[0:08] May I ask the town clerk to take the roll call?
[0:13] President?
[0:16] Councilwoman Mason, here. Councilman Baker. Here. Supervisor Clements. Here. Turn the attorney, Deanna Herr. Here. And myself.
[0:24] Let's make a motion to approve the August 26th 10 board workshop. We'll be right back a second. All in favor? All in favor? All right.
[0:40] and $25, which is a little bit higher than normal, but that's because of the hunting licenses.
[0:46] I paid $52 to Ag and Markets for the dog span new program.
[0:52] DEC is going to swipe $5,457.48 out of that for their portion of the licenses.
[1:01] And Department of Health, $112.50 for marriage licenses, leaving a balance to the town of $14,603.2.
[1:11] There is a free rabies clinic coming up in October, on October 17th, on May 12th, it's
[1:17] going to be held at 3776 Old Route 20, which is the Skodak Highway Garage.
[1:23] There is a link to sign up, you must sign up before going over there, it's on the town's
[1:27] website.
[1:28] Please go on our website, townacanelake.us, and you just click on the link and it brings
[1:32] you right to it.
[1:33] You fill it in if you have a problem or don't have a computer, give us a call and we'll
[1:37] do it for you over the phone.
[1:39] Household Hazardous Waste is September 19th and that you also have to sign up for and that link is also on the town website.
[1:47] Same scenario, click on it and if you have any troubles give us a call and again we'll do it for you.
[1:53] And the townwide garage sale is coming up I believe it's September 19th.
[1:59] A lot of people call townhold, they think the town sponsors it but that is sponsored by the CN Lake Business Association.
[2:04] You can go to their website and or their Facebook page and that is where you will be able to sign up for it.
[2:11] The town doesn't have any way to sign up, so I just wanted to let everybody know that.
[2:14] That's it.
[2:15] I do a couple of things this evening.
[2:18] The town is looking for a person that will work up to 20 hours a week.
[2:23] Our planning clerk had to step down due to personal matters.
[2:27] If anybody who's interested in part-time position, please apply to the town clerk's office and be up to 20 hours a week.
[2:35] Additionally, our Climate Smart Committee is planning a fall clean-up day of Butler Park
[2:39] on Saturday, September 26th.
[2:42] It's looking to be a relatively small clean-up day, just mainly focusing around the Butler
[2:46] Park area.
[2:47] In the Interested Parties, please reach out to the Climate Smart Committee, or our Planning
[2:51] Coordinator, Anna Rizzo.
[2:55] Additionally, the Burden Lake Preservation Corps, a couple of years ago, applied for a grant
[2:59] through FEMA as part of the Joint Consent Order Agreement that we have.
[3:03] with the Burden Lake Preservation Corp and Ritzler County.
[3:06] The grant is for just a bit over $4 million
[3:08] for the remediation of the issues going down on Burden Lake Road.
[3:12] That grant was approved by Congress.
[3:14] I think it was a week or two ago.
[3:16] So that grant is in the early stages of the approval.
[3:21] You know, the larger project is going to need additional funding sources
[3:24] and an actual set of construction plans.
[3:28] So still in the very early phases of getting this remediated,
[3:31] How removing the right direction now that we've gotten a good chunk of the money secured and with that you turn it over to Deputy Supervisor Nippie's
[3:41] Councilman Gossar
[3:44] Couple things. I know it's kind of early, but I wanted to get the date out there for the
[3:49] 2026 holiday parade
[3:50] I love talking about it Friday December 4th, which is the first Friday in December as always
[3:57] More information over the next month or two will be coming out
[4:00] but for those listening and watching December 4th, emergency services, everybody's back in swing with their food, able part breakfast is kicking back up on the 27th.
[4:10] We're selling barbecue, we'll be the 24th.
[4:13] I hope my glass is on that one.
[4:15] 24th.
[4:16] And Tavredin will be doing their pizza night, which is always successful on the 19th.
[4:20] So the 27th, 24th, and 19th, there's no shortage of food in the town.
[4:24] And then the veterans will be doing their chicken barbecue in October, be the last one for the year.
[4:28] We've had great support for that this year, so that is all I got.
[4:33] Thank you, Councilwoman Mason.
[4:34] Yeah, for the San Lake Center for the Arts. Currently it's the Art of Us.
[4:39] What this does is chronicles the life of a rescue horse named Spirit.
[4:43] There is a nonprofit that was created by Susan Cain in 2004 called Unbridled Sanctuary
[4:49] and they create artwork and photography and all of that and it's all about Spirit.
[4:55] Susan and along with other representatives will participate in a gallery
[4:59] sitting on September 19th and September 26th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. September 18th
[5:07] at 730 there's going to be a performance by Michael Benedict Jazz vibes on
[5:12] September 25th at 730 there's a free concert sponsored by Troy St. Agrabil and
[5:18] Bonnie Concrete. It's called Tonight's the Night. They're the number one Neil
[5:22] young tribute ban in upstate New York. And also just this Friday night there was supposed to be
[5:28] style on the stage. It was a fashion show. It has been canceled. And that's all I have.
[5:35] Thank you, Councilman Baker. I just one thing for me, the Nopeats Committee will be holding their
[5:39] annual families on the path to wellness at Camp Adventure on Birdon Lake Saturday, September 26th
[5:46] from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. They've done it for a few years now. We food, refreshments,
[5:51] fishing, games for the kids and guest speakers as well, just speaking about how
[5:56] we can combat the drug and alcohol addiction. That's it for me. Thank you. With that
[6:01] I'll turn it over to Kevin for Public Works.
[6:06] I've agreed to night two. Last couple
[6:07] weeks we've been doing a lot of milling and paving. We paved the spring and road
[6:11] where we had the issue from the July 29 storm. Today we cut the key ways in for
[6:16] be the road, so we'll be paving that tomorrow and that pipe job will be completed and then
[6:21] we'll be on the next couple of weeks but enough for all the paving jobs that we have going.
[6:26] Evan, I just want to say thank you. I've sent you emails and you are so responsive you and your
[6:32] team and also I've heard from residents that have called in and you guys are right on top of everything
[6:38] so I just want to say thank you. Great thank you. Yeah, I've got a bunch of good guys down there
[6:41] so it's like as soon as we can something comes in we try to get on as fast as possible and take care of it.
[6:46] I did all that, too, because I email him all the time on people and things, and he always gets back to them.
[6:52] With that, I'll turn it over to any one who wishes to speak for public comment. Please step up to the podium.
[7:02] And if there's no public comment before we get into the business portion of the meeting,
[7:06] it was just reminded to me that we should do a moment of silence that it's been 25 years since September 11, 2001,
[7:13] and that is just two days away, and it is very surprising how quickly time goes by that it's been 25 years.
[7:20] So before we give them the business portion of the meeting, we're just going to do a brief moment of silence for everyone who lost their life that day,
[7:40] and now we'll resume the meeting and get into the business portion of the meeting.
