1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:07,760 Call to order of the Storm Water Utility Board. Roll call for official list of 2 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:09,600 members. It looks like we have a quorum. >> We do. 3 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:14,800 » Yeah, we're all >> All right, review of minutes for June 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,800 15th, 2026. 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,920 » I'll make a motion to approve the minutes from June. 6 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:23,920 » We have a motion. >> I'll second it. 7 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:27,880 » All right, Councilwoman We have a second by Councilwoman 8 00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:31,480 Bowling. Any questions? If no questions, let's pass this thing 9 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:35,640 off. Favor? All right. Any opposed? No opposed. All right, let 10 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:39,520 it be passed. All right, old business. The old business was it came to my 11 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:46,640 attention last meeting about if we had an action plan 12 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:54,400 or what the progress for the Westler Engineering was. 13 00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:58,760 Uh the what we did was the conclusion for the streets were virtually due to 14 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:06,440 the inlets at 1E, 2E, 40, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 10A. 15 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:12,320 And this is the big thing, being extremely clogged with debris, including 16 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:19,120 dirt, trash, and yard waste. Pipes were unable to adequately drain stormwater 17 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:24,040 from the streets of Crossgates South. Regular maintenance is required to 18 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:29,760 remove the accumulation of debris. And I I stated that at the last time is that 19 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:34,520 what we need to do is continue the planning while we're doing education, 20 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:39,400 education, education in our stormwater letters. All right? 21 00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:44,280 Keep educating the public about where to properly put the grass 22 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:50,360 clippings, properly to put the trash. Do not litter. All right? 23 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:54,720 And why we did this was an exploration study to help and also help with the 24 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:58,640 Public Works Safety, and also the Chief. The Chief was doing 25 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:04,600 the cross gates and hiring city. So, that 26 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:10,520 was just one notch off of of our our checklist, okay? 27 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:15,240 Under the section. But, the senses of this was 28 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:22,200 that there's trash down there, there's mud down there, there's that old pipe 29 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:27,720 that's that's breaking down. It's just a nasty nasty place type of thing is what 30 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:31,680 it is. And we will fix it is what we're going to do. And we are fixing it, which 31 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,400 is pretty awesome, okay? That's 32 00:02:32,959 --> 00:02:36,000 that's what the plan is. >> Right. 33 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,560 » Right, chief? >> Yes. 34 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,320 » Thank you. And 35 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,520 that's the reiteration of what we just did before. 36 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Formal. ALL RIGHT. 37 00:02:43,959 --> 00:02:50,600 OKAY, ON WITH THE NEXT ONE. THAT was New Business President's Point. I had the 38 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,840 great acquaintance 39 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:58,520 of of going up to Purdue University on last 40 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:05,760 week and listening to a lot of storm water 41 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:09,920 experts in the field, engineers, and teachers, and 42 00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:15,040 educators, and such. And we talked about 43 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:20,600 climate change and how that is affecting ground water 44 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:25,600 levels and and we talked about surface water and 45 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:30,680 vegetation. But, our main point that we got out of this is 46 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:35,440 is that there's entities out there in the state of Indiana, okay? On their 47 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:40,560 storm water board and also on their storm water that just works with 48 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:44,000 education and education alone. Works with the schools, works with the people, 49 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:51,200 works with with the community. For example, 50 00:03:47,239 --> 00:03:56,120 if someone doesn't know where to dispose their grass clippings at, for example. 51 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:59,120 That's when uh 52 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:04,120 someone they code enforcer or such comes to them 53 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:09,560 and says, "Geez, man, you're disposing your grass clippings wrong." And then 54 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:14,160 they give the president of stormwater or the educator, and it wasn't the 55 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:19,040 president, it was the educator of the stormwater team to go out 56 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:22,880 and deliver paper to the gentleman and say, "Sir, you there you go. 57 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:28,880 Why don't you follow this plan here?" That way the community knows 58 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:32,560 what the actions are. Now, what I'm going to be thinking of because we're 59 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:37,800 I'm an educator and you're an educator is maybe we can come up with something 60 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:43,560 to put on a lesson plan or such that we could put on our webpage is what I got 61 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:51,320 from the stormwater conference, okay? 62 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:56,080 Because on the MS4, the C M1 is public education, and that includes educating 63 00:04:53,880 --> 00:05:00,760 the general public as late as possible second cycle, okay? 64 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:05,840 We educate the public in quarterly through 65 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:12,000 the newspaper. I make sure there's some points on that. We also educate the 66 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:18,280 public through our website that you so nicely put up stuff in, okay? 67 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Participation and involvement includes complying with official public notice 68 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:28,320 requirements and engaging the general public. How we can engage the general 69 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:35,480 public is if we did a lesson plan or something like that on 70 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:39,280 our webpage or give out to the community or 71 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,560 bring it here that the general public knows. So, that was the gist of the 72 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:48,000 meeting that I came back to bring information. Is there anyone who may 73 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:52,280 have more questions to ask them about this symposium I attended at Purdue 74 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:57,760 University.

He's at the 263 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:17,000 board meeting. Uh that's all I have on the police. 264 00:20:15,360 --> 00:20:22,600 Uh I do want to say one thing. We've had two incidents in the last week and a 265 00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:28,960 half of residents who are upset with either Amazon or our construction people 266 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:33,080 and have pulled guns on them. Um 267 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:37,920 both were arrested. Both were held for almost a week. 268 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:42,880 It is felony intimidation with firearm. I'm just saying that uh 269 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:47,840 we don't need to solve our issues with guns. We can have 270 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:50,360 those conversations. Uh but it seems to be 271 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,320 uh I don't know if it's summertime, so hot. 272 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,840 I don't know what it is. Um but if you encounter something like 273 00:20:55,160 --> 00:21:01,480 that, get out of the area, call 911. We'll come and address it. Do not engage 274 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:05,320 with them. Uh cuz that could be bad. Luckily, 275 00:21:03,360 --> 00:21:09,040 nobody's been shot. Um I'm not too sure. The first incident, 276 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,120 they did try to shoot and just double front of the gun, which is the reason 277 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:17,000 why it didn't work. But again, if you you encounter that 278 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:20,520 situation, just leave the area. Call us. We'll be there. I think our 279 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:23,680 response time to both of them was like a minute. 280 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:26,960 So, uh Yeah, that's my public safety 281 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:29,640 announcement. That's all I have for police unless somebody has a question. 282 00:21:28,120 --> 00:21:33,080 Yes, ma'am. >> I was asked to ask this question. 283 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:36,040 » Okay. >> Okay. 284 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:41,200 And I don't know that you will know what I'm talking about, but uh 285 00:21:39,120 --> 00:21:44,480 in my district, there was an encounter with two dogs that were running loose. 286 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:48,600 » Yes. >> And so, the question is, since Southport 287 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:53,720 doesn't have an animal control and Indianapolis animal control won't come 288 00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:58,560 to Southport, what are residents supposed to do about loose animals? 289 00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:03,240 » So, this has been my battle for 14 years with them. Unfortunately, animal 290 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:08,160 control's underfunded, understaffed. Uh I think, and I'm not exaggerating, 291 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:12,320 this is probably the 10th uh director of animal control that I've 292 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:16,920 had to deal with. One of the things that uh the reason why 293 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:22,880 they won't come in is because we created our own animal ordinances years ago. 294 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:25,560 So, in all reality, they can't issue tickets 295 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,840 for that. Uh 296 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:31,720 so, kind of the uh memorandum of understanding that we 297 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:36,040 have with each one, even the current one now, since that incident, uh cuz we 298 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:39,480 didn't want to change, is they will respond as long as a Southport police 299 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,320 officer is there. >> Okay. 300 00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:44,640 » Uh so, >> they respond to this one? 301 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,720 » They did not because we found out who owned them. 302 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:49,480 » Correct. It It had a happy ending. >> Yes. Yes. 303 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:55,120 » So, the the the short of the story was there was two 304 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:59,360 dogs and and they came into somebody in my district's yard. Well, then all of a 305 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,360 sudden, they would only they were protecting 306 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,600 that yard. >> Yeah. 307 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:09,080 They wouldn't let anybody come into that yard cuz Nathan came out, I came down, 308 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:13,760 and they were just very, very aggressive. 309 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:18,160 And so they they called and and then neighbors came out. And I 310 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:20,640 Did you come out, too? Okay. Anyway, I think there was another 311 00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:23,560 officer that came out. >> Yeah, Nate and Nathan were there. 312 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,880 » And so I mean these dogs were aggressive. I 313 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,480 mean, the the owners 314 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:36,360 not the owner of the property but stayed on the porch and stayed with them cuz we 315 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:39,840 have neighbors that are elderly, and he was really afraid that they would go. 316 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,360 But for some reason >> They liked him. 317 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:46,960 » They liked him. But then it went on social media and 318 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:51,920 someone had posted that their parent was dog sitting and this 319 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:56,360 what they looked like and it happened to be these two dogs. So they got in touch 320 00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:58,480 through social media and came and got the dogs. 321 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,320 » And they've let the dogs out three times since then. Twice and they've been 322 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,720 » Well, I think she just thought that they would stay there and 323 00:24:02,360 --> 00:24:08,440 » Well, they have a dog in the dog does. >> Yeah, but not 324 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:12,320 » Yeah, so so he's got to clean that up with him again. 325 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:16,920 A lot of times they want us to transport them, which we don't mind if the dog's 326 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:20,480 not aggressive. But these dogs Yeah, so yeah, that just kind of all 327 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,400 happened in the right 328 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,360 path. >> really just have to get the right person 329 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:29,080 on the phone and >> Yeah, well, if they had if for your 330 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,560 constituents, if you just tell them to call the 331 00:24:30,120 --> 00:24:36,240 the police station or my or the non-emergency number if we're if it's 332 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:39,480 not open, they'll dispatch an officer and then they will contact animal 333 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:44,440 control and then they will come out. >> I'm sure they're watching so they will 334 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:49,240 know that. Thank you. >> Any more questions on the police side? 335 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:54,640 » Anything else from the chief? >> Okay, public works. 336 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:57,520 Last month we had a couple questions at the end. 337 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,440 I don't know if you're going to like either one of them, but I'm going to 338 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:03,920 give them to you anyway. Um 339 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:09,640 So, I went by and I called citizens emergency police on this time and uh 340 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:15,400 asked about the fire hydrant. They said it has been tagged since January 341 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:19,600 and it was on the list. Um, I notified them that we have an 342 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:22,760 incident close to that area where if they needed a fire hydrant, they 343 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:26,680 wouldn't be able to use it. So, I was told that a supervisor would 344 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:30,000 get involved and they would try to push that up the list. 345 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:34,360 When I drove by last week, it's still tagged. So, uh 346 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,440 that's my latest report I have for you on that one. 347 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:40,480 Um, on your sidewalk issue, that isn't in 348 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:44,320 the right of way. It is actually on your property and I think our biggest problem 349 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,480 is that big tree in your front yard. >> Mhm. 350 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,920 » So, those roots are growing and it's it's made it it's kicked it up that way. 351 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,800 » So, we have to do something. >> Yes, ma'am. 352 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,760 » Okay. >> Those are the only two questions to you, 353 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,800 right? >> Yeah. 354 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,040 » Okay. All right. 355 00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:01,880 Um We put yellow bollards over the new 356 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:04,720 concrete bollards that are at the park, so you can see them. We did leave them a 357 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:08,360 little higher since the Perry seniors utilize that. 358 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:11,720 Hopefully, they'll see them. Um, 359 00:26:09,120 --> 00:26:15,280 we finally got the gutters uh in the building over there power washed, got 360 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:19,880 the gutters cleaned out and they actually cleaned the shelter for the 361 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:22,880 music in the park that we couldn't have due to rain. 362 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:27,080 Uh all of the 363 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:31,640 Community Crossing 2025 Community Crossing grant is completed. 364 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:35,680 They got the last bit of paving down last Thursday. There was a couple other 365 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:39,920 than the gun issue, there was a couple other issues they came and cleaned up. 366 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,840 Uh I have not heard a moment we're doing the walk through yet to check all of 367 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:47,000 them. Um 368 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:50,760 If you look at all the ones that we do, one of the things with the ADA 369 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:55,080 accessible ramps, they They out and said they all had to be done by, I think it's 370 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:58,480 like 2026 at one point. They kind of backed off of that because 371 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:02,760 of the cost um and then remember a couple years ago we 372 00:26:59,960 --> 00:27:08,440 couldn't get sealant. So kind of the strategy they put together was anytime 373 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:12,960 we do a road project that would um go by one or near one that we would do it 374 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:16,000 then. So all of the ADA ramps were done on all those streets, all the paving was 375 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:19,000 done. Uh 376 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:22,640 so project looks pretty good. I got 377 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:26,280 actually got some compliments. I don't get those much on how well the street 378 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,200 looked. Um we're waiting for the big rain still, 379 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:32,800 right? Okay. Um 380 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:36,880 so that one's done. Um we're looking at doing Crossgate 381 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:41,640 and then a couple um inlets coming in off Madison Avenue for 382 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:46,240 next year. That's why I asked if you guys would do the televising 383 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:49,800 for the storm water on Crossgate. If we're there and we know there's a 384 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:53,920 problem, we can fix it at the same time. Yeah, you have to remember the new 385 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:58,680 community crossing is a 2080 split now, so we're only paying 20% instead of 25. 386 00:27:57,120 --> 00:28:04,080 So if we can get more work done at a cheaper cost, we're trying to do that. 387 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:09,640 Um so that's done. Um talk about the fire hydrant. 388 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:14,160 The corners on McFarland and Southport and Southport and Madison 389 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:17,520 uh Big Dog Flooring um hired somebody to come clean those 390 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:21,120 up, plant flowers and stuff. That was a donation to the city, so thank Big Dog 391 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:24,200 Flooring for that. Next time you see Chris or Chip 392 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,960 and that's all I have unless there's any other questions. 393 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:32,440 Yes, sir. >> There is a 394 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:36,480 reflector in the asphalt on Market Street just south of the alley that 395 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,360 comes through with Jefferson. >> It's almost South Street. 396 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,120 » Do you know what that's for? >> I don't know if that's where they marked 397 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:45,120 the where they hold ones. >> It's like right in the middle kind of 398 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,640 sort of but 399 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:50,920 » I'll I'll ask Brad. I'll ask our engineer. 400 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:53,240 » That's about right where the sinkhole was that we had when they started 401 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,840 milling that. >> You talking about Market Street, right? 402 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:59,320 » Yeah, but it's it's by my yard. >> Oh, it's further down. 403 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:02,800 » Yeah, so it's almost to where you know, it's like right in the middle of the 404 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:06,640 asphalt. I thought maybe it was a lane marker, but we don't draw lane lanes on 405 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:10,040 Market Street. I mean, it looks like it's 406 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:15,680 » Is it about Jefferson and Market? >> It's just a little bit south of there, 407 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:19,480 maybe 20 ft, 30 ft. And it It looks fine. I just looked at it. 408 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:23,080 » Right. What is it? It's It's a new >> Yeah, but it's only one, right? 409 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:25,840 » Yeah, that's my point. >> Well, it's a one reflective thing. 410 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:28,640 » Yeah, it's just one reflective. There isn't another one further down or one 411 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:32,520 further up. >> I got no immediate answer for you. I'll 412 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,520 get you one though. 413 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:38,080 » The free world's not in danger, but I was curious. 414 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:40,360 » Probably fell off the back of the truck and it was 415 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,920 » It ended up in the pavement. 416 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,480 » Brad, he's supposed to call me next week. So, we have something scheduled 417 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,280 now. I was just wondering >> Yeah, maybe it is Market Street. I don't 418 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,640 know. >> Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I'm further 419 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,960 down, like I said, right about South and Market. 420 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:59,720 » That's where the hole was. >> Yeah, we had a 421 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:03,000 It's probably 3 ft wide by 10 ft long. Ooh, that's big. 422 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:06,600 » So, it was kind of like we did when we ran into the park parking lot project. 423 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,600 Had it right this time. >> That's what I don't know. 424 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:14,200 Yeah, we don't know why it's there, but we filled it and we packed it and we put 425 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:16,520 some milling in it and then our 426 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,960 Okay. >> Hopefully that that will 427 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,000 I mean, we haven't had problems before, so I'm okay. 428 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,760 » Yeah, there doesn't seem to be anything. >> But yeah, I don't know, but I'll 429 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:28,200 definitely ask him. >> Okay, thank you, sir. 430 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:32,240 » You're welcome. Any other questions? >> Why Why on Market is the last like 25 431 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:36,600 yards not okay? >> So, one of the things that we looked at 432 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:39,880 was one of that So, when you look at the road, you're looking for alligator 433 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:43,200 alligator alligator the 434 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:47,000 marks, stuff like that. We didn't have any on that end, so we didn't want to 435 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:50,400 tear up good asphalt just to put asphalt back down. 436 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:55,520 We tried to do that on some of them. We tried it on Marywood Court. We did a 437 00:30:53,480 --> 00:31:00,280 spot that was falling in. And then this year we 438 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:03,480 the the I guess east side of it we had to go through it and finish that part up 439 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:07,640 up to the circle. That was the same problem we had there. 440 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:12,160 They had ADA ramps going to the circle and grass area, but there's no sidewalks 441 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:16,800 over there, so we eliminated those and ran it all the way around. 442 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:21,160 So, but yeah, it's just cost, trying to save money. The budget for that project 443 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:24,800 was almost $780,000. >> How much is it? 444 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:29,960 » $770,000, something like that. So, it was a $3/4 million project that 445 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:32,316 we paid 25% on, so yeah, just cost gets into some of that, too. 446 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,600 » Okay. >> [snorts] 447 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:37,640 » It looks really nice, though. >> Well, thank you. 448 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,720 She's my first guest. Looks really nice. I'm like, "Thank you." Someone else is 449 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,960 screaming at me. You guys are doing a great job. 450 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,000 We'll get through it, I promise. Any other questions? 451 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:49,480 » Any other questions? >> Thank you, guys. [clears throat] 452 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:52,840 » Chief, moving on to Redevelopment Commission, 453 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,800 Mr. Trackwell. >> Yeah, so we had 454 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:59,560 a few things going on. We're still working on updating the redevelopment 455 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:05,080 plan. We're almost done with that, putting some final touches on that. 456 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:10,040 On the banner project, we've kind of gone on hold for that right now. There 457 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:13,680 were some issues. The um 458 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:17,440 we had eliminated some poles because there were dedications for flags, so we 459 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:23,040 weren't going to use those. Of the remaining poles that we were looking at 460 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:27,960 on Madison and on Southport Road, all but three of them have um 461 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,520 » They fiber optic running up the side. >> Yeah, they've got cables running 462 00:32:29,302 --> 00:32:34,560 [clears throat] up, and so we couldn't put bands on 463 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:40,120 um on that, so we're we're kind of stepping back and rethinking 464 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:43,720 um how we might proceed with that. Um 465 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:48,960 the billboard has been leased and we've signed the 466 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:53,560 agreement with the company that's going to do the artwork 467 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:57,360 and do that install. So that should be getting underway here 468 00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:03,000 uh shortly. On the utility box at 469 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:06,680 Southport Madison, we 470 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:12,280 selected an artist to work on that and we've gotten notices we are 471 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,280 required by the uh 472 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:19,720 ICC to send notices to property holders around and gotten three of the four of 473 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:22,640 them signed it back. Um 474 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:26,600 and getting ready to send out and hand 475 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:31,280 deliver some letters to uh businesses with regards to 476 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:35,480 installing bike racks uh on their 477 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:38,960 properties as uh uh and and or benches 478 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,160 um to help 479 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:45,320 make things a little more pedestrian-friendly. 480 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:50,000 And that's the basic update.
