw nothing, no, I have to do that.

[1:02:30] You didn't tell me nothing.

[1:02:32] Yeah.

[1:02:32] Yeah, well if we can be knowledgeable and have some mercy on these people.

[1:02:39] Oh yeah, no.

[1:02:40] And all of a sudden their power gets shut off.

[1:02:42] No.

[1:02:42] Or I didn't know my thing was automatic.

[1:02:44] Yeah.

[1:02:44] And so we want to be gentle, right.

[1:02:47] Oh yeah.

[1:02:47] And I think that we could do that and start watching if somebody's been really good and they're on the old system and they don't.

[1:02:55] Yeah.

[1:02:55] We would do something a lot of potential out of them.

[1:02:58] No, no. You have to physically like go in and pay your bill unless.

[1:03:03] The autopsy, the autopsy state. Yeah.

[1:03:07] So

[1:03:14] we've been working on filling a couple of vacancies in the water department.

[1:03:18] We had one of many individual leave us to go from the streets department,

[1:03:21] which was a good thing for him, I guess.

[1:03:24] We got two vacancies to fill.

[1:03:26] Well, we did interviews yesterday, we did six individuals for the two open vacancies.

[1:03:31] And made two offers today, one accepted. I'm not sure what happened to the other one

[1:03:34] because I just had to leave one here, I don't know.

[1:03:39] They had a real couple of good candidates who we're trying to get on board.

[1:03:42] It'll be a little bit more exciting to get going with that.

[1:03:47] That's a bit of burden on us trying to get to all the water leaks that's going through

[1:03:50] around town.

[1:03:50] That would be a short crew because the water crew works up a bit better with the water plant

[1:03:55] this time of year.

[1:03:57] It's a small heart in the end town crew, and it's probably important to maybe mention that

[1:04:02] to some water, not all water leaks are equated equal.

[1:04:05] as far as the ports and the urgency, some may sit for weeks because they're just going to leak through

[1:04:12] a bad joint, a bad joint or something like that, thinking maybe a couple gallons,

[1:04:22] should might worry a couple of maybe three or four gallons of 24-hour per year or something like that

[1:04:25] from the sea beach, but it doesn't build up over time because it's the worst that it is.

[1:04:30] We have to go, of course, get to the urgent ones first.

[1:04:34] But we have had some around that have been around for a while and people are getting

[1:04:37] out here and tidd by them.

[1:04:38] We try to explain to them, they were getting there and throw the list, we're sure you

[1:04:42] let us know.

[1:04:45] On the project list, we've got going, we're kind of excited to have a couple projects done.

[1:04:53] But these, one is the Pickleball course, it's done now and we've got a chance to look

[1:04:58] at the big goal.

[1:05:03] We're having that service contractor come back and look at a couple minor microcracks on the surface of the put-on there, but I don't think it's anything serious.

[1:05:14] And Senator Warren T for a year, so that turned out to be a really good project.

[1:05:20] that a contractor got big get done early they weren't done the whole two weeks

[1:05:24] or anything about that or you know to get through three forces and if they got

[1:05:27] six thousand dollars and eight thousand dollars and he's where they

[1:05:31] haven't speed up and get done before the international base came right so our

[1:05:38] biggest project spring water transmission line that's on the agenda tonight to

[1:05:42] improve the contractor construction is a little bitter we have our attack

[1:05:51] So we're excited to have one that's under the budget for the estimate from the engine here was for the end, so it's worth that budget.

[1:05:59] It's good news that way.

[1:06:01] There was a lot of looking at this contractor making sure that this contractor was a good contractor before.

[1:06:07] We found out they're the ones that put in our transmission line between the plant and the tree of the plant and the tank in a few years ago.

[1:06:14] So, hopefully they have both the same people still available working for them, not that you have your generation to find out.

[1:06:21] So, not to say that you would be generation to them, but anyway, that would success the best of these guys.

[1:06:26] So, we're pretty confident we're going to work out, okay?

[1:06:28] And we have a 1.2 million dollars to that between that one and the next bit of that.

[1:06:33] We would have a large change where we probably still have the number of degrees.

[1:06:37] easily. The only thing would be a change would probably be the way we, what we find

[1:06:43] is we try to try to drill under the railroad crossings. We've got a drill that's really

[1:06:48] unknown under there, or as long as we drill all that up, so that's the biggest question

[1:06:54] we're going to have.

[1:06:57] EAS Reservoir Project, and most of you know how carbon can house back

[1:07:02] again to her out for a year. Now they're back in. We spent some of the money we had before

[1:07:09] they went out. We're down to the smaller malls. We're working on finding out what the new

[1:07:16] mall is going to be. We've got an amount today and we have talked to the consultant about

[1:07:20] that and see what that includes. It's a little bit more than I thought it would be, but either

[1:07:25] way we got to finish the project to this point. We have to bring home and we have told

[1:07:29] made and finished the project on that extension we received should take that

[1:07:33] long to get to that now so most of what we had before the pause was

[1:07:37] Carving analysis needed we now it's been over a year we're going to update the

[1:07:41] costs and the cost studies and things like that to make sure they're all

[1:07:44] current.

[1:07:47] Let's bring them to come back in I think well a lot of it was Bill

[1:07:54] Richard he's on the Carving Canal and you see any candidate that went for the

[1:07:58] project personally. I know that was the only reason he was concerned about it, but I think they

[1:08:04] fully didn't understand that they were going to have to love that behind if they didn't get it now

[1:08:09] because you can't get it later because we go to design phase they're out of the end of the design,

[1:08:15] so they want to, they need to stay on board longer, they're they're complained about having to

[1:08:20] commit to financial, which there was no commitment now. It does come at the end of design but doesn't come

[1:08:25] now so running the train for the stop is not going to cost me anything and it gives

[1:08:31] them a chance to work with us to find some funding to possibly buy for good

[1:08:35] house so it's all a good thing just cost me here that we shouldn't have had to

[1:08:40] spend do what we did but now we got to find some funding to work with the

[1:08:45] council on that we get that by 10 more but we

[1:08:52] talked about the season existing

[1:08:55] We have an update the numbers in the cost I need to save as the funding to be the little cost I need.

[1:09:02] Another project, the list,

[1:09:06] now and by my mount bike race bridge,

[1:09:09] we've got a set of places yesterday, it's across the wash,

[1:09:13] we're working on the ramps coming up to you side of it now.

[1:09:17] But it's been set on the fund for the funding foundations,

[1:09:20] and took a little longer to plan,

[1:09:22] because we're going back and forth into the contractor of the engineer.

[1:09:26] So we got that room that worked out.

[1:09:28] But it looks like it's going to be a nice addition to the beautiful addition to the bike race course.

[1:09:34] We know what the race begins with this year.

[1:09:37] We do have it six, seven times on the camera in the day and one.

[1:09:39] Yeah, we're down to one.

[1:09:42] Because other places in the state have built their courses.

[1:09:45] Now they've learned that.

[1:09:45] Yeah.

[1:09:46] I think you did benefit from it, too.

[1:09:47] What about the circuit courses?

[1:09:50] There's the best because you have the best place to stand up on a yellow and watch the old race.

[1:09:54] Yes, but we're the closest to talent that any of them can't be used, I'd say that.

[1:10:02] How do you get that?

[1:10:05] Controls, I don't know.

[1:10:07] Mark and those guys are doing their best, you know.

[1:10:12] It's just the opposite.

[1:10:15] I think five every year to get to several of them.

[1:10:18] And even though they don't always race in the court,

[1:10:22] and the bike race is here, those are from other religions.

[1:10:28] You know, they still, it varies.

[1:10:32] I mean, we've gone half-long, and we've got three,

[1:10:35] and two, and you know, so it just is on the...

[1:10:40] Two's about riding away, really, what we do.

[1:10:41] Yeah, two's probably got a three, three is pretty overloaded.

[1:10:46] But we would possibly have, we are also possible over a possible alternate location if someone has a weather problem.

[1:10:53] So we don't get the weather expected quite as much of a hail as they may come here because we have a weather ring out there.

[1:10:58] Wash out what we're at. So it's still possible that you can have more of the wind right now.

[1:11:02] Sketch up for one.

[1:11:04] Yeah, and everything everybody that brings in, it's a wind so.

[1:11:07] Well, yeah, that's why with Gromple's excited to help out with the project to make it special for another bridge, so he's doing it all over the city.

[1:11:18] It's all a work and labor.

[1:11:23] And AWP project is a big one we're working on right now too with our flood project.

[1:11:28] And we're still working out the details of the land on her with one of the damn tanks

[1:11:35] of land there to put our attention based on a lot of coal from the left coal and coal

[1:11:39] crushed upon.

[1:11:40] Would he have found two more razors today that are a lot cheaper?

[1:11:46] Oh, really?

[1:11:47] So it is to do that section, right?

[1:11:50] Yes.

[1:11:50] Just about a tenth of the time.

[1:11:52] Oh, really?

[1:11:54] Well, as you respond again?

[1:11:57] Well, we're waiting to get the official call from them, and then we're going to talk to

[1:12:00] you tomorrow about us.

[1:12:02] I don't know what you found out about their alternative.

[1:12:05] At that rate, we can probably afford to pay the whole thing ourselves.

[1:12:08] But we'll work that out, but you know what's going on in this moment.

[1:12:14] That we will still be waiting for a while here on the needs wash project to back close to

[1:12:19] the meeting ground on that.

[1:12:20] We've got two possible funding sources.

[1:12:22] We have the congressional discretion funding that's still out there.

[1:12:25] for that, as well as the break funding.

[1:12:29] So we think we're gonna get something coming.

[1:12:31] The break funding looked the most positive

[1:12:33] because they had twice as much money this year

[1:12:35] for the program, and we had a really strong program,

[1:12:38] or a really strong invadplication.

[1:12:43] Just put in for an extension on the EWP project too,

[1:12:47] by the way, well, that would be a kind of interactive

[1:12:50] on the agenda next round.

[1:12:53] We had a really requested extension

[1:13:10] Yeah, I haven't decided my mind

[1:13:18] was tonic spring, sometimes spring may have things.

[1:13:25] What's the menu?

[1:13:26] Yeah, I think it's main.

[1:13:27] We're

[1:13:30] asking for some initial funding for the design because we had extra costs with the cultural and environmental studies we had to do.

[1:13:37] There are two signs for the two-bit and two-digit-digit bonds, where you'd be able to consider

[1:13:43] to give us some more design money.

[1:13:45] There's two different monies they give us.

[1:13:46] They give us a lot of money, a lot of construction money, and we've been short on the design

[1:13:50] money because of those pictures and required studies.

[1:13:53] We can proceed with pretty

[1:13:58] much all I have.

[1:14:01] It's like we're at an image from the telephone of folks, the hiring.

[1:14:05] It's something that was really cool.

[1:14:07] It was not just a selection, it didn't do anything.

[1:14:17] I'm not exactly sure what all they did, but I thought that was a really, I think that was a really beneficial thing to do with that.

[1:14:32] Not only shows what they can do with the machinery, but also gives them a different setting to see how they operate in and whether they interact with it.

[1:14:38] This was well, but gives a whole different angle.

[1:14:41] We're going to record with the screen process.

[1:14:44] We appreciate Nick and Monica, who are the offers together we kind of have unique approaches to get these better guys

[1:14:51] and we don't need to get it blind and trying to get them hired on, so appreciate it.

[1:15:03] I just have one thought when he was talking about leading the two lights out at Terracell's Park, is there any kind of temporary option? I could look at solar, motion lights, something to put in place while we're trying to get something more expensive like street lights. Is there something we could do at least for safety reasons to get something in place? That's actually one thing I was going to ask. Who do I direct those kind of questions to?

[1:15:29] Yep.

[1:15:30] Or to see, or a phone call on that.

[1:15:35] All right.

[1:15:36] Does that make sense to me?

[1:15:38] It's my personal issue.

[1:15:39] No, I don't know.

[1:15:40] It's something in place.

[1:15:42] And while we're working on the bigger things, I'm just going to see if there's any questions.

[1:15:47] And then I just have one more question.

[1:15:50] International days when our guys are driving around, number one, they were amazing.

[1:15:54] And keeping all the trash and keeping everything they're absolutely amazing.

[1:15:58] One thing that I heard from workers as well as a few people was that the side by side

[1:16:04] don't have strong enough linking lights and so when they stopped and then while we were

[1:16:11] talking after three, four, maybe five minutes the lights would go off, the little hazards and

[1:16:16] so some of them were expressing that they felt it was a safety issue and they wish they had

[1:16:22] a bar with a toggle switch or something that had more emergency lights when they stopped

[1:16:28] or when they're going through crowded areas they can have those blinking a little bit

[1:16:32] more than people could see them and they have more of this ability.

[1:16:35] So who would I dream of in fact to check into what accessories we buy when they cost

[1:16:55] No, they were. They were. They were the ones concerned about it, bringing it to my attention as a counselor said. And I had four different city workers men. And then I had a lady. I don't know her name, but she was great. And she was really upset about it. So.

[1:17:10] Well, there are actually five different city markets that we're talking to.

[1:17:14] You have to see if your national days can pay you for it.

[1:17:16] We'll put a lot of them with the good kids on there.

[1:17:19] But the other thing about which I'm not joking.

[1:17:21] I know.

[1:17:22] I know you're not.

[1:17:23] And that's why there's a good leg lease in Ireland.

[1:17:25] But I like it on the top of your switch.

[1:17:26] I mean, you can get stuff like that in their $50.

[1:17:29] They'll have a shop for them, so I don't know.

[1:17:30] So it's not going to be $50.

[1:17:32] But who would be?

[1:17:33] Do I go through?

[1:17:34] You then develop on it?

[1:17:35] Yeah.

[1:17:36] We'll follow up with people.

[1:17:37] Bob and Justin, that's fine.

[1:17:38] They turned off and then they showed me again, the next time they came around, they're like, look, it turns off and so it didn't.

[1:17:54] International days, I passed out a list of what the government did.

[1:18:00] And it was a great job. It was awesome. International days turned out very well. I thought, again, I thought everything

[1:18:12] went well.

[1:18:14] I think I made a request to the mayor that we'll talk

[1:18:22] about playing. I'll thank everybody.

[1:18:25] Because the committee, it runs itself. A lot of things and it makes it very, very nice.

[1:18:32] There's some things I'm going to follow up on, I have a big list in here, and some things I want to talk to the police about.

[1:18:38] I want to get a list of everything we paid out.

[1:18:44] That'll probably be allowed.

[1:18:45] I don't remember.

[1:18:47] I get heaven.

[1:18:48] I don't really understand.

[1:18:51] I think we need to look at that and take a look at what is this really costly.

[1:18:59] After all of that settles, you have at least had some chance to do some of that.

[1:19:04] Yeah, we start on it.

[1:19:05] It's just every night.

[1:19:07] There's like, don't remember.

[1:19:08] There's still things going on.

[1:19:08] Well, it's going to be a lot of stuff coming in for a while.

[1:19:10] Yeah.

[1:19:11] We're going to have a meeting really talking about all of our events.

[1:19:16] Right.

[1:19:17] Where's international days?

[1:19:19] How, you know, rent fast, culture connection?

[1:19:25] Even the law turned in.

[1:19:26] But those kind of things what are their value to the city?

[1:19:31] Where are we at what level do we want them do we do we have room to grow do they need to shrink you know

[1:19:38] That that's going to be a discussion that everybody needs to be a part of and not just us as a council, but

[1:19:47] Finance the police department the parks department streets department

[1:19:56] Seth and

[1:19:59] Steve

[1:20:00] a citywide, you know, and we probably can't all get into one meeting and make it productive.

[1:20:10] We'll start talking to those people that need to be part of it and start coming, bringing in the positives and the negatives that we have

[1:20:21] as we're putting these events on to see how we can turn these events into something that as a city we feel like we've got full control over.

[1:20:30] We're putting on a fantastic events and that we can look at the public and say why we're

[1:20:40] doing this, why we're doing this.

[1:20:44] And I mean, these are, I mean, I'm not looking to shut down anything at all.

[1:20:50] But we've never done that.

[1:20:53] In all the years these events have been going on, they've just kind of organically grown to

[1:20:58] where they are.

[1:20:59] And some are going faster than others, some of, you know.

[1:21:03] But at some point, we really need to look at the total cost

[1:21:08] of these events, both in actual costs, in manpower that

[1:21:13] is now diverted from a job, maybe that they were, you know,

[1:21:18] on to ship gears and focus.

[1:21:23] And just see, how do we make these things work?

[1:21:25] work. Yes, we can do,

[1:21:30] and I just think it's time to take that look at it

[1:21:38] from our national

[1:21:39] aid. Right. And

[1:21:43] do this. So, but I do want you to know that that is something that

[1:21:47] the

[1:22:07] rig is in helper.

[1:22:14] The rig for the monos in helper. Last one in price is tomorrow night.

[1:22:17] Tomorrow night. You may be right now. We don't mind it. Yeah, we're already having that

[1:22:22] discussion.

[1:22:28] Anybody else? Jackie?

[1:22:33] We've been upset. We gotta hear your thoughts. We're

[1:22:35] Thank you very much.
