[2:04] Be it resolved that council accept the

assistance with basement flooding due to
[2:15] the city storm drain backup. Brigden
Legion Street closure request and Moore
[2:22] Agricultural Society Brigden Fair Banner
request. We have a mover for the report.
[2:28] Councelor Lang
second. Councelor
[2:34] Foster. All those in favor to receive
carried. Okay. Would anybody like to
[2:40] make a motion for the basement flooding?
Deputy mayor. Yeah, I'll make a motion
[2:45] to receive a file. We don't have any
funds for that. We don't offer grants.
[2:50] We don't have the money to do that. The
only thing that I'm aware of is that we
[2:54] offer 1,500. I think 1,500 for a
backflow eliminator if it qualifies. We
[2:59] still do that. Yeah. But I think that's
all we have for sanity.
[3:04] Okay. Thank you, Deputy Mayor.
Secer Foster comment. Yep.
[3:12] Through the mayor. I just want to say to
the gentleman, um I also lived behind
[3:16] Albert Boulevard and the house was built
on a swamp back then. I repeatedly
[3:20] flooded and um was told the um sump pump
pits are too small. So, it may benefit
[3:28] um I did have basement boss come in. I
did have to um have a bigger sump pump
[3:32] put in and I've never flooded nor have
the new residents flooded since then.
[3:37] So, that could be a help. Thank you,
Councelor Brown.
[3:42] I I think um he had the full gamut of uh
replacement. Sounded like I don't know
[3:48] if his sump pump was working or not, but
um sounds like he's lived there for six
[3:53] years and didn't have a problem. So, I
don't know what storms he's referring to
[4:00] exactly. So, did uh resident ever call
back cuz I relayed that to him too that
[4:07] there was a we have a backflow
program. I was back and forth with I
[4:13] forget which one he used a while ago.
No, you've never had no correspondence
[4:18] with anybody uh through the mayor. Now,
I I don't don't know specifically if
[4:23] this is the same individual, but the the
backflow pretor is specifically for the
[4:28] sanitary. Um I think this particular
situation is more of a storm issue, but
[4:34] um yeah, historically that area is one
of the older areas um in in in the city
[4:41] or in the village and I think that um
yeah, it isn't quite designed to the
[4:46] standard of some of the others. But
regardless, there is a storm outlet
[4:49] there. Um, you know, I don't know all
the details of the situation, but yeah,
[4:55] I think uh, you know, a contractor could
help them through that, but there's
[5:00] obviously an insurance avenue they can
go if they have insurance, too. So,
[5:04] yeah, that's that's the sifting stuff
back there. So, that'd be God, 60 years
[5:09] old, probably. I would think in that
range anyways. Okay. Anybody else?
[5:12] Mayor. Oh, sorry.
Uh, the gentleman doesn't have a sump
[5:17] pump. There is no place for one and he's
sitting right here if you want to ask me
[5:21] questions
[5:26] through the mayor. Welcome. Um and
without the sump pump as well. I was
[5:30] speaking um with Mr. Neely and we were
just discussing it's part of you know
[5:35] unfortunately homeowners maintenance the
age of the home and things will break
[5:39] down. So you know I wish if we wanted to
help you we would open up a can of
[5:44] worms. We'd be helping everybody. It's
just something you're going to have to
[5:47] um basement boss. Well, I can't endorse
any of any of them, but I know I did
[5:52] have good luck with um
Okay. Um through the mayor, you can come
[5:58] up. Yeah. You want to just give your
name and your address. My name is Steve
[6:02] and click click the at the bottom
there's there's a plastic. Just click
[6:06] that till the There you go. Thank you.
Hi, my name is Steve Mai. We're live at
[6:10] 504 Albert Boulevard. Um, I've looked
into I did call public works and ask
[6:14] about the backup valve as we discussed.
Um, I completely understand that this is
[6:18] a homeowner issue. Um, however, several
other cities um, municipalities have a
[6:25] grant for waterproofing and subp pumps
and it's new sub pumps only, not
[6:31] replacements or not, um, adding a
backup. So, I fit the criteria for other
[6:36] communities. So, I've looked into that
and I'm again just I understand that
[6:42] budget's budget and that's why I'm here
to ask and I've like I said I've done
[6:47] all the homework as much as I can. Um
and unfortunately like nobody has the
[6:52] kind of money just laying around so it
does you know take a heat. Um and I do
[6:58] understand that that this is a issue
that Corona does have. Um, and yes, I
[7:04] understand that, you know, everyone
might be knocking on the door, but
[7:08] again, there's uh there's room for a
discussion about a grant and meeting
[7:13] certain protocols. Um, and that's what I
just wanted to convey today. Okay. Thank
[7:18] you. So, thank you. Thanks for coming.
We got a lot of music up here.
[7:26] Did I call that? Okay. All in favor of
the motion carried.
[7:39] Be it resolved that the request for a
temporary road closure of Brighgam Road
[7:43] between Boswell and Jane Street as well
as Jane Street from Brighgam Road to
[7:48] Duncan Street and Boswell from Duncan to
Brighgam Road from 12:30 till 2 on
[7:53] September 21st 25 to help facilitate the
Legion drumhead ceremony be approved. Do
[7:59] we have a mover for this? Councelor
Brown. Second. Councelor
[8:04] Myers. All those in favor?
[8:09] Carried. Be it resolved that the Brigden
Fair Committee be permitted to place a
[8:14] temporary banner across the street at
the main intersection in Brigden to
[8:18] promote the 175th anniversary of the
Brigden Fair from August to October.
[8:23] Deputy Mayor, I'd like to ask staff's
opinion on that before I make a motion
[8:28] to do it. Good. Anybody wants to speak
to this one? Okay. All right.
[8:34] Uh, yeah, I do have some concerns. Um,
the letter does state that this banner
[8:39] had been put up in the past. Um, I don't
know what year that happened and I don't
[8:43] know where exactly it was located. Um
but um my main concern is it I'm I'm
[8:50] have to assume that they're going they
want to put it up from hydropole to
[8:54] hydropole because there is no other
polls in Brigden. No street light poles
[8:58] owned by the township. So in that case
we don't own the poles and we don't have
[9:02] the permission or authority to say yes
or no attach something to these poles.
[9:08] Also,
uh I just a reminder that in Corona,
[9:13] this came up a number of years ago,
maybe 20 years ago, maybe uh putting
[9:18] banners up, there's specific banner
poles on Lindoc Street around Service
[9:24] Ontario kind of area that were
specifically designed to take the wind
[9:30] loads of banners. Um so, and Brigden
doesn't have such a thing. So, I just
[9:35] wanted to make those two comments.
Okay. That's across the county road
[9:42] also, is it not? Well, they're not
saying where I in the letter. Yeah. If
[9:48] it's across Courtray line, that is
county, but if it's across Brigden Road,
[9:52] then that's us. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So,
what would you like to do with this now?
[10:00] I would like to do uh through the mayor.
I would like to do as um councelor said
[10:04] Miller said refer to staff let them work
with more egg culture to come up with a
[10:08] solution.
[10:13] You okay with that David? Mhm. Okay.

so high.

we have. I think Andrew talks about the
[16:32] fact Don Euphemia has. So, we we know
they had good experience there. Um, and
[16:37] other mun municipalities have used these

[16:42] used for this particular work.

[18:18] tonight deputy mayor second
her councelor Foster any
[18:25] questions councelor Brown thank you
mayor Agar so we have enough money in
[18:31] this and the sounds like a good deal for
us and but we have to buy a a truck and
[18:37] trailer to move this around. Is it does
this unit have the same capabilities of
[18:43] what the full size one has?
[18:47] Uh yes, it does have the same
capabilities. Um it uh we don't have to
[18:52] buy a truck. We already own the trucks
like the tandem trucks. We simply just
[18:56] need to buy a um uh it's dovetailed
trailer that we could drive it up on uh
[19:03] and just drive it around as a unit
rather than wasting time. Uh it like my
[19:08] report says it does have a drawback of
going 40 km an hour maximum. So um
[19:15] that's the reason for that. Uh so it'd
be approximately $30,000 more to buy
[19:20] this trailer. um which will still be
well within the capital budget for that
[19:25] item. Thank you.
So are you keeping the other one too?
[19:32] No, we would be uh selling that off as
surplus. So just using that? Yeah. Okay.
[19:37] Thanks. Anybody else? All those in
favor? Carried.
[19:43] Uh, be it resolved that the June 2nd
community services information report as
[19:47] submitted by director of community
services Kendall Lindseay be received.
[19:51] Have a move for
[19:54] this. Councelor Foster. Thank you.
Second. Okay.
[20:02] Councelor
Langus. Now I have gotos
[20:06] everywhere. Question. Council Foster
through the mayor to Kendall. So have a
[20:11] question about the tennis courts. Um the
contractor uh you've been unable to
[20:17] multiple tents unable to get any him to
finish the courts or what's the status
[20:23] there?
Yeah, through the chair. Um yeah, we've
[20:27] had some issues getting him back on the
job this spring. Um so we've been trying
[20:31] to get him motivated to get back there.
Um we've seen a lot of work over the
[20:36] last couple like couple days last week
at the end of the week and then this
[20:39] weekend. But we're trying every avenue
to make sure he moves moves forward and
[20:44] gets the job done. Okay. Thank you. They
get the painting done though, right? So
[20:48] they're working on the actual court now.
Yeah. I think what was outstanding, I
[20:52] know Sue is not here, but there was a
lot of fence issues that needed to be
[20:55] done and uh those have been she went up
this morning. She told me she was quite
[20:58] happy with the fence work. Um some of
the concrete work she wasn't happy with,
[21:03] so it needed to be addressed. Um, so she
was going to get after about that, but
[21:06] all the grading had been done and that's
what needed to be, you know, they needed
[21:09] to finish the grading before we could
get in and finish the the surfacing on
[21:14] the court. Uh, she does have a meeting,
I believe, tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. We we
[21:18] are with a um a fellow that's helping us
out this Clive. He has a um kind of an
[21:23] expert on courts and put a lot in the
area. So, she's meeting with him
[21:26] tomorrow. She'll have a better idea
where we're at and by then I'm hoping
[21:30] that we can kind of come up with a
timeline. Perfect. There'll be a lot of
[21:33] pickle ballers happy when it's done.
Thank you.
[21:37] Uh, anybody else? Yeah. Council Brown, I
just uh wanted to ask uh Kendall the um
[21:44] Guthrie Park washroom renovation. Any uh
contractor in place to start that or
[21:53] uh through the chair. I was um I was
hoping that that might be a task for our
[21:57] new coordinator of facilities once they
came on board. some of some of that work
[22:02] would start to get tackled the backlog.
[22:08] Good. When's uh Seager I think it's
Seager get back into motion here.
[22:12] Kendall
done. Yeah, it's through the chair. So
[22:17] the last I want to say about 10 days ago
probably the finished they finished
[22:22] putting the sod down. Uh Williams put
the sod down so it was local. Um a lot
[22:26] of it took real nice but some of it
didn't on the slopes. So, we had some
[22:29] deficiencies there. They went in and
replaced it all on I believe Friday, the
[22:35] sod. Um, and then so now we're getting
very close. Um, we've asked them for 6
[22:41] weeks to clean up the fence and stuff
and they they haven't got to it. Um, but
[22:45] I'm hoping the fence can come
down. I'm hoping by the end of next week
[22:50] the fence could come down and could get
cleaned up and the park can get open.
[22:53] Good. Yeah, it looks it looks really
good. Yeah, I'm really happy with the
[22:57] the work. The it's it's really nice. The
features is a step down. The one bay has
[23:02] a step down with the railing. Yeah. And
I really like the way they finished it
[23:05] with the posts look good. Um I think we
need to replace a lot of our posts over
[23:11] the years have been weed whacked and
trimmed to death and be nice to carry
[23:15] that through the whole all the river
parks. Perfect. Thank you. Anybody else?
[23:20] All those in favor? Carried.
Uh, be it resolved that Kundai
[23:25] campground report as submitted by
coordinator of facilities and
[23:29] parksite be received and that funding
the cost associated with the necessary
[23:34] ditch
excavation, catch basin repairs and the
[23:38] purchase and installation of a grinder
pump from the campground reserve be
[23:42] approved. Do we have a
[23:49] moder? Anybody have any questions on
this? Seeing none, all those in favor?
[24:00] Carried. I will wait for the bylaw. So,
notice of motion. Councelor Holly
[24:05] Foster, you want to explain your motion?
Sure. My motion um for the finance
[24:11] department to give us quarterly reviews
as well as um the last five years and
[24:16] three years forward of our reserves. The
reason being being new to council, I've
[24:22] many times I was um confused where the
money is coming from, how the money is
[24:27] being handled. And I think if we um
provided a quarterly update on our
[24:31] finances, that's going to be helpful for
me and hopefully with council making
[24:35] decisions moving forward and as well the
reserves because I know there's been
[24:38] some like especially for myself some um
questioning um how the difference of the
[24:45] reserves have been handled. then I'll be
able to understand it as well as council
[24:49] um too. So that's the reason for this
motion. It's more clarific more
[24:52] clarification and helping with future um
uh decisions. Okay. So you moved it. Do
[25:00] I have a second for that motion?
Councelor Langus. Any questions? Deputy
[25:04] mayor. Yeah. I'd like to know, George,
how much more work is this going to be
[25:10] through the mayor? It will be quite a
quite a bit a few days extra work
[25:15] depending on what you're asking for. If
you're talking about a variance report
[25:19] like a variance from budget, I could add
it to the financial statements uh in say
[25:26] June and September at year end. We
already do that. So we do have one
[25:29] coming up for the 2024 year end. But uh
it will add a couple days extra work.
[25:38] Is that the third body too? Like I see
you have Charlie in here quite a bit
[25:43] too. Is that that would add to that?
Yes. Yes. We'd we'd probably Yeah. get
[25:49] Charlie to help probably we'll we'll
figure it out somehow to get it done if
[25:53] council wants us. Yeah.
The mayor. I understand it may take
[25:58] more, but I think it's extremely
helpful. A lot of municipalities do this
[26:02] as well, and it prepares council um to
know where where they're sitting
[26:06] financially. So, that was the reason.
Okay. Anybody else?
[26:11] Council Brown. Well, I'm just I
understand where councelor Foster's
[26:17] request is, but is it necessary to go
back for 5 years? And I would think that
[26:24] would
be
[26:28] extremely a lot of soulsearching. We we
we do get our financial statements.
[26:35] I I believe that we see
them quarterly now on the different uh
[26:42] accounts when we get the
accounts but I think five years is is a
[26:47] little too extreme. Counselor through
the mayor. I would like to ask this to
[26:52] be tabled to the next meeting then when
we have councelor Lang staff so that we
[26:55] can have everybody's input.
Okay. Anybody like to second that?
[27:07] Lang is the table that's the next
meeting. All those in favor one,
[27:13] two, three, four. Okay,
carried. Uh,
[27:21] bylaws. Be it resolved that the bylaw 18
of 25 encroachment agreement brine
[27:29] pipeline receive all three readings and
thereby passed and that the mayor and
[27:33] clerk be authorized to execute the
bylaws and any agreements there too.
[27:40] Mover. Councelor Brown.
Seconder. Deputy mayor. Any questions?
[27:47] Councelor
Brown. I I guess this is an existing
[27:52] brine pipeline from reading through
this. An existing 12-in brine pipeline
[27:56] that we're that Enbridge is taking over
from the previous owner, General
[28:01] Chemical. And to my knowledge, we didn't
have an agreement previously. Okay.
[28:07] Well, good work.
[28:12] Anybody else? All those in favor?
Carried.
[28:18] Uh, let's go. Counselor's
reports. Councelor
[28:25] Brown. Well, thank you, uh, Mayor Edgar.
Uh, the last two weeks have been,
[28:29] uh, doing a lot of yard work myself. So,
I only had one meeting, which was the,
[28:35] uh, St. Clair River Trail meeting
uh held on the 28th of May. So that's
[28:42] it. Thank you, Councelor Foster. Yeah,
since the last um I missed the last
[28:48] meeting um council meeting, but I prior
to that I attended the golf course um
[28:54] meeting. And then just an update, I had
a constituent ask about flags in Krena.
[28:58] So, I learned um uh through staff that
each town is allowed two banners or two
[29:04] lit or sorry, two um yeah, two banners.
Uh Krena already has two banners. Um
[29:10] technically or they use the lift truck
twice, Christmas lights and then for the
[29:15] veterans banners. So, um if there's
anybody wondering why we can't have can
[29:20] of flags, that was a request. um the
cost they would maybe um we already have
[29:26] two times that council already passed uh
I don't think it was a bylaw but maybe a
[29:32] intention that only two times staff
would be lifting and putting up
[29:37] different uh things in each town. So
that's it. Thank you deputy mayor.
[29:43] Uh I attended a committee uh meeting of
county uh committee of adjustment
[29:49] meeting. I stopped in at the uh book
sale in Corona on Friday. How'd you make
[29:55] out, Tracy? Pretty good. Couldn't count
people.
[30:00] Look pretty busy when I was there
anyway.
[30:03] Good. And I also uh was at the river
trail run yesterday. That's it. Thank
[30:09] you. What kind of book did you buy? I
didn't. Just left a donation. I don't
[30:13] need any more books. Thought I'd
catch Langus.
[30:19] On the 21st, I was at the St. Clair
Heritage meeting and this month. I have
[30:25] a question about the abandoned equipment
on more line that cable runner or
[30:30] whatever the heck that thing is that's
growing grass around it. They've been
[30:33] cutting their property and still sitting
there. Didn't turn my mic on.
[30:40] Yeah, I'm familiar with that. Um, it's a
directional drilling machine. Uh, it's
[30:45] owned by Flex Forward, the company
that's putting Kojico's fiber in. I'm
[30:50] not sure why they've left it there that
long, but I I can follow up with my
[30:54] contact for them and ask him to move it.
Good.
[31:00] Councelor Myers,
uh, I think the only thing I had was a
[31:05] heritage meeting on the 21st of May. Um,
and since nobody else has mentioned it,
[31:12] happy anniversary to the mayor and and
the first lady. Thank you. Thank you
[31:17] very much. Yeah, 40 years.
Yeah, I know. It's It's I don't know how
[31:23] she's lasted that long with me, but she
is. I know why I've stayed, but I don't
[31:28] know why she stayed. Thanks, Bill. Very
nice. Um, so I had a county meeting, a
[31:34] senior advisory committee. We do need a
rep for this from St. Clair. So, I think
[31:39] Terry was gonna get it to put it on our
website, but if anybody knows anything
[31:44] out in YouTubeville there about a senior
that would like to, not even a senior,
[31:49] just somebody that would like to go on
that committee, uh, it'd be nice to have
[31:52] one on there. I'm the county rep on it,
so I'm not really the Slair rep, but I'm
[31:58] taking care of it right now. So,
anyways, that would be a good thing if
[32:01] we could come up with a rep. uh I went
to law's meeting and with that down on
[32:07] 40 and uh white line with the with the
water main breakd down there I did make
[32:12] a motion to uh receive compensation for
the lost water on that. So they're going
[32:18] to wait till it's fixed up. I think the
the fix on that was what, Brian? 150 or
[32:24] something something in that. I can't
think of it right now. But so anyways,
[32:28] that's still in the works. If you get
any calls from people down that way, uh
[32:34] attended the river run yesterday. Didn't
run. Me and the deputy mayor ran from
[32:39] the parking lot. I
guess I went I was on a Zoom re the
[32:44] research park board meeting today and
that's it.
[32:49] Oh, okay. Did you have something your
worship? Just to advise council that
[32:54] fall plans go as planned, uh, June 10th
to 12th, we'll be taking the sirens down
[32:57] in Corona, the three old sirens. Oh, the
basis system just so council gets
[33:02] inquiry. That's what we're doing. Okay,
perfect. Thank you. Upcoming meetings,
[33:10] regular meeting session 11, June 16th at
6. Regular meeting session 12 July 14th
[33:17] at 3 and regular meeting session 13
August 11th 25 at 3 p.m. So now we're
[33:26] going to have an in little in camera. So
be it resolved that the meeting enter
[33:29] into an in camera meeting to discuss
section 239 28 information provided by
[33:35] the province. We have a mover of
this councelor Foster and councelor
[33:41] Brown. All those in favor carried.
