[0:57] » Well, the pressure washer and power saw also.
[1:00] The water park came up. Chainsaw and power washer came up at
[1:04] that. I can see where they need a chainsaw,
[1:06] but I don't see where they need a power washer.
[1:10] What do you need a power washer for? >> Well, like we're going to try to clean
[1:13] up the water park and the player equipment out there in the park.
[1:22] » Did you check prices on them? >> Yeah, that did.
[1:25] But, they're closer.
[1:31] We did it on the 22nd. Looks like the cheapest I think the
[1:36] cheapest everything was the chainsaw was
[1:45] There's an Echo chainsaw.
[1:49] He has a book for the lawn and garden. This is from you. Echo chainsaw, they
[1:54] give us this for $375.99. Pressure washer Echo $559.
[2:00] all seasons. Um
[2:02] echo pressure washer 559. Um and then
[2:07] the echo chainsaw 333. And then Ivers
[2:12] pressure washer 979. And that is 2700 PSI. And then that's
[2:20] a chainsaw 17 in and
[2:23] I don't know what that is. >> So, this is fuel all together.
[2:26] » Okay. That's 429.
[2:29] 559 for a pressure washer? >> 979 and 999 for the
[2:33] » Those are they're high. >> You won't give it to me like those other
[2:37] two. Yeah, but you get what you pay for. You
[2:40] either pay for something like that or they're not the quality as what Ivers
[2:44] all seasons are not as >> Me and my brother probably got five of
[2:47] them cheap ones. From that places.
[2:50] Four seasons or I don't know if they still work or
[2:53] something like that.
[2:56] So, what about four seasons? >> All seasons.
[2:59] » I broke they all broke.
[3:03] Well, I said we can use the bars all for like
[3:08] a little time and make stuff down. I think that
[3:11] we bought things off of there. Well,
[3:16] I didn't know why you need a pressure washer but we never had that one.
[3:21] You know, maybe we need to Have we My dad has a chainsaw. I'm going
[3:26] to update and the wood has to be done for that.
[3:29] What do you two think? >> It's whatever they think they need to
[3:32] do. That playground equipment needs a
[3:35] pressure wash. >> Speaking of equipment, do you have the
[3:36] money for it? >> What?
[3:39] » Do you have the money to buy that? An all season.
[3:44] I think I'd get the cheaper one. Chainsaw
[3:47] » I think they can make it work.
[3:51] Hey, I'm just saying they don't have to go to different places.
[3:53] » Yeah, chainsaw I got that already.
[3:59] » 429 >> By what?
[4:03] » The chainsaw he has one here that chainsaw with 18-in bar
[4:09] is 375.99
[4:12] and then a chainsaw with a 20-in bar instead of 18-in 383.
[4:18] He said the CS 590 chainsaw with an 18-in bar between 18 and 24 in.
[4:24] This is an 18-in bar from Miners and it's an 18-in bar from
[4:30] » Who's Who's still selling either better saw?
[4:34] » Okay. >> Miners is the better saw last year.
[4:37] What do you think? I would say
[4:42] But I have a pressure
[4:46] That's all I got.
[4:51] Well, then just you want to hold off pressure washer spring or you want to
[4:54] get >> I like the spring that you got to decide
[4:56] if you want to take over.
[5:01] » You take all right? >> Yeah, I do want to make both of them
[5:04] still chainsaw and purchase. >> It will be cheaper to buy them at Miners
[5:10] » Mhm. >> Pressure washer will be cheaper to buy
[5:13] them at Miners and purchase. >> They're different from Miners.
[5:16] » So, you may end up buying the steel chainsaw I'll second that motion.
[5:21] » You have to vote today. >> I'll second that motion.
[5:24] I'll be favorable. >> I.
[5:26] » Motion carried. >> We just had Brian at this
[5:28] later on in the fall if the pressure washer would be cheaper
[5:31] than the Miners.
[5:35] » Okay. So, is there any old business?
[5:39] » No, we can look at >> Have them in Oh, I'm sorry. Any more old
[5:42] business? >> No.
[5:44] » Okay, let's have the clerk treasurer's report.
[5:46] » Um I got the um
[5:50] money that I requested 2 weeks ago from the county.
[5:54] Um, to do upgrades for the hall. Um
[5:59] I'd like to use it to get ceiling tiles. Um
[6:04] I'd like to have a desk because this is not working.
[6:07] Um And then um
[6:12] stove for downstairs. I didn't know if you wanted two stoves or just one
[6:17] stove. We probably discussed a couple years
[6:21] ago, but I'd like the green one.
[6:25] I don't know if we even need the two stoves. I don't need them to be honest.
[6:30] And I'd like to replace the exhaust and electric stove because it
[6:33] was >> There you go.
[6:34] » I don't even think it's working. >> I don't think it
[6:37] » You have to work it. >> I don't know.
[6:38] » I don't think it does. But I also need doors for the hall cuz
[6:43] they're literally falling apart. >> Yes, they are.
[6:46] » And then with the ceiling tiles that were all up here and then we finished
[6:50] downstairs but then we had to replace them all
[6:53] with the leaks.
[6:55] But I'll get quotes three quotes for everything. But one thing with the stove
[6:59] is the only stoves you can really find
[7:02] right now are glass tops. I really don't think that would be a good idea.
[7:07] So, I did kind of go to Lowe's and they have a coil top but
[7:12] I don't know if we'll be able to get it or not.
[7:15] But I find them sure I can go somewhere else and get a coil top if I need to.
[7:19] Um But
[7:22] I'll get quotes three quotes for everything but I need to
[7:25] keep this master key for maybe a year. And I'd like to get the
[7:30] working lot for the hall also because it's
[7:33] actually working. >> What's your deed?
[7:36] » Yeah.
[7:39] So you need to get three quotes for
[7:42] everything and go ahead and start with >> him a budget?
[7:48] » Can you go? >> Can you see what the outcome is down
[7:50] there? 500?
[7:54] I'm okay. What is the local guy doing?
[7:59] » You want to have the county pay for that?
[8:08] So, you want me to get three quotes for everything and then take the lowest? Is
[8:11] that local or You keep announcing that Fresh Home is
[8:15] somebody else's job. >> It's not the truth. Yeah.
[8:17] » Um and that's that might open up a can of
[8:20] worms because when they opened up over there on the other side,
[8:25] I guess there was termites here before and all of that wood underneath there
[8:31] they replaced. The water might have been a little warm, but it was all eaten up
[8:35] by termites. So.
[8:39] So, get three quotes on everything and then go ahead and start with and take
[8:43] the lowest
[8:45] My and with the motion
[8:49] that you get three quotes, you take the cheapest one and you take this
[8:53] all off. >> Second.
[8:55] » On the table. >> You have a question to ask you, Sarah.
[8:59] There's that two things that I think we need
[9:01] » Yeah. >> You did that?
[9:03] » Yeah. >> Okay, and how about the software?
[9:06] You know we >> Oh.
[9:07] » You going to check on that? >> I still have to set through
[9:12] the like the base plan is $300 for them to give me quotes. So, I got to call
[9:16] them and get a price. >> And how long does that take?
[9:19] » Um >> I'm good.
[9:23] » Okay. So, do we have a utility report?
[9:30] » Excuse me.
[9:35] » agility report.
[9:41] Okay. >> Oh. While you guys are meeting, I'm
[9:44] going to go to I'd like to buy two replacement chairs.
[9:48] Are you here? I think we got to go to Walmart.
[9:53] It was falling apart at the office. And it's
[9:55] » I'll make a motion to buy two replacement chairs.
[9:58] » I will second you. Thank you. All in favor.
[10:01] » Aye. >> Motion carries.
[10:03] » Do you need one chair? >> No, my husband bought me one.
[10:07] » I want to make a motion >> So, do we have anything else that we
[10:09] need to discuss? Jazz has to re-ask another Jazz.
[10:13] » Are we going to wait? >> Yep.
[10:16] Okay.
[10:19] The meeting is adjourned. I'm making a motion to adjourn the
[10:23] meeting. >> I will second that.
