We've been getting, I mean, obviously this is a 1999 unit. 40 00:04:49,960 --> 00:05:04,780 So it's pretty good use animal. We do a lot of maintenance and upkeep on them, and it just kind of depends on the you know traffic of the park, but how how long are parts available generally because it's kind of very yeah kind of varies. 41 00:05:05,060 --> 00:05:10,700 We stick with miracle and Burke and those because they tend to hold parts a lot longer. 42 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,840 Some of the other companies kind of change their lines and shift things. 43 00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:21,080 So these two organizations that we need to generally use, they keep them a lot longer. 44 00:05:23,540 --> 00:05:25,660 So this is just the structure. 45 00:05:25,860 --> 00:05:31,220 The surface below is still stuff that you don't get scraped up and all of that. 46 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,920 Yeah, so this is only the structure and then the swings and then add a bay with a saucer swing. 47 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,700 The surface thing right now that we have in there is sand. 48 00:05:41,220 --> 00:05:44,000 So that means the criteria for fall and all that. 49 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:50,620 And well, it's a source well, which is a good thing. Is there, was there any other bids under source world? 50 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:58,560 We took prices with Burke on a few different structures and size wise and all of that. This one came in way less. 51 00:05:59,540 --> 00:06:05,360 We're getting everything here with the swings added for less than what the structure would cost. 52 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,260 Yeah, it's pretty shipping. 53 00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:11,680 Yeah, it's pretty shipping, which that's nice. 54 00:06:12,380 --> 00:06:15,140 Well, that was saving about 6 grand. 55 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,780 Yeah, it's nice. 56 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,540 For these powder coated or today up, 57 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,700 some kind of a grubber edge coating. 58 00:06:21,860 --> 00:06:25,520 Yeah, they're powder coated and then the slides and all that are the hard plastic. 59 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:28,800 Nice. 60 00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:32,940 And the materials on this asin with the newer sets. 61 00:06:32,940 --> 00:06:36,760 It's designed so it doesn't get really hot in the summer kids can still use it. 62 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,500 Yeah, and this park actually is pretty shaded with the cottonwood trees in there. 63 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,740 Yeah, it's a pretty well protected area. 64 00:06:43,380 --> 00:06:47,260 Yeah, and then this isn't the exact color scheme they just give us one. 65 00:06:47,420 --> 00:06:50,560 And so we can pick whatever color scheme we want for that to be cool. 66 00:06:50,840 --> 00:06:52,900 So they'll match with the swings and all that. 67 00:06:53,840 --> 00:06:57,380 Is this something we can install ourselves or do we have to bring people in to do this?

82 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,040 Yes. 83 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:33,300 Okay. 84 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:34,560 Solomon. 85 00:07:34,900 --> 00:07:35,100 Yes. 86 00:07:35,460 --> 00:07:35,980 Yes. 87 00:07:35,980 --> 00:07:36,140 Yes. 88 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:37,240 Yes. 89 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:37,740 Yes. 90 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:38,020 Yes. 91 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,560 Okay. 92 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:41,800 Resolutions and ordinances. 93 00:07:42,020 --> 00:07:49,320 Council to consider action on the first reading of the ordinance and many discuss with municipal code dealing with alarm systems for both the fire department and the police department. 94 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,380 Mayor 95 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,360 Council, Attorney General Harchman. 96 00:07:55,320 --> 00:08:00,780 Before you use the, for your considerations, the first reading on an ordinance amending. 97 00:08:01,620 --> 00:08:07,540 Chapter six, eight and 16 dealing with fire alarm systems. 98 00:08:09,340 --> 00:08:10,740 Police and fire alarm. 99 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,100 The biggest change in it is just removing language in their. 100 00:08:16,100 --> 00:08:19,680 They're dealing with the communication center. 101 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,460 They are no longer as of July 1st this year, 102 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,320 no longer monitoring alarm systems. 103 00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:27,540 So we're just cleaning up the language. 104 00:08:27,540 --> 00:08:31,620 I'm ending it to remove anything that has to deal 105 00:08:31,620 --> 00:08:34,520 with their involvement with these systems. 106 00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:38,780 Additionally, the language was modified. 107 00:08:39,700 --> 00:09:03,630 and these then are chapter eight and the fire that we put in the specifics to along with fire code who code monitor those systems and people with these systems have been advised many of them of our transfer to I believe there's only a couple of left that haven't overworked through that weekend. 108 00:09:04,410 --> 00:09:07,310 and same with the law enforcement side of things, 109 00:09:07,530 --> 00:09:11,210 burglar alarms and those types of alarm systems have all been 110 00:09:11,870 --> 00:09:13,730 in that transition switch over. 111 00:09:14,250 --> 00:09:16,050 So these will all go through private companies 112 00:09:16,530 --> 00:09:17,250 for the monitoring? 113 00:09:17,590 --> 00:09:17,750 Yes. 114 00:09:18,570 --> 00:09:22,070 Tell them a little bit about why they're not monitoring. 115 00:09:22,870 --> 00:09:26,230 Yeah, so the decisions for the county 116 00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:31,130 to stop monitoring the software that they use called microkey 117 00:09:31,130 --> 00:09:38,770 was extremely outdated, did not meet the system that they were using, did not meet in the current 118 00:09:38,770 --> 00:09:46,230 UL standards or any of those for monitoring alarms. And then to upgrade that was at a rather 119 00:09:46,230 --> 00:09:53,310 significant cost. So they they believed it best to and they're not a call summary either. So 120 00:09:53,970 --> 00:09:59,070 they believed it best to put that in the hands of third parties that are UL certified, 121 00:09:59,070 --> 00:10:02,250 I had the capability because I was doing that monitoring, 122 00:10:02,430 --> 00:10:03,790 which does make sense. 123 00:10:06,430 --> 00:10:11,190 So there's lots of, so it mentions were required 124 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:12,890 by the fire prevention code. 125 00:10:13,090 --> 00:10:15,790 Which one, the city of Scott's plus adopted IFC 126 00:10:15,790 --> 00:10:20,530 or the state's adopted conglomeration 127 00:10:20,530 --> 00:10:24,070 of national, or an MBA code. 128 00:10:24,070 --> 00:10:31,190 depends. If it's if it's a regulated facility, so one that has a license of some sort, it falls 129 00:10:31,190 --> 00:10:36,810 under the state code. If it's if there's no license to it, it falls under the city code. 130 00:10:37,390 --> 00:10:43,330 Those are both pretty similar. So those that are under the state code and are those 131 00:10:45,500 --> 00:10:52,380 shepherded by the state prime marshal's office. We are delegated authorities, so we we still 132 00:10:52,380 --> 00:11:03,690 maintain authority over those. Do you have any idea how many systems in the city might 133 00:11:03,690 --> 00:11:13,090 be central supervising stations? I don't often talk in my head but I know it's a good number of them. 134 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:25,160 Tom and here has language about it used to have language because it's been stricken about permits 135 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:30,080 That's for alarms. Now that'll all be done through private companies. And so we won't have to do any permit issues. 136 00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:38,700 Well, we have never done any permit issues. That was all the county. The county is still going to do some permitting because they want to be able to track. 137 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:45,180 But they're going to create their own ordinance on how it's going to look rather than using our ordinance. 138 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,520 So they're going to permit the systems that they're not having anything to do with any longer. 139 00:11:53,260 --> 00:11:54,420 How does that work? 140 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,120 Well, I'm seeing the ordinance. 141 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:02,020 I mean, we're going to get a permit to not do something. 142 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,560 Well, they're going to have to apply for a permit so that the county knows they have one. 143 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:12,860 And that kind of answers your question that we talked about this morning. 144 00:12:13,380 --> 00:12:15,880 That's how they'll keep up the date and know where they're at. 145 00:12:16,260 --> 00:12:17,200 Who has one? 146 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,800 Who's responsible to respond? 147 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,960 I guess it really makes sense. 148 00:12:22,220 --> 00:12:26,720 The permit is a mechanism to make sure it does what the requirement says it does. 149 00:12:27,140 --> 00:12:29,640 And the registry is just how many there are in town. 150 00:12:29,860 --> 00:12:32,500 And that would probably be a better. 151 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,040 But for the sake of this, that was referred to as permitting. 152 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:44,100 I guess I never thought about it and looked at the weekly things. 153 00:12:44,220 --> 00:12:47,560 But how many, what percentage of calls do you think we have that are false alarms? 154 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,300 for fire alarms. For fire alarms, it's a very low number. 155 00:12:54,580 --> 00:12:58,480 Typically, if the fire alarm goes off, there's a reason for it. 156 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:03,750 Whether it's burnt food or someone pulled the alarm, something, something that intervenes. 157 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,300 So the alarm is functioning properly. 158 00:13:07,860 --> 00:13:11,580 There may not be a fire. There may not be an emergency that arises out of it. 159 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,840 But it is functioning as we have very few. 160 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:19,640 I can't think of very many and looking back at that, 161 00:13:19,980 --> 00:13:22,120 we're talking probably less than 10 a year 162 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,480 that are due to a malfunction of some sort. 163 00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,080 Yeah, that's, it's hard for the Poland, 164 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,900 for the malicious polling of the lawrooms. 165 00:13:32,420 --> 00:13:34,440 Let's say, for example, when you talk about 166 00:13:36,060 --> 00:13:38,600 a system function the way it was supposed to 167 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,500 because it detected cooking smoke, 168 00:13:41,580 --> 00:13:44,340 would that not be a problem with the design 169 00:13:44,340 --> 00:13:48,000 of the system that's not the right system for the design if it keeps going off. 170 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:57,740 Well potentially there could be a design flaw in there but I can say that we don't generally go 171 00:13:57,740 --> 00:14:05,780 to the same location more than once or twice in a given year. So I would say very few if any design 172 00:14:05,780 --> 00:14:11,600 flaws. I notice in the place when there is a maximum, of course, I don't think there's any 173 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:17,680 that I know of at least locally or nationally like fire stuff require much to respond 174 00:14:17,680 --> 00:14:25,560 to any alarms. But there's four a year and then you can start charging. Is there, would 175 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:31,000 it, is there any appetite to have that ability and fire alarms in case somebody decides 176 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,980 they don't want to pay attention to their system and just let the fire department keep responding? 177 00:14:35,980 --> 00:14:47,380 I think in talking to Tom and listening and I don't think there's a need for that to be honest with it. It's such a small number. 178 00:14:48,340 --> 00:14:48,440 Okay. 179 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:57,360 So the county is no longer monitoring these and these third party vendors have to do this. So then do businesses have to pay for that. 180 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,580 And not the county. 181 00:15:02,460 --> 00:15:29,940 So the three, the three classifications are the central station, remote station, and proprietary. Those are early supervisor services, central station, very few of them exist because they're so expensive. They you contract for somebody to respond every alarm and take care of stuff, remote is just people looking at a board kind of like the kind of like the county did and then calling the right place. But this others that the owners responsible for it. 182 00:15:29,940 --> 00:15:32,640 but in the cases of a central supervisory station, 183 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,300 they know they don't know anything about it, 184 00:15:35,420 --> 00:15:36,820 they don't want to know anything about it, 185 00:15:36,900 --> 00:15:37,840 but know they're responsible. 186 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,320 So they contract with somebody to be responsible for it. 187 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,640 And so that's who you really do. 188 00:15:42,940 --> 00:15:44,860 So there's very few central stations, 189 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,220 supervisory services. 190 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,700 And the monitoring station has to meet certain criteria 191 00:15:49,700 --> 00:15:51,160 that is very expensive. 192 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:52,460 Interesting. 193 00:15:52,980 --> 00:15:54,860 So on all this language that's in here, 194 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,980 someone there's about testing of the alarms. 195 00:15:56,980 --> 00:16:02,040 Do you guys have, do we have a code where we test those for businesses every so often? 196 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:10,720 Yes, it's within the fire code, depending, there's some different schedules that different 197 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:17,360 alarms have to fall under, but everyone does, and everyone that we've been dealing with 198 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,060 has been very diligent about testing their alarms. 199 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,180 That is a segue into one of the other comments I added. 200 00:16:26,180 --> 00:16:31,240 In the section where it says no alarm system, shall be silenced or reset prior to arrival 201 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:37,960 of the required department personnel except for like the silence you're receiving during 202 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,900 it to us, which is pretty obvious. 203 00:16:41,900 --> 00:16:47,040 But so let's say we have one of those times where you're in disposal with other calls and 204 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:51,260 it's one of those where you're not able to respond or certainly significant delay. 205 00:16:51,260 --> 00:17:01,060 Is there any thought of training specific people on if there's a, what's it look at, if there's a true problem or not? 206 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:12,940 I'm thinking of a hotel and guests that we want to come back to town, but then they're listening to a fire alarm for an untold number of minutes and don't see anybody. 207 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,920 Is there any, is there any thought been given to that? 208 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,400 But we do have a couple of facilities that we've worked with in the staff. 209 00:17:23,360 --> 00:17:24,620 Who tells us not one of them? 210 00:17:26,380 --> 00:17:31,060 The issue that we have run into is people resetting and we don't know where to start looking at. 211 00:17:31,180 --> 00:17:33,500 No, yeah. I'm not seeing the reset. I'm saying the silence. 212 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:35,140 Reset should never. 213 00:17:36,020 --> 00:17:36,120 Yeah. 214 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,280 Typically when they, they go to silence that they reset. 215 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:47,280 So that's it's been that we have worked for some staff like hospitals and one of them. 216 00:17:48,220 --> 00:17:50,520 Yeah, imagine that would be. 217 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,180 Yeah, that could. 218 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,380 Any other questions for Tom. 219 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:58,140 Thank you. 220 00:17:58,780 --> 00:17:59,560 Thank you. 221 00:17:59,660 --> 00:17:59,780 Thank you. 222 00:18:00,820 --> 00:18:01,440 Thank you. 223 00:18:03,970 --> 00:18:12,630 In ordinance of the city of Scott's blood Nebraska amending the Scott's blood municipal code at chapter six article six section 10 chapter eight. 224 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:38,770 Article 3 and Chapter 16, Article 2, dealing with alarm systems for both the fire department and police department, revising several sections, repealing several sections, and removing fees for monitoring and permitting a fire in police alarm systems, repealing existing provisions of the municipal code not consistent with this ordinance, providing for an effective date and providing for publication in pamphlet form. 225 00:18:40,450 --> 00:18:45,670 Okay. Council to consider action on the first reading of the ordinance authorizing the issuance 226 00:18:45,670 --> 00:18:50,450 of general obligation highway allocation fund pledge bonds for improvements to a certain 227 00:18:50,450 --> 00:18:57,650 street of the city. Mayor and council, Scott King is here from Piper Sandler, 228 00:18:57,790 --> 00:19:04,050 discuss this and answer any questions you might have. Good evening, Mayor and council. 229 00:19:04,050 --> 00:19:31,090 So Scott, can you reply for Sandler as Kevin mentioned this is an ordinance on first reading considering the issuance of up to 2.35 million dollars of high allocation bonds city currently has an issue outstanding of and and these bonds would be with their anticipate be a five year amortization, that's how we've structured the issue much like the 2018 bonds that were done with a five year amortization as well. 230 00:19:31,090 --> 00:19:34,130 So it was the 2020 bonds, I guess, had a five-year amortization. 231 00:19:35,830 --> 00:19:40,930 Again, the city has a significant amount of highway allocation revenues that come in each 232 00:19:40,930 --> 00:19:41,250 year. 233 00:19:41,630 --> 00:19:47,730 States that should allow cities to pledge those revenues to secure bonds that are then also 234 00:19:47,730 --> 00:19:51,710 backstopped by the limited property taxing authority in the city. 235 00:19:52,050 --> 00:19:53,330 So it's a very strong credit. 236 00:19:53,970 --> 00:20:00,010 This financing we would anticipate marketing just like we have in the past without a bond 237 00:20:00,010 --> 00:20:00,450 rating. 238 00:20:00,450 --> 00:20:07,970 we've talked in the past occasionally about having an issue of the city's rated by a rating 239 00:20:07,970 --> 00:20:12,970 agency like Moody's or Standard of Bores. This is of a small size and a short amortization. 240 00:20:13,390 --> 00:20:17,630 There isn't enough time to pay back the cost of the rating. That's the reason we've been 241 00:20:17,630 --> 00:20:21,470 looking to do it on a non-rated basis, but it's still considered a very strong credit. 242 00:20:22,230 --> 00:20:28,750 In today's market, we would expect that the true interest cost will be something around 3.9 percent. 243 00:20:29,410 --> 00:20:38,990 and that the plan deposit from the proceeds of the bond issue is in the amount of $2,213,520. 244 00:20:39,050 --> 00:20:44,730 I would prefer to lane to describe exactly which projects we're talking about. 245 00:20:45,150 --> 00:20:52,810 They're going to be funded with this project, but then again, we would anticipate December of 2031 being the final maturity of the bonds. 246 00:20:52,810 --> 00:20:57,750 The ordinance itself is what we've used in the past, what's called the parameters ordinance, 247 00:20:57,970 --> 00:21:03,330 which means the council approves certain parameters and authorizes certain officers to 248 00:21:03,330 --> 00:21:05,950 finalize the terms and conditions of the sale. 249 00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:13,510 In this case, it would be in a principal amount not to exceed $2,350,000, true interest cost, 250 00:21:13,890 --> 00:21:21,810 not to exceed 5% again in today's market, we're around 3.9% so we're well under that 5% threshold 251 00:21:21,810 --> 00:21:27,230 and underwriting this count, which is a fee paid to Piper Sandler to underwrite the bonds, 252 00:21:27,450 --> 00:21:32,750 not to exceed 1% and a final maturity, no later than December of 2031. 253 00:21:33,530 --> 00:21:37,550 So as long as the results of the sale meet all of these parameters, 254 00:21:37,890 --> 00:21:42,490 the authorized officers have the ability to approve those terms and conditions. 255 00:21:43,330 --> 00:21:47,610 We're currently working with bond council to draft the offering document that'll be used 256 00:21:47,610 --> 00:21:54,990 to sell the bonds after the council's third meeting and consideration at the October 15th 257 00:21:55,330 --> 00:21:59,270 We would anticipate getting to market with the bonds probably around the middle of October 258 00:21:59,270 --> 00:22:04,090 and delivering the proceeds might be early in November this year. 259 00:22:05,010 --> 00:22:05,710 This year? 260 00:22:05,970 --> 00:22:06,150 Yes. 261 00:22:06,410 --> 00:22:06,730 This year. 262 00:22:07,450 --> 00:22:08,270 And that's it. 263 00:22:08,350 --> 00:22:13,310 Thank you for reminding that reminds me that one of the other provisions of the ordinances 264 00:22:13,310 --> 00:22:15,070 is one that the Council's considered before. 265 00:22:15,930 --> 00:22:22,270 We are asking you to declare the bonds, a designated bonds bank qualified, which means 266 00:22:22,270 --> 00:22:27,110 that banks that buy the bonds, with you doing taking that action, banks that buy the bonds 267 00:22:27,110 --> 00:22:33,750 not only receive the income on a tax exempt basis, but they're also offered an offset of the 268 00:22:33,750 --> 00:22:37,310 cost of funds through their own tax filings. 269 00:22:37,610 --> 00:22:41,670 So there's a double benefit for banks to be buying the bonds that are designated bank 270 00:22:41,670 --> 00:22:47,250 qualified makes it very, it makes them very appealing to banks and that is a 271 00:22:47,250 --> 00:22:51,510 calendar year test. You have to state your intent to issue less than 10 million 272 00:22:51,510 --> 00:22:57,150 dollars of tax exempt bond in this calendar year 2026 for these bonds to be 273 00:22:57,150 --> 00:23:01,790 designated a bank qualified with this being the only issue that you're doing this 274 00:23:01,790 --> 00:23:10,070 year. That's that's an easy lift. Okay. Questions? So the bond issue like with 275 00:23:10,070 --> 00:23:11,790 the swimming pool doesn't count against this one. 276 00:23:12,050 --> 00:23:12,550 That's separate. 277 00:23:13,510 --> 00:23:16,710 What if we were to issue the bonds in 2026, 278 00:23:16,970 --> 00:23:19,450 but I think the expectation is that there's going to be 279 00:23:19,450 --> 00:23:23,270 some time prior to the receipt of the sales tax 280 00:23:23,270 --> 00:23:25,990 and so forth that pushes the likely timing 281 00:23:25,990 --> 00:23:28,690 of that financing off into 2027. 282 00:23:30,270 --> 00:23:33,710 So this shouldn't like the the aquatic center 283 00:23:33,710 --> 00:23:38,830 back by sales tax had a longer term. 284 00:23:38,830 --> 00:23:50,270 And this one is a shorter term back by highway allocation funds and the appetite I think of the average citizen to not dip into property tax payment. 285 00:23:50,890 --> 00:23:59,890 Does is there in that five year period if the amount is kind of not the correct amount. 286 00:23:59,890 --> 00:24:07,510 Can it be, can it more be issued with the backstop of highway allocation for that? 287 00:24:07,810 --> 00:24:09,190 Could more bonds be issued? 288 00:24:09,950 --> 00:24:14,110 What do you, if you don't have it, if there's less than you thought? 289 00:24:14,610 --> 00:24:16,970 Yeah, I'd like that just like the aquatic center question. 290 00:24:17,170 --> 00:24:23,910 The good news is the city's allowed to actually use any funds that the city chooses to use to repay the bonds. 291 00:24:23,910 --> 00:24:28,910 that this is an obligation that forces the city to take the money from any one account. 292 00:24:29,330 --> 00:24:34,450 It's just the general funds of the city, but what we are pledging, what the city is pledging 293 00:24:34,450 --> 00:24:40,070 to the investors, is the receipt of the gas tax revenues, and then back stopped by that unlimited 294 00:24:40,070 --> 00:24:45,410 property taxing authority.

Okay. Council to discuss and consider action on the 2026, 2027 pay resolution and 512 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,900 authorize the mayor to sign the resolution. 513 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,320 Okay, Mayor and council. We have a treat for you now. 514 00:37:28,500 --> 00:37:39,380 Mayor and council. Pay resolution. We did our wage study and everybody's getting a 3% 515 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:49,820 We had to kind of extend the grades in there because we needed more of the top of the hourly and more of the bottom for the salary. 516 00:37:51,300 --> 00:37:54,860 Everybody's within their grade now. 517 00:37:55,200 --> 00:38:00,620 There was some lateral move either up or down and nobody lost money. 518 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,500 Everybody's staying kind of where they are. 519 00:38:02,860 --> 00:38:04,940 They just might be shifted around a little bit. 520 00:38:04,940 --> 00:38:18,380 But we just had a handful that was really easy to move around and other than that I think by just doing constant checking our city and making sure everything's good to go. 521 00:38:18,780 --> 00:38:22,760 We didn't have to make a lot of adjustments like five years ago we did. 522 00:38:24,380 --> 00:38:26,600 Are you doing it every year now, Cammy? 523 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:32,460 every five years, every five yeah okay because it's a third party so it does cost quite a bit but 524 00:38:32,460 --> 00:38:40,200 that gives us kind of out of it and they make that determination. Okay so when you said you 525 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:50,760 needed to move some people around that was to be in line with the current study. Yeah so the state 526 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,040 that you kind of guides us on how we can pay people. 527 00:38:54,700 --> 00:38:57,820 It has to be a 70% job match in our A-Cities. 528 00:38:58,780 --> 00:39:05,580 It also makes us look at, it has to be 90% to 102% 529 00:39:05,580 --> 00:39:07,760 within that range of the A-Cities. 530 00:39:08,260 --> 00:39:12,240 So if we're like too low, we've got to bump them up 531 00:39:12,240 --> 00:39:14,620 to make sure we're in that array. 532 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,700 If they're too high, we've got them down 533 00:39:17,700 --> 00:39:23,920 to make sure the movement because you look at the minimum and the maximum so if 534 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:29,020 somebody's in the middle of the base skill it's easier to adjust. They're at the 535 00:39:29,020 --> 00:39:33,140 top it's harder because we don't want to not give them raises so we've got to 536 00:39:33,140 --> 00:39:38,960 make sure we're within that range. So don't have anybody that's not going to get 537 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,320 a raise being able to adjust everybody because they're the base skill. 538 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:46,360 Where did they 539 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:47,300 that's got to bluff too. 540 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:54,240 So we do hearing Northclad, Northclad, 541 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:59,860 casings, each union has a different set. 542 00:40:00,660 --> 00:40:01,520 So it can vary. 543 00:40:02,780 --> 00:40:07,600 York is one of the actress's flares. 544 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,420 So this depends on when union and what they decided their race 545 00:40:11,420 --> 00:40:18,620 city is going to be for theirs and it has to be either half our size and it can't be more 546 00:40:18,620 --> 00:40:24,700 than double our size. So we can't look at like Lincoln no mom, that's too high. So we're 547 00:40:24,700 --> 00:40:29,260 going to stay within that very room. We'd have to stay in the state. 548 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:37,000 Yeah, can we have this contract? Is the call increase automatic and then the amount we add 549 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,120 that on this 3% would be a addition to the COLA? 550 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,360 No, the COLA is the 3%. 551 00:40:42,460 --> 00:40:43,720 That is the 3%, yeah. 552 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,460 The same p-scale, which is that in 3%. 553 00:40:46,460 --> 00:40:46,760 Okay. 554 00:40:48,460 --> 00:40:51,180 You mentioned something about 70%, 555 00:40:51,180 --> 00:40:54,180 and then 198 and 102, 556 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,700 is that different classifications of people? 557 00:40:56,780 --> 00:41:00,460 So the second percent is based on the job description help. 558 00:41:01,240 --> 00:41:05,440 So it has to be at least a 70% match in order for us 559 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:13,500 to compare them. So there's some jobs that maybe four cities will have that job, the rest 560 00:41:13,500 --> 00:41:18,840 don't. So it's not like a perfect match, but you need three or more to have a match. 561 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:26,620 And then the 98 is based on the salary. So we take the midpoint of everybody else's salaries 562 00:41:26,620 --> 00:41:32,620 together. And whatever the midpoint is, we have to save between 98 and 102 percent. 563 00:41:33,240 --> 00:41:37,580 for this case, not the actual, necessarily the actual. 564 00:41:37,580 --> 00:41:39,060 The hourly rate. 565 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:39,660 Okay. 566 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,740 That's for all employees or just certain ones. 567 00:41:43,060 --> 00:41:43,800 Oh, please. 568 00:41:44,260 --> 00:41:44,760 Okay. 569 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,060 I just got one last quick question since we have the chart up. 570 00:41:49,740 --> 00:41:52,560 So when we hire new firefighters or police officers. 571 00:41:53,340 --> 00:41:57,360 We bring them in with your yours and service as they would other jobs. 572 00:41:57,500 --> 00:41:59,320 If they have experience in their. 573 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:13,360 They're allowed to buy a, we will take into consideration, okay, for wages, it could even be vacation, it's a cool, so, okay, there's one pass, since we have that up there. 574 00:42:14,980 --> 00:42:16,100 Okay, thank you. 575 00:42:16,100 --> 00:42:22,280 questions for Camille? So she'll kind of like the last thing in a way this is based on state 576 00:42:23,660 --> 00:42:30,840 regulation and statute. It's somewhat of a formality then it is a choice. Correct. 577 00:42:31,540 --> 00:42:36,100 Well, I take there could be some choice but it could get us in trouble. No, I might get my 578 00:42:37,720 --> 00:42:49,080 I'm not saying I don't want to compete with people, it's just that there is a component 579 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,140 that seems like it's a, you have to do this. 580 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:53,540 Yeah, yeah, absolutely. 581 00:42:53,940 --> 00:42:58,620 Yeah, we don't get to say about this person's doing a good job, they get it. 582 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:08,880 I would also add that after this last wage and labor study, I think it was an indication 583 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,640 about what we've been doing has been right. 584 00:43:13,140 --> 00:43:15,680 We've been keeping up with the raised cities. 585 00:43:16,380 --> 00:43:19,760 You know, when we did that first wage and labor study, we were really out of whack. 586 00:43:20,580 --> 00:43:22,180 People got redlined. 587 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,180 I think we had water to that redlined. 588 00:43:26,180 --> 00:43:39,140 That was the time before I don't have to resign to anybody last time. Okay. I mean, they were too low or too high too high. So I think this was indication that things are in order. It's working the way that it should. 589 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:40,400 Yeah. I'll make some. 590 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:48,540 We had 136 employees. So just a handful of had to be adjusted.
