[9:39] Mhm.
[14:47] » It's like why is everybody crying? Let's
[14:48] stop crying.
[14:55] » Oh my god.
[14:56] >> Every single thing.
[14:57] >> Yeah.
[15:01] so funny.
[15:03] So is that going to be a
[15:08] » I don't.
[15:09] >> But still okay?
[15:11] Yeah.
[15:23] » What are you going to follow me to the
[15:24] next?
[15:26] I have a
[15:27] Our dog would need to run inside. Do you
[15:30] know that?
[15:33] » Okay, my sister has a house in
[15:39] » Almost hit a rattlesnake last night.
[15:42] >> What?
[15:46] » I have to drop hot candle.
[15:48] Somehow.
[15:49] >> I can fold.
[15:50] >> I did.
[15:51] >> You got to learn something.
[15:56] » Um, you know you want it.
[15:59] >> I'll trade you for your seat right
[16:00] there.
[16:03] » Well, sit over here so that it's not so
[16:05] stuffy.
[16:09] » What?
[16:09] >> I'll leave you alone.
[16:10] >> I'm good.
[16:12] I'm a pretty I can make it through the
[16:13] meeting without having to speak.
[16:15] >> Yeah.
[16:34] » How are you?
[16:35] Good to see you.
[16:37] got to sit through the
[16:39] meeting today?
[16:42] Hello.
[16:45] Okay, who found you? We're just laughing
[16:47] about the very long agenda to do one
[16:49] thing.
[16:52] It's just that they kind of weird
[16:53] sometimes.
[16:54] >> Yeah. Yeah.
[16:55] >> But that's nobody normally can make a
[16:58] claim to that.
[16:59] We didn't try our best.
[17:02] >> I agree with that.
[17:03] >> I told the mayor as we were talking
[17:05] together.
[17:11] Really mistake.
[17:13] Do we really want to be in the lower
[17:14] bracket?
[17:18] Exactly. And so
[17:27] » But I mean
[17:27] >> Just say it as many times as we can.
[17:30] We're just trying to do what the state
[17:31] wants us to.
[17:32] >> They're going to put you in the minutes.
[17:33] Do you want an SLS?
[17:39] How do you want it to be in the minutes?
[17:40] You mean
[17:42] Oh, so it's all agreed. So I I need to
[17:46] So she's going to put your name in the
[17:47] minutes. All of the people that are here
[17:52] So I didn't know how you wanted her to
[17:53] put your name.
[17:55] English or
[17:58] This guy
[17:59] >> All right.
[18:00] >> Thank
[18:02] Yeah.
[18:07] Your last name is Jordan somewhere?
[18:13] >> Where did you find it?
[18:13] >> It was right here.
[18:15] >> I didn't get that answer. Who answered?
[18:18] >> Thank you.
[18:23] » So we're good?
[18:24] >> Yes.
[18:24] >> Jason?
[18:30] It's okay. We like to welcome everybody
[18:31] to South Weber City Council. It's 6:00
[18:34] p.m. on Tuesday, May 12th,
[18:36] 2026. We'll begin
[18:39] I'll lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance
[18:40] and then we'll have a prayer by
[18:42] Councilman Davis.
[18:45] Please repeat after me.
[18:48] >> I pledge allegiance to the flag of the
[18:52] United States of America and to the
[18:55] republic for which it stands, one nation
[18:58] under God, indivisible, with liberty and
[19:02] justice for all.
[19:13] » Our Father in heaven, we're grateful to
[19:15] gather together tonight to discuss the
[19:17] needs of our city. We pray that thy
[19:19] spirit may be
[19:20] here with us so that we may make
[19:23] good decisions that help lead this city
[19:25] down a path that is
[19:27] good for all all the citizens. We are
[19:31] grateful for these opportunities to
[19:32] serve as we are this evening, and we are
[19:34] grateful for all those who
[19:36] put forth their
[19:37] blood, sweat, and tears into putting
[19:39] these meetings together and helping us ensure that we have the
[19:43] best city that we can.
[19:45] We ask special blessing be upon those
[19:47] who serve in
[19:49] our neighborhood and those who help keep
[19:51] us safe and more broadly
[19:53] in the country that we that we are
[19:56] able to enjoy the freedoms that that we
[19:58] get to enjoy and
[20:00] be able to uh
[20:02] continue to make memories and build
[20:05] friendships and long-lasting
[20:07] uh
[20:08] friendships. These blessings we pray for
[20:10] all of this in Jesus Christ's name.
[20:11] >> Amen.
[20:13] Thank you, Councilman Davis. Appreciate
[20:15] that prayer.
[20:16] We'll begin with uh public comments. If
[20:18] you've got a comment, we'd invite you up
[20:20] to the microphone, state your name, city
[20:23] in which you reside.
[20:25] Uh please be respectful. We'll allow you
[20:27] 3 minutes to speak
[20:29] and speak uh directly to the entire
[20:31] council. So,
[20:33] we'll open it for public comments.
[20:36] You have any prob? None tonight?
[20:39] Okay, it looks like we have no comments
[20:42] tonight, so we'll move on.
[20:45] We have a presentation, uh Community
[20:48] Care
[20:49] by Tiffany. She
[20:52] just walked in.
[20:53] >> Tiffany.
[20:54] >> Oh, you are. Okay.
[20:56] Come right on up.
[20:58] >> Yes, good evening. My name is Melissa
[21:00] Coates. I got here a minute late because
[21:02] uh we're going to be talking about
[21:03] youth, and my youngest is a 17-year-old
[21:05] informed me about 2 hours ago that she
[21:07] had a JROTC award ceremony at her school
[21:10] at North Ridge High. So, I'm glad to be
[21:12] here.
[21:13] >> Glad you could make it.
[21:14] >> So, I am here to talk to you about
[21:17] Communities That Care, our coalition.
[21:20] Um so, what we're really focused on is
[21:21] creating safe, healthy, connected,
[21:24] drug-free communities for our youth.
[21:27] I think we can all agree, regardless of
[21:29] where youth live, that's incredibly
[21:30] important that they feel connected, and
[21:31] we'll talk a little bit about why that
[21:33] is.
[21:35] So, Communities That Care, they exist in
[21:38] multiple locations, multiple states.
[21:40] What that looks like is community
[21:41] members like myself um and leaders like
[21:44] some of those that we have here who do
[21:46] this work day in and day out um that
[21:49] pair together to help our youth do
[21:51] exactly what I mentioned, right? So,
[21:53] we're volunteers from various
[21:54] backgrounds focused on decreasing youth
[21:56] substance abuse, prioritizing their
[21:59] mental health, and improving their
[22:00] mental health outcomes, and using local
[22:02] data, partnerships with organizations
[22:05] like Davis County Behavioral Health, the
[22:07] health department, the school districts
[22:09] to inform um what we're doing and
[22:11] provide funding through grants,
[22:13] using evidence-based strategies to do
[22:15] so. So, we'll talk a little bit more
[22:17] about what that looks like and how we
[22:19] determine what programs are going to be
[22:20] funded. And this includes not just Davis
[22:22] County, but also Weber as well.
[22:28] So, if we think about data-driven
[22:29] processes, sometimes it can sound very
[22:32] ooh, data, right? I personally love
[22:34] data.
[22:35] Uh many of us do, but
[22:38] the SHARP Student Survey, if you've
[22:40] heard of it, hopefully you have, um is
[22:42] an opt-in survey. You have to opt in at
[22:45] the district level, the parent level,
[22:46] the student level as well. It's a really
[22:49] incredible resource to give us
[22:50] information about the challenges that
[22:52] our students are facing, and it's more
[22:54] localized so that we're able to really
[22:56] focus our strategies on what is really
[22:59] going to best support the children in
[23:01] our communities. Okay.
[23:03] So, we take that data, we take listening
[23:05] sessions that have occurred with
[23:07] parents, school resource officers,
[23:09] school administrators, individuals that
[23:10] are surrounding our youth day-to-day,
[23:13] and then we use that in addition to
[23:14] public data from youth courts, police,
[23:17] etc. to select the specific
[23:20] evidence-based strategies that we apply.
[23:23] Okay, so we start with the data and
[23:25] then, makes sense, right? We use that
[23:27] data to inform our solutions.
[23:31] When we look just at Davis County
[23:32] between 2021 and 2025, it was pretty
[23:36] much a really good news story in terms
[23:38] of decreases that we've seen. Fewer
[23:40] students are reporting use of drugs,
[23:42] which includes alcohol and vapes.
[23:44] Um
[23:46] significant decrease in vaping in terms
[23:48] of reported having used once in their
[23:51] lifetime or within the last 30 days.
[23:53] Same thing for alcohol abuse. So, this
[23:55] is giving us some feedback that what
[23:58] we're doing is helping in those areas.
[24:00] >> What's the age group?
[24:01] >> So, the age group for SHARP for Utah is
[24:05] sixth through 12th grade. Six. Six
[24:08] through 12th grade. I'm sorry, every 2
[24:09] years they're given the SHARP survey or
[24:11] have the option to opt in.
[24:14] Um Davis County parents in particular,
[24:16] from the data that we have, they're
[24:18] doing a really good job setting clear
[24:19] expectations at home on what healthy
[24:21] behaviors look like, right? And what
[24:22] they're expecting of their youth. Youth
[24:24] mental health is improving. There are
[24:26] fewer students reporting concerns about
[24:28] depression, um thoughts of suicide.
[24:31] Marijuana use has decreased
[24:32] significantly, again, used once in a
[24:35] lifetime or more, um or within the last
[24:37] 30 days.
[24:38] That being said, there are still
[24:40] challenges facing our youth today, which
[24:42] is why the work we do is very important.
[24:45] Um the administrator of that survey,
[24:47] they're experts, it's safe, it's
[24:48] reliable. I've reviewed the data um
[24:50] myself before. It's really fascinating,
[24:52] again, if you nerd out on data, um but
[24:54] the bottom line is it it really helps
[24:56] inform what we're doing.
[25:00] So two of the things that we're
[25:00] continuing to focus on are decreasing
[25:02] the rates of youth substance use. Again,
[25:04] that would be alcohol, marijuana,
[25:06] vaping,
[25:07] um and also the rates of youth
[25:08] depression and those suicide indicators
[25:10] that are of particular concern.
[25:13] Many folks know those things kind of go
[25:15] together quite often. There's
[25:16] comorbidity, um where you may have
[25:18] individuals they're depressed, so
[25:19] they're trying something to numb the
[25:21] pain further and you end up in a vicious
[25:23] cycle.
[25:24] So in particular with substance use,
[25:26] alcohol use, nicotine use, the pouches
[25:29] have become really popular. I think if
[25:31] you go to any Maverick, you see the Zyn
[25:33] pouches being advertised. Um that's
[25:36] something kids see day-to-day, right?
[25:39] Walking to and from school. Youth
[25:41] marijuana use, focus on decreasing that
[25:43] as well.
[25:44] In terms of youth depression and suicide
[25:45] indicators, mentioned that already, um
[25:48] but really focus on understanding if
[25:50] youth are making a plan and how we might
[25:52] be able to support them.
[25:54] So some of the ways that we're doing
[25:55] these things to address those risk
[25:57] factors, we want to decrease the risk
[25:59] factors and improve the protective
[26:01] factors or the things that are going to
[26:02] help prevent kids from using substances
[26:04] that they shouldn't be if they're going
[26:05] to be healthy, as well as make sure that
[26:07] their mental health is in a good place.
[26:09] So with many of these things,
[26:13] either you want more or less of them. So
[26:15] parent setting and monitoring, as much
[26:17] as parent parents can be involved and
[26:19] monitor what their kids are doing, which
[26:20] can be difficult, especially if you
[26:21] work, like I understand that myself, um
[26:24] the better the results are. Giving kids
[26:27] a chance to do things that benefit
[26:28] others. Most kids really enjoy an
[26:30] opportunity to help someone, whether
[26:31] it's informally or formally. So if we
[26:34] have more of those positive activities
[26:35] and opportunities for them to come
[26:37] together, or individually, small groups,
[26:39] what have you, it really gives them the
[26:41] chance to shine and have a positive
[26:43] self-view.
[26:45] Helping schools recognize children.
[26:48] They benefit others. If we get the
[26:49] schools involved in addition to the
[26:51] other things that are happening. That is
[26:53] another way to reward them and recognize
[26:55] them for what they're doing.
[26:57] And then finally, helping parents build
[26:59] strong relationships. One of the
[27:00] programs that is offered at no cost,
[27:03] which we also talk about briefly, um
[27:05] really focuses on empowering parents.
[27:07] If you're a parent, know a parent,
[27:09] parenting is difficult, right? Even if
[27:11] you have a two-parent household,
[27:13] it's a challenge, right? So, the more
[27:15] support we can have um an understanding
[27:18] of how we can interact with our youth
[27:20] for the better.
[27:22] So, what this looks like here. We use
[27:24] the data, right? We address the risk and
[27:27] protective factors. Um presentations and
[27:29] tabling events, we've done a variety of
[27:31] them. We've done Night of Hope um over
[27:34] in Layton at the New Avenues campus. Um
[27:37] 9/11 uh volunteer service projects,
[27:40] community trainings for adults so that
[27:43] they understand um how to best support
[27:45] their youth. Um community service events
[27:48] like I mentioned, policy work in terms
[27:50] of laws, regulations, guidelines, all
[27:52] focused on decreasing those risk factors
[27:55] and improving those protective factors.
[27:57] These things are done at the local and
[27:58] state levels. Um and an example is the
[28:02] involvement in banning the sale of
[28:04] flavored vapes.
[28:05] were very popular for
[28:08] children.
[28:09] Right?
[28:10] In addition to this, like I mentioned,
[28:12] using that evidence to target our
[28:13] programs.
[28:14] One of the really nice things about the
[28:16] programs, for example, there's one
[28:18] parents come in that they have free
[28:20] child care provided to them, dinner's
[28:22] provided to them for free. They complete
[28:24] this program for a number of weeks.
[28:26] They're able to bond with their
[28:27] children. They're able to learn more
[28:29] about how they can support as a parent.
[28:31] Again, zero cost child care provided.
[28:33] It's hard to not be able to participate
[28:36] unless someone has to work, right? If
[28:38] you have those other things covered that
[28:39] may be a barrier to some individuals.
[28:42] Another example would be free family
[28:44] dinners for community. Again, gathering
[28:47] them together to help them understand
[28:48] the importance of family and community
[28:51] as protective factors. Families are
[28:53] great, friends are great, community, all
[28:55] of this builds upon itself.
[28:58] And then a youth summit. Get the youth
[29:00] involved directly. There's a half-day
[29:02] conference on a Saturday. Youth come
[29:04] together
[29:05] and they talk about, you know, their
[29:07] mental health, substance use,
[29:09] leadership, general wellness. So, all of
[29:12] these things are partnerships together.
[29:13] It truly takes these different pieces.
[29:16] So, where we could use your help, take
[29:18] an share the parent survey, if you have
[29:21] not already. That's a great opportunity.
[29:23] We have that in Davis County, I know, to
[29:26] hear from parents about youth substance
[29:28] use and mental health concerns. Part of
[29:30] our success is dependent upon the data
[29:32] that we receive. I know even for my
[29:34] daughter,
[29:35] she's been identified, her friends won't
[29:37] tell her things anymore because she
[29:39] knows that they'll tell me.
[29:40] But, it's very important. It's kind of
[29:42] that if you see something, say
[29:43] something, and parents are great source
[29:45] for that information.
[29:47] Have a council member join us. I am part
[29:49] of the CTC as a community member because
[29:52] our city council and Bettina Smith
[29:53] Edmonson approached me shortly after I
[29:55] moved to Utah for work in 2021, and I've
[29:58] been a part of it ever since.
[30:01] So, your support really means an
[30:03] incredible deal, even if you can't
[30:05] commit to any sort of full-time
[30:07] involvement. Showing up at events,
[30:09] meetings, all of those things are
[30:11] incredibly meaningful and important and
[30:13] gratefully greatly appreciated. It helps
[30:15] us strengthen the coalition.
[30:17] And share updates within the community
[30:19] so that you know directly what's
[30:20] happening in your communities as well.
[30:22] And then invite us to be where kids and
[30:23] families are. We are happy to show up,
[30:26] even sometimes at the last minute, with
[30:28] a table and information. We have
[30:30] giveaways. There are chit-chat cards
[30:31] that allow you, between parents and
[30:33] children, to have a conversation. Like,
[30:35] you take turns asking questions, get to
[30:37] know you, have that engagement together.
[30:39] But, please do invite us. Let us know if
[30:42] we can support your communities in any
[30:44] way. We are here and very excited to be
[30:47] able to do that.
[30:49] So that is
[30:50] >> Thank you very much.
[30:50] >> Thank you.
[30:52] >> Appreciate your
[30:54] Yes, yes,
[30:55] invitations.
[30:59] Any questions, council, anyone?
[31:01] >> I just invite them that we do have our
[31:03] South Weber City Days and they get a
[31:05] booth or something like that. So there's
[31:07] a whole Saturday where you get the whole
[31:08] community in the park if you want to
[31:10] have some exposure.
[31:11] >> Fantastic. Please let us know and we can
[31:12] absolutely share in the presentation. It
[31:14] has our contact information as well. We
[31:16] can share the presentation, I imagine,
[31:19] and then definitely see how we can
[31:21] partner.
[31:22] >> That'd be awesome.
[31:22] >> That would be great.
[31:23] >> Thank you.
[31:24] >> So our CCA,
[31:26] which your city is a part of,
[31:28] we have uh we're working with Davis
[31:30] Behavioral Health is the one who is
[31:32] doing the parent survey that she was
[31:34] mentioning and it's a QR code. It's a 5
[31:37] to
[31:38] at the longest 10 minutes. There's skip
[31:40] logic in it, so it's a 5 to 10 minute
[31:42] survey. We have numerous gift cards that
[31:44] we're giving away, $50 gift cards that
[31:46] we're doing a drawing for participants.
[31:48] We would love for you guys to take the
[31:50] survey, all of you, and enter for that
[31:53] $50 and then pass it on in any way that
[31:56] we can to get more of the voices. We'd
[31:58] love to hear from more of the parents
[32:00] from South Weber
[32:02] and have them represented in our survey.
[32:04] So I'm going to
[32:06] leave these here and if you want more, I
[32:08] can get you
[32:11] >> Thank you.
[32:11] >> Yeah, we appreciate that.
[32:13] Thank you.
[32:15] >> Okay, we'll move on with our consent
[32:16] agenda consisting of April 14th minutes,
[32:20] April checks, and March budget to
[32:22] actual.
[32:23] Any discussion on
[32:26] any of these or
[32:28] any changes that you noticed?
[32:31] >> I just had one question.
[32:33] Um
[32:33] down on and I'm sorry I cut and paste
[32:36] everything cuz it was such a large
[32:37] packet. Uh 423
[32:40] we have uh State Bank um and and we've
[32:43] got like the the Rams
[32:46] um
[32:47] and we're paying a thousand dollars
[32:49] for this. I'm assuming it's a a monthly.
[32:52] But right below that we have um 3F
[32:56] uh
[32:57] 350s.
[32:59] And each one of those are fifteen
[33:00] thousand dollars. Um is that because
[33:03] we've got them on a faster or shorter
[33:05] payment schedule or
[33:07] I was just wondering the difference
[33:09] there. Going from a thousand to fifteen
[33:10] thousand was just I wasn't expecting
[33:13] that.
[33:13] >> No, so for
[33:15] that's a that's a great question. What
[33:16] we've done
[33:18] uh from our previous fleet company
[33:21] um to the new one all the all the ones
[33:23] that transferred over
[33:25] we worked out a a monthly a monthly
[33:27] payment for those.
[33:28] >> Mhm.
[33:28] >> And then as we get new as we switch out
[33:31] those vehicles now, we're switching them
[33:33] to an annual payment.
[33:35] >> Okay.
[33:36] >> So that's that's where you're seeing
[33:38] big difference. Some are some are annual
[33:40] already and some are still under the old
[33:44] um fleet company or not they're not
[33:47] under the old fleet, but when we brought
[33:49] them over they're monthly at this point.
[33:52] Does that help?
[33:53] >> That does.
[33:54] Thank you.
[33:58] » Mayor, no. Mayor, I make a motion to
[34:00] approve the consent agenda.
[34:01] >> I second.
[34:03] >> All in favor, say I.
[34:05] >> I.
[34:07] >> Okay, our next item on the agenda agenda
[34:09] tonight it's a new item. The state is
[34:12] requiring
[34:14] uh
[34:15] our finance director to uh come before
[34:17] the council and present our tentative
[34:20] budget and tax certification.
[34:23] And uh
[34:25] so at this time we're going to turn over
[34:27] to Brett
[34:29] and uh let him carry on with that.
[34:31] >> Okay.
[34:32] Um
[34:33] First and foremost, like like the mayor
[34:35] said, the intent of of these new line
[34:39] items, these resolutions, and and these
[34:41] items action items on the agenda
[34:44] is to make sure that we're being as
[34:47] compliant as we can with the new state
[34:49] law and that we're being transparent um
[34:52] not just to council, but also to the
[34:54] public.
[34:55] And so with that,
[34:58] um I do have to state that the tentative
[35:00] budget does include a a property tax
[35:03] increase
[35:04] and that South Weber's considering
[35:06] levying a tax rate that exceeds the the
[35:10] expected amount um
[35:13] that exceeds the the
[35:16] estimated certified tax rate.
[35:19] I know that's worded a little different
[35:21] than what we're used to, but in essence,
[35:23] it does mean that we are holding the
[35:24] rate
[35:26] based on what what the expected
[35:30] certified tax rate is going to be
[35:32] and what we want to hold it at.
[35:35] I have to show that difference as an
[35:37] increase, and that's where that $39,000
[35:40] is coming from.
[35:41] >> Um
[35:43] help me understand this because
[35:45] um
[35:46] we have two really before us.
[35:49] Uh one that is holding the rate,
[35:53] which I thought that's kind of where we
[35:56] were looking still as our starting
[35:58] point,
[35:59] um and we
[36:00] reference that a couple of times.
[36:02] Um
[36:03] but we're showing the one where we
[36:05] increase the rate.
[36:08] >> So, a good way to explain that is
[36:11] because of the the value of the homes
[36:13] and the way the formula works from the
[36:15] state, the values of as the value of the
[36:18] homes increase,
[36:20] the tax rate the tax rate decreases.
[36:23] >> Oh, I understand that. I'm
[36:23] >> And so
[36:24] >> we We two models of whether as a council
[36:28] we decide that we're going to for this
[36:30] next budget, our tentative budget,
[36:32] whether it'll be at the held rate or
[36:35] whether it'll be held at an increased
[36:37] rate. And I thought the and I I could be
[36:40] wrong, but I thought most of
[36:42] um the direction from the council was
[36:44] that we were looking
[36:45] at the holding rate. And when I look on
[36:49] here and I see that we're looking at the
[36:51] increase rate.
[36:53] >> Where are you seeing that? Because the
[36:54] intent is to hold it at the same as last
[36:56] year's rate of 1434.
[36:58] >> That's and then this is
[36:59] >> And that's where it I mean, it is in
[37:02] seven worded to where you would think
[37:04] that.
[37:05] >> Yeah, okay, I see.
[37:06] >> Holding the rate is still an increased
[37:08] dollar amount.
[37:10] >> Right.
[37:10] >> And that's that is be But if you look at
[37:13] like it your wording is actually the
[37:15] wording in the state language is that of
[37:18] Larry's tax revenue is how he has to
[37:20] word that in this meeting today.
[37:22] >> Okay. One way to One way to say it is
[37:26] the tax rate last year was 1434. We
[37:29] intend to hold that same rate.
[37:32] The certified tax rate that the county
[37:34] will propose to us, we're estimating to
[37:37] be 3% lower than 1434. So, if we are to
[37:41] hold our rate, we are showing an
[37:44] estimated increase off of the certified
[37:47] tax rate of 3%, which would get us back
[37:50] to 1434.
[37:52] >> Okay.
[37:53] I see what you're saying.
[37:54] >> We won't know what that certified tax
[37:55] rate is until next month. So, it'll be
[37:57] estimated.
[37:58] >> Yeah, right. Okay.
[38:00] Perfect. Thank you. Please continue.
[38:02] >> Okay.
[38:03] Um
[38:05] we do expect that
[38:06] the additional ad valorem tax revenue to
[38:10] generate uh about $39,000.
[38:14] Um and the approximate percentage is
[38:16] that 3% as as Dave
[38:18] >> Jumping in.
[38:19] >> As No,
[38:20] as Dave mentioned, and we expect that to cover different things within the
[38:27] general fund, and we've we've mentioned
[38:29] some of those, the youth council, office
[38:31] supplies, equipment, emergency
[38:33] preparedness,
[38:34] fire travel, abatement, snow supplies,
[38:36] and trails.
[38:38] Know that we are not eliminating any of
[38:41] these expenditures. We are just merely
[38:44] decreasing them
[38:46] if the proposed tax rate is not
[38:49] approved.
[38:50] Does that Does that make sense?
[38:54] >> I just want to restate what you just
[38:56] said, just make sure I'm with you.
[38:58] >> Okay.
[38:59] >> Um if I understand what you just said
[39:01] correctly, what you're saying is that if
[39:02] we choose not to hold the rate, and we go with
[39:06] whatever the county
[39:08] gives us is the example we're comparing,
[39:11] right?
[39:12] Um the way that you split up that
[39:14] 39,000, you would basically deduct those
[39:17] amounts from those requisite current
[39:21] estimated expenditures or budgets. Is
[39:22] that correct?
[39:24] >> Correct. And and I do have that shown in
[39:26] that
[39:27] >> Yep.
[39:28] >> in that tax tax impact
[39:29] >> how you're going to bring that
[39:30] correctly.
[39:30] >> Yep, you're you're totally correct on
[39:32] that.
[39:33] >> So, my question on that is that um
[39:36] why do we have the impact notes?
[39:38] Because if we're not going to hold those
[39:40] ones to it,
[39:42] um
[39:43] it just seems to me that this is kind of
[39:45] the
[39:46] um transparency sometimes we see on the
[39:50] national level or state level of oh,
[39:53] well, we're going to we're not going to
[39:54] have as many taxes, so we're going to
[39:55] have to cut the police, the nurses, the
[39:58] teachers, and any other type of
[40:00] >> Cuz
[40:01] >> These aren't the ones that are on the
[40:03] chopping block.
[40:04] >> The legislature makes us this year list
[40:07] what we would cut.
[40:10] >> But well, I'm based
[40:11] >> saying though is that
[40:12] that's
[40:14] the If these are the ones that we're
[40:16] actually going to cut, I think that
[40:17] actually is the city council's decision.
[40:21] We're the ones that do the budget.
[40:23] >> Right. That is your decision. Based on
[40:25] the last budget discussion, staff was
[40:27] tasked with going back department by
[40:29] department, working with department
[40:31] heads to say what would be cut if we
[40:33] didn't hold the rate.
[40:34] >> What would be recommended to be cut?
[40:36] >> Okay. Yes, this is what we recommend as
[40:38] staff. This is what we recommend as
[40:40] staff looking at the budget, that
[40:41] $39,000.
[40:43] And that tax schedule is what shows the
[40:46] line by line item what those things
[40:48] would be. That that's recommendation,
[40:50] yeah.
[40:50] >> Okay. Thank you. Thank you, Blair.
[40:55] » Um last item
[40:58] is
[41:00] that the South Weber City will will
[41:03] provide a notice and conduct a public hearing for the
[41:07] public to provide comments on the
[41:09] proposed tax rate increase on August
[41:12] 11th.
[41:14] At that point, those are the discussion
[41:16] items that that I have.
[41:19] Is there questions, concerns
[41:23] that that council may have or do you
[41:25] want clarification
[41:27] on any of the documents provided?
[41:31] And thank you for clarifying, David,
[41:33] that those are the recommendations.
[41:35] They can be adjusted by council, but
[41:37] that is the recommendation after
[41:39] discussing with the department heads.
[41:44] >> Well,
[41:45] >> I I'll just tell you straight out, you
[41:46] try to touch the tree program and I'll
[41:47] come at you.
[41:50] Me and all of the little elves in the
[41:52] city.
[41:53] The Lorax will
[41:55] >> You do know you speak for the trees.
[41:57] >> I do. I speak for the trees.
[42:02] » Which is specifically why you don't see
[42:04] that on there.
[42:05] >> It's on there.
[42:06] >> It is It is on there.
[42:07] >> Specifically
[42:10] >> But then
[42:10] >> And I know that
[42:12] >> The tentative budget includes these
[42:15] things, right? These are things we don't
[42:16] want to cut. We want to have and that's
[42:19] why they are in the tentative budget.
[42:20] >> only there if it doesn't pass.
[42:24] >> If we don't pass, right?
[42:26] >> Truth in taxation.
[42:27] >> Right, these are the options. I'm just I think that sometimes in in the city we
[42:32] don't have a a very clear
[42:35] um line between who actually does the
[42:38] budget and where that comes from and
[42:40] where the recommendations for that comes
[42:42] from and although we value those
[42:44] recommendations, at the same time
[42:46] um
[42:48] it
[42:49] I would have much rather seen
[42:51] um
[42:52] uh I mean we we're not talking about the
[42:54] full-time employee salaries in the
[42:56] administration area. Um
[42:59] we have a city manager fund. I'm not
[43:01] even sure what that is.
[43:03] Um but we're higher on that. Um
[43:06] so I'm just saying
[43:08] leave the trees alone.
[43:13] Please.
[43:15] Okay.
[43:17] » May I make a motion uh acknowledging the
[43:20] property tax impact schedule created by
[43:21] finance director Brett

[45:14] County relating to the conduct of the
[45:17] community
[45:18] development block grant program.
[45:22] Any questions or concerns?
[45:25] Or look for a motion.
[45:26] >> Um
[45:27] I really wish
[45:30] is would it be
[45:32] um
[45:34] uh our engineer
[45:36] that that has that Brandon
[45:38] um because in the contract itself it
[45:41] holds us for
[45:43] um
[45:44] uh some costs that I don't see included
[45:47] with this.
[45:48] If it's going to have a cost to the city
[45:50] going forward, um
[45:52] I'd like to see what that is as part of
[45:54] this agreement.
[45:57] >> Um basically this agreement um
[46:01] is us being a player within the county.
[46:04] We do not ever
[46:06] uh qualify for CDBG money, and so
[46:09] there's never a cost to us cuz we're
[46:11] >> Actually, if you look on uh
[46:15] 0.4 joint cooperation, as reasonably
[46:18] necessary, the parties agree to assist
[46:20] each other in providing and sharing
[46:22] information, drawing plans, blah blah. Go down to eight, jointly purchase
[46:25] educational and training materials as
[46:27] determined by the coalition for
[46:28] distribution to the to residents.
[46:31] Doesn't specifically say ours is We're donating money into a a group fund
[46:36] on the other one. Um 87?
[46:40] >> Thank you.
[46:41] >> I believe No, that cuz that would be at
[46:42] the bottom of it. Page five of 69. I've
[46:46] got so many of those, I'm sorry.
[46:48] But it's um
[46:50] of that, go down to four, and then go
[46:52] down to A.
[46:53] >> Okay.
[46:54] >> 4A?
[46:55] >> Yeah.
[46:58] » Like I said, I'm sorry. I had to cut and
[46:59] paste a couple
[47:01] I literally just cut that. So,
[47:04] five, take necessary action, comply to
[47:07] that.
[47:10] Can you go up just a little, 60 degrees?
[47:20] » Council member Dells, which agreement
[47:22] are you reading from?
[47:23] >> Um the one that was sent.
[47:28] There There are two and there are
[47:30] >> I do.
[47:31] >> The first relates to the C CDBG.
[47:35] The next relates to an interlocal
[47:38] cooperation agreement for pollutant
[47:39] discharge.
[47:41] I think you may be reading from the
[47:43] second one.
[47:44] >> That's what I
[47:45] >> Okay. Because the section numbers and
[47:47] the language that you read don't match
[47:49] with
[47:49] >> And and it's only a couple pages long.
[47:52] That's where I
[47:52] >> I'm trying to find the
[47:53] >> Yes, 4 4A in the next item does have
[47:57] joint
[47:57] >> Okay, I see.
[47:58] >> purchasing. So, yes.
[48:00] >> See, it's that's interesting. I
[48:02] apologize. So,
[48:04] thank you.
[48:06] Okay, well, still, are there any costs?
[48:08] They should be in there.
[48:10] >> Not for this agreement, no.
[48:13] » Okay, I'll take that.
[48:16] >> Mayor, I move to approve resolution
[48:17] 20-15
[48:19] interlocal
[48:20] agreement with Davis County related to
[48:22] the conduct of community development
[48:24] block grant program.
[48:26] I second 20-15.
[48:28] >> Second.
[48:28] >> 27.
[48:29] >> Second by Councilman Deales. I will do
[48:32] roll call votes starting with Councilman
[48:33] Windsor.
[48:33] >> Aye.
[48:37] >> Motion carries.
[48:39] Next resolution 26-16
[48:42] interlocal cooperation agreement with
[48:44] Davis County for the Utah pollutant
[48:46] discharge elimination system general
[48:50] permit.
[48:50] >> I've got problems with this one.
[48:53] As far as the costs on item 4A,
[48:57] >> uh I'd have to look and see what
[48:58] historical costs there are there. We the agreement is essentially the same as
[49:04] we've had before for this same permit.
[49:07] So, I'd have to look and see if there
[49:09] are a specific
[49:10] trend or anything on those joint costs,
[49:13] but
[49:14] >> I would assume it's probably very small.
[49:15] I don't think there's much at all, if
[49:17] anything.
[49:18] >> But, I do think that if we're going to
[49:19] have something like this come through
[49:21] where it's any type of cooperation
[49:22] agreements, if there is a cost, whether
[49:25] it be low or high,
[49:27] I think it just needs to be brought to
[49:28] the attention of the city council at the
[49:30] time,
[49:31] not afterwards. So,
[49:34] that was all I was going to say.
[49:36] >> That makes sense.
[49:40] » Okay, with that being said, is someone
[49:41] who like to make a motion?
[49:46] » Mayor, I move to approve resolution
[49:48] 26-16 interlocal cooperation agreement
[49:50] with the Davis County for Utah pollution
[49:52] discharge elimination systems general
[49:54] permit.
[49:56] >> Seconded.

[50:01] a roll call vote starting with
[50:02] Councilman Howertson.
[50:03] >> Aye.

[50:22] >> Yes.
[50:26] » Ready?
[50:27] >> Okay.
[50:28] That one's been removed.
[50:31] >> Uh discussion item,
[50:33] celebrating America 20 or 250.
[50:36] Uh
[50:38] I'd like to discuss some for a few
[50:40] minutes what this year we want to do to
[50:43] celebrate
[50:45] America 250.
[50:47] Any suggestions from the council or what
[50:49] would you like the uh
[50:52] if anything, probably should do
[50:53] something.
[50:57] Want to have any uh
[50:58] >> So, we talked We talked about this down
[51:00] in St. George a little bit, but I mean,
[51:01] I know we talked about it.
[51:03] Something to do in South Weber Days.
[51:05] And the parade might be the easiest,
[51:07] obviously.
[51:08] >> Yes.
[51:09] >> Um

[51:13] citywide potluck for those of you who
[51:15] weren't down in the uh
[51:19] city to city meetings.
[51:21] Um
[51:22] that is that is a neighborhood potluck
[51:25] that they want people in their
[51:26] neighborhoods to instigate like in a you
[51:28] know, do it in a cul-de-sac. If I mean,
[51:30] I don't think that's a bad idea. Some
[51:32] neighborhoods already do those kind of
[51:33] things.
[51:36] » They don't need a permit to close off
[51:37] the
[51:38] >> We're going to work with them to do that
[51:40] if that's a requirement and make it easy
[51:44] to happen have happen.
[51:46] So, I don't think those are bad ideas. I
[51:48] think what's on here is good. I don't
[51:50] know if there's any other really cool
[51:52] ideas to do for this.
[51:54] >> Um I've got some.
[51:56] >> Let's go for it. I That's what That's
[51:58] why I'm asking. I don't have those
[51:59] ideas.
[52:00] >> Um so I I just
[52:03] Um I guess it comes down to whether or
[52:05] not we want to make this a big deal or
[52:06] not. I mean, if it's just going to be
[52:07] part of South Weber Days,
[52:09] um there's a couple things we can do to
[52:11] kind of enhance it.
[52:13] Um one of the things that I've got down
[52:15] on here, and Dave may be able to help us
[52:17] on that with the uh our own flag
[52:19] company, but um I also know the owners
[52:22] of um
[52:25] What is it? Centennial Flag down there
[52:26] in Sandy?
[52:27] >> Colonial.
[52:29] Thank you. Um I used to kill
[52:31] mice in his backyard. Um
[52:34] but
[52:36] see if we couldn't get some type of
[52:38] discount, whether it's QR code or a link
[52:40] from our website or something that
[52:41] basically says, "If you're a citizen and
[52:43] you want to have an American flag at a
[52:45] discount, you know, maybe they'll give
[52:47] us a 10% discount, maybe something
[52:49] else." I don't know, but
[52:51] um
[52:53] I still have stuff from um the
[52:57] Centennial.
[52:59] Um I have so many things that still have
[53:02] on it, you know, the Spirit of 1776 and
[53:05] all of these kind of things. Um even an
[53:07] old Sprite bottle. I mean, it's just It
[53:09] was fun to collect it and it's fun to
[53:10] live through it. And I would just like
[53:12] to see some of those same kind of things
[53:14] if we want to do it. And I say that
[53:17] specifically cuz we are missing our
[53:20] event coordinator.
[53:22] Um and that kind of makes it difficult,
[53:24] but uh some of the things that um
[53:27] uh they've suggested out there um in
[53:29] other cities are doing um things like
[53:32] uh you can have um a roaming
[53:35] uh mascot with a QR code down on the
[53:37] bottom that basically makes it as a
[53:40] um scavenger hunt through the city. So,
[53:42] you would go down to the
[53:43] um
[53:44] historical cemetery. You would go over
[53:47] to
[53:48] uh one of the rooms in here would have a
[53:49] poster describing, you know, where this
[53:52] happened and whatnot. Um one of the fun
[53:54] ones is a reenactment of Bunker Hill um
[53:58] with water balloons
[54:00] um and squirt guns. And it's just time
[54:03] to get the kids out there.
[54:04] Um
[54:05] uh I would like to see
[54:08] because we have quite a bit of extra
[54:10] money in the tree program
[54:14] um I would like to see something done
[54:16] down at the Memorial Park. Even if it's
[54:19] just, you know, in one of the corners we
[54:21] part uh
[54:23] plant two or three trees and put down
[54:26] there with it something about
[54:28] um uh
[54:30] this is, you know, for generations to
[54:32] come. You know, this is for uh the the
[54:34] 250th celebration of our our the signing
[54:37] of the Declaration of Independence. And
[54:39] um this is for the next 250 years. Other
[54:41] cities are doing things like uh time
[54:43] capsules and stuff, but those are really
[54:45] kind of difficult to do.
[54:46] >> A plaque?
[54:48] >> Yeah. Um just just a small little metal
[54:50] plaque that goes on or near the base of
[54:52] the tree or however that would just talk
[54:55] about it. Um that is our Veterans
[54:56] Memorial, so it is a good place to do
[54:59] any of these kind of extra things that
[55:00] we would want.
[55:02] Um
[55:03] we could do contests in the city, you
[55:05] know, most patriotic porch. We've got a
[55:07] lot of people that do decorate for the
[55:08] 24th of July.
[55:10] I don't know. I'm just saying that
[55:12] there's a lot of little things that
[55:13] wouldn't take too much work. We could
[55:16] work with South Weber um Elementary to
[55:18] do a
[55:20] um future letter uh for those um that,
[55:24] you know, live in 2076
[55:26] um saying what it's like here and, you
[55:29] know, the kids could draw pictures of
[55:30] what they think it's going to be like in
[55:32] uh 2076. Um so, there's all kinds of
[55:35] different things. They do all um say
[55:37] that like with the parade, you could
[55:39] have
[55:40] you could invite
[55:41] um
[55:43] veterans whether they're
[55:45] or active military and their kids to
[55:48] walk in the parade. Kind of that
[55:51] historical and young approach looking at
[55:53] it
[55:54] or have booths or you know where you
[55:56] pass things out over there or just have
[55:58] them as part of the parade carrying a
[56:00] lot of American flags cuz this is meant
[56:02] to be a very patriotic
[56:04] type of event. So that that's what I've
[56:06] got. Like I said, it's going to take a
[56:07] lot more work and I don't know if we've
[56:09] got the manpower right now to do that.
[56:12] So I'm just bringing it up and
[56:15] see what y'all think.
[56:20] » I have an option.
[56:22] I had an idea since I wasn't at the city
[56:24] to city meeting.
[56:26] But I'm looking at
[56:27] >> missed.
[56:28] >> Thank you.
[56:30] Uh
[56:31] This one's going to lean a little bit on
[56:32] our fire department friends.
[56:35] But uh the idea was
[56:37] bear with me cuz I know there's some
[56:39] logistics behind it but if we get this
[56:40] we don't have our quint
[56:42] but if we had some sort of ladder trucks
[56:44] that we could borrow our own trucks, put
[56:46] it on the overpass on 89 and set up some
[56:49] sort of flag you know can have a
[56:51] American flag hanging there and some
[56:52] sort of banner you know celebrate 250
[56:54] years and leave it out there
[56:56] for the day for the travelers who are
[56:57] traveling through our community to see
[56:59] how we're supporting
[57:00] the tour.
[57:02] Something visually like that is a photo
[57:03] op you might get some news media out of
[57:05] it but uh
[57:07] that was my my thought.
[57:11] You know cuz it's South Beaver
[57:12] celebrating 250 America's 250th.
[57:15] >> It's just uh
[57:17] How do you implement
[57:18] >> I don't know how you'd physically do
[57:20] that. If you had ladder trucks it'd be
[57:21] great string across two ladder trucks
[57:23] but I'm not buying you another ladder
[57:24] truck so don't forget about that one.
[57:28] But we can block off the uh
[57:31] furthest north lane. There's two lanes
[57:33] that go east and go west east to west on
[57:36] that bridge.
[57:37] >> On this bridge down here?
[57:38] >> No, the one over 89.
[57:39] >> Oh, the north-south lanes?
[57:43] >> No.
[57:43] >> I'm on I'm on South Weber Drive.
[57:45] >> Going on the bridge. On the bridge.
[57:47] >> on the bridge.
[57:48] >> Right, right.
[57:49] >> There's two lanes that go westbound.
[57:50] >> Oh, you're on them hanging over South
[57:52] Weber Drive?
[57:53] >> No, hanging.
[57:54] >> Hanging above 89 89 comes over South
[57:56] Weber Drive 89. You're on the bridge
[57:58] hanging up high. Everyone could see you.
[58:00] >> That's easy to do. So, because we have
[58:02] an adequate we've just been going out
[58:04] there for
[58:05] uh
[58:07] usually it's something really bad's
[58:08] happened unfortunately. We're
[58:10] cops have been killed or whatever. But,
[58:12] we already have two huge flags. If we
[58:14] can find a way to anchor them on the
[58:16] bridge, we can leave them out there for
[58:17] a day pretty easy without manpower being
[58:19] out there.
[58:21] >> Big flag and a banner and well,
[58:23] something that recognizes 250 years was
[58:26] my idea.
[58:27] >> Yeah, we could hang a flag on each side.
[58:30] And hit both directions cuz we do have
[58:32] the two giant flags. Um it would just be
[58:35] making sure what however we anchor them
[58:37] make making sure they're not going to
[58:39] fly off, but that'd be easy for us to do
[58:41] is put the flags out. Are you talking on
[58:42] the 4th
[58:44] of July?
[58:45] >> Day of celebration. Whenever we're
[58:46] celebrating the calendar day.
[58:48] >> Whatever day we choose, yeah.
[58:49] >> That That would be the day and you know,
[58:52] it would be recognized not only by our
[58:53] own community, but the community abroad
[58:55] as you travel through it.
[58:56] >> Yeah, we'd be happy to do that.
[58:58] >> So, that's just an idea I had.
[59:00] >> If the city wants us to do it, let us
[59:01] know. We'd be happy to go do that.
[59:02] >> Thanks, Derek.
[59:03] >> Good.
[59:09] » I don't I don't have any more. I didn't
[59:11] Those were great ideas. It's figuring
[59:12] out how to implement some of them and
[59:15] make it happen. I know we have enough
[59:16] people that are willing to support
[59:17] things those activities in the
[59:19] community.
[59:20] Just like the Easter egg hunt, we get
[59:22] more coming out for that than I ever
[59:23] dreamt we would have coming out for it.
[59:24] If we did
[59:26] some kind of celebration, I'm sure we'd
[59:28] get people out of
[59:29] finding the time for and the staff to
[59:31] plan it.
[59:32] >> Well, and I've I've seen where the other
[59:34] cities
[59:35] um are doing uh
[59:38] kind of a staggered approach. So, like
[59:40] one weekend they'll have uh you know,
[59:42] the art contest with the kids and
[59:45] they're displayed up in city hall for
[59:47] you know, the the rest of the month and
[59:50] the next weekend is when they'll have
[59:51] you know, Bunker Hill and the fire
[59:52] department will come and you know, new
[59:54] come all their hose.
[59:56] Um and then the next weekend they'll
[59:57] have
[59:58] uh you know, uh something down at the
[1:00:01] other park and we dress the train up in
[1:00:03] you know, red, white, and blue or
[1:00:04] something. It It just makes it so that
[1:00:07] maybe that gives a little bit more time
[1:00:09] between each one.
[1:00:11] Again, I and Dave, this really
[1:00:14] comes down to you and whether or not we
[1:00:16] have the staffing to be able to do it
[1:00:19] and how much of it we'd be able to do.
[1:00:21] We could stick with a lot more of the
[1:00:23] simpler ones. We could use the youth uh
[1:00:26] council on some of it. Um
[1:00:29] it's just
[1:00:30] >> Well, if the council says this is a
[1:00:32] priority and you'd like staff time to be
[1:00:34] spent on it, then we will do that.
[1:00:37] We will prioritize that and if we wanted
[1:00:40] another idea, potentially call for
[1:00:43] community volunteers that might be
[1:00:45] interested in in joining a small kind of
[1:00:47] event committee for America 250, we
[1:00:51] could put out a bat signal so to speak
[1:00:53] for volunteers and ask for people to
[1:00:55] help us
[1:00:56] um carry some of these ideas. If we, you
[1:00:58] know, pick a few of these and say these
[1:01:01] are the ones we want to make happen, um
[1:01:03] we could ask for help and it's not just
[1:01:05] staff time there, but staff would
[1:01:06] organize the the effort.
[1:01:09] >> That's
[1:01:10] I think that's a good idea.
[1:01:11] >> that's a good idea.
[1:01:12] >> So, maybe see if there's some interested
[1:01:14] people
[1:01:15] being willing to
[1:01:16] >> Yeah.
[1:01:17] >> join that committee or spearhead that.
[1:01:18] >> Yeah.
[1:01:19] We have met with Country Fair Days
[1:01:21] already and brought up the general
[1:01:22] concept of having America 250 as part of
[1:01:25] that and and they were amenable to that.
[1:01:27] If you remember, you probably know more
[1:01:29] than I do, but
[1:01:31] this is the 50th anniversary of Country
[1:01:34] Fair Days. It was specifically started
[1:01:36] at the Centennial. Um and and
[1:01:39] it was it was part of that's part of our
[1:01:42] Country Fair Days history is that
[1:01:43] Centennial. So, we'll always have
[1:01:46] those big milestones line up and that's
[1:01:49] kind of a a neat thing we have for us.
[1:01:51] So, they're aware of that. They didn't
[1:01:53] necessarily have grand plans necessarily
[1:01:56] around America 250, but they're amenable
[1:01:59] to that and if we had
[1:02:01] again, we'll we'll kind of spearhead the
[1:02:03] effort as staff. Uh I'll take that on
[1:02:05] myself and and see what other
[1:02:08] people we can drum up to to carry
[1:02:10] forward some of these ideas. So, if
[1:02:12] there's ones of those that have been
[1:02:14] listed, you specifically say yes, make
[1:02:16] that happen, then then tell me now.
[1:02:19] Otherwise, we'll use this list and maybe
[1:02:21] pick
[1:02:22] anywhere from three to five of them and try to make those happen.
[1:02:26] >> I think that's good.
[1:02:28] >> And any any other new ideas, too. We're
[1:02:30] open.
[1:02:30] >> Okay.
[1:02:31] >> There's some that we're already working
[1:02:32] on it. So,
[1:02:33] >> Okay.
[1:02:34] >> I'll send these to
[1:02:34] >> Is the council okay with that idea of
[1:02:36] saying let's focus in on, you know,
[1:02:38] three to five ideas and try to make sure
[1:02:40] >> Yeah. I'd rather do I'd rather do a few
[1:02:43] than a bunch.
[1:02:44] >> I do, too.
[1:02:45] >> Sounds great.
[1:02:48] » Okay, with that, we'll move on to uh got
[1:02:50] a couple of board meetings that we need
[1:02:52] to hold.
[1:02:53] Uh so, we'll look for a motion to
[1:02:55] suspend
[1:02:58] City Council and
[1:03:01] convene to our board meetings.
[1:03:04] >> So moved.
[1:03:05] >> Second.
[1:03:06] >> All in favor, say I.

[1:05:47] >> I.
[1:05:51] » Hey.
[1:05:54] We made that.
[1:05:55] Uh any new business or council
[1:05:59] uh
[1:06:02] Well, let's do new business. Any new
[1:06:03] business? Dave, have you got any new
[1:06:05] business?
[1:06:06] >> Not new business, just a couple reports.
[1:06:13] » What's your reports?
[1:06:14] >> You want me to do those now?
[1:06:15] >> Um
[1:06:18] » Robinson Waste was acquired by Republic
[1:06:20] Services.
[1:06:21] Um we do not have any changes to service
[1:06:24] delivery. Um
[1:06:26] contract's all okay, everything like
[1:06:28] that. Um
[1:06:30] over time we will probably see more of
[1:06:32] the big blue Republic Service trucks
[1:06:34] rather than the white Robinson. Uh but
[1:06:37] as of now, there's no changes to their
[1:06:40] service model. Um but
[1:06:43] >> They assumed the contracts we currently
[1:06:44] have?
[1:06:45] >> Yep. Everything is as is. Um Republic
[1:06:48] just simply acquired Robinson. So,
[1:06:51] branding and everything stays Robinson
[1:06:53] at this point. But that's uh something
[1:06:55] of note, I think, that the council
[1:06:56] should be aware of.
[1:06:58] Um I'd also like to just do a quick
[1:06:59] shout out to our water department for
[1:07:01] the way they handled the a water leak
[1:07:03] yesterday um on Kingston Drive. There
[1:07:06] was a little bit of an emergency water
[1:07:08] leak. Um it affected about 14 homes and
[1:07:11] they knocked on every door and let them
[1:07:12] know and jumped on that. Water was out
[1:07:16] uh for
[1:07:17] about 6 hours, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
[1:07:20] Um but they they did good work there and communicated well with those
[1:07:24] affected. So, I I just want to recognize that. Um
[1:07:30] based on other previous experience we've
[1:07:32] had with some contractors in the city
[1:07:34] who have not provided good notice and
[1:07:36] then roads have had to be closed and
[1:07:38] things like that. I know that creates a
[1:07:40] problem for the fire department, for the
[1:07:41] school buses, and others when when that
[1:07:44] happens and that was very frustrating.
[1:07:46] So,
[1:07:47] uh our water department handled
[1:07:48] themselves well and I just want to
[1:07:49] acknowledge that.
[1:07:50] >> Appreciate that. Just a follow-up detail
[1:07:52] question. What was the source of the
[1:07:54] leak? Was it a freeze thaw rupture of a
[1:07:56] gasket at a joint? Was it a pipe burst
[1:07:58] or somebody dug into it doing a
[1:08:01] >> I don't know I don't know what the cause
[1:08:03] was. Uh I can look into that and and
[1:08:06] send an email to the council and report
[1:08:07] on what that was.
[1:08:08] >> didn't dig into it. I saw where it was,
[1:08:10] but I didn't see what
[1:08:11] the bottom part, but I believe it was at
[1:08:14] a joint.
[1:08:15] >> And and it No one dug into it or
[1:08:17] >> dug into it.
[1:08:18] actually could have been a mess in
[1:08:20] the road. It was We're lucky it didn't
[1:08:22] create a sinkhole. It was a lot of
[1:08:23] water.
[1:08:24] >> So, it was like a thrust thing and it
[1:08:25] just pulled the joint apart.
[1:08:26] >> But they were on it. The minute The blue stakes were done, they
[1:08:29] were digging.
[1:08:30] >> Awesome. That's good.
[1:08:33] >> We don't have too many of those types of
[1:08:34] scenarios. They do come every once in a
[1:08:36] while, but when they do, I'm grateful
[1:08:38] for the response from the team.
[1:08:41] >> Grateful enough for pizza for them for
[1:08:42] lunch?
[1:08:43] >> Sounds like a plan. That comes from that
[1:08:45] city manager line item you wondered
[1:08:46] about.
[1:08:47] >> what that Those types of things
[1:08:48] >> trying to figure it out. I think you
[1:08:49] need to take some money out of the tree
[1:08:51] budget to accommodate that.
[1:08:52] >> We we can stop right there, Mr.

[1:09:14] and public works discussion meeting.

[1:09:30] closed session, so we'll look for a
