If somebody got hurt in a building or
[36:09] something, our insurance would start
insured.
[36:11] » Our insurance would still cover.
>> No other questions.
[36:15] » We just cut the power to it.
>> Anybody have any questions? If you want
[36:20] to, you go over and look at that, but I
just say the same. [clears throat] It's
[36:25] me. It'd be like hurting cats.
But we did do that. Okay.
[36:34] Leave that as is. Uh, number six,
properties. Greg, you got a list?
[36:40] » Well, I drove around and uh Josh and I
got together. He he got a list and he
[36:47] has the list and we pretty much agreed
on everything.
[36:52] » Okay.
[37:01] Good.
>> Good.
[37:05] » Anything get further on that.
[37:14] All right, we move on.
Curb on Nashville Street
[37:19] » should be done this week, weather
permitting. That was the last update I
[37:23] got.
>> That's what I got when he was
[37:25] » Y.
>> Okay.
[37:28] Any questions on that? That was last
year that he did this and and so I was
[37:34] hoping
[clears throat]
[37:37] we get this done pretty quick.
Uh, okay.
[37:41] We move on. All right. Number eight,
Howard County Ordinance for Flood
[37:46] Hazard.
Now remember
[37:50] long time ago, poor Megan was considered
the blood plane administrator or
[37:57] something.
>> Yeah. And I did not like her in that
[38:00] position since she had no idea about any
of that. So I asked the county to just
[38:06] take it over for us and they agreed to.
So all of this paperwork, they've just
[38:11] included us because I didn't want Megan
to have that responsibility. So, I would
[38:16] hope that we would pass that. So, Megan,
she's been calling me sleepless. Can't
[38:22] get worried about especially what three
weeks ago she was on the clock.
[38:27] » Since this is just a regular ordinance
on this here, can we go on the first one
[38:31] and spin the rules and pass it on
second, third tonight?
[38:34] » Or would you rather wait next?
>> I'd rather wait just because it's so
[38:37] indepth and does have penalties and
things like that. I
[38:40] » You like that part?
I just and like I said once it passes
[38:44] just give it to me and I will hand it
over to them. But
[38:49] » no just make a motion to pass on first
reading.
[38:51] » What's the ordinance there on that?
>> I'll make a motion to pass the flood
[38:55] ordinance on first reading.
>> It's got uh it is 26 BCC030.
[39:02] » Okay. Motion
>> as stated.
[39:04] » Oh, sorry. That motion is made and
second passes or introduce this on the
[39:08] first reading and we'll take it up in
October. Is there any discussion on
[39:12] this?
>> Second.
[39:14] » Oh J.
>> All those in favor say I.
[39:18] » I. I.
>> Those opposed same. Motion carries.
[39:22] » Thank you.
>> Government at work right there.
[39:27] » When it comes to that stuff, I've dealt
with that too much over the years.
[39:30] » Yeah.
>> The best thing you can do is say I don't
[39:33] know.
>> Yeah.
[39:33] » Move on. Well, I do appreciate the like,
yeah, [snorts] Corbin will do it. There
[39:38] was no hassle. They kept me in the loop.
So, I was thankful for that.
[39:46] » Did that did that. Okay. [clears throat]
Uh, new business, basketball court,
[39:52] Rooseville Town Park. Roger.
>> Uh, this is something I brought up about
[39:57] three years ago. It'll be three years
ago next month.
[40:01] Some of you may not be aware of it. I
don't know.
[40:04] Uh, and there we didn't we didn't hear
any answer from anybody. We just and Don
[40:10] and I was talking about it. He said, "Go
ahead and get quote, see what we can
[40:13] do." That what this is about is we have
one basketball court, one basketball
[40:19] goal.
My idea was to double it and put a
[40:22] second goal.
Uh, after measuring that didn't work.
[40:27] It's too close to the pavilion.
So, we backed it off. instead of going
[40:32] another 26 feet. That one is 26 feet
from the goal to the back edge.
[40:38] Uh adding 20 feet and putting a second
goal on the west end.
[40:46] Um after looking at things, I decided to
and talking to Don, we we got a quote on
[40:53] a goal that matches the other end for
two reasons. aesthetic. And
[41:00] the second reason, that one's been there
18 years, and it hasn't broke. It hasn't
[41:05] caused any trouble, and I think it's a
nice looking bowl.
[41:11] So, I got a drawing if anybody wants to
see it. I got a quote from
[41:19] Row, Anthony Row. He's the same guy
that's been doing our concrete work down
[41:23] at the park.
Uh Don and I it was a lot less than Don
[41:26] and I thought it was going to be.
>> That has to have some fill if we decide
[41:30] to do it uh on the west end to keep it
level. That really drops off going west.
[41:38] And he was going to put the fill in
stone and compact it and 5 in depth
[41:44] concrete.
[41:47] And it's 20 by 51.
and it would include the new footer pad
[41:53] for the goal post.
And if we decide to do it, we'd have to
[41:57] wait for the uh Jbolles that comes with
the post so they can be put in the
[42:02] concrete when he pours the concrete that
attaches the post to the
[42:07] » How much is the boat or the gold in
that?
[42:10] » The the quote from row was 136.
the quote on a uh
[42:19] goalpost. [snorts] It's a If anybody
knows anything about gold post, it's a
[42:22] » Those are expensive.
>> It's a Gorilla is kind of what we have
[42:26] out there. Uh was shipping $25.49.95.
The best I could figure. I didn't call
[42:32] anybody. I just looked at on the
internet and tried to figure out. And it
[42:36] says if we decide to do it, Megan, I'll
have to go over it with you.
[42:41] They said if you pay by credit card, go
ahead and include the tax
[42:46] and then they'll refund it. But if you
don't want to include the sales tax, you
[42:50] can call them and work out agreements
with getting
[42:55] that your tax exempt. I don't know how
they won't pay. If the if the board
[43:01] would want to do that, we we'll figure
it out. I have a phone number for it's
[43:05] in Indianapolis.
the place. Does anybody want to see any
[43:09] of this paper drawing?
[43:15] » Want to see
[43:20] » that
[43:23] the dotted line is the the addition.
[43:29] » If you have any questions about the
goalpost, you got the other guys. I
[43:32] could I could look them up for you. It's
got all the specs. It's uh like I said,
[43:38] we have any trouble with that one that's
out there. It's a heavy gauge metal. It
[43:43] is adjustable, but we have that one
padlock, so it can't be changed.
[43:47] » And and I'm sure that's what we would do
if we if we did it.
[43:51] » Does it shoot from here? Is it a
fourpoint? [clears throat]
[43:55] Um, almost
>> the whole idea with this behind my my
[43:58] thinking when I brought it up
>> is you can't go by there in the summer
[44:02] without seeing bunch of kids out there
playing basketball and there's one
[44:06] basketball.
>> Uhhuh.
[44:08] » And I think if you did this, they could
have two pickup games. And then maybe
[44:14] it's a short court obviously, but uh
even what we had out there is not half
[44:20] of a foot regulation basketball court.
So if they're the only ones out there
[44:24] playing, they can play full court if
they wanted to. But more the idea was
[44:27] there's instead of kids sitting over
there on the bench and can't play, they
[44:31] can get bring their basketball and have
two pickup games, two or three full
[44:37] players. That was my idea. It's always
busy. Uh I think there's more kids would
[44:41] use it. Uh it's my understanding we're
going to lose some basketball sometimes
[44:46] at the Lions Club possibly.
>> We'll have both basketball and pickle
[44:52] ball. But if we're playing pickle ball,
you can't play basketball. That That was
[44:54] my point. Yeah.
>> During the day, it's going to be mostly
[44:58] pickle ball.
>> Yeah.
[44:59] » And then once school's ended,
>> basketball gets
[45:03] » And I honestly don't other than
somebody's house, I don't know of any
[45:05] other place kids can play basketball.
>> So, I just thought it was a good idea.
[45:10] » We used to play down there in O'Neal's
up there. Uh, are you making that a
[45:16] motion? That' be a total of
>> uh
[45:19] » 16,150.
[45:23] » Yeah, a nickel short of that.
>> Something like that.
[45:25] » Yeah, I'll make
>> Okay, there is there a second?
[45:28] » Second
>> discussion.
[45:31] » Can I ask a question since we're the
parkour?
[45:34] » Yes.
>> Um
[45:38] where exactly is this? You said west.
>> Yeah.
[45:41] » And I'm thinking west, you're going to
be hitting the pavilion.
[45:45] No. You You would like to see a drawing?
Yes. Yeah.
[45:48] » I'll bring it to you.
>> One thing for discussion. I want to make
[45:53] sure I let you guys know there's a tree
out there that we have.
[45:58] » We can move.
[46:11] » Okay. I I will say one thing about about
this only because we when the Eagle
[46:17] Scouts put that um what is that thing
called? Goff, we were going to put it
[46:22] out in this area and the kids didn't
want us to because they wanted to play
[46:26] football out there.
>> They said that's the only place they had
[46:30] to throw a ball to play football.
So I I if this [clears throat] is the
[46:36] same area I don't
>> Yeah.
[46:38] And um anyway,
>> a lot of kids that wanted a basketball
[46:43] court. I
>> Yeah, I talked to a lot of kids. I
[46:46] didn't do any kind of a legal survey. I
didn't get one person, one kid tell me I
[46:49] want to play football.
>> Okay.
[46:51] » They all thought a second basketball
goal was heaven.
[46:55] » Well, every kid probably would.
>> I remember have to wait down there at
[47:00] Lions Club get on game unless unless she
got in a fight and he took it over like
[47:05] we did. I I expected Rick to to attack
[47:12] some time on that tree.
>> It's a tough call. It's a uh I think
[47:15] it's a red oak.
>> Red oak.
[47:17] » Red oak.
>> And I It's probably too big to move.
[47:20] » It's probably too big to move. That was
the one that was attacked with a
[47:22] machete.
>> Yeah.
[47:23] » But we trimmed it up and it did recover.
>> Yeah. Self. Matter.
[47:28] » If I'm not
if I'm if I'm not correct, tell me if I
[47:32] think you guys had to remove a tree to
put the new park in. Yes.
[47:36] » Yeah. So,
>> I didn't I didn't warn that one, though.
[47:40] » I I love trees, too, and I don't like
getting rid of trees, but it's too
[47:43] close. The trunk would actually be about
I think a foot and a half from the the
[47:48] plane cement with the overhang of the
limbs and stuff. It just
[47:55] would be in favor of planting another
tree to replace that one.
[47:58] » Well, I don't know. I don't know if we
can remove that or not. For sure. I'll
[48:03] let you I'll let you guys figure it out.
>> I think Rick disagreed with me that it's
[48:06] probably a little big to move.
>> A little big to move.
[48:09] » Too big to move.
>> Unless you get a real
[48:12] » clamsh.
[48:20] Well, just that we are doing um
an upgrade at the Lions Club and trying
[48:27] to make that into a full court with two
new basket back courts. Now, the
[48:33] painting on it will also be for pickle
ball during the day. The Lions have
[48:38] purchased a portable pickle ball court
pickle ball court net that can go into
[48:45] like a deck box along the side. So,
we're hoping that that project will move
[48:51] forward.
21st Caw is coming.
[48:57] » I uh I got a comment on pickle ball real
quick. I didn't know this. I looked this
[49:02] up. You know, it was in actually started
in 1965.
[49:07] It just took off over time.
>> All right. Any more discussion?
[49:12] » I I also want to add that I I spoke to
Craig. There will be some back fill
[49:17] necessary
>> because of the height that if you did it
[49:21] » and we would Don suggested we do that
oursel if we decide
[49:26] » I think we can man that's not a big deal
it was all right we get the dirt right
[49:31] » left and and Anthony said there'll be
some do that there'll be some dirt where
[49:36] he'll have to excavate
>> up up close to that and I told him we
[49:41] want to save the dirt and he said sure
>> yeah we always use that Okay. Is there
[49:46] any other discussion?
All those in favor say I.
[49:51] » I. Those opposed same. Motion carried.
Okay. Did I leave out anything on
[49:58] so far on this
before we go into this other part? Okay.
[50:04] Comments from the guest.
Jill.
[50:08] Yeah.
You better not comment.
[50:13] Rick, you have any I think
[50:17] Just just remember this is Sep. I'm
going to try to get there
[50:21] » September 18th.
>> It's going to be tough. I'm going to
[50:25] place. I won't be at the very beginning,
but I have to leave.
[50:32] » And the 10th I won't be here at all.
I'll be down.
[50:36] Um,
>> you can come to the good neighbor
[50:37] celebration.
>> I saw that. That's the 19th.
[50:40] » Is awesome. They're terrific.
[50:44] » You'll their music. So, and so they play
Baby Shark and you might not
[50:48] » I hate that song.
>> Baby,
[50:50] » oh, I remember that. I remember that.
>> Okay.
[50:54] » All right.
>> Anybody else on that? Okay, we'll move
[50:57] on comments. Greg, you any comments?
>> No.
[51:01] » Jake?
>> Uh, we got a a resident who moved here
[51:05] from the city and they were happily
impressed by the town of how much stuff
[51:11] actually is going on in our town. So
kudos to everyone. They did get stopped.
[51:17] Uh so good job for the I think someone
someone's stopping for the golf cart or
[51:23] something. So um she was laughed but uh
she was happy that we have such a great
[51:29] community and there's so much going on
in such a small community and she was
[51:34] complaining about the recycling but I
told her to take her comments somewhere
[51:36] else. So
>> tell her we can just move it move it to
[51:40] Western. No, she was just saying it's
great, but there was people who don't
[51:44] break down boxes and there's people who
leave stuff there shouldn't be left
[51:48] there.
>> I know I spent about 10 minutes down
[51:51] there one day doing city.
>> I just had two boxes.
[51:55] » Yeah, she came from Yeah, she come from
>> I saw a thing on Amazon cut.
[51:59] » So, great job. Great job.
>> Anything else, Jake?
[52:03] » Nope. That's all I have.
>> Roger.
[52:06] Amb is working on a project for spring
of 2027.
[52:11] Um, if I can get board approval at that
time, um, putting in nine flag poles up
[52:17] by the inner urban station like in a
circle, that very east lot at the we
[52:23] don't have to give approval for it, but
just I want you guys to think about it.
[52:27] » East lot, that's
>> very east lot.
[52:30] » Very out there by the trees. Not in
front. out in front by that one tree.
[52:34] » So, it will be nine flag poles and it
will be like a gateway to the banners
[52:39] and everything. So, and it'll have a
little monument, little ambbitz monument
[52:44] by it for all veterans.
>> Well, when you give us a
[52:49] » Yeah, I'll draw on and stuff like that
when you do that.
[52:52] » I just wanted to give you a heads up
that we're working on a grant to get it
[52:56] get it put in. It all be lit.
[53:00] Keep in mind the parking lot for all the
coffee drinkers and really
[53:04] » Yeah.
>> get a coffee shop.
[53:05] » That's on the west.
>> I thought that's going to be a bar.
[53:09] » Bry's beef and brew.
>> Yeah,
[53:12] » that is TV.
>> That's all I got.
[53:15] » Megan, you have anything else before we
do the claims?
[53:20] » I don't think so.
>> All right. I just want, like I said
[53:22] before, I want to make a comment on how
how grateful I am for all the hard work
[53:27] everybody's been doing
impress new people and hopefully one of
[53:32] these days we'll be able to
get that uh
[53:38] trail through here and that doesn't seem
like it's going it's a long ways off. I
[53:42] have I haven't heard much about that.
Have you Rick?
[53:46] » Yes. The rails the trails program opens
in 2028.
[53:51] They had what $und00 million that went
through it.
[53:56] » The rails for trails program to even
apply for it is 2028.
[54:01] » Okay. I didn't understand what you said.
My bad.
[54:03] » Thank you.
>> The biggest hurdle I see what I've seen
[54:07] is that correct me if I'm wrong. This is
just got is that trestle.
[54:11] » No, the biggest problem right the
biggest hurdle is Norfick Southern.
[54:15] » Yes.
>> Wanting to be reimbured
[54:17] » heavily.
4.8.
[54:22] That's not
>> That's not much.
[54:24] » Just our section.
>> Pardon?
[54:27] » I heard it was $4.8 million just in our
section.
[54:31] » Really? Well, let's just send them a
note and end that there for
[54:41] » Well, maybe we need to get send them.
I'm sorry that I believe their track is
[54:45] overgrown. We need to send them a Put
that on your list, Greg.
[54:49] for
>> them to clean up the
[54:51] » find them. They've got 30 days to clean
it up.
[54:56] » You know what I mean?
>> Those rails are rusting and they're not.
[55:00] Could Could it be an environmental
hazard they're causing for our town?
[55:05] » I guess you're not going to get as far
as I know about the railroads. Nobody
[55:10] has any luck with that. I mean, they
abandoned them if they could be easy,
[55:13] but they just
>> It's like trying to fight insurance.
[55:16] » It is history. I've heard on that is if
they abandon it, the other railroad
[55:21] company got has the rights to it and
they're wanting the rights to it. That's
[55:25] why years ago,
>> it's crazy that it's like cemeteries.
[55:29] Everyone has a different set of rules
that they can follow.
[55:33] » I was just going to tell them that we're
going to put a data center there.
[55:38] » Well, again, I have no f nothing
further.
[55:43] Not anybody have anything for Craig or
anybody? All right, I'll entertain a
[55:47] motion to adjourn.
>> Oh, I'm sorry. Presenting claims. What
[55:52] is the claims number on that? Read it
out loud, Megan.
[55:56] » Okay. Claims are 92,253.86
[56:02] for the months.
>> Did you go to Target this month?
[56:08] » No. That's cheap compared to the last
three.
[56:12] » I entertain a motion to accept the
>> motion to approve claims. Second. Any
[56:16] discussion? All those in favor say I.
>> Motion passes. All right. Now I
[56:22] entertain a motion to adjourn.
>> Motion.
[56:25] » Second.
>> Motion was made and second. All those in
[56:28] favor say I.
>> I.
[56:30] » I was just kidding about the data
centers.
[56:33] » Okay. before I get jacked up on this.
