[2:39] A, I think.

[2:41] >> Oh,

[2:42] >> Linda wasn't spelled correctly. And I

[2:44] don't think Morel spelled spelled

[2:46] correctly.

[2:51] » Okay.

[2:53] Morel is spelled correctly.

[2:56] >> Okay,

[2:57] >> but Linda, we just left the D off. Easy

[3:00] fix.

[3:51] whether we're going to get through it or

[3:53] not. We'll be here all night.

[3:56] >> That's it. Unless somebody's bad, we'll

[3:59] do that. How about correspondence from

[4:00] the town office?

[4:02] >> No, sir.

[4:04] >> Okay,

[4:06] Derek, if you don't mind, turn it over

[4:08] to Houston.

[4:09] >> I had 17 calls for a month and I had one

[4:12] arrest for shot and then you can see on

[4:15] there that assaults and welfare checks,

[4:20] couple mental health complaints.

[4:22] Uh, also I put a flyer on on y'all's

[4:25] desk for the 911 ceremony on the 13th of

[4:29] September.

[4:31] We'll be sharing that on our Facebook

[4:33] page and

[4:54] We uh I got a call just through

[4:56] curiosity just for conversation sake

[4:58] asking me who was his funeral home and I

[5:01] looked it up. It was Jerry Buck. I don't

[5:04] want anybody in here knows Jerry. I How

[5:07] old was

[5:10] >> Yeah.

[5:12] >> Jerry I didn't realize until then they

[5:14] were twins.

[5:16] >> Both fine fellas both of them. That's

[5:19] Charlie Buck's younger brother. But

[5:22] anyway, Jerry had a lot of people.

[5:25] >> It was

[5:27] out there

[5:30] who knows there's no park.

[5:31] >> No getting in there. But I didn't I just

[5:36] [clears throat] want to sort of bring

[5:36] that up. I was like Jerry and Larry both

[5:39] they used to they go everywhere we would

[5:41] sing. See the B brothers. Okay. Any

[5:46] other got correspondents from the town

[5:48] council?

[5:50] Okay, we've done the police report.

[5:53] Anybody have any other questions for

[5:55] Derek?

[5:58] » All right, I'm checking off.

[6:00] >> Terry, did you ask did you get a hold of

[6:04] the person? I thought you did. Okay,

[6:06] >> I did.

[6:07] >> Okay.

[6:08] >> And he texted me. I let him know the day

[6:09] after I got a hold of him. Okay. He told

[6:11] me he texted me and said he voted back.

[6:13] >> He did. Thank you.

[6:16] Excellent. Always nice to get results.

[6:21] Okay, any other questions? If not, it's

[6:24] just unfinished business and the

[6:27] addition to town shop is something

[6:29] probably skip over now that we can't pay

[6:31] for it last.

[6:31] >> Well, I disagree, Mr.

[6:34] >> We can uh

[6:36] >> we can move we can move we can move

[6:38] money from reserves for that.

[6:40] >> Okay.

[6:41] >> Um

[6:42] >> that's good. the the only procedural

[6:44] thing I need to figure out and I I'll do

[6:46] it with Locky um as well is if it's a

[6:52] certain amount of the budget we have to

[6:53] do a budget amendment. So I need to see

[6:55] if we have to do a budget amendment to

[6:57] move that money or if we can just I

[6:59] don't I don't see it being close to

[7:01] being

[7:02] >> enough money for it to have to have a

[7:05] budget amendment. But let me check on

[7:07] that before we move the money. The money

[7:10] was there because when the budget when

[7:13] the new budget started the old budget

[7:16] went into reserve what was left over

[7:18] >> right

[7:19] >> so the money was is there

[7:22] >> it's just not earmarked in the budget

[7:24] >> out of reserve

[7:25] >> and put it in the next year's budget in

[7:27] a sense

[7:28] >> and pay for the new the addition to that

[7:31] building

[7:32] >> great I'm glad we may be able to get

[7:34] that done that's wonderful

[7:36] >> yes

[7:39] height. So, you got to find out some

[7:42] information. What about the Locust

[7:44] Avenue water supply?

[7:46] >> Uh VDH,

[7:48] um

[7:50] they sent me a uh permit to sign and

[7:55] then all we're waiting on them is to

[7:56] sign off on it. Um I'm meeting with the

[7:59] engineer tomorrow at 2:00 to talk to

[8:02] them and make sure we're ready to go on

[8:04] that and then we'll bid it out.

[8:08] Okay, any questions?

[8:12] Okay, the whiff foundation grant, it's

[8:15] been submitted. We're waiting on

[8:16] approval. See if we got

[8:20] money or not.

[8:23] >> Okay, Dale, I need information in the

[8:27] National.

[8:28] >> I do. Um, the bridges are on board, so

[8:33] they're going to open this up. Um, I'm

[8:39] working with Pastor Vanover

[8:43] and Jason is coming back from Maryland to give us the service if

[8:51] he doesn't have a funeral to attend to.

[8:53] and I'm going to get in touch with all

[8:55] of the pastors in the community and

[8:57] invite them all to attend. And then what

[9:01] we'll do after this year is try to go on

[9:03] a rotation and give every one of them

[9:05] the opportunity to to do it. But I

[9:08] thought

[9:10] um Jason want to come back to town and

[9:13] do it was a was a good thing.

[9:16] >> You lose it.

[9:19] Do

[9:19] >> you need any funds for this? Is this

[9:21] costing anything?

[9:23] We are going to have to buy the um

[9:27] materials from the National Day of

[9:28] Prayer

[9:30] Foundation that give us kind of the

[9:33] guidelines to go by. And I would like to

[9:38] have some funding somewhere to at least

[9:41] buy dinner for Pastor McNees or maybe

[9:43] pay for his room since he's driving all

[9:45] the way from Maryland.

[9:47] We can do that under undesated in the 10

[9:49] fund in the

[9:51] >> How much how much do you think you you

[9:54] need? You know what this material is

[9:55] going to cost?

[9:56] >> I don't know. They haven't released that

[9:58] yet. And I would like to give the riches

[10:00] something. Usually they give it back or

[10:01] they take it and donate it to somebody,

[10:03] but I I hate to ask them to play for

[10:05] free all the time.

[10:08] So I mean

[10:09] >> $1,200 would be great. $1,500 whatever

[10:14] you all feel fuel.

[10:15] >> We have that. Do you want that to come

[10:16] out of contributions?

[10:18] >> However you

[10:19] >> I mean that's what we do for civic

[10:21] organizations and things like that. So

[10:25] >> $1,200 $1,200. Perfect.

[10:27] >> I move we allocate $1,200 out of

[10:30] contributions to the National Day of

[10:33] Prayer.

[10:34] >> Second.

[10:38] Great.

[10:39] >> And have you heard anything about using

[10:40] the depot from Mike Paul?

[10:43] >> No, I haven't. Okay.

[10:45] >> Um, so you do want the depot and not the

[10:47] community center because we can block

[10:49] either one off.

[10:50] >> We were thinking about using the depot

[10:53] and if it got too big just moving out

[10:56] into the flat, but if you would rather

[10:58] use the community you this is I'll do

[11:01] whatever you want.

[11:01] >> What does council think? I mean, what is

[11:03] your all's opinion?

[11:09] » I think the parking is a lot better at

[11:11] the community center. It is parking's a

[11:13] lot better and we own the building,

[11:16] >> right?

[11:18] >> So, it it's Thursday. First Thursday.

[11:24] >> Yeah, it's on Thursday. So, you won't

[11:26] have any trouble

[11:29] with anybody booking it.

[11:31] >> Well, I can tell you real quick. Y'all

[11:33] go ahead and keep

[11:35] I mean, I'm finding this place. It's And

[11:38] you know, at at the community center, at

[11:40] least we got you got the stage. So the

[11:42] speakers are looking

[11:44] >> out at the audience.

[11:45] >> The parking is much better.

[11:47] >> No. And that one year, I think the first

[11:50] year Jack Weaver did it, we had to move

[11:52] it inside there, didn't we?

[11:54] >> Because it rained so much.

[11:56] >> Yeah.

[12:00] » On the on the subject of geek.

[12:03] >> Mhm.

[12:03] >> What's the date?

[12:05] >> It's the first Thursday in May.

[12:09] >> I think it would be appropriate It's

[12:12] totally up to you. This is your show.

[12:14] Uh, but Jack started that.

[12:18] >> I think it'd be appropriate if Jack was

[12:20] recognized in some way this year since

[12:24] his passing.

[12:25] >> I wanted to recognize Jack was like a

[12:29] moment of silence.

[12:30] >> Yeah.

[12:30] >> Thanking him and leave a chair out of

[12:33] the front row open for him.

[12:34] >> Yeah.

[12:36] >> It would be more than appropriate, I

[12:38] think. Absolutely. Jack was he was very

[12:40] instrumental in this. He really was

[12:44] >> the first Thursday is the 6th in May.

[12:47] The Lions Club has the Bailey room book,

[12:49] but do you want me to reach out to them

[12:50] and see if we can reschedu them to maybe

[12:53] Tuesday?

[12:55] >> If you want to check on it, that's fine.

[12:56] >> Okay,

[13:01] perfect. Good. Now, I've got a motion on

[13:04] the floor to that allocate some money.

[13:07] Everybody understand how much? And

[13:10] $1,200.

[13:12] Okay, motion

[13:14] is none. That's uh all those in favor

[13:18] making that allocation, please signify

[13:20] by stating I post same sign. Okay, the

[13:24] motion carries. Thank you.

[13:27] Okay.

[13:31] Is any other unfinished business we need

[13:33] to cover?

[13:36] Okay. Is there any new business?

[13:41] Have one one more item left. May there

[13:44] getting them knocked off here. Twice in

[13:46] the last week I've been approached by

[13:49] different citizens.

[13:52] The subject is horse manure.

[13:57] >> Grown apples. I got a text about it too.

[14:01] You know, I don't know what we can do

[14:03] about it, but

[14:05] there is

[14:09] people who are not happy with it.

[14:14] » Do you know of any cuz you've been in

[14:16] lots of parades. I know you have. You

[14:18] don't know.

[14:20] >> I think the horse,

[14:22] don't they?

[14:23] >> It's considered a ve I mean, you can do

[14:26] in Virginia still

[14:27] >> got the right away and the roads. I

[14:29] mean,

[14:31] >> well, you know, I don't I'm not

[14:32] concerned about the traffic. The primary

[14:36] thing that I'm getting is the horse

[14:38] manure.

[14:43] » Is there any way that they can I know in

[14:46] some places there is I don't know what

[14:49] you call it, but they put

[14:51] >> the hood on.

[14:53] >> Yeah,

[14:55] >> you can, but I

[14:56] >> I'm sure that's that's probably

[14:58] technology to them. I'm sure they

[15:00] wouldn't do it.

[15:00] >> Wouldn't do it.

[15:03] >> Can Can

[15:05] we maybe inquire from uh

[15:09] >> No state no statewide law in Virginia

[15:12] makes it illegal for a horse to leave

[15:14] manure on a public road while being

[15:16] ridden.

[15:17] >> I mean, I looked at

[15:20] that. I wasn't aware that that's an

[15:23] answer we can give to them.

[15:24] >> Yeah, it's there. It's actually still

[15:27] considered mode of transportation

[15:32] » fuel.

[15:35] >> Looks like oil come falling out of here.

[15:37] [laughter]

[15:39] » The same thing as gas leaking.

[15:43] >> I'll just say this and

[15:46] if there's nothing we can do at the end

[15:47] of the day, but it would be nice if we

[15:50] could reach out to that community and

[15:52] tell them, you know, we we have a

[15:54] concern here.

[15:56] and see

[15:57] >> you got the goal

[15:58] >> kind of kind of see what their response

[16:00] is. Of course, we're not let them

[16:03] >> just at least let them understand that

[16:05] it's a problem for some.

[16:07] I don't I don't think that's too uh too

[16:10] much to ask or anybody concern about

[16:13] that is if they decide to do something

[16:15] about it and they have it happen and

[16:17] they're trying to clean up and somebody

[16:19] gets run over. Well, well, that then

[16:22] you're going to be holding up traffic to

[16:24] clean it up.

[16:25] >> That's that that's part of the

[16:26] conversation we at least have. In my

[16:28] opinion, it's not fair for us to sit

[16:30] here and say, "There's another we do, It's all done. It's over

[16:34] or whatever without even engaging them

[16:36] and trying to come out.

[16:39] So, can we not just

[16:42] on the book to do something about it?

[16:44] What can you do about it?"

[16:46] >> Yeah,

[16:48] >> that's the point. No, the point is is

[16:51] that they may or may not even perceive

[16:54] it as a problem.

[16:55] >> Well, I'm sure they don't. That's their

[16:57] mode of transportation.

[16:58] >> No, need.

[17:00] >> I'm just saying.

[17:02] >> And it's legal.

[17:03] >> And there's no one that lives in the

[17:05] town limits.

[17:08] To me, it wouldn't be unreasonable to

[17:10] ask to sit down and talk to somebody.

[17:12] >> I mean, I think that's

[17:15] >> it. Don't give it don't give a code

[17:16] section, but I'll figure out what it is

[17:18] for you.

[17:22] » I talk to I've I've been to and talked

[17:25] to the

[17:28] >> kind of the head guy and I mean he I

[17:30] mean he just has to get with his

[17:33] >> Yeah. I mean I

[17:36] >> I mean at one point

[17:39] I think

[17:41] council member Lewis

[17:43] had given me the name of a parish in or

[17:47] >> in Illinois and I had called

[17:49] >> and they had so many uh Amish in

[17:53] community in there that they had bought

[17:54] a special truck just to ride the roads

[17:57] and and clean that up. Um that's not

[18:01] something I think's feasible for the

[18:02] town.

[18:05] No, but although may not make the

[18:08] record, but this we don't have all the

[18:12] going to.

[18:13] >> Yeah,

[18:14] >> not yet.

[18:17] Okay, that's sort of under new business.

[18:21] Anything other we can think will have

[18:24] any effect?

[18:27] Apparently, it's had somebody to

[18:29] approach me

[18:33] on the

[18:35] apparently they're spraying the corn.

[18:38] Does anybody know anything about that?

[18:43] >> bottomly

[18:44] >> bottom le

[18:46] >> um we dealt with this issue

[18:49] uh with a concerned citizen on

[18:51] Pin Avenue.

[18:52] >> Yes.

[18:53] >> Um

[18:55] >> two years ago.

[18:57] uh

[18:57] >> from the side that's

[18:59] >> and at that point I had called they all

[19:03] they have all get permits through the

[19:05] county to do anything they do. Um and

[19:08] all of these have MSDS sheets that are

[19:12] approved through the state of Virginia.

[19:13] They have a database that shows approved

[19:15] and unapproved pesticides, herbicides,

[19:18] all those things. Um and I talked to a

[19:21] guy, I can't remember his name, but I

[19:23] can reach back out to him if you'd like

[19:24] for me to. Um, and they go through with

[19:27] Bottomly about every place that they do.

[19:29] And it's not just Bottomly, it's several

[19:31] other farms around that use these sprays

[19:34] on their on their uh crops. And nothing

[19:38] that they're doing from what I can

[19:40] understand and from the MSDS sheets that

[19:42] they're using is breaking any kind of

[19:45] law or

[19:47] what they're what they're what they're

[19:48] saying is causing any health related

[19:50] effects.

[19:51] >> They said they couldn't breathe.

[19:54] I mean, I'm just

[19:56] >> They have to be spray helicopter now,

[19:58] aren't they?

[19:59] >> Yeah.

[20:00] >> We I saw the helicopter.

[20:03] >> I I actually went and talked to the guy

[20:05] that runic and he said he's got all his

[20:08] permits,

[20:09] everything.

[20:12] >> And I mean, and [clears throat]

[20:12] personally, I was pretty pretty I'm not just I'm just saying I was close

[20:18] to the helicopter and where it was and I

[20:21] had no trouble with this. And you were

[20:23] right there underneath it, right?

[20:25] >> Yeah, I went. He landed right there

[20:27] where I was at top to me. I ran over

[20:29] top.

[20:33] I And I might be wrong with this. I told

[20:37] them if maybe they could see what they

[20:40] were spraying. I mean, the MS DS sheets.

[20:43] >> Did they turn them into the county?

[20:45] >> Yeah. I told them they

[20:47] >> I think I know the situation you're

[20:49] talking about. Um, and I had dealt with

[20:53] this before, but I'll be glad to reach

[20:55] back out and I actually think that I got

[20:58] copies of the MSDS sheets a couple years

[21:00] ago, but I I can't I can't remember if

[21:03] that's 100% true, but I can reach back

[21:05] out to the county and see at least make

[21:08] sure that they've got their permit for

[21:09] the spring there.

[21:14] » Okay.

[21:16] All right. Is there any other new

[21:18] business?

[21:20] All right, let's go to committee reports

[21:24] under finance and appropriation. Do you

[21:26] have any reporting there?

[21:29] >> I read this.

[21:30] >> No,

[21:32] she I I'm just going to say this. This

[21:34] could this could go under this or

[21:36] personnel. Locky's done a really good

[21:39] job. She came in at a time when she had

[21:42] to do a lot of stuff for the auditors.

[21:44] Uh she's done she's I think you've got

[21:47] everything sent right

[21:48] >> except for the invoices.

[21:49] >> She's got everything that they needed

[21:51] that she submitted today uh to for them.

[21:54] We called them explained we had a new

[21:56] treasurer. They were they were really I

[21:59] think they were really helpful and

[22:00] understanding you know that we had some

[22:02] hurdles to get over and and and they've

[22:05] helped and we we've been able to uh

[22:08] overcome any of the issues that we've

[22:10] had. The hardest part she's had is just

[22:12] getting all these people to switch her

[22:13] over into an administration role and get

[22:16] passwords changed and and and things

[22:18] like that cuz sometimes they need

[22:20] something on letterhead and whatever.

[22:22] But I'd also like to give and I think

[22:24] Locky would agree with me. I'd like to

[22:26] give Carolyn Mooney a shout out. She's

[22:30] really went above and beyond um to to

[22:34] help with the transition. Uh we knew it

[22:36] wasn't going to be easy. Um, and it's

[22:39] had our it's had its obstacles. Um, but

[22:43] Carolyn has really really stepped up.

[22:45] Um, and if you guys, you know, wanted to

[22:48] give her a gift certificate or

[22:50] something, you know, I think that would

[22:52] be because she really has, she's got a

[22:55] job to do, but she's also stepped up and

[22:58] the things that she knows how to do in

[23:00] the system that that Locky was kind of,

[23:04] you know, hit or miss on. Maybe she can

[23:07] speak to it better than I can, but I've

[23:08] seen her be a really, really big help in

[23:11] the transition and what's going on.

[23:15] Yeah, just navigating the,

[23:18] >> you know, if you're going

[23:19] >> big enough, it's hard to find some

[23:21] things, I guess,

[23:22] >> right? From a doll system to web-based,

[23:25] you know, you're just learning a new

[23:27] processing system. and she showed me

[23:30] where to look for things, how to pull

[23:31] reports

[23:33] and um she had a lot of notes that

[23:36] Monica had showed her some things on and

[23:38] she shared that with me and she's stood

[23:42] right beside me or she's grabbed the

[23:44] mouse and she's clicked and I've

[23:46] watched.

[23:47] So, she really has

[23:50] been a great help to me.

[23:54] Okay.

[23:57] You going to just put the for personnel

[23:59] or the same kind of been the same. Do we

[24:02] need to do something for her? You want

[24:04] us to do something?

[24:05] >> That's completely up to you. I I think

[24:07] she deserves it.

[24:08] >> Okay.

[24:09] >> All right.

[24:10] I'll make a suggestion.

[24:11] >> I'll get I'll suggest I'll make a motion

[24:15] just for discussion about a $100 gift

[24:19] card to the job plan. All is fair. Give

[24:22] that.

[24:24] >> There's your motion. I'll second.

[24:25] Okay, we've done that. Now, any

[24:27] discussion? That's great. I appreciate

[24:29] it.

[24:33] » Would you take care of that for us?

[24:35] >> Absolutely.

[24:35] >> Between the two of you? I have a

[24:37] question. Yes. Does it have to be the job of

[24:40] >> I I can I'll leave it to the manager's

[24:43] discussion.

[24:44] >> How about that?

[24:45] >> Do we have to specify any place? Can you

[24:48] just

[24:50] say

[24:52] >> a place a place that she that she

[24:56] >> Yes.

[24:56] >> You want to be nice to me?

[24:58] >> I just She's went above and beyond by

[25:02] far. Um, and I just think she deserves

[25:05] it. And

[25:07] >> let me just make a suggestion. Just

[25:09] before you get her, ask her

[25:12] >> what she

[25:13] >> That's what I was going to do. Yeah.

[25:16] >> Okay.

[25:18] Have a motion second. Any further

[25:21] discussion?

[25:23] Okay. All those in favor of the motion,

[25:24] please signify by stating I post. Same

[25:28] sign.

[25:29] >> Gift card to Roar Treat Farmers Market.

[25:32] [laughter]

[25:40] Dale got something to us about this part

[25:42] of Heritage Day. I have um some riders

[25:46] coming in

[25:48] and I'm trying to review some stuff to

[25:50] see what we've got pricewise and

[25:53] different things. So,

[25:56] it's never too early to get it figured

[25:58] out, but I think it's going to come

[26:00] together pretty easily now. But, we have

[26:03] the sound guys booked again and all that

[26:06] stuff's all squared away. So, I'm going

[26:09] to start working on the other stuff.

[26:12] The biggest part, the hardest part is

[26:13] getting to the main act.

[26:16] They get them to commit. They always

[26:19] want

[26:20] they don't want to put their eggs in one

[26:22] basket till the last minute. That

[26:24] doesn't help us much. But anyway,

[26:26] >> but you can get them cheaper if you cook

[26:27] them now.

[26:28] >> Well, that's exactly right.

[26:31] >> Around it.

[26:31] >> Yeah.

[26:33] So, what you know what you're doing. So,

[26:39] » no.

[26:44] who have ever thought

[26:47] to birth [clears throat] Betty White.

[26:49] >> Mhm.

[26:49] >> Yeah.

[26:54] » Okay. Thank you, Dale, for that. Any

[26:57] other committee reports we need to

[27:00] >> mural?

[27:01] >> Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. I got ahead of

[27:04] myself. Has anybody noticed that it's

[27:06] partially done? I've been going down

[27:09] every day.

[27:11] >> I've been going down in the evenings,

[27:12] too.

[27:13] >> It's It's sort of amazing, you know, how

[27:16] he does it. He cuz that's what he does.

[27:19] >> It's kind of fun to watch all kind

[27:21] >> Well, the good thing about it is it's

[27:22] went from mural planning to mural

[27:25] construction.

[27:26] >> Yeah, construction mirror completion.

[27:29] >> But it is it is amazing how and he's

[27:32] kind of started in the back and you can

[27:34] see the sky and then over here you can

[27:36] see the sunset. It's it's it's going to

[27:38] be something something good.

[27:40] >> We're going to have a show piece and

[27:42] that it's one. Okay. I apologize for

[27:46] skipping that. Thank you for

[27:48] now. Is there any other committee?

[27:52] Okay.

[27:54] Jason.

[27:55] >> Okay. Um quite a bit on the downtown

[27:57] revitalization. Uh

[28:00] spoke to the contractor. Um, of course

[28:03] the weather's been up and down here

[28:04] lately and uh the guy that's doing the

[28:06] concrete, they had to induce uh his wife

[28:10] into labor, but uh I think all that's

[28:13] straightened out. um within the next

[28:17] month, couple weeks, uh he's going to

[28:21] uh complete the pouring of the concrete

[28:23] for the sidewalks and the foundation for

[28:25] the gazebo and flag pole and all the

[28:29] other adjoining uh uh sidewalks and

[28:32] walkways from the splash pad to the

[28:34] playground to the farmers market and

[28:36] into the main building where the

[28:38] bathrooms are. Um they're al they next

[28:41] week they'll also be raising um the drop

[28:44] inlet uh that we were worried about

[28:47] that's that's low to the ground. Next

[28:49] week they'll be pulling it up uh ground

[28:51] level um and put a smaller grade on top

[28:54] so there won't be any fall hazards there

[28:57] and it'll keep us from having to put up

[28:59] anything that number one we have to pay

[29:02] for and number two is not as attractive

[29:04] as it would be if he does raise it up.

[29:06] Um, and I think I think he's doing the

[29:09] right thing there. I think that's a

[29:11] really really good idea. Um,

[29:14] and then uh he said once the muralist

[29:17] has completed the painting, they will

[29:18] start doing the awning coming off of the

[29:21] building on the the north side over the

[29:24] concrete area where there will

[29:25] eventually be seating um underneath the

[29:28] mural and then the awning on on that

[29:30] site. Um,

[29:33] another thing, and I reached out to the

[29:35] county today, and this is going to be a

[29:37] question that I don't know if you want

[29:39] to answer now or just wait and and see,

[29:43] but is when we're going to shut the

[29:44] splash pad down. Generally, things go

[29:48] from Memorial Day to Labor Day,

[29:51] but also there's going to be days, in my

[29:54] opinion, in September when it could

[29:56] probably be used. October, maybe not.

[29:59] September.

[30:00] I just think we're going to get some

[30:01] kickback. It it probably won't get used

[30:04] as much in the evening because it's

[30:06] going to cool off more. But I don't

[30:08] think that the Labor Day date might or might not be the right time to

[30:14] shut down the splash pad because a lot

[30:16] of times in the month of September

[30:18] during the day it gets up to 80° se high

[30:21] 70s and we can decide what what you want

[30:24] to do with that. that I I reached out to

[30:26] the county to see, and I'll be honest, I

[30:28] did that today. I haven't heard back

[30:31] because on their website, they don't

[30:33] have an official date that they're going

[30:34] to shut the pool down. I didn't know if

[30:36] y'all wanted to coincide with the

[30:38] shutdown of the pool or if you wanted to

[30:40] give, you know, on into September to

[30:42] make a decision because, in my opinion,

[30:44] like I said, there are going to be warm

[30:46] days in September where people are going

[30:48] to want to use that splash pad. So,

[30:51] >> I think the county has always shut the

[30:53] pool down too early. People have

[30:55] complained about that for years.

[30:58] >> Well, I mean, the good thing about it is I mean,

[31:00] >> all we got to do is get in there and

[31:02] turn a lever and put something on

[31:03] Facebook saying, "We left out there,

[31:06] they won't turn it turned on, so you

[31:08] don't really going to lose by leaving

[31:10] it,

[31:10] >> right?

[31:10] >> Just use your judgment about that. Does

[31:12] that mean letting somebody

[31:13] >> But I mean I I would like to have to

[31:16] announce a date at some point in time to

[31:19] where you know they know well this is

[31:21] it. They they told us this was coming

[31:23] instead of getting down there and

[31:25] figuring out that it's not working one

[31:27] day.

[31:27] >> Is the pool at the lake is it having a

[31:31] problem right now?

[31:34] >> Something about

[31:34] >> I think it

[31:38] I don't know. I have I haven't heard any

[31:40] comp starting earlier than it used to.

[31:44] Labor Day was always we shut down later.

[31:49] >> Memorial Day was iffy because a lot of

[31:52] time was cold.

[31:53] >> Yeah.

[31:53] >> It was

[31:55] >> we have a lot a lot more flexibility

[31:57] with the splash pad than you do with the

[31:58] pool.

[31:59] >> Yeah.

[31:59] >> Because it's only getting used it's only

[32:01] getting used when somebody's down there.

[32:04] But, you know, the point I'm getting at

[32:06] is the contractor wants that to be shut

[32:09] down before he comes in to try to do the

[32:11] pavilion because that's going to cause a

[32:14] safety hazard cuz he doesn't want kids

[32:15] going in and out of that splash pad

[32:17] while while they're trying to erect and,

[32:19] you know, nails being dropped and stuff

[32:21] like that. So, that's something that I

[32:23] think we can we can plan for

[32:26] as we go along. Um, and then make a

[32:29] decision. But I I don't in my this is

[32:31] just my opinion as somebody who goes

[32:34] down there on a regular basis. I think

[32:36] it'll get used in September more than a

[32:38] swimming pool would.

[32:41] Um

[32:43] uh also when that happens, that's when

[32:45] the parking will be put in and the

[32:48] lighting portion. and we had talked back

[32:50] and forth and I we can talk as a council

[32:54] about there's a bunch of styles of of

[32:57] lights, pole lights that can be put up

[33:00] down there whether we want hanging

[33:02] basket ones or things like that. we can

[33:04] cross that road. But um cuz he did

[33:07] mention that to me when I talked to him.

[33:08] But the lighting will be a portion of

[33:10] the project after splash pad shut down.

[33:13] So they wouldn't have any problem with.

[33:15] Of course, the playground still going to

[33:16] be open, but you know, it'll be less

[33:18] traffic for them to have to work around

[33:19] and and uh less danger for for the the

[33:23] citizens.

[33:25] Um

[33:26] >> question.

[33:26] >> Yes, sir. Is there going to be any

[33:28] conflict with the sidewalks

[33:32] and underground wiring?

[33:36] >> No.

[33:38] Okay. Not that he's brought to my

[33:40] attention and I've talked to him about all of it.

[33:43] >> Okay. And I don't know if I had

[33:46] mentioned, but that one sidewalk that he

[33:49] has laid out now, if you'll notice,

[33:51] there's I think I may have talked about

[33:53] this. There's a space in between kind of

[33:55] where the drainage goes to the detention

[33:57] pond. That's going to be a bridge going

[33:59] over it. So, it'll be a walkway to a

[34:02] bridge back to the walkway.

[34:04] Um,

[34:07] farmers market. We've scheduled two

[34:08] Friday events. I don't know if this is

[34:11] smart or not smart, but we'll figure it

[34:13] out. I think my initial idea was that it

[34:16] would be a good thing, but Leslie wanted

[34:18] to do them on September 18th and October

[34:21] 16th based on the fact that September

[34:23] 18th is a is homecoming weekend for the

[34:26] Friday football game. So that'd be more

[34:29] people in town possibly to push more

[34:32] people toward the farmers market. And

[34:34] then October 16th is also the date of

[34:37] another home football game. So, um, if

[34:41] we're going to give it a try, let's give it a try. The only thing that

[34:44] I do see that may be a problem with the

[34:46] 18th, and I can probably lean on you

[34:49] with this, if we don't want to make that

[34:51] an official date, is parking at the

[34:54] farmers market with the parade.

[34:57] >> They do the parade in the middle of the

[34:59] week now.

[35:01] >> Yeah, the parade's usually on Wednesday.

[35:04] >> Okay.

[35:05] Then that won't be an issue. Well,

[35:07] then that won't be an issue. For some

[35:08] reason, I was thinking it was on the

[35:09] same Friday as the game.

[35:13] >> Um, yeah, back in the good old days.

[35:15] >> Yeah.

[35:16] >> Uh, the splash pad signs have been

[35:18] ordered. I ordered them exactly like

[35:20] Chill Howie had done. Um, just changed,

[35:23] you know, some of the the signage as far

[35:26] as what Chillh Howi had for them. They

[35:28] were 270 a piece for two signs. Um, and

[35:32] I went ahead and ordered two of them for

[35:34] each gate that goes into the splash pad.

[35:36] So, whichever way you go in, you do know

[35:40] they're aluminum. Um, they recommended

[35:44] doing 3M coating on it because it would

[35:46] last a lot longer and wouldn't wouldn't

[35:48] fade as the the sun and and years go on.

[35:51] So, those have been ordered through

[35:53] Smart Signs, which is who show how he

[35:54] got theirs through.

[35:56] Uh, spoke to the pickle ball contractor.

[35:59] the materials have been ordered um and

[36:02] have yet to come in. Uh we are scheduled

[36:05] to be on his uh to get his guys down

[36:08] here. Uh but they're waiting on the

[36:11] materials to come in. They're also doing

[36:13] a couple projects right now. One

[36:15] sidewalk project and the other one is a

[36:16] pickle ball. And he said he would also

[36:19] price lighting and basketball courts

[36:21] while he's while he's down there doing

[36:22] it, but I have not got that quote yet.

[36:27] Uh the water plant uh the Philipp

[36:29] Springs water plant is running

[36:30] efficiently and the town has figured out

[36:33] which you know we did have a utility

[36:35] committee meeting uh but I just did want

[36:37] to touch on some of our water

[36:38] accountability issues that have occurred

[36:41] in the past. um with the age of Tony Ror

[36:45] who is from Virginia rule water. Uh he

[36:48] came down here we uh we actually have a

[36:52] uh a term contract with them where they

[36:55] come down and find leaks for us if we're

[36:56] having trouble. Uh and he came down no

[36:59] charge to us. Of course we do have a fee that we pay them in dues. Um,

[37:05] but we did find some differences in our

[37:08] numbers that we were reporting for our

[37:10] water accountability and uh, we fixed

[37:13] some of those issues and it's brought

[37:15] our water accountability down and in

[37:17] some instances as much as 20% down. Um,

[37:24] phase 12 of the sidewalk project, uh,

[37:30] I'm sure most of y'all know what I'm

[37:32] talking about. the issue that we're

[37:35] having with this project and really they

[37:38] said that they had ran this through most

[37:41] of their uh

[37:45] most of the other project managers in

[37:47] the throughout the state of Virginia and

[37:49] this is something that they've never

[37:51] really ran across and that is that

[37:54] entrance into the lodge building

[37:56] which makes that right there not ADA

[37:59] compliant.

[38:01] So, what we're trying to figure out is a

[38:02] way to get around

[38:07] that entrance. Um, because, you know,

[38:10] obviously the building has to have an

[38:12] entrance, but the entrance is theirs

[38:14] now, is keeping our sidewalk project

[38:17] from being 100% ADA compliant, which

[38:21] they will not fund a project that is not

[38:23] 100% ADA compliant. Now, there are some

[38:26] options um that we've tal I talked about

[38:30] in the meeting that I had with the uh

[38:33] the engineer and VOTE representatives.

[38:37] Uh and there's some options that that we

[38:40] want to look at and they're going to

[38:40] make a recommendation on which one they

[38:42] want to go with. Um

[38:45] but that is something we're working on.

[38:47] And the big hold up on this has been how

[38:51] to handle that one entrance because it's

[38:53] something that even the most senior

[38:55] project managers had never ran into. Um,

[38:58] and it may be something that we have to

[38:59] get, you know, a contingency of the

[39:02] people

[39:04] ownership of that building together and go over and find out what's the

[39:08] proper way to handle the situation

[39:11] because like I said, obviously they have

[39:12] to have an entrance, but you know, do

[39:14] they want to move the sidewalk out? do

[39:16] they want to tear it down? And there's

[39:18] just just options that we don't know

[39:20] what the answer to is yet. Um

[39:26] uh then the last thing I have um is

[39:31] there's another joint meeting Monday,

[39:34] August the 31st

[39:36] uh at the Wiffville

[39:39] uh meeting center.

[39:45] That's all I have unless you have any

[39:47] questions.

[39:47] >> 7 o'clock, right?

[39:50] >> Got an email today.

[39:53] I'll get that for you in just a minute.

[39:55] >> I think it's

[39:59] » um I will I will say this as well. Uh

[40:02] just in case uh anybody complains, I

[40:06] I'll let them know that that I'm the one

[40:08] that did it. Uh there was a lot of signs

[40:13] in the rightway that are not there now.

[40:16] Um [clears throat]

[40:18] if anybody complains that they don't

[40:21] have their signs, they are stored at the

[40:23] town shop.

[40:24] Um and I also talked to a couple people

[40:27] about mowing into the road and they said

[40:31] they would remedy the situation, but

[40:32] we'll keep an eye on that.

[40:37] You ever found out through

[40:41] >> teleport? He I called him twice this

[40:43] week and he still ain't called me back.

[40:55] » Mr.

[40:57] Have we g ever gi Have we ever given any

[41:01] more thought to purchasing the lodge

[41:05] building?

[41:06] >> No, sir. It's never been brought up, but

[41:08] it's not something, you know, any time.

[41:14] >> I will say, Mr. Lewis, that that was one

[41:17] of the options that was talked about.

[41:22] I think it's that it deserves

[41:25] consideration.

[41:28] Um,

[41:33] I don't think we should I think we

[41:36] should make an offer

[41:39] or at least consult

[41:42] with the owners of that building to see

[41:46] what

[41:48] arrangements could be made for purchase.

[41:53] I think it would I I think it would

[41:55] benefit us

[41:58] to own that piece of property if we're

[42:02] going to have an event center next door.

[42:07] I I don't think there's much we could do

[42:09] with the property

[42:11] other than demolish the building to make

[42:14] a park.

[42:17] I think we should give that some

[42:19] consideration.

[42:21] Would

[42:23] you like for me to reach out to an

[42:24] appraiser?

[42:26] >> Would you like for me to reach out to

[42:28] stepping in here? That's ain't going to

[42:30] be no problem to ask right now. Then the master of the lodge is sitting

[42:35] beside me here. So, let's He's right.

[42:40] Bob's right. Let's Let's

[42:42] get that out. What they got to have and

[42:44] all that. Let's pursue it. Uh

[42:48] >> let me let me talk to V dot cuz um quite

[42:52] honestly that was one of the options

[42:54] that was mentioned to me

[42:57] >> sure that it would be listed

[42:59] >> but

[43:01] let me see how they recommend or if they

[43:05] have any issue or any guidance on the

[43:08] way that needs to happen.

[43:12] Okay.

[43:15] » Raw retreat was built

[43:19] around the horse.

[43:23] » It's come back

[43:24] >> and it's it seriously it's come back.

[43:27] Yes, sir.

[43:28] >> But the streets were not designed for

[43:32] automobile travel. I I New York City had

[43:36] to do the same thing because at one time

[43:38] the way they dealt with the road apples

[43:41] they were called street sweepers

[43:44] and they dumped it in the river it

[43:46] killed the river.

[43:48] >> So yes it's it's a matter of history

[43:52] >> but part of the the big problem with the town it was built around the

[43:58] horse.

[43:59] So, you know, we there's nothing no need

[44:03] wine and whatever like that and it it's

[44:06] just what it was and and my living

[44:10] memory there were still a lot of horses

[44:12] that traveled when I was a kid. And

[44:18] so, in other words, we we will I know

[44:21] that the that the Masons will

[44:24] if you don't ask, you can't be told

[44:27] anything. So, we'll ask and then we'll

[44:30] go from there.

[44:33] So, with that said, so we don't drag

[44:35] that. We don't have any information yet.

[44:37] But Bob, it's a good suggestion and that

[44:40] uh we need to probably put that in

[44:44] unfinished business, don't you think?

[44:48] To the discussion. I mean, that that way

[44:51] we won't forget. We have been known to

[44:53] forget. Get tied up in the moment. So,

[44:57] with that said, we like we'll see that

[44:59] and we'll

[45:02] be hard to find somebody to talk to.

[45:06] >> I imagine not.

[45:10] >> Okay.

[45:11] >> I will say this as well. Um, we might be

[45:15] able to

[45:17] use that money in kind

[45:20] as our 20%.

[45:24] Basically, basically what you're saying,

[45:26] basically V dot uh projects are 8020 80

[45:31] v.20 US.

[45:33] >> Um we may be able to use that as in kind

[45:36] money saying, you know, we spent our 20%

[45:39] on land acquisition to keep the project

[45:43] moving. Uh and that be our 20%. I don't know if if we can do it that

[45:48] way, but I know that there has been

[45:50] inind money. It's called in kind money,

[45:53] but it it's basically money upfront that

[45:55] you've used to keep the project going uh

[45:57] as a town to cover your 20%.

[45:59] >> Those are all things that need to be

[46:02] looked into.

[46:03] >> Right. But that I just want to that that

[46:05] is a possibility.

[46:07] >> Not let the ball be dropped and thus

[46:10] miss an opportunity.

[46:11] >> That's right. Now's the time. That's

[46:13] right. That it is.

[46:17] Okay.

[46:19] any other issues?

[46:22] If there's not, we get lucky to

[46:26] do current report.

[46:28] >> Have they seen those? Have you all seen

[46:31] these?

[48:20] >> Mhm.

[48:22] >> There you go.

[48:23] >> No answer.

[48:24] >> What vehicle did we spend $2,000 on this

[48:27] time?

[48:29] >> Yours. Tires or something?

[48:31] >> Tires and roads and boats.

[48:41] You don't have to put that on.

[48:45] I was involved in procedure.

[48:57] The tires was gone and brakes. So I held

[49:00] off on the rotors long enough for the

[49:02] brakes.

[49:07] wasn't a 20-y old vehicle.

[49:10] I rushed it through.

[49:16] I have one more question.

[49:18] >> Yes, ma'am.

[49:18] >> Um,

[49:20] anything

[49:22] going on with the

[49:24] properties,

[49:26] >> the tax sales?

[49:27] >> Yeah.

[49:29] Um,

[49:33] did do you have a do you remember seeing

[49:35] Monica's TACS

[49:37] uh

[49:38] >> contact in there where she'd had

[49:40] conversations with them?

[49:42] >> We'll we'll look through old emails and

[49:44] find out who Monica had contact with and

[49:46] call if we can cuz it was my

[49:49] understanding they were supposed to have

[49:50] been advertised. Um, and

[49:55] there's some other issues that we have

[49:58] to where

[50:00] I think some things need to be changed

[50:02] through that tax system cuz basically

[50:05] they're sending these people uh

[50:08] collection notices and it's really not

[50:11] telling them what the collection is for.

[50:14] um some of the other localities that use

[50:16] tax for some reason they list say you're getting delinquent taxes and

[50:21] we've ran into this several times on a

[50:24] 2006 Nissan and a 2017

[50:27] Suburban. this does not break down what

[50:31] they're and that needs to be changed in

[50:33] my opinion cuz these people are calling

[50:35] us saying but what are these taxes for

[50:38] you know what am I paying for you know

[50:40] and I'm not going to pay this because

[50:41] they don't see that yes this was a

[50:43] vehicle that I that I owned during that

[50:47] time frame so they're not they're

[50:48] telling us we've had we've had several

[50:51] conversations over the phone so I need

[50:53] to reach out to them anyway to get that

[50:55] fixed and I'll ask that question but

[50:57] we've got to change. And me and her and

[51:00] Carolyn uh had t me and Locky and

[51:03] Carolyn had talked about we've got to

[51:05] get the wording on the how they're

[51:08] sending out to our customers. It's got to list what they're actually

[51:15] going after taxes for because and I

[51:17] understand that. I mean, if I just got a sheet with a with a number on it, not

[51:22] itemized, I I would wonder what they're

[51:25] sending it to me for. So, I need to have

[51:28] conversation with him anyway. So, I'll

[51:29] ask that question.

[51:31] >> I have one more question, Mr. Mayor. I

[51:34] know he's perfectly legal and he has a

[51:37] business license,

[51:40] but the Crossroads Garage,

[51:43] it seems to keep growing.

[51:46] And uh I was told that he was planning

[51:51] to move this business, but I don't see

[51:54] that happening in some time has passed

[51:57] since I was told that. But it's a mess

[52:00] out there.

[52:02] >> I said something to him the other day

[52:03] about down there.

[52:06] Yeah, they got a bunch of

[52:08] >> I mean I I was in the understanding that

[52:10] as that the like cars were going to come

[52:13] go out of there over time, but I don't

[52:16] think

[52:16] >> it's not happening.

[52:18] >> Who owns that property now? Is the man

[52:21] there?

[52:21] >> No, Mr. Bales. Yeah, Mr. Bales own

[52:28] her husband used to run the uh tool

[52:31] truck.

[52:32] >> Oh,

[52:33] >> okay. Yeah,

[52:38] » Bob, is there a limit?

[52:43] you can stole outside the garage?

[52:45] >> But there

[52:47] >> is noticed

[52:49] >> the problem is Well,

[52:53] it it wouldn't be grandfathered in

[52:54] because the ownership has changed. The ownership

[52:59] has changed. If it was still the

[53:00] original owner, it would be

[53:01] grandfathered in. But there is in our

[53:03] zoning something called a uh automobile

[53:07] junkyard or

[53:10] uh

[53:11] something like that. And and there is a number on that zoning as far

[53:16] as how many vehicles are considered.

[53:19] >> Um it looks like a junkyard.

[53:20] >> Well, the thing is and it's different

[53:22] than than I know we've I know we've had

[53:25] issues in the past, but it's different

[53:27] than uh Mr. Klein down here cuz Mr.

[53:29] Klein has vehicles coming in and out.

[53:31] So, I mean, you know, it's a service. I

[53:34] don't see a service there other than

[53:37] just storage.

[53:38] >> There's a large amount of big ones on

[53:39] there. Yeah. They're not turned over.

[53:43] >> Who can afford that many?

[53:47] >> Unless they belong to somebody else and

[53:48] they're paying rent on it. That makes

[53:50] sense.

[53:51] >> Well, he was in off the highway. He's

[53:54] charging

[53:56] >> charge an insurance company a fee to

[53:58] store.

[53:59] >> Yeah. Well,

[54:01] >> I mean this Billy down here, he's got

[54:04] car.

[54:08] » I don't know.

[54:10] >> We think Don't you have to have lots and

[54:15] just

[54:20] » Yeah, it has to be

[54:22] a story.

[54:23] >> Yeah, he's got a story.

[54:25] >> To be in a building, but it's supposed

[54:28] to be in

[54:31] Yeah, he's got to finish in there.

[54:36] » Yeah, that's overflow lot.

[54:39] >> But anyway, my my point is

[54:42] >> I remember you checking on that.

[54:44] >> It's growing.

[54:45] >> Yeah, it's not getting small.

[54:47] >> Nothing's happening there.

[54:48] >> Okay.

[54:49] >> It can't grow.

[54:50] >> Yeah. Somebody had reported one time

[54:52] that he was moving on. That was that was I talked to the guy who works

[54:57] for him there and he said they were

[54:59] moving to a place out on 16 somewhere.

[55:03] >> Uh but that's been months ago.

[55:08] >> Yeah.

[55:08] >> It's been at least it's been at least a

[55:10] year.

[55:10] >> Nothing's happened.

[55:12] >> It might be something we need to talk to

[55:15] about

[55:19] might get some action.

[55:22] >> Okay. Any other questions? Don't want to

[55:26] leave anybody else. Okay. your own

[55:29] advice to the

[55:34] don't move guy.

[55:37] I

[55:41] love you.
