» Okay.
>> Okay. Is there anything that you want to

47
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:55,520
add to that at all?
>> Um all I I to say, I guess, from the

48
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:59,960
is that there was never any undue
thoughts when this thing happened of

49
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:04,840
trying to get away with something or not
doing the right thing.

50
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:10,240
I actually phoned the town office before
we moved here to get the property lines

51
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:16,760
where they were.
So, they sent me the drawing and then I

52
00:04:14,959 --> 00:04:20,519
called the before you dig and had them
come out and mark everything and before

53
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:25,240
I started putting
the chain and wood fence up, I had all

54
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:29,720
the documents and
never dreamed I would need a permit for

55
00:04:28,280 --> 00:04:34,080
a ground-level deck. I don't know if
you've seen the pictures, but really

56
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:38,080
right on the ground and it's a foot
within the property.

57
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:42,720
There was nothing untoward about it, but
then I found out there is a this kind of

58
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,919
a setback and I hope you'll
understand that.

59
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:49,160
Okay.
>> All right. Council has all the

60
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,880

your

application, so we will thank you for
that.

62
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:59,680
Okay. We'll be making a decision on that
once we close the the hearing unless any

63
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,800
members of council have any questions.
Okay.

64
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:05,320
So,
what do I do now? You can take a chair

65
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,240

question.

102
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:46,360

even know that because the shed that was

103
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:50,160
there before that we had replaced that
was infested with

104
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:53,800
rodents and skunks,
we just put this one right on the same

105
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:57,320
line, so

106
00:07:55,360 --> 00:08:01,360
» in the same spot, but yeah, we went
bigger into our yard and

So,
yeah, we didn't know we

108
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:07,400

>> Yeah, we didn't know we were

109
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,960
on that line cuz that's where the other

110
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:15,000
you've seen
neighbors on that line.

111
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:19,560
So, yeah, we're just asking that we can
leave it there,

112
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:23,560
preferably, but if there's uh there is a
space of spruce trees,

113
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:29,200
and then there's a
Westman MTS line that goes down there,

114
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:33,280
so that space will never be used unless
they're ripping up the MTS lines, but

115
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,479
I'm very aware. I used to live there.

» [laughter]
>> All right. Does council have any

119
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,760
questions?
>> [clears throat]

120
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,040
» Councilor White.
>> So, have you spoke to your neighbors

121
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:54,960
about this then?
>> Yes, they actually

122
00:08:52,120 --> 00:09:00,160
We already got them to sign an easement
with the lawyer, and then we got made

123

get the variance approved.

163
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,680
asked us to advertise on our platforms.
It's been on Facebook. And the fact that

164
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,720
we're having it received in public right
now is what they want us to

165
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:04,240

So they're going to be managing the

166
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:08,080

the staff who are contributing to the
report.

198
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:46,680
I keep thinking we should get a discount
because it appears that much of the work

199
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:51,160
that they need to do is already done by
Jerry and his team.

Uh just uh reading here when it says we
hired multiple contractors, just

227
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:06,000
wondering if uh
all their

228
00:17:04,199 --> 00:17:12,160
workers' comps were up to date or if we
do check workers' compensation

229

on the contractors.
>> Uh Mr. Harvey, our CAO, do you connect

230
00:17:14,360 --> 00:17:22,800
to that? Mr. Harvey, be easy. anything?
Best choice? Sure, we'll start with

231
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,800
Director Harvey, please.

232
00:17:24,199 --> 00:17:26,959
Mr. Harvey?

233
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:36,320
Sorry, just switching screens.
Uh yeah, we've taken a look at their

234
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,320
WCB.

235
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:43,480
So, that's a yes?
Yes.

236
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:47,640
Is that it, Counselor?
Well, I have a random thought. Yeah,

237
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:51,880
Counselor, or sorry, Deputy Mayor
Morrell.

238
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:55,160
Well, please Yeah, so looking through
the report and

239
00:17:53,360 --> 00:17:59,560
seeing that
CEO Tunney is going to be going on some

240
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:04,880
leave here
shortly, and I'm just curious as to

241
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:09,560
administration's capacity
to completely

242
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:14,720
do a full documentation
and

243
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:18,520
filling out the DFA grant or that grant
uh

244
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:22,280
the DFA assistance claim,
what the office capacity has for that,

245
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:26,960
and
maybe we should be looking at

246
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:31,760
engaging a third party to help assist
with the compilation of the information

247
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:37,880
and completion of that grant or that
grant application form

248
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:40,440
so that it's sent in in a timely
fashion.

249
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:43,840
So.
Yeah, good question. Something that

250
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:47,600
we've had with the office with going and
seeing how Tunney is. Yeah, we're uh

251
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:52,200
well on top of the claim process. We
actually have a long time to do it, but

252
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:55,920
we started uh immediately with the first
flood, Deputy Mayor Morrell. Uh we're

253
00:18:53,960 --> 00:19:00,240
also engaging Well, I shouldn't say
engaging. We're examining which uh

254
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:05,080
consultant to hire, which will be
covered by the DFA claim itself uh

255
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:11,520
because we do want to get it right, so
that is all a work in progress, and that

256
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:13,880
has no bearing on my absence for a week.
Okay.

257
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:17,720
Uh so, hearing what you said that you
are looking at that,

258
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:21,040
I'm fully prepared to present a motion
here tonight to authorize administration

259
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,480
to
indeed seek that third party.

260
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:33,600
» Okay, I don't know if you can make a
motion or a resolution because we don't

261
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,040
have that could have been changed during
the

262
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,200
beginning of the meeting. So, maybe
that's something that maybe can be

263
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,040
brought up at a future meeting. Does
that sound like what you're saying?

264
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,680
» Uh

265
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:53,960
I guess whatever I know it's if it's a
motion as a result of our discussion.

266
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:58,320
I know it's not on the agenda as a
specific item, but it's a a motion as a

267
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:02,400
result of this discussion from this
CEO report resolution.

268
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:05,520
» Is that can we not
>> I'm just questioning if we actually need

269
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:09,400
a resolution or if it'd be an
administrative decision or do we need to

270
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:14,400
have council approval for that?
>> Okay, so did you hear that?

271
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:18,520
» Uh yeah, I heard it. So, if we don't
need it, great, but I sent you a draft

272
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:21,840
there, CEO Tunyan,
should you need it in the future.

273
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:27,040
» Okay.
Anything further?

274
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:30,040
» Nope, I'm good.
>> Okay, thank you. Councilor Dwayne

275
00:20:29,120 --> 00:20:34,680
McEachern.
>> I don't know much about generators and I

276
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:39,320
heard Mr. Flaherty mention this one.
Within the high school back end by the

277
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:43,000
forestry, there's a huge motor like a
truck engine motor.

278
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:47,440
And I was led to believe that was a
backup generator device to keep the

279
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:50,800
school running if the power was down.
It's huge.

280
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,760
So, I read that McAdam doesn't know
about it.

281
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,000
I hope
I think they're mistaken. I could be, of

282
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,760
course.
>> What is your question?

283
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,920
» Well, it says that they don't have a
According to Reuben McAdam, there's a

284
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,520
high school no evidence of secondary
power generator for the facility. And I

285
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:09,400
think that's wrong. But, I think the
facility

286
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:11,800
has a giant generator device that does
the same job.

287
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,800
» That that probably would be something
that the school division would probably

288
00:21:13,120 --> 00:21:19,560
have to answer, but I don't know if Mr.
Harvey knows that at all.

289
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:23,120
» The next sentence is regardless of the
lack of a generator, the statement of

290
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:27,840
fact
no evidence of that statement of fact

291
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:32,560
was ever contradicted.
>> Mr. Harvey, any comments on that or

292
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:37,120
maybe Mr. G and the SEAL?
>> Yeah, I'm not I'm not sure you're

293
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,600
questioning our MEC's determination
there was no generator there. Is that

294
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,720
what you're saying?
I can follow up to see if he's mistaken,

295
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:47,640
but I wouldn't have put that down if I
didn't believe that he was correct.

296
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,640
» Well, wait.

297
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,040
I'm not sure if I was supposed to be
thinking this language was accurate

298
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,160
which is
there's no evidence for having one

299
00:21:53,120 --> 00:21:56,880
there.
I guess I mean they think there was one

300
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,600
and then it says there is one in the
next sentence.

301
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:03,720
So, I'd ask you to check that out
because if they have one, that's

302
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:06,680
information that should be
available.

303
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:10,000
» So,
our CEO will look into that

304
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:13,880
and actually see if that was accurate
and

305
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:17,360
any other further discussion on this and
the flood line.

306
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:23,120
I'll speak to the flood line.
>> Um

307
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,120
So, are we

308
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:29,720
Like when are we talking about the flood
and everything that happened and when

309
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:32,360
are we debriefing on that slash
>> That would be in one of our town

310
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,640
meetings in
the next

311
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:38,840
What are we
>> Like when is that September?

312
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:41,560
» No, and I that's there's no call for
that whatsoever.

313
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:44,440
» I have asked
the directors to work with me so we can

314
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,720
have a third week of August one of the
town

315
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:51,520
meeting at home meeting.
>> Oh, okay. I didn't mean that. And I

316
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:54,920
I meant like is that not till September
cuz there's no regular meeting till

317
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,760
August. I'm thinking
Go ahead.

318
00:22:55,560 --> 00:23:00,200
» Yeah, I didn't I didn't take it that
way. I just hadn't advertised it that I

319
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,840
just as a matter of fact the staff
committee said, "Hey folks, let's try to

320
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:07,760
get it for the 11th.
It was too soon this week and we have a

321
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:11,440
stacked agenda. Probably too soon for
our next week, too late for our next

322
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:14,720
regular meeting, so
we can put it on the agenda for our next

323
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,760
committee of the whole, which is what we
did last time as well.

324
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,320
So, August 11th is what we're shooting
for.

325
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:26,720
» Okay.
Um and then

326
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,720
the Manitoba Housing discussion.

327
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:33,560
What does that involve and what
>> They actually even They actually

328
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:36,920
requested to have me in a meeting.
Uh let's see, between you

329
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:40,240
and so we can give us the details on
that. So, that's something that is

330
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,720
» All right.
>> somewhere there. I don't know. It'll be

331
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:47,120
something that I will have to report to
council once I hear from them what they

332
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,240
want to talk about.
>> Okay.

333
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:59,800
» Well, that's just about the end of the
meeting notes.

334
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:03,000
» Oh, the financial audit.
Are we normally this

335
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,600
Are we normally late to get this
completed in 2023?

336
00:24:05,120 --> 00:24:08,880
» So
>> there what what am I missing and why

337
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:12,151
would it be so delayed?
>> So, CFO Gade went over that I think in

338
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,400
one of the questions that we had
>> [cough]

339
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:19,200
» during that meeting that we had that
presentation. Um

340
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:24,920
we have committees that uh that receive
money, municipal money, from the Town of

341
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:29,960
Swan River and by law
we need to make sure that each of those

342
00:24:27,360 --> 00:24:34,160
committees are providing their financial
documents

343
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:39,240
uh to the Town of Swan River.
Uh audited financial statements usually

344
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:44,800
is the case in order for us to complete
our own audit. It's required.

345
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:49,480
And that's what holds it up.
Now, if CFO Gade wants to expand on that

346
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:52,880
a little bit, I'm not
I'll invite him to uh to respond to that

347
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,880
as well.
CFO Gade.

348
00:24:58,360 --> 00:25:05,480
» Uh just with lot of staff turnover and
new inexperienced

349
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:08,400
managers, things have fallen behind. So,
I'm working as hard as I can to catch

350
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:12,600
up.
>> Yeah, that I wasn't in any way meaning

351
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:15,687
that in a condescending
manner or asking. I was just curious.

352
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:20,240
Like you thought there must
[clears throat] have been something.

353
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:24,160
Cuz then I wonder if we've got uh
committees that haven't provided their

354
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:28,360
statements
for 2024 yet.

355
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:32,840
Like
is that on us to ensure that before

356
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:36,040
we're continuing to fund, and I know
that puts the that's in an awkward

357
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:39,000
position. I can't imagine being on the
phone with somebody that says, "Well, we

358
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:42,200
really need the money." And I'm like,
"Yeah, but you got to have your

359
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,160
statements in because we have to have
our stuff done with it." Is that Does

360
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,320
that
>> Well, that's that's part of it, not the

361
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:50,360
whole thing. Like you would like to see
if we would need to send with the

362
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:55,160
staffing and all that. A lot of times
those come in, but they do come in late.

363
00:25:52,720 --> 00:26:00,480
Like just recently, um members of
council and committees received notice

364
00:25:57,360 --> 00:26:06,840
saying, "Hey, we need to see what these
financial documents look like so that we

365
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:12,440
can continue on with either paying the
funds to those entities or continue on

366
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:16,280
with our own audit as well."
Thanks. CFO Greeda.

367
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:24,240
» Uh yeah, as I reported when I presented
the 2023 financial statements, the

368
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:29,120
auditors have the 2024 records. So,
they're working on it. Soon as they'll

369
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:34,440
have their audit done, then it'll be
coming to council for approval. And then

370
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:38,480
I as I mentioned, the 2025
cannot be completed yet cuz still

371
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:42,720
waiting for financial statements from
some entities. Although,

372
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:47,160
just received the library's
a few minutes ago,

373
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:51,200
but haven't heard anything at all about
the planning district

374
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,160
or eyes.
>> Awesome. Thank

375
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,320
» you.
>> Okay, very good. CEO Timlin, did you

376
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:59,320
have something?
>> I was just going to put some context for

377
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:03,000
Councillor White. White with an I.
Councillor Daisy White. Um

378
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:08,280
just so you know, too, last year the
province had the auditor general do do

379
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:13,000
an an audit across the province. And as
a result, the province has

380
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:17,480
I would say strengthened their stance on
the deadlines for financial audits. So,

381
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:22,440
what may have been forgiven before uh
their like the letter that we just

382
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:26,160
received says, "If you don't provide it,
you will have your funding

383
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,680
uh frozen."
And the reason why they're doing that is

384
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:32,760
because they're saying, "We're going to
hold you accountable."

385
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:35,800
I would suggest it wasn't such strict
guidelines before.

386
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:39,200
So,
we're doing a great job catching up, so

387
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:42,120
we're kind of saying
>> Okay, thank you.

388
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:45,760
Councillor White, what do you
>> Uh Mr. Granata, I'm led to believe you

389
00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:49,480
got everything you needed from medical
services just recently, also.

390
00:27:51,120 --> 00:27:57,040
» Uh yes, just within last few days, so we
got the statement from the

391
00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:00,680
uh
fund for recruitment of and retention of

392
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:05,280
medical professionals.
>> And they did.

393
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:09,600
» Okay, so any other discussion? Go
>> Um I I would just like to also say it's

394
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:13,080
not like these committees are not asking
for the financial statements they have

395
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:17,240
done. You know what I mean? Like we are
and I know we've had a lot of our stuff

396
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:20,480
with them. They're accounting for quite
some time, but um

397
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:24,640
things happen. There's just so You know
what I mean? Like tax donations and

398
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:29,560
stuff like that. So, but yes, we are
like seriously we're like, "Okay." Cuz

399
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:33,480
our funding completely
completely runs on if we can get that.

400
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:37,760
Like when we get our grant from the
town, but we we did get from my but our

401
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:42,000
North Valley Public Library Public
Library

402
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:46,840
won't give us funding itself. So, right
now we're just left with we're in a good

403
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:51,920
financial spot anyway. We're barely able
to hold ourselves right now because most

404
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:56,560
communities can't. You know where is our
money going? It's not going

405
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,560
to that.

406
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:04,480
» Just after
see if we could eat a steak. I think you

407
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:08,840
little nudge last week that and you
listed the groups

408
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:15,160
and I I heard the straight all of them
that you nudged very politely have

409
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:21,800
replied we have to do that more often.
>> Okay, any other discussion?

410
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,800
Okay, all in favor.

411
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:27,080
Opposed.
>> It's carried. Somebody has their cell

412
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:30,160
phone on so can you please put your cell
your phone on silent so we can hear

413
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:32,760
what's going on.
Somebody

414
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:37,000
to my left.
I don't know where it's coming from.

415
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,920
» Okay, you're up.
>> I think

416
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,360
» Yeah, I heard it.
>> I think it might be my cell phone like a

417
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:46,520
notification noise or something.
Just put your phone on silent.

418
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:51,040
» I'm not.
>> Okay, moving on.

419
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:55,920
We have resolved the
director of public works report be

420
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:59,520
received. Moved by Councilor Ainslie
White, seconded by

421
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:03,600
Councilor Robin.
Discussion.

422
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:08,760
Councilor Blainey.
>> Well, not just to public works but to

423
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:12,680
Councillor Tucci and his team and his
public works etc. etc.

424
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,840
Uh
certainly went really really well

425
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:19,400
through the first two years of the
council and prepared for

426
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:22,160
all being thrown at us but our team
talented team and the people that helped

427
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:26,160
with
certainly did exactly what we hoped they

428
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,160
would do.

429
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:34,600
» Any other discussion?
Councilor Ainslie White.

430
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:39,000
» Um I was curious if we were
participating I can't I can't remember

431
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:44,560
who suggested it but it was for the
valley to do an assessment. Um

432
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:51,040
I can't remember where I read it, but it
was proposed that we wouldn't do just

433
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:56,200
our area. We would as a collective do a
water a flood plan going forward based

434
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,520
upon the events that happened.
>> I think that was kind of thrown out

435
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,320
because we're going to do our own
briefing just like any other

436
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:06,480
municipality. We'll be doing that, but I
think that there have been some talk

437
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:10,400
about having a full discussion having a
Chief Harvey or something like that. And

438
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:14,600
that was coming out of the first flood,
I believe, is where that came up.

439
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:19,040
» Because we were talking here where that
um or Director Harvey had said that

440
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:22,760
inquired with the MO on the 1 and 200
flood mapping that we don't have flood

441
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:25,560
mapping.
And then

442
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:29,640
» Sorry.
>> No, no, no. It was somehow proven like

443
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:32,720
because we haven't had a flood in so
long, we can't even use and things have

444
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:37,240
changed so much that we can't even
really use this irrelevant and so that

445
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:41,040
Anyway, yes, please.
>> Director Harvey.

446
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:44,920
» Sorry, the 1 and 200 flood mapping for
Tamarack. So, we do have 1 and 200 for

447
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:47,880
the Swan River,
but not for Tamarack Creek.

448
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:54,600
» And it's a like
>> So, that's what we're requesting if they

449
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,600
can generate the 1 and 200 for Tamarack.

450
00:31:54,640 --> 00:32:01,000
» Thanks.
>> Any further discussion on the Director

451
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,000
Gordon Broom's report?

452
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,040
All in favor?

453
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:10,240
It's carried.
7.3

454
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:15,040
Be it resolved the Director Gordon
Broom's report be received.

455
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:20,360
Moved by
Councillor Dwayne White, seconded by

456
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:23,120
Councillor Ainslie White.
Discussion?

457
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:30,040
Discu- uh
Deputy Mayor Morigeau.

458
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:39,720
» Yeah, I'm just uh
inquiring uh Director Gordon Broom, um

459
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:44,760
what's the status or plan and staffing
capacity to uh

460
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:49,000
get the both Legion and Rotary Parks
cleaned up and open to the public in a

461
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:53,480
safe fashion.
Do you have the staff for that or do we

462
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:57,680
need to look at outside contractors to
help uh

463
00:32:54,880 --> 00:33:04,160
mitigate some of that damage and uh
debris that's in there?

464
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:09,640
» We have already have a number of
pool staff that were wanting more hours

465
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:13,560
doing some things in recreation. So,
they've gone through and they've cleaned

466
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:17,560
up all of the garbage.
They've been cleaning off the stage

467
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,040
towards it hosing down benches and and
repainting and doing some of those

468
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:24,880
things.
Our recreations actual recreation staff

469
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:31,120
have already
gutted out the concession that got flood

470
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:36,760
damage and the bathrooms, but we will
have contractors come in to redo those.

471
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:41,200
We just don't want to take away from
houses that needed more than

472
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:46,800
our facilities at the park right now.
So, we'll wait on that.

473
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:52,560
And then we do have we have called in a
a contractor to go through and look at

474
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:56,880
all of the trees in the park because a
number of them did fall down and need

475
00:33:54,320 --> 00:34:01,000
clean up. And we want to make sure by
professionals that what is still

476
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,880
standing is safe.
So,

477
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:08,919
they were they just updated me today
that they're about 75% done reviewing

478
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:12,800
that and we'll go from there.
So, our goal is to hopefully have it

479
00:34:10,879 --> 00:34:16,200
reopened at the beginning of August and
to continue with the programming that we

480
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:19,200
were going to be doing down there this
summer.

481
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:23,240
» Okay.
Reason why I asked is that

482
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:28,520
those are two gems, especially the
Legion Park and the sooner we can get

483
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:32,360
those facilities parks ready for the
public would be better, but we have to

484
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:35,720
make it safe. So,
um we can maximize the use of

485
00:34:33,679 --> 00:34:39,320
contractors and then put those costs on
our DFA application um should they be

486
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:42,320
eligible,
um

487
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:45,320
we should be looking at that direction.
And

488
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:49,679
also uh do we have a timeline of when
the the sweeper, if it's able to or is

489
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:54,080
it possible for them to go on the
passing region park to sweep up the

490
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:57,440
cement? Um and I forgot to ask uh Mr.
Harvey too about uh a first pass on the

491
00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:01,360
streets.
>> Yeah, Director Harvey and I were

492
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:04,520
actually speaking about this today about
uh you know,

493
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:09,280
what we were we'll have to do to look at
to get uh some of the the areas on his

494
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:12,640
streets cleaned as well as the the pass
of the park, so maybe he wants to speak

495
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:18,320
more on that.
>> Okay, Mr. Harvey.

496
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:23,520
» Uh so we have done passes in some areas,
but like 7th Ave North, there's still a

497
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:27,960
fair amount of mud there, so I had the
contractor

498
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:32,280
uh that was collecting the flood debris
from materials trying

499
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:37,360
scrape [snorts] the asphalt a little bit
just so that our sweeper could be more

500
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:41,480
effective when it goes. Um so we're
going to go there this week,

501
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:44,960
but we might have to do a second pass
cuz they're still hauling a bunch of

502
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:47,840
material over there.
>> Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to be all

503
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:51,000
cleaned up on the first pass, but at
least get the bulk of it out of there so

504
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:56,520
it's not so muddy and dusty for
residents there and in the park, so um

505
00:35:53,520 --> 00:36:00,880
but I guess my point is that if um
if you need a resolution to authorize

506
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:03,960
contractors, um
to the full extent, uh I'm willing to

507
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:08,680
bring that forward, but if you guys
still need that and are actually going

508
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:12,400
down that path, great.
>> Yeah, I I think we are in both

509
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,520
departments uh very much going down that
path.

510
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,760
» Okay.
Very good. Excellent questions uh by the

511
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:24,920
way
uh Counselor Ainsworth.

512
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:30,240
» How did the inspection go today?
>> The inspection went really well.

513
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:34,400
Yeah, that's great. They they did have
to

514
00:36:31,240 --> 00:36:39,800
recoat all of the pipe hangers, all of
the cuts they made on the pipe hanger on

515
00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:44,080
the actual hangers after they
put them up. So, they did do two coats,

516
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:47,520
but the inspector would like to see a
couple more especially in some spots.

517
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:52,160
So,
it's tonight. Yeah, tonight they are

518
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,000
doing
That's what they're doing tonight is

519
00:36:53,280 --> 00:37:00,320
going through and putting the thin coat
of finish touches on that epoxy on the

520
00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:04,760
end of the hangers and then they'll just
have to come and do some pipe wrap at

521
00:37:02,240 --> 00:37:11,080
some point, but it's pretty much done.
Yeah, so it went really well.

522
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,080
» That is really a discussion.

523
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:15,160
» Okay.
>> All in favor?

524
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:18,920

Councilman Ainslie White, seconded by
Councilman Babic.

543
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,960
Discussion.

544
00:38:55,280 --> 00:39:00,920
Councilman Babic.
>> So, how did we come up with the figure

545
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,920
of

546
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,800
What figure are we talking about there?
>> Okay, I think we went over that. Go

547
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,320
ahead.
>> Yeah, I was just going to say we went

548
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:14,360
over that at the uh the council meeting,
Councilman Babic. It was uh an average

549
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:17,080
Well, actually, I would like Director
Army explain the same thing that I

550
00:39:15,720 --> 00:39:19,760
explained before, if you wouldn't mind,
Director Army.

551
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:28,840
» Uh yes, so it's the last two quarters
but of the same quarter cuz people have

552
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:32,280
different consumptions throughout the
year

553
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:38,800
and average those
and then subtracted that from

554
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,800
their last bill.

555
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:45,480
So, basically, what their normal
uh bill would have been.

556
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:52,080
» Do you want
>> We use the last two quarters

557
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:57,320
or the last two quarters of that same
time period.

558
00:39:54,720 --> 00:40:02,680
And average it and subtract that from
the bill when the leak happened.

559
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:06,280
» Any other discussion?
Councilman Babic.

560
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:10,120
» Yeah, I just kind of
find it that you went exactly the same

561
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:13,520
as what you would have paid normally.
Like, there's no repercussions for

562
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:16,480
having the leak there with the after the
thing. So, what

563
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:20,240
I'm I'm not saying that that was the
fault of anybody's, but at the same time

564
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:24,840
that doesn't mean
that you can go ahead and

565
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:28,240
I don't want to forget everything today.
Caution. Council this type of person

566
00:40:27,240 --> 00:40:30,880
that
So,

567
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:35,240
this guy president that
if you had a leak or something

568
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:39,560
if you saw the town with no hot water,
if I had a leak, I can't come to you and

569
00:40:37,240 --> 00:40:42,200
say, "Well, this is my normal way of Why
would I get

570
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,840
goodness?"

571
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:51,520
» Is there any any other discussion with
Council Dwight White?

572
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:54,160
» I think the numbers are a suggestion or
a suggestion that we have to live by and

573
00:40:53,240 --> 00:40:58,200
not
those numbers are based in data that the

574
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:01,480
town has arrived
with the records.

575
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:04,160
So, maybe these things can be gathered
and sent to

576
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,880
the government for the future of what's
happening.

577
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:10,880
If you charge what you are, which is no
more, no less.

578
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,600
» I I
I I I totally understand that, but I

579
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:17,320
guess my what I'm saying is you're
setting a precedent.

580
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:21,720
So, the next guy does exactly the same
thing down the street, so you're going

581
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,720
to do that.

582
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:26,160
» Council Dwight
>> Um

583
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:30,400
we discussed this already.
>> Yes, exactly. We did. Yes, and it's just

584
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:35,120
the agreement.
>> So, I mean

585
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,120
we have a compromise.

586
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,920
Okay.
>> Any other discussion?

587
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,840
All in favor?

588
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:49,720

Councilor Ainsworth White. Discussion?

595
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:20,680
Councilor Lombardi?
>> I I just I don't know what to say here.

596
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:25,960
I I This has been going on for years
back and forth back and forth. So, I

597
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:31,080
I really don't think our staff putting
any more effort into it than they do to

598
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:31,080
deal with this long time.

599
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:36,640
Councilor McKenzie and I were both
involved in that years ago and this is

600
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:39,400
These deals have been made and
dissolved that I don't know how many

601
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:43,960
times because
the council has changed or somebody

602
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:49,000
decides it's not good. I think
I would love to see Yarmouth grow a lot.

603
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:52,920
That's what we do for our neighbors, but
at the same time

604
00:42:51,240 --> 00:42:56,000
I don't think it matters what we put in
there. There's going to be a change. So,

605
00:42:54,120 --> 00:43:01,120
I don't know why the Municipality of
Yarmouth doesn't give us a proposal.

606
00:42:58,720 --> 00:43:04,040
Let that be the proposal and let
us look at it.

607
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:08,680
Same to you.
>> I just want to clarify for council's

608
00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:11,800
benefit and for expediency, these things
are just to receive what we've already

609
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,560
received and discussed at the community
hall.

610
00:43:12,720 --> 00:43:18,320
It's a resolution later on to vote on
and that's where we would debate it, but

611
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:21,640
this is just to receive the documents
for

612
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:24,960
the official receipt of voting because
I've had a community poll where they've

613
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:29,360
received it in public like they would do
now.

614
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:33,800

Blaine White.

648
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:16,520
» Uh
regular regular things happen all the

649
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:19,280
time. June the 23rd we had our council
meeting and uh

650
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:23,080
I wish we had a little bit of fun with
council but nobody would but didn't

651
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:27,440
discuss that at the time but we talked
about things and financing. On July the

652
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:31,240
3rd we had a special meeting of council
to talk about

653
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:34,200
status of the roads seeing but declaring
a state of emergency which fortunately

654
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:37,440
we did do
because in the I think for us you know

655
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:42,560
the two million investment seemed to
work out much easier.

656
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:47,560
On July the 21st I met with Reed Berman
and we're talking about financing for

657
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:50,880
medical services and those monies we put
in for

658
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:55,080
recruiting and retention
we put into a fund managed by Val

659
00:46:53,440 --> 00:47:00,400
McDonald.
So I think that four came and I have

660
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:04,360
been communicating not well with my but
with the PMH

661
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:08,480
the medical service team letting them
know that if we can help them with the

662
00:47:06,240 --> 00:47:11,640
dolphin situation for example please
contact us and we'll certainly try to

663
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,880
help you too.
So I'm waiting to hear back from them.

664
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:17,000
Thank you.
>> Thank you.

665
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:20,360

668

Uh same thing council meetings. I would
like to let you know that I just would

669
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:34,560
like to mention that
water service is still doing the

670
00:47:32,240 --> 00:47:37,960
testing.
That's all I have.

671
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:43,360
That's all I have. Okay.
>> Uh Deputy Mayor Moriarity.

672
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:46,920

Councillor Mosley, I

I think we've all made you aware of the
town and everything that we attended at.

687
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:52,760
We did have a library meet AGM last

688
00:48:53,440 --> 00:49:00,400

707

I thank you for the personal invitation

711
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:27,200
staff there is like
gradually

712
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:33,000
gradually you guys have all that.
For myself Swan River Health Facilities

713
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:36,520
Foundation is moving along with similar
administrative changes so we now have

714
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:40,600
some new people in place we're just
trying to meet up during the summer

715
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:45,640
months which is kind of sometimes a hard
thing to do but we still have some other

716
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:51,000
things that we're dealing with. We I did
speak with CAO

717
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:55,640
CEO Tracey Smith about some of the
issues with the hospital and have

718
00:50:52,720 --> 00:51:01,480
provided space in our
foundation house if we need to have

719
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:05,960
nurses stay there and whatever support
staff they need for any additional

720
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:10,600
services or procedures that need to be
provided in our hospital from the

721
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:14,200
Dauphin area so that's something that is
ongoing but we had some communications

722
00:51:12,720 --> 00:51:19,480
last week
through our foundation.

723
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:23,120
Also the vet board
we are working on

724
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:28,960
doing our building repairs I believe
that started yesterday so hopefully we

725
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:31,640
can mitigate some of the issues with uh
some water leaking into the building

726
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:35,480
that we've been dealing with over the
winter months for the last two years so

727
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:38,400
that's ongoing
and that's

728
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:40,600
it for me for my
committees.

729
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:49,720
So we move on to 8 8.1.
Whereas Rail Safety Week

730
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:55,920
is to be held across Canada from
September 21st to 27th, 2026.

731
00:51:53,480 --> 00:52:01,120
Whereas 252 rail crossings and
trespassing incidents occurred in Canada

732
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:06,760
in 2025, resulting in
69 avoidable fatalities and 60 avoidable

733
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:10,600
serious injuries.
Whereas educating and informing the

734
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:15,920
public about rail safety, reminding the
public that railway railways are private

735
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:21,200
property, and raising awareness
of the dangers associated with highway

736
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:25,800
rail grade crossings, ensuring
pedestrians and motorists are looking

737
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:30,680
and listening while near railways, and
obeying and obeying established traffic

738
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:35,720
laws will reduce the number of avoidable
fatalities and injuries caused by

739
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:41,000
incidents involving trains and citizens.
Whereas Operation Lifesaver is a

740
00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:45,760
public-private partnership whose aim is
to work with the public, rail industry,

741
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:51,000

media, and others to raise rail safety

742
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:56,520
awareness. And whereas CN and Operation
Lifesaver has requested city council

743
00:52:53,600 --> 00:53:01,120
adopt this resolution in support of its
ongoing efforts to high to raise

744
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:05,360
awareness, save lives, and prevent
injuries in communities, including our

745
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:13,280
municipality. Be it resolved that
National Rail Safety Week be declared

746
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:17,680
from September 21st to 27th, 2026.

Whereas at the June 23rd, 2026

750
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:39,680

Moved by

757
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:10,760
Mr. Hanson White, seconded by Councillor
Powell. Any discussion?

758
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:17,240
Go ahead, Councillor White.
>> I just I agree with everything there

759
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:20,640
except that it has to be all Council
members.

760
00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:23,400
Anyone absent
one or more members could have that

761
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:26,920
Council meeting.
>> Say that again.

762
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:33,280
» It says right here that all members have
to be present

763
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:33,280
to make a change whatever it is.

764
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:37,640
» Oh, so that's to change the bylaw. Let's
change

765
00:54:37,240 --> 00:54:39,200
» to change it.
>> So we we could still go through the

766
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,280
head.
>> We're not changing

767
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:46,720
» all that night. We're going through the
process of changing it. So that's

768
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:50,000
what the CAO is asking for is what it is
a Council would like to see that would

769
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:53,840
start the ball rolling as far as
changing the bylaw.

770
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:56,920
» I agree with everything you read there
except it has to be 100%.

771
00:54:56,080 --> 00:55:00,040
» Go ahead.
>> Just for clarity, um

772
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:05,840
there is no sounding disrespectful. This
has been on the agenda a number of times

773
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:10,040
and
I've requested Council tell me what

774
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:13,640
changes they want incorporated. So
that's something we can do by putting it

775
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:17,040
into an official resolution with a date
that we can have some movement so we can

776
00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:20,200
get this thing going
at our next Council meeting. So I would

777
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:24,080
encourage you, Councillor White, if you
have specific changes you want to see,

778
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:27,360
if you can bring them to my attention so
we can put them into the draft.

779
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:31,440
Okay?
>> Any further discussion? Uh Deputy Mayor

780
00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:34,440
Mourial?
>> Uh

781
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:40,760
yeah, looking at this, um since we're in
the waning 3 months of uh

782
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:45,720
our term, uh I think it's uh uh
I don't know, to me it is basically

783
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:49,840
not to uh be
to only rule it out, but a waste of

784
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:53,200
time. Uh if there's changes, I would say
let the uh new council that's going to

785
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:57,560
have to live with these changes make
those changes after the election.

786
00:55:55,680 --> 00:56:00,840
Um right now we could be by the time
this bylaw's passed and then we go

787
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:05,680
through the third reading, it's going to
be October anyway and it's wasting our

788
00:56:03,240 --> 00:56:05,680
time.

789
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:12,800
» Okay.
Let council decide that. That's

790
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:17,320
Any further discussion?
All in favor?

791
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:19,760
Opposed?
This motion carried.

792
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:23,600
Um
August 7th is the deadline.

8.3
Whereas a leak in the Starlight Mobile

794
00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:39,440
Home Park water distribution system
discharged

795
00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:43,160
directly into the sewer system and was
not detectable during normal

796
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:48,440
maintenance. Whereas the leak resulted
in an abnormally high utility bill of

797
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:48,440
$30,491.44,

798
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:54,720
and whereas the property owner had been
advised of the water leak

799
00:56:52,720 --> 00:56:59,120
credits are granted only once per
property and any future leak-related

800
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:03,960
charges will be the owner's
responsibility.

801
00:57:00,720 --> 00:57:10,880
Be it resolved that administration is
authorized to issue credit of $21,916.44

802
00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:14,800
to Starlight Mobile Home Park,
representing the difference between the

803
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:20,760
billed amount and the average utility
cost for the same quarter of both of the

804
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:23,880
last two previous years.
Moved by

805
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:26,920
Councilor White.
Seconded by

806
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:30,120
Councilor Beasley White.
Any discussion?

807
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:33,320
Councilor White.
>> Well, I'm just saying that when you look

808
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:39,480
at StarLink trailer court I don't follow
them all on their user. So at the same

809
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:41,960
time we have a municipality of 1.8. Same
time we're setting pressing into your

810
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:48,520
body.
Let's say there is a agreement made

811
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:48,520
between municipalities they have a leak.

812
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:57,280
Except the person.
>> I think that administration will look at

813
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:59,960
that and they case-by-case situation. I
have

814
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:04,840
to consider and think about it so maybe
you can bring that to us.

815
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:08,360
I don't know Mr. Harvey want to and have
any response to that or or

816
00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:18,680
It's nothing.
Oh, Mr. Harvey I did call you.

817
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:26,400
» Sorry, I didn't have my mic on.
Um yeah, we look at it case-by-case. In

818
00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:31,720
this case it was going underground into
the sewer system so it wasn't visible

819
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,720
from the surface.

820
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:38,400
» Okay. Any further discussion?
All in favor?

821
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:42,040
Opposed?
It's carried.

822
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:46,520
Okay.
8.4

823
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:50,400
Whereas the town of Swan River has an
ongoing agreement with the province of

824
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:54,120
Manitoba as a service provider for the
Swan Valley Employment and Training

825
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:57,880
Project. Whereas the province of
Manitoba is requesting renewal of the

826
00:58:56,000 --> 00:59:01,840
agreement and amendments to the previous
agreement to accommodate year-end

827
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:06,680
closure requirements. And whereas the
CAO has reviewed the updated agreement

828
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:11,360
with the province of Manitoba project
officer responsible for this matter and

829
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:14,320
supports the minor revisions contained
therein.

830
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:20,080
And resolved that the renewed agreement
and the associated amendments be

831
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:28,760
received and approved. Moved by
Councillor Powell, seconded by

832
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:28,760
Councillor Bobick. Discussion?

833
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:36,640
Any comments there on C 02 2020
>> I have no comments at all on that truth

834
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:41,080
with the fresh manager and no concerns
for any changes and no disputes between

835
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:47,000
us and the previous years.
>> All in favor?

836
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:52,120
Opposed? Let's carry.
8.5 The result that Darren Harvey,

837

Mr. Powell.
Discussion?

853
01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:26,840
Mr. Dwayne White
I

854
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:31,320
» understand um
there might be feeling like

855
01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:37,120
we don't
Like I understand that there's

856
01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:37,120
circumstances that arise, but

857
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:42,680
I just think that's something that I
think is important for council to

858
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:46,240
participate with. I don't think that one
person should have that

859
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:50,760
that
authority.

860
01:01:53,240 --> 01:02:01,080
» Um CL CAO two minute comments on it.
>> Uh just that um

861
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:04,760
» referring to the EOC? Is that what it is
or is that just

862
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:08,360
Are we talking like anytime? Like I
guess that's just basically when we're

863
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:11,000
in emergency
EOC situation.

864
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:15,080
» Do we have the emergency operations
center open? That's basically tasked

865
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:19,120
with making operational decisions.
Uh as council were going to mention,

866
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:22,560
counselor Dwayne Warken mentioned that
the last council

867
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:26,160
meeting said
they're the experts who can make the

868
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:29,920
decision, something like that. So I
Uh that's why I put this resolution

869
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:33,480
forward because there are situations
where we don't have time

870
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:37,440
to uh have a special meeting with
council to get together and convince you

871
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:40,680
folks of what
needs to be done from our perspective.

872
01:02:39,743 --> 01:02:44,200
» [clears throat]
>> But that's why the resolution is here

873
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:46,680
for us all to discuss and consider for
the plan.

874
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:49,920
» Um any
>> And and just I just want to add one more

875
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:55,360
thing too. This doesn't take away
council's ability to do that. It's just

876
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:58,160
adds to that ability. Council always has
the ability to make the evacuation

877
01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:02,400
order, but there are going to be
circumstances where

878
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:07,400
exigent circumstances where it's not
practical to uh to get council together.

879
01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:12,000
So in those situations um
we are recommending the authority be

880
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:15,840
delegated accordingly to your
operational team.

881
01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:21,680
» Okay. Go ahead.
>> And I don't feel that um 2026 emergency

882
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:25,480
plan should be completely finalized
until we receive the full debriefing and

883
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:29,600
identify whether there's any further
gaps or recommendations that would need

884
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:35,360
to be added to that plan.
Um because we haven't even had that yet.

885
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:39,480
And although I understand that council
would still have the opportunity to make

886
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:45,120
that decision, I think that final
decision

887
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:49,440
if if if possible to retain a quorum
I would hope we would never be in a

888
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:53,800
in a situation where we would not have
time to have a conversation, be it on

889
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:57,880
the phone. There could be parameters put
in place to make it

890
01:03:55,720 --> 01:04:02,680
not everybody has to be in the office
sitting here to make the decision, but I

891
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:07,400
feel that as representatives of council
that that is important.

892
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:11,360
And that's where we always and it's been
said, you know, that we are the

893
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:16,080
governance, that we take the information
from the people that have the

894
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:20,480
information to formulate a decision that
best supports the town.

895
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:25,360
So, I wouldn't feel comfortable handing
that to one individual, whether a CAO or

896
01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:29,520
the acting emergency personnel or
whoever is the commander of that

897
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,520
situation.

898
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:35,200
» Okay.
Any other discussion? Councillor Proud?

899
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:40,280
» I
I do have Yeah, I I am in agreement with

900
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:45,120
that because I just I feel that
we need to know. Like we need to

901
01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:49,040
And I know that it was it was difficult
to get us together.

902
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:52,520
But I I guess I guess it's I think I
want to review it a little bit more, a

903
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:56,640
little bit more look into like what
exactly like you're

904
01:04:54,680 --> 01:05:00,200
basically
saying that

905
01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:04,320
you know, you're you're saying
you're able to

906
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:06,920
do this without us knowing, basically?
Is that what you're

907
01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:14,080
» So, I'm hearing council that also part
two members of council I've been here

908
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:18,080
for everybody, but
if you feel that this needs to be

909
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:21,720
amended or needs to be uh
What's the word I'm looking for?

910
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:23,760
Uh tabled, then maybe that's something
that you can take

911
01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:27,960
to a
council meeting for further discussion

912
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:32,040
cuz I think there is also some
misunderstanding I think also at the

913
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:35,400
same time, so I think that needs to be
uh clarified. So, if council doesn't

914
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:39,560
feel that they have all the information
right now, then the act of uh or the

915
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:42,400
request to have it tabled would be
appropriate.

916
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:45,000
» Yeah, I don't have a second
here.

917
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:48,520
» Okay. So, council powers asking to be
tabled until when?

918
01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:51,280
» Uh
what's the next council meeting?

919
01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:53,480
» Yeah.
>> Okay.

920
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:59,160
Uh
7:00

921
01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:01,440
7:00.
What's the next one?

922
01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:05,320
» The 11th 11th.
>> Okay. So, the next council

923
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:08,720
uh for the 11th.
Uh do I have a second there to have it

924
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:13,680
tabled?
Council Ainslie White. All in favor of

925
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:13,680
having it tabled?

926
01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:18,960
It's tabled.
Okay, and so

927
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:23,880
» Excuse me.
Who is the seconder?

928
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:26,520
» Uh Council Ainslie White.
>> Thank you.

01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:48,840
» I'll be going back.
Two.

948
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:51,560
» I think it may be a parent thing.
Uh I had

949
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:56,320
Mr. Harvey up there then he disappeared
and now he's back again, so I'll let him

950
01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:56,320
go.

951
01:07:56,480 --> 01:08:04,440
» Uh yeah, so the three flooding events
are the Tamarack in June, the Tamarack

952
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:07,440
right at the end of June, and then the
Swan River.

953
01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:13,200
So, the second and third one happened
within a day of each other.

954
01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:17,960
» That's right. That makes sense.
Okay, see uh see how you get a question.

955
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:22,359
» Yeah, I was just going to state
exactly that.

956
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:25,720
» Any other discussion?
Councilwoman White.

957
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:28,759
» I don't know if this is it's to do with
this, but um

958
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:32,759
um
we will need to spread some awareness on

959
01:08:30,480 --> 01:08:37,759
the permitting
mandate and what needs a permit and what

960
01:08:35,759 --> 01:08:40,880
folks how they apply for the permit and
how we support that.

961
01:08:39,359 --> 01:08:45,640
And to let them know that there's not a
cost cost associated, but that that

962
01:08:42,759 --> 01:08:50,720
action needs to take place to avoid
further um

963
01:08:47,359 --> 01:08:50,720
delegations like we have this time.

964
01:08:51,359 --> 01:08:54,839
» Yeah,
I you know, I think that the

965
01:08:53,359 --> 01:08:58,920
administration will work on how they
want to promote that or or advertise

966
01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:02,440
that. I think that they've done a really
good job of bringing the

967
01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:04,240
flood as well as all of the updates and
all that, but

968
01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:07,279
um
most people would know that they need to

969
01:09:05,759 --> 01:09:11,520
take permits out when they're doing
their basements or building something.

970
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:14,880
Maybe sometimes they think that they're
replacing something that they don't need

971
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:19,240
one, but most times when you're
building, you need to have a permit. So,

972
01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:22,160
anyway, I would trust that the
administration is going to be working on

973
01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:26,240
some kind of an
uh promotion

974
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:30,600
educational
advertising that would help people to

975
01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:34,520
understand what this really means. Is
that fair?

976
01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:37,759
» It's very fair, your worship.
>> Any further discussion?

977
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:40,720

about water utility rates and water
agreement. Approve and authorize

982
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:06,920

the Bill Gates.

983
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:09,160

Councilor Dwayne White.

988
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:29,560
» I think it's appropriate to let all
members of the municipality of Long

989
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:34,000
Valley West
get that letter also.

990
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:38,360
Just in case someone
needed it and it disappeared, you could

991
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:42,200
send it to their email address.
I'd like to see I'd like to like to see

992

it go to
all members of council.

993
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,360
» Go ahead.
>> It's just a matter of procedure.

994
01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:53,360
Everything that goes to the mayor and
council goes to the mayor, and the

995
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:58,520
administration has it received by
council. I can't tell the RM how to

996
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:02,680
administer things, but it would go back
to the person who

997
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:05,080
authored the letter which in this case
is the

1001
01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:24,440
Excuse me, [clears throat] but whereas
on December 1st, 2025, the Swan Valley

1002
01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:28,480
Health Facilities Foundation passed a
resolution to transfer all medical

1003
01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:32,600
recruitment funds to the Town of Swan
River in trust with the Medical

1004
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:37,000
Recruitment Committee. And whereas the
Town of Swan River Council resolved at

1005
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:40,600
its meeting held December the 16th,
2025,

1006
01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:45,360
that the Chief Financial Officer of the
Town of Swan River is hereby authorized

1007
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:49,560
to establish the necessary trust account
to facilitate the transfer of medical

1008
01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:53,440

whereas the trust account was set up but

1009
01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:58,120
no medical recruitment funds were
transferred to it.

1010
01:11:55,480 --> 01:12:02,360

set up by the Town of Swan River in

1011
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:06,600
trust with the Medical Recruitment
Committee funds

Councillor Wayne White, seconded by
Councillor Anderson White. Discussion?

1014
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:25,520
Primarily the reason for this is because
the Medical Recruitment

1015
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:29,160
operation committee does have their own
bank account. All they have to do is

1016
01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:33,280
just change the signing officers and
they already have the account. So, this

1017
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:37,000
is what's actually in the in the in the
mix right now. This is what's been

01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:42,560
there, that would certainly reduce the
the opportunity for some of the issues

1105
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:42,560
we face.

1106
01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:50,200
» Any other discussion?
All in favor.

1107
01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:53,560
Did you have something?
>> No.

1108
01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:57,560
» Okay. All in favor.
Opposed.

1109
01:19:54,880 --> 01:19:57,560
It's carried.

1110
01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:07,280
11 to be it resolved that bylaw number
six, 2026, being a bylaw of the town of

1111
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:11,000
Saunder, Saunder, to control traffic and
parking of vehicles in Grand Bay for the

1112
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:16,720
second time.
Moved by

1113
01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:21,000
Councilman Wayne White, seconded by
Councilman Rodden.

1114
01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:21,000
Discussion.

1115
01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:29,840
Councilman Ainsley White.
>> Have we had car accidents because of

1116
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:29,840
U-turns?

1117
01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:36,575
» I ain't got a report on that from the
police.

1118
01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:38,600
Anybody know that answer for
>> [cough]

1119
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:44,280
» No idea.
>> I was just curious why

1120
01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:48,560
we have no person shall make a U-turn at
any location between street

1121
01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:53,800
intersections specifically. I just
wondered what was driving that.

1122
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:57,120
» I can tell you it's a provincial law.
So, whoever made the bylaw back then

1123
01:20:55,840 --> 01:21:01,360
probably said, "Well, we may as well put
in two more people. You can't do U-turns

1124
01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:04,720
between intersections anyway.
That has a lot of traffic in it." So,

1125
01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:08,560
when we were making bylaw, we just
wanted to repeat it.

1126
01:21:06,480 --> 01:21:14,520
» Makes sense.
>> Any other further discussion?

1127
01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:18,800
All in favor?
Opposed?

1128
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:18,800
It's carried.

1129
01:21:20,320 --> 01:21:27,360
11-3, being as all the bylaw number 9,
2026, being a bylaw of the town of Swan

Councilor Powell, seconded by Councilor
Powell.

1133
01:21:37,720 --> 01:21:40,520
Discussion?

1134
01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:44,720
All in favor?

1135
01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:49,200
Opposed?
It's carried.

1136
01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:55,640
It's now in order of the motion. We'll
do members remarks motion.

1137
01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:58,640
I'll start with
uh Deputy Mayor Moriaux.

1138
01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:05,600
» Uh yes,
uh I just want to express my

1139
01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:08,840
appreciation to
members of council and administration

1140
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:14,320
and
basically everybody in the Swan Valley

1141
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:18,880
that that came together and helped out
each other and did what was required to

1142
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:22,160
do and is still doing what's required to
do to

1143
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:27,120
survive and mitigate the the flood
response that we've had

1144
01:22:25,280 --> 01:22:31,440
that we've never seen
I guess in the valley ever, from what

1145
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:36,160
people are saying.
I also want to

1146
01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:39,880
I guess mention that as we tweak our
tweak emergency plan, this is one of the

1147
01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:43,560
first
times that an EOC was opened up within

1148
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:48,640
the town of Slave Lake, and that wasn't
really managed and operated by council

1149
01:22:46,440 --> 01:22:52,760
as a whole as we had agreed to
previously that

1150
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:58,040
councilors are there to liaise on with
different departments, but not actually

1151
01:22:54,440 --> 01:23:01,840
be doers of actually uh
parts of the EOC unless it's just a

1152
01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:05,880
specific role, but not as council as a
whole. So, while there's still probably

1153
01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:09,080
some tweaking to do on that, it was
great to see that

1154
01:23:07,480 --> 01:23:13,080
for the first time that it was put in
action that it actually worked as well

1155
01:23:10,520 --> 01:23:15,240
as it did.
>> Okay, thank you.

1156
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:18,320
Uh
councilor

1157
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:22,440
Thank you, your worship. Um
just a reminder again, I'll just speak

1158
01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:25,680
on a bit on water testing and water
shed. Anybody who's had any overland

1159
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:28,480
flooding,
there is uh

1160
01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:32,000
people on the south side of Slave Lake
that have their own wells, and the

1161
01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:34,320
testing is free for now. See if they can
get

1162
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:37,600
get them tested.
So, also just

1163
01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:41,840
uh
in light of the flooding,

1164
01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:47,320
uh it's
always grateful for LP being helpful

1165
01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:49,800
whenever there's a a disaster. So, this
is twice now that they've been involved

1166
01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:52,960
that they
uh

1167
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:56,960
lend us a great big pump for the lift
station. I would suggest that maybe we

1168
01:23:55,040 --> 01:24:01,880
look into
making an application so we can just

1169
01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:06,280
plug in to what we have there instead of
stripping the wires going into

1170
01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:09,400
our panels there and doing that a lot of
work. So, it seems to be that they have

1171
01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:12,560
three of these panels, and it's
something that they're going to have all

1172
01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:16,160
the time. I'm sure that they will let us
use it. Save a lot of electricity.

1173
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:20,080
Uh
look into maybe what the cost is and

1174
01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:23,680
just so we can take the pump out, plug
the thing in, and away we go.

1175
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:28,040
Just to
go back to the staff and you know what?

1176
01:24:26,440 --> 01:24:30,040
We have to congratulate our staff on
what they've done.

1177
01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:34,480
I think you see
compliments all the way down.

1178
01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:38,160
Uh not only are they doing great with
the flood, you have to remember they're

1179
01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:41,480
doing their day-to-day operations at the
same time.

1180
01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:46,760
So, everything above what their
day-to-day operations are is being done

1181
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:49,320
also. So, kudos to them.
And that goes for administration too and

1182
01:24:48,440 --> 01:24:54,600
all the
departments. So, again, good reports

1183
01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:54,600
everything.

1184
01:24:54,680 --> 01:25:01,240
I have a lot of compliments.
I also like to compliment our mayor.

1185
01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:05,120
He's done a great job. He
listens and he's been out there every

1186
01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:08,800
day and a leader.
Home never quits raining so I mean that

1187
01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:12,720
is
people you touch base with is really

1188
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:16,680
helpful helping
the people to understand that

1189
01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:20,400
the connections that you have made have
made things happen.

1190
01:25:19,440 --> 01:25:22,720
I mean
personally, thank you.

1191
01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:25,400
Thank you.
>> That's it.

1192
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:29,480
Okay.
>> Councilor 21

1193
01:25:27,480 --> 01:25:35,200
Oh, it's sports.
Exactly what uh Councilor Royal said and

1194
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:39,560
exactly what Councilor Bob said is 15
and team function based on their

1195
01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:43,200
leadership which you did a great job of.
Uh job staff like

1196
01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:47,120
2015.
It's American people who would call the

1197
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:50,400
fire department the ambulance.
I needed to do what I just did because

1198
01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:53,680
there's so many more.
And and the lay people who went over to

1199
01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:56,920
the neighbors house and knocked on the
door kind of shoveled some

1200
01:25:55,560 --> 01:26:00,320
places for you so
what a wonderful community we have.

1201
01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:03,720
Valley community where we all work
together. So, good news is we

1202
01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:08,640
we work together and we enjoy that
wonderful place we have to live in and

1203
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:13,080
the aftermath of the flood apparently.
But another uh secondary issue is that

1204
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:16,680
I I just uh so much respect for his team
and his typing skills.

1205
01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:21,000
I I difficulty believing that any man
can type all this stuff so quick and

1206
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:24,960
write it down. I was sitting with two
high-end businesses because hundreds,

1207
01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:29,280
maybe thousands of added revenue would
come.

1208
01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:34,120
He uses Otter AI. It records everything
that says Dwayne says, it says Don says,

1209
01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:37,960
it says it's all recorded and then they
can sit and start thinking about it as

1210
01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:43,240
opposed to recording and and it will
send out a printout key concepts

1211
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:46,400
discussed, issues to be addressed.
And it's relatively and I don't know

1212
01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:51,800
what the cost is, but apparently it's
relatively inexpensive. But these guys

1213
01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:57,760
running big multinational multi-Canadian
corporations, multi-million-dollar

1214
01:26:53,840 --> 01:27:00,560
businesses. They run on Otter AI.
So I would encourage our CEO to have a

1215
01:26:59,440 --> 01:27:03,600
look at it and
free up a few times for him to talk to

1216
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:07,640
some of the techy guys.
It's used often in our little town hall

1217
01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:11,160
meetings.
Thank you for that.

1218
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:16,440
» Okay, thank you.
Uh Councillor Ainsworth,

1219
01:27:13,640 --> 01:27:21,920
» There's actually an AI built into Teams.
There's a facilitator that will do

1220
01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:26,960
exactly what you just described and
bank notes and tasks and and all those

1221
01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:31,440
things. So pretty cool.
Um

1222
01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:35,160
I would like to formally request that we
have something

1223
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:39,080
formal that we're providing residents
with the building permit thing. I feel

1224
01:27:37,840 --> 01:27:44,280
pretty strongly that that's going to be
completely overlooked and as a flood

1225
01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:50,080
affected person,
what an insult to injury

1226
01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:52,240
if I were to not know that.
Um

1227
01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:55,440
» I think that administration said they
agree with that.

1228
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:57,480
» I agree. I'm going to be sending
something out there.

1229
01:27:56,200 --> 01:28:01,640
» Oh great. I just wanted to put it in the
notes and have it formal. Yeah, so that

1230
01:27:59,880 --> 01:28:06,880
it was on the record.
Um I like the free water testing. When

1231
01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:10,480
did you say that winter?
Or do we know yet? Maybe not.

1232
01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:14,680
» I think I said yesterday another month.
>> Oh, okay. That's a long time still.

1233
01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:17,760
» Yeah, but it only happens every Tuesday.
>> Yes, and they're by noon, right?

1234
01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:20,720
» Yes.
>> They had backed it up one day, but I

1235
01:28:19,200 --> 01:28:24,640
think that was just circumstantial. It
had to be 11:30. That was only one day.

1236
01:28:23,200 --> 01:28:28,840
Yeah, okay.
Um

1237
01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:32,560
can we clarify
just quickly what's happening at our

1238
01:28:30,360 --> 01:28:37,160
next council meeting? So, we're having
the full debrief

1239
01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:43,160
of the emergency
and all of our regular

1240
01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:46,160
topics that we would normally review and
what would be on the agenda. Like,

1241
01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:49,440
that's all happening at our next
meeting?

1242
01:28:47,440 --> 01:28:54,200
» In our next council meeting.
You have most of that some of that

1243
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:58,480
agenda already completed at your home.
>> Yeah, how

1244
01:28:55,760 --> 01:29:01,840
works is council reaches out to me
up to the Friday before and tells me

1245
01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:05,360
what they want to add it on the agenda.
Otherwise, I build the agenda and the

1246
01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:09,360
major part of the agenda will be
the flood discussion that we had the

1247
01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:14,200
last after the last flood.
>> And we don't tape that meeting.

1248
01:29:12,280 --> 01:29:18,680
Yeah, so it would be cool if we had the
flood discussion

1249
01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:23,480
in during a regular meeting with our I
guess I assumed that's what was going to

1250
01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:23,480
happen initially. I was

1251
01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:29,240
I I guess that's what I thought was
going to happen initially. I think that

1252
01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:35,440
that would be great to hear from
leadership on the record of and hear the

1253
01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:35,440
debrief and have the discussion and

1254
01:29:36,440 --> 01:29:44,800
Um
and

1255
01:29:41,160 --> 01:29:49,400
uh as far as activities that we had to
reschedule for Canada Day, I guess this

1256
01:29:47,360 --> 01:29:54,160
is to Director Golden Grove.
Not that this would even be on your

1257
01:29:51,120 --> 01:29:58,040
radar yet, but I'm just wondering like
surely there must have been some talk at

1258
01:29:55,840 --> 01:30:04,200
the water cooler and is it like we're
thinking like

1259
01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:08,680
uh October thing or how because like
there's a lot that has to be done before

1260
01:30:05,880 --> 01:30:13,840
we can think about rescheduling that.
Um director Michael Furey or yeah, any

1261
01:30:11,960 --> 01:30:18,320
of those who were in the discussion that
I had with the Ag Society,

1262
01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:22,680
but to answer that question, there is a
group right now formally trying to plan

1263
01:30:20,480 --> 01:30:25,200
something and work with the town.
Um

1264
01:30:23,440 --> 01:30:28,960
they have not set a date for a planning
date on that yet. And so, once that

1265
01:30:27,320 --> 01:30:33,080
happens, I can give you more information
on what that is, but they are looking at

1266
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:36,720
a date that they can work together. I
know the firework kind of thing has to

1267
01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:38,880
be done I think like September 7th.
>> Yeah.

1268
01:30:37,080 --> 01:30:43,600
» And all that, we know we're aware of
that, but as far as that planning date,

1269
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:47,680
they have not nailed it down yet, but
they are kind of tentatively throwing

1270
01:30:45,160 --> 01:30:52,760
some some dates around again at the end
of August. And so, then once they have

1271
01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:57,960
that planning meeting, which is supposed
to be I think this at the beginning of

1272
01:30:55,040 --> 01:31:01,120
next week, um then we'll have more
information on that, but there is there

1273
01:30:59,920 --> 01:31:05,400
is some
thinking and planning of what we can do

1274
01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:08,640
with the Ag Society and maybe with some
of the stuff, you know, with the best

1275
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:13,240
such as the fireworks on a on a date
where everybody can have something to to

1276
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:16,720
grab onto.
>> And just on that note, I

1277
01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:19,960
understandably they were given like a
period of time, here's the grant money,

1278
01:31:18,240 --> 01:31:21,560
you have to use it by then. Would they
do that?

1279
01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:24,920
» They're
>> I would think maybe now that I'm saying

1280
01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:28,320
it not surely, but there could be a
variance requested for because of the

1281
01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:31,800
flood and stuff.
>> This is that.

1282
01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:33,880
» Oh. Uh-huh. Okay.
Okay, cool. That's it for me.

1283
01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:36,120
» Okay.
>> Thank you.

1284
01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:38,880
» I think
I think this should be a report.

1285
01:31:37,960 --> 01:31:41,480
» It is.
>> Okay.

1286
01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:45,640
» Yes, that.
>> Okay, so concert hall.

1287
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:49,480
» Um
I think basically reiterate reiterate

1288
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:53,680
what everybody else has said here and
you know, give thank you to everybody.

1289
01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:56,600
We've gone through some, you know, some
really

1290
01:31:54,920 --> 01:32:01,040
some times that we weren't expecting and
um I think you know,

1291
01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:04,760
I think we all learned from
we all learned from everything that went

1292
01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:07,280
on, um
I mean, you can only grow

1293
01:32:06,440 --> 01:32:12,240
um
to make sure if this were to happen

1294
01:32:09,880 --> 01:32:17,200
another time that we would have been,
you know, ready for it. But, um

1295
01:32:14,720 --> 01:32:21,000
like I said, everybody Everybody
did did their job and everybody stepped

1296
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:26,240
up to the plate in so many ways. I mean,
there's so many people that, you know,

1297
01:32:22,560 --> 01:32:29,800
stepped in. So, yeah. Um just thank you
to Jack

1298
01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:33,600
and to thank you everybody for that. Uh
I know I appreciate it which, you know,

1299
01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:37,280
I think everybody Everybody in town
appreciated um

1300
01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:42,760
the welcoming and, you know, just just
uh the support. So.

1301
01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:48,240
Yeah. Um other than that, there is a
barbecue at um Scales Drug Store

1302
01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:51,280
tomorrow tomorrow afternoon, right?
>> Thursday.

1303
01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:51,280
» Thursday.

1304
01:32:51,520 --> 01:32:57,000
Thursday. They're They're having a
barbecue at Scales and um I I would

1305
01:32:55,400 --> 01:33:00,200
encourage everybody to attend. I think
that's

1306
01:32:57,840 --> 01:33:04,400
And I I do believe they are planning to
have another barbecue for

1307
01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:08,880
There is a plan for another
barbecue for blood bank victims and

1308
01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:11,880
that's at the end of the month.
But, um

1309
01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:14,160
that's coming up.
Um

1310
01:33:12,840 --> 01:33:17,800
I would just also like to send, you
know, um as as she was a counselor of

1311
01:33:16,360 --> 01:33:23,080
the town of Swan River, I send my
condolences out to Tracy Bouchard's

1312
01:33:20,480 --> 01:33:25,880
family as um you know, her her
her

1313
01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:29,280
her mom has passed away. So, I just like
to say a great great thank you.

1314
01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:32,440
Thank you.

1315
01:33:33,200 --> 01:33:39,240
So, obviously, you know, like we
community has seen like and not not only

1316
01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:43,000
the Swan River, but the whole valley has
seen

1317
01:33:40,360 --> 01:33:47,440
uh some devastating losses here in in
the last month and it's just been

1318
01:33:44,600 --> 01:33:53,680
heartbreaking, but the Parkland area and
our in our briefing that we had with um

1319
01:33:50,360 --> 01:33:59,360
the Parkland municipalities yesterday,
there is over 1,000

1320
01:33:56,600 --> 01:34:03,200
events that will be more than 1,000. I'm
guessing it might be even closer to

1321
01:34:00,640 --> 01:34:07,600
1,500 or maybe 2,000 events that are
going to be documented uh throughout the

1322
01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:13,080
whole Parkland region
uh towards DFA and damages to those

1323
01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:16,800
municipalities. So, it's it's it's quite
uh alarming. And so, the municipalities

1324
01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:21,680
got together and
uh over the last, you know, few weeks to

1325
01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:25,280
talk about how we as a as a district,
the Parkland district, can work together

1326
01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:31,200
on
advocating for what we need in this

1327
01:34:28,320 --> 01:34:35,720
region and making sure that we have uh
what it takes. But, let's say if it's

1328
01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:40,280
DFA claims or if it's, you know,
anything to help while residents, of

1329
01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:44,120
course, do DFA, but also with our
municipalities to get the money that

1330
01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:49,360
they need. If you have a municipality
that has, say, $3 million

1331
01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:53,440
in in damages, and they have to go and
say they may have an up up-front money

1332
01:34:51,880 --> 01:34:58,080
from the province of, say, 1/2 million
or 1 million, where does where does the

1333
01:34:55,480 --> 01:35:02,480
$2 million come from? So, these
municipalities are quite concerned about

1334
01:34:59,840 --> 01:35:05,120
this right now. And so, this is the goal
of this here um

1335
01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:08,760
uh
with this

1336
01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:13,160
group or whatever getting together on
this flood situation.

1337
01:35:11,120 --> 01:35:16,760
We talked about um
advocating the province. The province

1338
01:35:14,760 --> 01:35:23,840
really needs the to
um start on this um flood review for

1339
01:35:21,200 --> 01:35:28,200
2026. And they need to lead that. They
can't leave that leave that to the

1340
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:34,160
municipalities. I think it needs to be a
regional Parkland flood 2026 review. And

1341
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:38,520
something that I sent that to the
premier yesterday on that. And I'm

1342
01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:42,200
certainly hoping that we can see some
traction on that. I've advocated several

1343
01:35:40,880 --> 01:35:46,120
different times to different ministers
about, you know, up-front money to

1344
01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:51,400
municipalities and and also to
residents. You know, I was told by a

1345
01:35:48,440 --> 01:35:55,480
read from down south in 1997, the
municipalities or uh residents of the

1346
01:35:53,200 --> 01:36:00,400
municipalities down there in '97
received upfront $5,000.

1347
01:35:58,840 --> 01:36:04,080
And uh
and I was kind of taken back by that.

1348
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:08,080
And I went, "Wow, you know, so I kind of
spoke to the the minister yesterday and

1349
01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:12,000
said, you know, like you know, we
we've done it once before. And there's a

1350
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:14,760
lot of people that need need the money,
you know, sure they might have some you

1351
01:36:13,440 --> 01:36:18,480
know, they may have
insurance that might come, but some

1352
01:36:16,280 --> 01:36:20,800
won't have that and they need to put a
new cattle in their house, they might

1353
01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:25,240
need a new
sock or a new hot water tank or they

1354
01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:29,960
might need, you know, a new furnace and
certainly $500 is a nice touch, but

1355
01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:33,760
definitely is it's not going to be
enough and this is going to be this is

1356
01:36:31,760 --> 01:36:37,400
going to be really tough. So, these are
a lot of things that the the

1357
01:36:35,160 --> 01:36:41,920
municipalities were talking about
yesterday including the mention of the

1358
01:36:39,440 --> 01:36:47,720
the Dauphin hospital. And in my
conversation with CEO Slate, I said that

1359
01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:53,520
our hospital has two great operating
operating rooms and we have OR recovery

1360
01:36:51,480 --> 01:36:57,360
rooms and all that that we can handle,
which we have already been doing some

1361
01:36:55,040 --> 01:37:00,600
procedures and more surgeries. Those
surgeons those doctors need to have a

1362
01:36:58,840 --> 01:37:05,280
place to conduct their business and
they're going to need something soon.

1363
01:37:02,560 --> 01:37:09,440
So, this is so an avenue where we can
actually provide some of those services

1364
01:37:07,440 --> 01:37:14,640
now that we have a CT scanner in Swan
River. There's a lot of services that we

1365
01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:19,600
can provide in the town of Swan River
because of our facility. And and CEO

1366
01:37:17,800 --> 01:37:23,560
Slate had, you know, reaffirmed and said
that absolutely we have probably an

1367
01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:28,080
amazing
facility that we can we can do that, but

1368
01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:34,720
there obviously steps the province has
to take um with uh

1369
01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:38,440
uh getting those things in place.
Uh I don't really We've talked a lot

1370
01:37:37,040 --> 01:37:42,720
about the flood stuff, you know, and I
you know,

1371
01:37:39,640 --> 01:37:47,080
the the volunteers and and and and
just amazing to see, you know, all the

1372
01:37:44,840 --> 01:37:51,520
people that have come together and
we'll talk about this for a long time

1373
01:37:49,120 --> 01:37:54,680
and I'm sure that in this
you know this day is I don't want to

1374
01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:58,800
call it a celebration but this day of us
getting together

1375
01:37:56,520 --> 01:38:05,960
will be able to express more gratitude
towards a lot of the people that really

1376
01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:09,440
came and stepped up to plate. Um I thank
uh

1377
01:38:07,040 --> 01:38:16,320
uh Counselor Malik for his words
earlier. But you know what? I don't do

1378
01:38:12,600 --> 01:38:21,360
all that just because or you know
I have the time or what I I I I have the

1379
01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:26,760
support of council and and a lot of you
have phoned me and and gave me your

1380
01:38:24,680 --> 01:38:31,120
uh support. Administration, I've had
other mayors and reeves

1381
01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:36,160
uh call me and and do exactly the same
thing. So it just makes it a lot easier

1382
01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:40,560
to do your job when you have people that
are reaching out and and uh giving the

1383
01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:45,080
the most assistance that they possibly
can. You know, including several

1384
01:38:42,960 --> 01:38:50,400
ministers I had the opportunity to to
talk to over the last month and uh and I

1385
01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:55,880
continue to uh to talk to them on on
many things I'd like to advocate for.

1386
01:38:53,480 --> 01:38:58,520
I think today I was speaking to I don't
want to go too long but I do want to

1387
01:38:57,200 --> 01:39:03,440
make sure we give thanks to our
administration especially with them

1388
01:39:00,840 --> 01:39:07,160
taking on their jobs and their roles
everyday roles of running our

1389
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:11,600
municipality but also to going and
running an EOC on top of all that and

1390
01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:15,600
the and the stress that came with it and
the time that they had to spend

1391
01:39:14,040 --> 01:39:20,160
uh outside from their families and their
jobs to to get the job done. I had some

1392
01:39:18,480 --> 01:39:26,040
people tell me today or actually the
last little while that the updates that

1393
01:39:23,200 --> 01:39:31,080
um our administration and mainly
Director Gordon Broom who had done a

1394
01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:33,680
great job in providing those, they said,
you know, they really liked the fact

1395
01:39:32,480 --> 01:39:38,160
that you numbered them and I know that
we learned that a long time ago and so I

1396
01:39:36,400 --> 01:39:43,520
I like that we continued on with that
and and uh you did a a great job and and

1397
01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:47,800
the rest of the team too.
As well as you know we don't have

1398
01:39:45,760 --> 01:39:52,000
Mr. Dennis here but
there's a lot of stuff that he really

1399
01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:56,400
kind of got his feet wet got his feet
so to speak and

1400
01:39:54,440 --> 01:40:01,320
maybe it's a bad choice of words but but
you know what he he really did step up

1401
01:39:59,080 --> 01:40:05,600
and and was under a lot of pressure for
a long time there so

1402
01:40:03,280 --> 01:40:10,560
it's nice to see that team Rubicon come
to the community and and taking on some

1403
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:15,640
of those those roles in the emergency
center for us as well as Red Cross and

1404
01:40:13,800 --> 01:40:19,880
and all that but there's a lot of other
people that we've been talking to in the

1405
01:40:17,360 --> 01:40:23,760
last month and and actually in the last
week on supports that we can get from

1406
01:40:22,480 --> 01:40:29,280
people and
I just I thank them and and we've opened

1407
01:40:27,120 --> 01:40:32,760
up a lot of doors for a lot of support
not only for administration but also for

1408
01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:36,720
our community
as well. So we'll hear a lot more about

1409
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:41,320
that in the days and weeks ahead to
come.

1410
01:40:38,440 --> 01:40:43,840
Now I will give it to Director Gordon
Brom.

1411
01:40:42,320 --> 01:40:47,560
» Usually I save myself for the last but
I'm sorry.

1412
01:40:46,440 --> 01:40:49,760
» I can't believe you're going to forget
about us. That's all right.

1413
01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:54,560
» No, never.
>> Darn.

1414
01:40:51,520 --> 01:40:58,880
Um no, I I think you know like kind of
on the the theme of everyone here I I

1415
01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:03,040
said it many times in in my flood
reports to council

1416
01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:06,920
um but I think I owe a a huge public
thank you to to my staff for their work

1417
01:41:06,360 --> 01:41:10,480
um
in the flood event

1418
01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:15,880
and under the task of
logistics and to the incredible

1419
01:41:13,320 --> 01:41:20,120
community volunteers and dinner who
helped us.

1420
01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:24,760
Um I need to you know specifically
acknowledge acting recreation manager

1421
01:41:22,200 --> 01:41:29,960
Morgan Buck who took complete charge of
the support center with the help of

1422
01:41:27,760 --> 01:41:35,400
operations supervisor Keegan Harness as
well as um just community member Nikki

1423
01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:41,280

01:41:38,800 --> 01:41:45,800

our community. And then also to

1425
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:51,875
Albert Short Term Friendship Center
executive director was Lee Sangluk,

1426
01:41:48,840 --> 01:41:55,640
whose guidance and expertise absolutely
[clears throat] invaluable. She went

1427
01:41:53,480 --> 01:42:01,520
through it all in Minnesota, so
she she was an incredible support.

1428
01:41:58,600 --> 01:42:07,320
So, I am very proud of how we were able
to come together and and serve our

1429
01:42:03,720 --> 01:42:10,920
community in such a great time of need.
Um also just a

1430
01:42:08,920 --> 01:42:16,040
thank you to the Swan Valley
Fire Department who came to our rescue

1431
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:20,520
once again in the recreation department
this afternoon.

1432
01:42:17,520 --> 01:42:24,520
Um hopefully that's the last fire we
experience this year.

1433
01:42:22,480 --> 01:42:29,120
Um on that.
And on a happier note, just a

1434
01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:34,240
congratulations to the Swan Titans
Cricket Club who have completed their

1435
01:42:32,200 --> 01:42:38,560
immediate work that they wanted to do on
prepping their their cricket grounds,

1436
01:42:36,320 --> 01:42:42,480
their new cricket grounds that have been
totally signed off on. And so, they can

1437
01:42:40,600 --> 01:42:46,240
now enjoy that for the remainder of the
summer and they have been, so that's

1438
01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:52,280
wonderful.
>> Okay, thank you.

1439
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:52,280
Uh CFO Ganeda.

1440
01:42:57,400 --> 01:43:06,360
» So, I do have an email
March 31st from one of the town councils

1441
01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:12,440
representative on the RISE board asking
us but chair of RISE and sent me

1442
01:43:09,120 --> 01:43:18,080
financials lately and I said no.
And that's all I've ever heard

1443
01:43:14,560 --> 01:43:23,240
about anything coming from RISE.
So, I'm not sure where things stand with

1444
01:43:20,840 --> 01:43:27,640
that. And with the planning district,
I've heard nothing. Like I don't know if

1445
01:43:25,280 --> 01:43:33,960
they're meeting, if they're active. They
haven't even provided a budget yet for

1446
01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:37,240
2026. Or not that not that's come my way
anyway.

1447
01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:42,560
So, I'm not sure
what those two organizations

1448
01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:47,240
uh are doing as far as
getting their financial reports done.

1449
01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:53,560
» Okay.
Well, we'll just keep nudging, I guess.

1450
01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:58,291
Um yeah, sorry.
>> Well, this is This is my nudge.

1451
01:43:55,440 --> 01:44:01,040
» Yeah, well, I mean, nudging.
>> [laughter]

1452
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:03,720
» Those of you that sit on those boards,
please

1453
01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:05,040
» I uh
I hear

1454
01:44:04,160 --> 01:44:10,560
» take action.
>> I hear you loud and clear on on RISE,

1455
01:44:07,560 --> 01:44:15,080
and that is uh
we there was a meeting that I thought

1456
01:44:12,840 --> 01:44:19,000
was canceled on July the 6th, and it has
not been rescheduled yet. So,

1457
01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:22,960
uh we're waiting on that one there yet.
So, uh that's what I was told that they

1458
01:44:21,720 --> 01:44:27,800
had not been approved yet because of
that uh meeting, but I actually thought

1459
01:44:25,240 --> 01:44:30,960
that meeting was canceled. So, anyway,
um

1460
01:44:28,560 --> 01:44:36,200
I'll do that on my side, but uh that
meeting has not been approved yet for uh

1461
01:44:33,440 --> 01:44:39,040
like rescheduled.
Mr. Harvey.

1462
01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:49,920
» Uh yes, I'd like to thank Jordan Brooks,
uh who covered for me

1463
01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:54,880
uh the first 2 days of the flood while I
was dealing with flooding at our house.

1464
01:44:53,160 --> 01:45:00,320
And then
uh the public works staff for all the

1465
01:44:57,640 --> 01:45:03,600
extra hours they put in delivering sand
sandbags.

1466
01:45:02,120 --> 01:45:08,800
Um
uh big shout out to all the volunteers

1467
01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:14,840
who are helping their neighbors sandbag
and then uh remove flood debris

1468
01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:17,800
material, and then the NGOs who are in
town

1469
01:45:16,080 --> 01:45:23,200
and are uh
tackling some

1470
01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:26,640
tough messes and doing a good job, and
uh it's nice to have them in town.

1471
01:45:27,000 --> 01:45:33,920
» Absolutely. Thank you.
I see L Tunney.

1472
01:45:32,360 --> 01:45:37,920
» Oh, I would be remiss not to thank
everybody for all the work, but it's

1473
01:45:35,240 --> 01:45:41,560
kind of repetitive. Um, I can say every
time I have an opportunity to speak it

1474
01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:44,520
it always seems I'm thanking the staff,
but that's just cuz we have such a

1475
01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:48,880
phenomenal team.
Your worship, um

1476
01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:53,000
as you all know, first thing July 1st,
we opened up the we officially opened up

1477
01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:56,560
the EOC when we realized how quickly the
river was rising.

1478
01:45:54,760 --> 01:45:59,800
Um, everybody did a fantastic job, but I
really got to compliment my director of

1479
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:03,240
order room, who was
as far as I know, never been involved in

1480
01:46:01,800 --> 01:46:06,920
emergency
as this, but I recognized her talents

1481
01:46:05,440 --> 01:46:11,000
immediately and I assigned her as our
logistics officer.

1482
01:46:09,520 --> 01:46:14,960
And the proof was in the pudding as we
saw, she did a phenomenal job. Um, and

1483
01:46:13,480 --> 01:46:18,880
it's great to be able to have strong
leaders like that working uh with me

1484
01:46:17,280 --> 01:46:23,240
because as you all know, I was dealing
with the flood of my own house at the

1485
01:46:20,200 --> 01:46:26,040
same time. And I think that the uh team
collectively did a fantastic job on the

1486
01:46:25,200 --> 01:46:29,560
whole.
Uh, I'm glad to hear people are

1487
01:46:27,360 --> 01:46:32,760
recognizing that, so
that's all I have to say. It seems like

1488
01:46:30,920 --> 01:46:37,280
months ago
because it's, you know, it does, but uh

1489
01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:40,680
it wasn't that long ago.
So

1490
01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:42,560
thank you to everybody.
>> All right, thank you.

1491
01:46:42,043 --> 01:46:48,360
» [sighs]
>> Okay, so then we'll move on to 14.
