1
00:00:19,860 --> 00:00:22,400
I know what it is, but I wanted to see what it looked like.

2
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:28,980
I think we 20 minutes open the package.

3
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,800
It's what's on the mail the other day I got in 1989.

4
00:00:34,020 --> 00:00:35,680
New the West.

5
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,760
I got in 1989.

6
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,180
Oh, it's all right.

7
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:43,980
You think you're like 18.

8
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:45,200
I mean, hi, Rogers.

9
00:00:46,940 --> 00:00:47,420
1899.

10
00:00:48,900 --> 00:00:49,380
Newspaper.

11
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:50,780
All the things that lead you in.

12
00:00:50,780 --> 00:00:52,680
like I have three boys, they're older, right?

13
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,980
And this is a little...

14
00:00:55,380 --> 00:00:56,180
Oh, you're in the house.

15
00:00:57,180 --> 00:00:58,580
It's like I...

16
00:00:58,580 --> 00:01:02,580
In the house of 1983, which was probably your class, wasn't that Alex?

17
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:04,060
I didn't.

18
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:06,580
Really?

19
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:07,260
Yeah.

20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,480
You don't want me to graduate him?

21
00:01:09,700 --> 00:01:10,540
What year did you graduate?

22
00:01:11,140 --> 00:01:12,860
I just want you to come over there.

23
00:01:13,460 --> 00:01:13,800
Okay.

24
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,960
So, we got the same...

25
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:17,760
So, what was that?

26
00:01:18,260 --> 00:01:18,780
Yeah.

27
00:01:49,380 --> 00:02:02,100
And I'll call the meeting to order at 6.01, and I have a proof of posting here, and I'm going to ask our

28
00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:05,160
Councilor Lappier for a roll call for attendance, please.

29
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,520
roll call number one for attendance, Councillor Smith.

30
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,520
Present. Councillor Lillibready. Councillor Sullivan.

31
00:02:15,180 --> 00:02:18,120
Yeah. Councillor Lappier. Present. Councillor Wallsick.

32
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,700
President, Haltsor Dehammer?

33
00:02:20,820 --> 00:02:21,620
Chair, Senator Lewis.

34
00:02:21,620 --> 00:02:25,640
So, Mr. President, both of you or Abour would ask you which stand.

35
00:02:25,820 --> 00:02:27,540
Lead stand, sir.

36
00:02:28,100 --> 00:02:29,580
Like a reasonable equals?

37
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,640
I'd please stand on this.

38
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:38,360
I think that's the broad way to fill those just stands on.

39
00:02:39,100 --> 00:02:39,680
I don't know.

40
00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:45,660
I think that's the broad way

41
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:51,160
to do just.

42
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,860
Okay, Council members, basic agenda overview.

43
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,580
We have a couple of things that we're going to be omitting

44
00:02:58,580 --> 00:03:06,180
for different regions, one of which would be 10-1, and I think maybe one other.

45
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:16,220
That is that. That will come back to the board in the form of a ordinance,

46
00:03:16,220 --> 00:03:18,580
the suggested ordinance. Perfect.

47
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:24,260
And then it will need to follow the council rules of the siege or ordinance process.

48
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:34,300
And that will be what we're targeting provided that we can get everything in the newspaper and all that good stuff for next week.

49
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:40,380
So we're targeting the 22nd for that hearing.

50
00:03:40,940 --> 00:03:44,260
Oh, that proposal, I should say, it's the council in terms of hearing.

51
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,800
Mr. Chairman, just a point of question,

52
00:03:48,980 --> 00:04:02,370
According to China, the council has to officially introduce that, would it be necessary for a council to introduce that tonight, so we can meet to the schedule that you just referred to.

53
00:04:02,370 --> 00:04:11,130
I mean, either way, because if we introduce it as an ordinance, it's really the council

54
00:04:11,130 --> 00:04:11,990
that says, all right.

55
00:04:12,210 --> 00:04:18,830
I think this is something that we want to move to an ordinance review, or if you want to suggest

56
00:04:18,830 --> 00:04:28,010
that we have a hearing on the ordinance, the council is not prohibiting doing so.

57
00:04:28,010 --> 00:04:28,270
Okay,

58
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:36,720
so I was, if I could, if it's something that the administrative fields have proven

59
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:43,000
for us to adopt, it needs to be handled directly, so we'd be proper mean for, as a council

60
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:53,360
to, I'd like to introduce the resolution 2601 for the adoption of RSA-888 to be introduced

61
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,960
has a new audience for a scheduled public hearing.

62
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,860
That may be a long...

63
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:25,460
This particular motion is that it is really to express your interest in moving forward with this, because if I can give you this, this is smidge a background on this, is that how meeting had approved RSA 4140, what allows us to go to auction on town on property.

64
00:05:26,740 --> 00:05:38,240
The provision of 8080 in Section 3 has a provision in which in your packet is on page 4,

65
00:05:38,340 --> 00:05:46,740
you know, says, as just as may require, if some of you have gone through some of the three

66
00:05:47,380 --> 00:05:56,580
options that we've had in hoax and we have some of those lots that are like, little lots

67
00:05:56,580 --> 00:06:04,080
that only, but property, that really only the property owner can, you know, would be interested

68
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:09,000
in taking, you know, it's those small lots, and sometimes they can be big allots, too.

69
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:16,080
But the vision of 41 40 allows us to go to auction on those, and hopefully we can get

70
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:16,300
better.

71
00:06:17,180 --> 00:06:22,780
But it doesn't allow us to go to the property owner and say, you know what, I think this

72
00:06:22,780 --> 00:06:27,420
would be well suited if you were to, if you want this, you can purchase that and that's

73
00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:32,620
where and where justice may require saying that, you know, all the options are kind

74
00:06:32,620 --> 00:06:40,900
of spent on the 41-40, or say 41-40, this justice may require that provision under 83 allows

75
00:06:40,900 --> 00:06:46,900
us to have that direct contact. So if that's of interest of the council, the provision, and

76
00:06:46,900 --> 00:06:52,480
All these still have to come back to the council for permission approval.

77
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:59,840
It's just that it would be another quote in the basket of items that the council could

78
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:01,960
use in the appropriate occasion.

79
00:07:04,210 --> 00:07:08,930
So, Mr. Chairman, if I want to maybe re-state that motion, I'd like to introduce an

80
00:07:08,930 --> 00:07:17,050
ordinance for the adoption of RSA 8080 for to be considered as resolution 2601.

81
00:07:18,170 --> 00:07:22,170
Well, you're blindly introducing it at this point, I believe, because I don't think the actual war against attack.

82
00:07:22,810 --> 00:07:30,130
Actually, it's in the packet, so I think I met the, I think I met the requirement on that.

83
00:07:30,530 --> 00:07:32,690
All right, then, okay, so you have a motion.

84
00:07:33,010 --> 00:07:34,690
State of motion, anyone want to second that motion?

85
00:07:41,180 --> 00:07:46,540
The reason why I'm doing that if it's prudent to have this consider that the council

86
00:07:46,540 --> 00:07:51,140
we need to introduce it so we can go through the process of having the public caring and

87
00:07:51,140 --> 00:07:55,900
then allowing us to actually adopt it so that's why I'd like to introduce it.

88
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:07,160
Okay, Council, we'll already do have any statement in the comments, but since you want to

89
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,660
need? Is that why we're doing this?

90
00:08:11,580 --> 00:08:17,060
Yes, I mean, I thought we got most of the town on property that we wanted to get rid of.

91
00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:22,760
We did, but some of the parcels are still out there, and there's also a recent activity

92
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:29,520
that took place last year, last May, with regard to the town taking parcels of land off

93
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:35,860
It contains road that, obviously, there's some interest in that as well.

94
00:08:37,180 --> 00:08:46,080
And I believe that when we talk about this, if this does go to a public hearing and

95
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:54,420
the zoning amendment hearing, that search will be there to answer the questions with regard

96
00:08:54,420 --> 00:08:56,820
to, are there interests out there?

97
00:08:57,220 --> 00:08:58,480
Yes, there are interests out there.

98
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:05,540
is this a one that even without the more recent interest is an advantage to the town and

99
00:09:05,540 --> 00:09:06,000
our feeling?

100
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:07,820
Yes.

101
00:09:07,940 --> 00:09:09,460
Thank you.

102
00:09:09,460 --> 00:09:10,100
Thank you, Chair.

103
00:09:10,380 --> 00:09:12,860
I just wanted to read that procedure.

104
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:21,180
It's chapter 13 in our rules of procedure and it states prior to a council member introducing

105
00:09:21,180 --> 00:09:21,700
an ordinance.

106
00:09:21,860 --> 00:09:26,320
The council shall discuss the contents, which may include editorial revisions and textual

107
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:26,960
modifications.

108
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:31,340
and Nornin's needing revisions based on this discussion will be brought back to the council

109
00:09:31,340 --> 00:09:33,660
in a final format at their next scheduled meeting.

110
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,400
The final version of an ordnance shall be introduced by one counselor for public hearing

111
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,060
at the council's next scheduled meeting.

112
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:47,740
So where we are in the process here, it seems to be that first step prior to a council member

113
00:09:47,740 --> 00:09:52,420
introducing an ordnance, we shall discuss the contents and make editorial or textual modifications.

114
00:09:53,340 --> 00:09:59,500
And I was referring to 3.6 on the chart. I didn't know there was corresponding language in our rules of procedure.

115
00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:11,680
Whatever the proper procedure is, that's what I wanted to, my intention was. So if it's the better way to do it, I will pull that back that motion and go according to our rules of procedure.

116
00:10:15,900 --> 00:10:24,760
So if it says prior to, oh sorry, if it says prior to, prior to, prior to the introduction,

117
00:10:25,340 --> 00:10:29,500
to have a discussion, I mean, not introduce it first.

118
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,720
So then we would want legal counsel for the discussions.

119
00:10:34,020 --> 00:10:39,420
I would just say that the introduction in this case is specifically to put it on in a public hearing.

120
00:10:39,420 --> 00:10:44,980
So, your motion was to move it to a public hearing, Councilor and Sullivan?

121
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:52,320
Yes, under 3.6 to introduce the order into which that would prompt the required notices in the hearing.

122
00:10:52,720 --> 00:11:02,060
Yes. So, according to our rules of procedure, we have the resolution 2601 here in our packet.

123
00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:09,580
that we could read that out loud and we could discuss this editorially, textually, make any

124
00:11:09,580 --> 00:11:10,500
recommended modifications.

125
00:11:10,740 --> 00:11:15,780
And if there is none, on our next meeting, introduce it for public hearing.

126
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,440
Again, whatever the proper procedure was, certainly that's my intention.

127
00:11:22,700 --> 00:11:25,400
If you'd like, I will read it aloud for everyone.

128
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:27,500
All right.

129
00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:33,680
So this is Resolution 2601, adoption of RSA 8080, Councillor Smith.

130
00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:34,360
Gentlemen,

131
00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:37,090
continue.

132
00:11:37,530 --> 00:11:38,090
Thank you.

133
00:11:38,510 --> 00:11:52,250
pursuant to RSA 8080, the town here by approves the authorization to dispose of tax-deeded properties by advertised sealed bid public auction or an alternative method as justice may require to the extent that such approval does not already exist.

134
00:11:52,810 --> 00:12:01,710
The town further approves and ratifies all prior transfers and conveyances of tax-deeded properties by advertised sealed bid public auction or an alternative method alternative method.

135
00:12:01,710 --> 00:12:07,650
Authorization to dispose of the town's tax-deeded properties by advertised sealed-sealed bid

136
00:12:07,650 --> 00:12:14,670
public auction or an alternative method as justice may require is hereby granted indefinitely until rescinded.

137
00:12:14,850 --> 00:12:18,970
The town council hereby adopts the provisions of RSA-8080.

138
00:12:23,070 --> 00:12:27,350
So what are we looking alternative method that kind of is kind of vague?

139
00:12:27,790 --> 00:12:28,390
It is vague.

140
00:12:28,930 --> 00:12:33,310
So do we have anything what could be a possible alternative method?

141
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:43,400
Other than the one stated, I can't think of one of hand other than straight dating

142
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:50,500
to somebody of people of a piece of property, but none comes the mind other than the

143
00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:53,420
seal bid, the auction, or as justice may require.

144
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,200
There are three additional options listed in the RSA.

145
00:12:58,660 --> 00:13:01,800
Engage of real estate agent or broker to list and sell the property, including a sale

146
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,760
condition, on the buyers obtaining development approvals.

147
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:15,920
So, undeveloped parcels to a butters for consolidation into a joining loss for the purpose of affordable housing development, preserving open space or reducing development density, didn't we do that?

148
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:21,920
See, convey the property to a former owner or to a third party for benefit of a former owner.

149
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:28,640
Upon such reasonable terms as maybe agreed to in writing, including the authority of the municipality to retain a mortgage interest in the property,

150
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:35,320
or to reimpose its tax lien, contingent upon and agreed payment schedule, which need not necessarily reflect any prior redemption amount.

151
00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:42,520
Any such agreement shall be recorded in the registry of deeds, this paragraph shall not be construed to obligate any municipality to make any such conveyance or agreement.

152
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:49,800
It also states that this is, it can include these things that it also allows for our creativity

153
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,260
and making up new methods.

154
00:13:53,100 --> 00:13:53,820
I like those.

155
00:13:59,740 --> 00:14:00,340
That's interesting.

156
00:14:04,170 --> 00:14:09,610
So, the action we take in thus far is paving the way if you will for the next step.

157
00:14:10,530 --> 00:14:13,690
And I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

158
00:14:14,310 --> 00:14:19,610
If there's any legal stumbling along the way, I would assume that at some point might

159
00:14:19,610 --> 00:14:23,230
I want to sound off on this one and come here to explain this.

160
00:14:24,150 --> 00:14:25,230
You'll be here.

161
00:14:25,530 --> 00:14:29,490
But also, keep in mind that, ultimately, before this can go forward,

162
00:14:29,630 --> 00:14:32,830
even if we go through the ordinance review process,

163
00:14:33,370 --> 00:14:35,230
Council doesn't have to move forward with it.

164
00:14:35,410 --> 00:14:37,610
I mean, we're moving forward the ordinance,

165
00:14:37,790 --> 00:14:39,910
like any ordinance that come to you for the board.

166
00:14:40,310 --> 00:14:41,510
We get an input.

167
00:14:41,710 --> 00:14:47,290
We have input based on information that you might have come across

168
00:14:47,290 --> 00:14:53,330
and preparation for the adoption of this or the decision point on this particular ordinance.

169
00:14:54,090 --> 00:14:58,050
So at the end of the day, once we have all the information, the council makes a decision.

170
00:14:58,490 --> 00:14:59,970
Is this an item that is good?

171
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,280
The resolution is vague, but may be intentionally, because it's important that it's

172
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,680
It's pointing us to the RSA.

173
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:40,780
So we have a motion.

174
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:46,040
And a motion is explained in a, it pays way for us for further action.

175
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:47,280
So we have a motion.

176
00:15:47,380 --> 00:15:47,880
Wait a second.

177
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,500
All those in favor of the motion please say aye.

178
00:15:51,940 --> 00:15:52,140
Aye.

179
00:15:52,340 --> 00:15:52,940
Any opposed?

180
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:55,140
Okay.

181
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,260
So I'll inform that.

182
00:15:57,260 --> 00:16:02,660
that will prepare the ordinance for our next meeting.

183
00:16:03,500 --> 00:16:06,160
I should say the next appropriate meeting if we get all the timing

184
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,360
of notices and all that could start off then,

185
00:16:08,780 --> 00:16:10,380
it will be on the next appropriate meeting.

186
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:12,980
Great to all agree.

187
00:16:13,700 --> 00:16:14,080
Good point.

188
00:16:14,260 --> 00:16:16,360
We'll move to chef and one.

189
00:16:17,300 --> 00:16:18,600
Tony, there's sure he's report.

190
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:19,740
All right.

191
00:16:20,020 --> 00:16:20,720
Point of order.

192
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:23,880
Did you skip public input?

193
00:16:24,420 --> 00:16:25,140
Or is it not yet?

194
00:16:25,420 --> 00:16:25,660
It's nine.

195
00:16:25,660 --> 00:16:30,620
Okay, I forgot we rearranged one of the time administrators report goes.

196
00:16:30,620 --> 00:16:33,660
It throws me off still to.

197
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:42,000
So, I have one item that I've added to my report and I'll get to that after new hires.

198
00:16:42,700 --> 00:16:50,730
We have one new hire, Brian Coil, a fire department EMT who starts on April 13th.

199
00:16:50,730 --> 00:16:57,730
So five days from today and that is all I have for that.

200
00:16:58,730 --> 00:17:07,730
This one informed the council that I will be out in vacation next week from the 13th to the 17th.

201
00:17:08,250 --> 00:17:13,410
I guess it's called time off a good behavior and I've been behaving well.

202
00:17:13,410 --> 00:17:19,110
But the quantist pavilion in your hand out,

203
00:17:19,230 --> 00:17:22,530
you should have pictures of the groundbreaking ceremony

204
00:17:23,020 --> 00:17:24,310
that took place there.

205
00:17:24,370 --> 00:17:28,390
As you remember, the council did approve a contribution.

206
00:17:28,790 --> 00:17:32,490
I believe from the quantist of the $40,000

207
00:17:32,490 --> 00:17:34,470
towards this project.

208
00:17:35,210 --> 00:17:38,010
And this one has shared some pictures of those breaking

209
00:17:38,010 --> 00:17:38,390
ground.

210
00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:48,490
And those, I guess, those foundation items are going to be buried up to within a foot from

211
00:17:48,490 --> 00:17:53,670
the top, you know, in the columns are going to fit in on those brackets of the top.

212
00:17:54,890 --> 00:17:57,470
So all those are going to be buried pretty deep.

213
00:17:58,150 --> 00:17:59,410
And so that's going to be started.

214
00:17:59,470 --> 00:18:05,690
And I believe this weekend's going to be the large part of the project will be taking place.

215
00:18:05,690 --> 00:18:09,930
So then we have a bunch of volunteers for that.

216
00:18:10,330 --> 00:18:13,270
So I'm sure that photo is not holding your phone.

217
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:18,500
There we are.

218
00:18:18,780 --> 00:18:19,560
All right, but the concept.

219
00:18:19,940 --> 00:18:21,020
So that's great.

220
00:18:22,860 --> 00:18:26,600
Although this is happening a couple of months from now,

221
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,800
the police will be conducting training at Town Hall

222
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:35,140
on Friday afternoon on June 5th and Friday afternoon, June 12th.

223
00:18:35,140 --> 00:18:40,980
So if anybody has to be stopping by on that on those

224
00:18:40,980 --> 00:18:44,260
afternoons, I just want to make sure it's clear that there

225
00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:49,080
will be some police training going on here and not to be

226
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:49,780
surprised,

227
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,440
and I will keep this on my T report.

228
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:59,040
This has arrived up to the June 5th and June 12th dates.

229
00:18:59,360 --> 00:19:02,880
So again, this is a reminder that on those afternoons,

230
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,940
Tom Hall will be utilized by those.

231
00:19:06,100 --> 00:19:10,020
And I believe they have reached out to some of the groups

232
00:19:10,020 --> 00:19:12,180
that use the gym and things of that sort.

233
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:14,740
So, everybody is clear.

234
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:21,060
Steve, the comfort dog made the union leader on March 26th,

235
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,660
2026, as you will know, that they

236
00:19:23,660 --> 00:19:26,900
come to the data prove the program and theirs.

237
00:19:26,900 --> 00:19:32,100
They're Steve, which may not have the name of our former chief

238
00:19:32,100 --> 00:19:39,960
a fleet of fire chief as was asked by Councillor Lampere but that is Steve and so far so

239
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:45,920
good over there at the at the fire department. It's a great picture of our dog here and his

240
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:47,160
trainer.

241
00:19:50,670 --> 00:19:56,590
I asked this at the last meeting and I'm hopefully conscious how to chance to think about it

242
00:19:56,590 --> 00:19:58,990
but CFP committee needs a Council representative.

243
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:06,140
And our first meeting is next Wednesday, April 15th at 5 o'clock,

244
00:20:08,380 --> 00:20:11,640
which will be starting the CIP process, and capital

245
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:17,120
process, and I'm sorry if we can use any acronym. That's what it stands for, capital improvements.

246
00:20:17,660 --> 00:20:27,920
And those are items, $50,000 or more, whether it's equipment, land, or vehicle falls into

247
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:37,220
that our project, we've had a couple of conservation projects, the reconstructed and trails that

248
00:20:37,220 --> 00:20:40,160
are access that amount, that threshold now.

249
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:47,820
So, anyways, if we can get a representative, that would be great for the committee, and

250
00:20:47,820 --> 00:20:50,220
again, the first meeting is next Wednesday.

251
00:21:03,940 --> 00:21:08,080
The town clerk in town for a long time.

252
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,040
What was that?

253
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,100
Well, worst case scenario.

254
00:21:11,060 --> 00:21:12,340
If I can make it, I'll try to make it.

255
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:14,320
Can we like share it?

256
00:21:14,420 --> 00:21:14,940
I don't know.

257
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:16,540
Of course you should.

258
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,680
I don't want you doing it, but there are a handful of.

259
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:19,820
Yeah.

260
00:21:19,820 --> 00:21:20,340
What the consequences?

261
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:22,800
I just don't.

262
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:23,640
I want suicide.

263
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:25,440
Well, it's really funny.

264
00:21:25,580 --> 00:21:26,380
It's really for me.

265
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,880
So from not paving or on a construction job,

266
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,780
and I can get back here by that time, I'll try.

267
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,920
Well, it's just early for me.

268
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,380
So you can't make a rocket, sorry.

269
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,260
But if you remember, I'm going to park the truck

270
00:21:38,260 --> 00:21:38,460
and try it.

271
00:21:38,460 --> 00:21:40,520
That's how we put the eye on driveway, everybody's staying.

272
00:21:40,740 --> 00:21:42,520
The budget committee, you know, I know.

273
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,880
I think we had three people, as part of the budget committee,

274
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:46,720
but we had representation there.

275
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,340
So we, you know, and I had to think that input.

276
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:50,300
Sure, it's important.

277
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,300
I'll take it.

278
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,680
I wasn't sure what I was doing last year, but I did.

279
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,520
was part of it, and received was very good to fill in the gaps.

280
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,020
So, I was following this, the undersea and in this,

281
00:22:05,140 --> 00:22:06,540
I won't be able to get every single one.

282
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:07,620
I can do that again.

283
00:22:10,150 --> 00:22:10,430
Well, thank you.

284
00:22:10,650 --> 00:22:17,910
The Tom Clark is seeking to purchase signs,

285
00:22:18,130 --> 00:22:27,170
much like the council did, with regard to the banners and the

286
00:22:27,170 --> 00:22:57,150
election and deliberative session that took place and and and the town clerk would like to do that for the pet registration period between I think April 30th and June 30th I believe is that period of time and

287
00:22:57,150 --> 00:23:08,030
big rectangular sign that was great had one of our officers and the arcane 9 on it,

288
00:23:08,130 --> 00:23:15,610
reminder to renew by April 30th and that needed to be replaced.

289
00:23:17,150 --> 00:23:27,970
So, discussing it, having gone through the town election, signs being ordered, we got to

290
00:23:27,970 --> 00:23:35,670
talking, and I think it would be more, it would, one save some expense, and also be more

291
00:23:35,670 --> 00:23:41,390
beneficial to have multiple signs like we did, like those magnetic ones, so it's not just

292
00:23:41,390 --> 00:23:43,810
on gigantic sign in front of the town hall.

293
00:23:44,530 --> 00:23:51,050
I know the town clerk feels that she can find most of it,

294
00:23:51,050 --> 00:23:53,530
but I just wanted, I felt like that was up in the council

295
00:23:53,530 --> 00:23:56,450
should, just at their blessing too,

296
00:23:56,710 --> 00:24:01,590
and we can allow, you know, Crania and the town administrator

297
00:24:01,590 --> 00:24:02,850
to do that.

298
00:24:04,690 --> 00:24:09,490
Conscious Smith, so can we talk about what we do currently

299
00:24:09,490 --> 00:24:12,510
to inform the public because I believe we do a mailing, right?

300
00:24:12,950 --> 00:24:13,510
So, yes.

301
00:24:14,230 --> 00:24:17,410
And we were talking about that currently, I mean,

302
00:24:18,290 --> 00:24:19,810
I don't have the breakdowns,

303
00:24:20,290 --> 00:24:23,690
but hundreds of dollars are spent between the postcards,

304
00:24:23,950 --> 00:24:26,290
the reminders, and all of that.

305
00:24:26,430 --> 00:24:29,490
So one of the thoughts was if we could have gotten these signs out sooner,

306
00:24:29,750 --> 00:24:31,530
maybe could have not done the postcard.

307
00:24:31,850 --> 00:24:34,910
Oh, so one would, in a sense, negate the other, or, or, pervious.

308
00:24:35,530 --> 00:24:37,630
Yes, because then there's still another mailing

309
00:24:37,630 --> 00:24:43,970
And then the big expense comes if they haven't renewed and it goes to the civil forfeiture

310
00:24:43,970 --> 00:24:48,470
letters, which are upwards of $10 or more per meal.

311
00:24:50,910 --> 00:24:57,290
We do have, this was the old sign, it's not very good picture, but so we've just thought

312
00:24:57,290 --> 00:24:59,970
by trying to get that word out, it not just have it in one place.

313
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:22,140
We could really try to cut from that. That's a huge expense, just on on it is animal renewals. And we know we're not taking anybody's animals, I mean, I would, but, you know, so really if we can get more registrations, get them done online, they can call her, they can do all of that. We could save some money in the end.

314
00:25:23,580 --> 00:25:51,280
I don't like to mention also that council or liberty mentioned this to me a couple of weeks ago and it was going to be my, I was going to get it on the agenda and I forgot or I didn't get it on the agenda so I have to take blame for that so this isn't, this isn't something that was a flash in the pants you've been inquiring about this and I know from deal with it in previous meetings, previous years I should say.

315
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:58,260
the child runs up an interesting amount of money chasing down people to remind them of the responsibility

316
00:25:58,260 --> 00:26:01,500
and sometimes it's just they got out of the stuff going on if you get it.

317
00:26:01,660 --> 00:26:07,580
So if we put some signs out and it saves some mailing and saves a civil force for your process,

318
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,500
then they will probably pay for themselves.

319
00:26:10,540 --> 00:26:10,760
Yeah.

320
00:26:11,580 --> 00:26:12,080
Councilor.

321
00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:13,760
Thank you.

322
00:26:13,860 --> 00:26:21,260
I was just thinking we got a wonderful offer from Merchants Auto to put information on there

323
00:26:21,260 --> 00:26:25,800
new sign as well. This might be a good candidate for that.

324
00:26:28,250 --> 00:26:29,050
I'm not saying no to the

325
00:26:29,050 --> 00:26:30,530
signs I'm saying yes and

326
00:26:32,930 --> 00:26:44,630
so I know a little bit. This was probably for the council last year

327
00:26:44,630 --> 00:26:48,270
and I want to say it was maybe like one of my very first meetings or maybe I was just watching

328
00:26:48,270 --> 00:26:56,170
at that point, it was last spring, and you can pass it around. So the big sign behind the

329
00:26:56,170 --> 00:27:04,630
little sign, at last year's expense was just over $2,000. But if you see it, it's an awkward

330
00:27:04,630 --> 00:27:08,210
size, so it's a special order. It was full photo.

331
00:27:10,470 --> 00:27:13,590
And again, it was one sign out front, and

332
00:27:13,590 --> 00:27:18,010
I had said, I drove by, and I thought, oh, what a cute dog. I didn't remember to, you

333
00:27:18,010 --> 00:27:20,790
just you don't. And so,

334
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:29,380
at the time, counselor, nine, had offered to make a sign and contribute

335
00:27:29,380 --> 00:27:34,960
it, which is the sign in front, which looks awesome. But we still need to figure out how

336
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:41,320
to hang it, and that's where it got to. If we could do similar to the banners in the magnet

337
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:45,180
ones, that we could get it out across the town much better.

338
00:27:45,180 --> 00:27:50,880
I do, we could use here year, and I'd like to see the cost a lot less than $2,000.

339
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,860
Well, and it's going to do what's happening any good.

340
00:27:53,260 --> 00:27:54,280
Yeah, I'm sorry to interrupt.

341
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,260
What did the town election signs come in at?

342
00:27:59,900 --> 00:28:06,660
That was kind of my guideline, and again, town park thinks she can find some savings in the budget.

343
00:28:10,810 --> 00:28:15,790
So, see if I could get that 300 dollar mark for some reason, that's what brings, I don't

344
00:28:15,790 --> 00:28:16,650
know, we saw an exact.

345
00:28:16,650 --> 00:28:30,270
And Mr. Chairman, if it's under the purview of the clerk, and it's within the budget, then the clerk can certainly do what they need to, to hurt, to expedite this process that she's authority, as authority was.

346
00:28:30,310 --> 00:28:32,890
So I don't have any problem, probably, but I can even imagine.

347
00:28:33,250 --> 00:28:41,890
You brought it up for our discussion, but if it's under the clerks authority, and it's within her budget, then let her do what they need to do.

348
00:28:44,290 --> 00:28:57,190
So, you know, I definitely agree with what Councilor Sullivan said, so I think, you know, getting these out there is a great idea. I think a similar scenario that what we just did is applicable.

349
00:28:58,550 --> 00:29:04,150
I do maybe want to reference it. I don't think our signs are magnetized. I think they use magnets to hold them.

350
00:29:05,010 --> 00:29:08,150
That's fine. I just want to clarify that so that we just have a basic idea.

351
00:29:08,150 --> 00:29:14,630
Yeah, but I like it. I think it's a good way for people to see stuff driving on the road

352
00:29:14,630 --> 00:29:17,570
Trash trucks the trash truck goes by everybody's house

353
00:29:22,310 --> 00:29:26,110
Thank you. I was just gonna say I that I also grew with councilor Sullivan

354
00:29:26,110 --> 00:29:27,610
I don't even think we need a motion

355
00:29:27,610 --> 00:29:31,050
It's not like the minute I have two people agreeing with me. Yeah, you should

356
00:29:31,570 --> 00:29:35,090
We're gonna highlight it start it. I'll be looking for where I

357
00:29:35,090 --> 00:29:39,450
Apologize for that I don't even think we need a motion because it's not like we make a motion

358
00:29:39,450 --> 00:29:40,790
and she sends up registered mail.

359
00:29:41,190 --> 00:29:43,190
This is still within her budget within her purview.

360
00:29:43,330 --> 00:29:45,350
If she was asking us for money from somewhere else,

361
00:29:45,490 --> 00:29:48,230
then I see that, but I think it should.

362
00:29:48,970 --> 00:29:49,890
Right, where'd it go?

363
00:29:50,490 --> 00:29:52,730
Right, anyone else, can you have a question with that?

364
00:29:53,050 --> 00:29:55,730
I can't find the cost, they.

365
00:29:56,690 --> 00:29:59,490
For some reason I thought it was just above a thousand.

366
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:24,520
I thought I was trying to look up the email that I got from Gerald, and I can't find that particular one. I think she gave me a quote based on the three items, one of which was a local one, the U.S. suggested a consistent, and the other two was off or outside of town. Actually, no, there's two end town, one outside town.

367
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:29,500
But if it's three items, like three intervals of peace, that's about what they're at.

368
00:30:29,780 --> 00:30:31,300
Yeah, that's what about, yeah.

369
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,980
So if she's going to go forward with that, if she finds out, it's,

370
00:30:35,980 --> 00:30:37,580
everybody is not going to support it.

371
00:30:37,700 --> 00:30:38,980
And maybe it can come back to us quickly.

372
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,420
It has to be quickly the best times of the essence, obviously.

373
00:30:42,660 --> 00:30:42,860
So.

374
00:30:43,260 --> 00:30:44,880
Thank you.

375
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,760
Contour, actually.

376
00:30:48,140 --> 00:30:54,500
That is what I had for items other than the police chief contract.

377
00:30:59,940 --> 00:31:17,060
I would recommend that we go in and on public first discuss the contract and whatever the decision is made and then we will come out to public session to report our decision.

378
00:31:17,060 --> 00:31:27,440
And upcoming meetings, we have the 13th, the Conservation Commission, the 15th, Economic Development and Advisory Committee at 430,

379
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:34,060
Conservation Commission at 430, Economic Development Advisory Committee at 430, on the 15th, 16th,

380
00:31:34,060 --> 00:31:37,100
Supervisor, the checklist at four,

381
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,720
planning board meeting on April 20th at six,

382
00:31:39,980 --> 00:31:44,160
and April 22nd, is our next council meeting.

383
00:31:44,980 --> 00:31:47,080
And that's all I have for you.

384
00:31:47,420 --> 00:31:47,600
Mr. Chair.

385
00:31:47,660 --> 00:31:48,360
Thank you, Andre.

386
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,680
Next item of business counselors is number nine.

387
00:31:51,780 --> 00:31:52,600
Public input.

388
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,560
Is there anyone in the audience who would like to

389
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,960
participate in public input?

390
00:32:02,500 --> 00:32:04,020
Okay, not being a case.

391
00:32:04,020 --> 00:32:12,140
The answers will be skipping over 10-1 this evening that was we talked, we discussed that and we've got a different path for that at just point.

392
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,600
So our next item is Heritage Commission Annual Update.

393
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:17,520
And

394
00:32:19,730 --> 00:32:21,150
we've been making that presentation.

395
00:32:21,670 --> 00:32:23,210
The chair for its Tony is the actor.

396
00:32:23,410 --> 00:32:23,790
Hi Tony.

397
00:32:24,450 --> 00:32:26,390
Okay Tony, have a come on up and have a seat.

398
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:39,240
Good evening.

399
00:32:42,970 --> 00:32:48,630
So the Heritage Commission, we've been pretty busy since the,

400
00:32:48,630 --> 00:32:55,210
Well, this past fiscal year, we remain actively engaged in historic preservation, documentation

401
00:32:55,210 --> 00:32:58,390
and community education efforts throughout the town.

402
00:32:58,890 --> 00:33:03,330
The commission's work has focused on balancing responsible development with the preservation

403
00:33:03,330 --> 00:33:04,950
of hoaxed historical identity.

404
00:33:05,830 --> 00:33:12,590
One of the commission's notable efforts involved the review of the property at 267, London

405
00:33:12,590 --> 00:33:17,710
Dairy Turnpike, formerly known as the O'Brien Farmhouse.

406
00:33:18,670 --> 00:33:23,230
Following a public hearing and detailed historical research that commissioned a term in the

407
00:33:23,230 --> 00:33:28,690
structure to be historically significant, that property has not been demolished at this

408
00:33:28,690 --> 00:33:29,350
time.

409
00:33:29,950 --> 00:33:36,810
However, we did come to an agreement with them on demolition and their agreed to put a historical

410
00:33:36,810 --> 00:33:43,870
sign on the property which has been documented on the plans with the planning board, which

411
00:33:43,870 --> 00:33:48,510
been great to see that the Heritage Commission has been able to work with the planning board

412
00:33:48,510 --> 00:33:54,150
in terms of different site approvals and things, which is the first time in my time being on

413
00:33:54,150 --> 00:33:57,630
the Heritage Commission that we've been able to work with the planning board and things like that,

414
00:33:57,670 --> 00:33:58,810
so it's been good.

415
00:34:01,550 --> 00:34:05,930
We've also continued to advance our historical marker program across town,

416
00:34:06,850 --> 00:34:11,830
where it has progress on multiple projects including Lambert's Park, the Ford Morrissey House

417
00:34:11,830 --> 00:34:18,350
over at Southern New Hampshire University and the Ordway Cemetery over on Kate Road off of

418
00:34:18,350 --> 00:34:24,090
Hackett Hill. With ongoing research, design and coordination efforts to ensure historical

419
00:34:24,090 --> 00:34:30,870
accuracy and meaningful public presentation. Another major ongoing initiative is the development

420
00:34:30,870 --> 00:34:37,470
of the new history book that we've been working on for the last couple of years. This is encompassing

421
00:34:37,470 --> 00:34:45,070
period from 1968 until 2026. Over this period, the Commission has worked closely with its

422
00:34:45,070 --> 00:34:50,610
contracted researcher, Melissa Moore, who is a resident of Loudon, and she's been working diligently

423
00:34:50,610 --> 00:34:56,950
with us on getting oral histories, doing interviews with all different groups, businesses,

424
00:34:56,950 --> 00:34:59,970
is people in town and developing chat.

425
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:08,400
After a structure in themes, the project has recently moved into design discussions, including cover concepts, photography, and distribution planning.

426
00:35:09,060 --> 00:35:18,500
The commission is targeting completion of the manuscript by early 2027 with printed copies anticipated to be available to the public by June of 2027.

427
00:35:18,500 --> 00:35:25,640
So, coming up and that's going to be, it's going to be a really good book, so I'm very

428
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:30,820
much looking forward to that and having people in town learn about our history because it's

429
00:35:30,820 --> 00:35:37,620
it's pretty cool. The commission also continued preliminary work on establishing a neighborhood

430
00:35:37,620 --> 00:35:43,800
heritage district within the village area along Merimax street, the side streets and Main Street.

431
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:48,960
In coordination with the town planner efforts have focused on defining district boundaries,

432
00:35:49,740 --> 00:35:56,120
exploring zoning strategies, and identifying tools such as RSA-79E to support preservation

433
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,980
and reinvestment in our historic village area.

434
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:05,660
Additional initiatives during this period included reviewing potential improvements to the

435
00:36:05,660 --> 00:36:11,700
demolition permit process, beginning development of a townwide historical property database,

436
00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:16,220
and continuing research efforts to support future preservation decisions.

437
00:36:17,980 --> 00:36:21,600
The Commission remain engaged with the community through public programming and events.

438
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,800
This included participation in Old Home Day with a Heritage Trolley tour,

439
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:31,700
featuring recorded historical narration, which was themed last year around the 1930s,

440
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,780
which focused on the great flood of 36 and the village.

441
00:36:39,380 --> 00:36:47,400
Let's see, and we also supported educational programming at the Head School with different local

442
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:48,840
organizations and groups.

443
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:54,620
If anyone is not familiar with that, the Head School is a one room brick school house located

444
00:36:54,620 --> 00:37:00,740
off Pleasant Street, and that is town owned but was restored through the Heritage Commission

445
00:37:00,740 --> 00:37:04,680
in the early 2010s by Kathy Northrop.

446
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,460
Um, so that's been a good program.

447
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,520
Um, uh, a Vicki Dase R&A's in charge of that.

448
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:17,180
And, uh, they've been struggling with getting volunteers to keep that historical programming going for the children in town.

449
00:37:17,460 --> 00:37:21,300
Um, the third graders have been doing field trips there for many, many years.

450
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:27,960
Um, but they, um, the volunteers with that program are aging and they're, um, kind of aging out of the program.

451
00:37:28,340 --> 00:37:33,700
Um, so they've been working hard to try and find new people and they actually have recruited three new people.

452
00:37:33,700 --> 00:37:36,080
So that's been, that's been good.

453
00:37:38,240 --> 00:37:44,520
Also, we've been focus on expanding our historical storyboard program within the Huxit Village area.

454
00:37:44,700 --> 00:37:49,900
Plans are underway for the Alfred J. Lambert Riverside Park storyboards to be developed.

455
00:37:50,540 --> 00:37:54,320
Well, they already developed, but to have them be installed with a target completion.

456
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,440
Hopefully being installed may of this year would be the goal.

457
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:05,480
A formal unveiling and park rededication is anticipated for September in coordination with Old

458
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:10,760
Home Day. In addition, the commission aims to develop between three and six new storyboard

459
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:16,000
installations by the end of the year. This continued expansion is intended to enhance quality

460
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:21,340
of life for residents by creating accessible and engaging opportunities to learn about our history.

461
00:38:21,340 --> 00:38:28,800
And we're also looking for recruitment on the Heritage Commission with my new appointment or

462
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,500
election to the town council coming up in June or July.

463
00:38:33,060 --> 00:38:38,860
I will no longer be able to service chairperson on the commission so we're actively looking

464
00:38:38,860 --> 00:38:45,520
for people to join the commission so we're able to continue doing the work which later on

465
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:46,580
in the agenda today.

466
00:38:46,580 --> 00:38:51,320
You'll see Carrie Hyde is going to be appointed on the commission which we're very excited

467
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:57,540
about. So recruitment is working. And that's my update for the council. Any questions?

468
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,680
Any questions for any questions for Chairman?

469
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:09,300
I'm just going to comment the the history book. The name will be really soon. I think there.

470
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,760
That's going to be a fantastic addition.

471
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:18,860
a co-companying piece of the child's hotie book, it's going to be a wonderful piece in

472
00:39:18,860 --> 00:39:24,960
the author is fantastic and the Heritage Commission has been working with her and you'll

473
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:29,900
be in very impressed. So that's a good thing. And I'm very excited about the lambage

474
00:39:29,900 --> 00:39:35,920
park and where we cut, took care of some of those issues. I think we're there at the

475
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:42,660
point, so again, it benefits to that in the other thing which is an offshoot, which

476
00:39:42,660 --> 00:39:48,100
separate was the school moms, the head school society, which is under the Heritage Commission.

477
00:39:49,020 --> 00:39:54,300
That's doing well and I'm glad the chair mentioned the three additional school moms

478
00:39:54,300 --> 00:39:59,960
as they call them. I know they do the third graders. I know some girl scout groups are coming in.

479
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:15,540
And I think there's maybe one or two, I'm hearing about maybe some adult groups coming in, but that's a wonderful recreation of like 1840s is the recreation of that one whom schoolhouse, which was actually built on 1838.

480
00:40:16,540 --> 00:40:23,000
So let's face that the school district does keep their buildings that long, they do some repair once in a while, but we do.

481
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:24,000
So that's fantastic.

482
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:30,060
So Kudos to the chair and the other committee members, and special thanks to everyone else

483
00:40:30,060 --> 00:40:30,820
who works on that.

484
00:40:31,140 --> 00:40:37,140
And some other members who have contributed, Abby Malonis, who's not serving us, but has

485
00:40:37,140 --> 00:40:41,660
the adjunct in, of course, Ms. Vicki, that the chair referred to.

486
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:43,760
So Kudos to the Heritage Commission.

487
00:40:44,780 --> 00:40:46,120
So that's all I have to say.

488
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:46,680
Thank you.

489
00:40:46,860 --> 00:40:47,300
Thank you, Tony.

490
00:40:47,980 --> 00:40:48,400
Welcome.

491
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:49,620
Appreciate it.

492
00:40:49,980 --> 00:40:50,900
Tony, thank you.

493
00:40:53,880 --> 00:41:08,100
Okay, Councillor, we have another scheduled appointment this evening and Mr. Ray Bonny is here to represent and present the Recycle and Transfer Advisory Committee and update. Mr. Bonny, welcome. Good to have you here.

494
00:41:11,130 --> 00:41:11,530
Still early.

495
00:41:15,770 --> 00:41:25,400
So, this is just, I'm just here with our list and you can answer many questions afterwards you might have.

496
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:31,720
So the staffing update, they are fully staffed, I want to say it's the first time in at least five or six years.

497
00:41:31,940 --> 00:41:34,800
I'm not quite sure, but I'm kind of sure.

498
00:41:36,140 --> 00:41:39,920
And Jim Levine, he was promoted to a heavy equipment operator.

499
00:41:40,700 --> 00:41:45,060
I'm sorry, he has promoted from a heavy equipment operator to assistant crew chief.

500
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,940
And they got two new hires.

501
00:41:50,260 --> 00:41:55,560
Robert Frattis, he's an equipment operator and Nick Tanadi, trash truck driver.

502
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:04,540
Got a facility update. Unfortunately, they didn't get the money, they approved for the new building.

503
00:42:05,140 --> 00:42:09,300
They appeared to have been misinformation, shared with residents regarding the tax impact.

504
00:42:10,420 --> 00:42:16,420
This is not accurate, delaying the project ultimately results in higher costs in the future.

505
00:42:16,420 --> 00:42:25,620
We got rid of some old iron. They sold a 2,000 and 15 international trash truck off of

506
00:42:25,620 --> 00:42:33,600
guv deals for 23,000. I'm just actually a really good price. And they sold a 1990

507
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:40,620
bill for $4,800. The scrap price and that was only 600. So they did very well.

508
00:42:43,100 --> 00:42:43,280
They have

509
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,420
Newbale, they got two grants.

510
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,680
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no, they missed the grant.

511
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,720
A newbale was purchased in December 2025.

512
00:42:52,700 --> 00:42:57,180
They received a $5,000 grant from New Hampshire,

513
00:42:57,180 --> 00:42:59,680
recycles on behalf of New Hampshire, the beautiful.

514
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,800
On the bailer, if you haven't seen it, it's pretty cool.

515
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:14,020
Right now, the town is paying $98.10 a ton to dump trash.

516
00:43:14,020 --> 00:43:24,020
It'll increase to 103 dollars even effective July 1st of this year and effective January 1st.

517
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:33,680
January 1st, 2026 will implement it at $3.50 surcharge, which I would love to talk to you about after.

518
00:43:34,990 --> 00:43:45,310
For furniture, we pay $109 a ton, and waste management surcharge is based on total weight.

519
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:59,720
So the demolition demo was $119 per ton, electronics, it depends on what type it is,

520
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,920
but it ranges from 7 cents to 20 cents a pound.

521
00:44:03,940 --> 00:44:10,880
And free on, it's $8 per unit, and they've removed the free on, the metal goes into the metal pile.

522
00:44:12,700 --> 00:44:22,380
Batteries, lithium ion batteries, a doll of 50 a pound, nickel-codium dry, a 78 cents a pound,

523
00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:28,400
and this, trying to give the residents trying to teach them the difference between the two batteries.

524
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:43,140
cardboard is $40 a ton. Metal is $140 a ton. Mixed glass is $50 for a ton, but we paid

525
00:44:43,140 --> 00:44:49,140
to get rid of that. We're paying to get rid of cardboard? No, no. Only the mixed glass.

526
00:44:49,780 --> 00:44:55,580
cardboard we get $40 a ton. That's what they pay us, $40 a ton. It was way higher,

527
00:44:55,580 --> 00:44:57,960
But it's going down.

528
00:45:00,430 --> 00:45:11,570
Plastic, they are currently seeking a vendor. The market conditions make plastic difficult to move, and the current rate for number one, seven bills is a quarter of a cent.

529
00:45:12,890 --> 00:45:15,090
So, for every four pounds, it's a penny.

530
00:45:18,810 --> 00:45:24,410
And the solar project's been approved, and the project is expected to begin in the early spring.

531
00:45:25,410 --> 00:45:30,990
And it's not in here, but we get a few surcharge now when they come to pick up anything

532
00:45:30,990 --> 00:45:35,390
like the metal, someone comes and picks it up, they pack a few surcharge on.

533
00:45:37,790 --> 00:45:41,730
And they don't pick up the plastic enough that we receive the last few surcharge.

534
00:45:45,530 --> 00:45:46,650
That's all I got on this list.

535
00:45:46,770 --> 00:45:49,690
If you guys have any questions, but I do have something else to talk to you about.

536
00:45:50,110 --> 00:45:50,690
We'll take questions.

537
00:45:50,870 --> 00:45:54,350
We'll give you some questions first and you can get them into your second one if you'd like

538
00:45:54,350 --> 00:45:55,950
or a cell of it.

539
00:45:56,090 --> 00:45:57,410
And I just a quick question.

540
00:45:57,690 --> 00:46:02,150
You said the cost to transfer is going up from

541
00:46:02,150 --> 00:46:03,190
98 to 103.

542
00:46:04,130 --> 00:46:05,310
So that's five dollars.

543
00:46:05,430 --> 00:46:05,730
Yes.

544
00:46:05,870 --> 00:46:10,150
What is the amount that we need to transfer?

545
00:46:10,750 --> 00:46:14,630
Because that would lead to the administrative coming up

546
00:46:14,630 --> 00:46:16,690
with another five dollars times.

547
00:46:16,770 --> 00:46:19,850
I believe it's already into the system.

548
00:46:20,090 --> 00:46:23,870
But last year, we did a total of 5,038 tons

549
00:46:23,870 --> 00:46:32,230
between trash and going to the landfill in Rochester so that 5,000 tons times 5 is 25 grand

550
00:46:32,230 --> 00:46:37,090
is the additional that we would have to come up with with the only with the default budget because

551
00:46:37,090 --> 00:46:39,150
that's not calculated the default budget is correct

552
00:46:40,110 --> 00:46:45,730
if that is more is that a surcharge so that's not the surcharge it's not going to get too late

553
00:46:45,730 --> 00:46:53,070
okay this is we have the we sign a contract I believe for 10 years so it's all so we don't

554
00:46:53,070 --> 00:46:55,270
We're going to pay for the next 10 years.

555
00:46:56,150 --> 00:47:02,130
So the additional $5 per tonne needs to be covered somehow, which would

556
00:47:02,130 --> 00:47:05,330
res out in the operating budget, which is similar with the file.

557
00:47:05,630 --> 00:47:05,650
Okay.

558
00:47:05,790 --> 00:47:07,750
So that's additional cost.

559
00:47:08,290 --> 00:47:10,490
No, it should already be in the July first.

560
00:47:10,630 --> 00:47:12,090
It should already take effect for July.

561
00:47:12,090 --> 00:47:13,710
It's a part of the tipping fee contract.

562
00:47:14,270 --> 00:47:14,350
Yes.

563
00:47:14,350 --> 00:47:14,670
Yes.

564
00:47:14,830 --> 00:47:15,370
This is here.

565
00:47:15,530 --> 00:47:15,730
What?

566
00:47:16,110 --> 00:47:16,630
Okay.

567
00:47:16,950 --> 00:47:17,270
Yes.

568
00:47:17,830 --> 00:47:19,930
And therefore, it's in the contract.

569
00:47:19,930 --> 00:47:27,050
It's for God. Okay, so it's a contracted obligation, so that is calculated. Yeah, the pump. Okay, thank you for that clarification

570
00:47:27,050 --> 00:47:31,810
I was thinking something else. So any other constant how any court. I relieved on that then

571
00:47:34,070 --> 00:47:35,030
Yeah, so

572
00:47:36,210 --> 00:47:38,130
What kind of times are we recycling

573
00:47:39,170 --> 00:47:42,030
Excuse me. What kind of tonnage are we recycling?

574
00:47:46,610 --> 00:47:50,720
I know we do very good with the cans. We do super with the cardboard.

575
00:47:53,550 --> 00:47:55,890
They didn't pack that for me.

576
00:47:56,170 --> 00:47:58,710
Okay, that's all because my question is that's again,

577
00:47:59,070 --> 00:48:02,130
that's what I want to see if we should start recycling cardboard again

578
00:48:02,130 --> 00:48:04,050
if we should start picking it up.

579
00:48:04,430 --> 00:48:07,450
That was something I've been asking about again and again,

580
00:48:07,790 --> 00:48:10,190
because I know there's a lot of cardboard at my house with Amazon.

581
00:48:10,190 --> 00:48:11,350
There's a ton of cardboard.

582
00:48:11,350 --> 00:48:16,490
Yeah, they made great fire pit stylist, but then you got to re-educate the people.

583
00:48:16,850 --> 00:48:20,070
Yeah. As it is, they do great up there. All that cardboard is delivered from

584
00:48:21,510 --> 00:48:26,970
an Amazon delivers all their cardboard there. We would never refuse it because we get paid to

585
00:48:26,970 --> 00:48:33,470
we get paid for it. Right. So now with the new valor, it would be even quicker. You got to see that thing.

586
00:48:34,070 --> 00:48:40,390
It's amazing. Yeah. If you knew what the old one was like, you got from a 1990 or 2025?

587
00:48:41,350 --> 00:48:43,070
It's like a brand new wife, dude.

588
00:48:46,430 --> 00:48:48,210
I don't have to go check it out.

589
00:48:48,210 --> 00:48:48,250
I don't have to go check it out.

590
00:48:48,290 --> 00:48:49,090
It's not expensive.

591
00:48:50,850 --> 00:48:52,670
It's probably cheaper than a new wife.

592
00:48:53,950 --> 00:48:57,210
Thirty-six years of innovation, sure, it's a little better.

593
00:48:59,130 --> 00:48:59,210
All right.

594
00:48:59,390 --> 00:49:03,790
So do you see any improvements that we can make down there as far as to help with the recycling

595
00:49:04,830 --> 00:49:06,190
and then in the trash?

596
00:49:06,190 --> 00:49:16,730
if we could, the cod was the thing, and if we could, plastic would be, I think it was Sean

597
00:49:16,730 --> 00:49:23,190
told me, the money for, if we could only separate milk jugs and milk jugs only, that's considered

598
00:49:23,190 --> 00:49:31,630
number one, like steel. And it's a crazy price how much that is worth the recycle. But we don't have

599
00:49:31,630 --> 00:49:37,410
kind of space. Did you just put milk jugs aside? Milk jugs in one gallon?

600
00:49:38,810 --> 00:49:42,430
You know the other question you said with the steel is we're getting a

601
00:49:42,430 --> 00:49:46,210
surcharge to pick up the steel. I get a few surcharge. I thought we got a new

602
00:49:46,210 --> 00:49:50,330
trailer. I thought we could. No, no, no.

603
00:49:52,510 --> 00:49:54,450
We got windfield comes in down and

604
00:49:54,450 --> 00:49:59,610
takes it. When you go up to the landfill after the transfer of station you dump

605
00:49:59,610 --> 00:49:59,950
your metal.

606
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:05,600
On to the right, that goes in the dump stop. And windfield comes and takes it, and they pay us for it.

607
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,000
I see. What are they paying a ton?

608
00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:12,580
140 a ton.

609
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:14,980
140 a ton. But they have a fuel search.

610
00:50:15,500 --> 00:50:16,520
They have a fuel search.

611
00:50:16,940 --> 00:50:19,500
We can't deliver it with our trail.

612
00:50:20,980 --> 00:50:25,380
Well, that windfields in Massachusetts. I don't know if we can drive our tractors in the Massachusetts.

613
00:50:26,060 --> 00:50:26,860
Good question.

614
00:50:26,860 --> 00:50:30,860
I don't know. Sometimes, that's interesting. Government is

615
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,680
I don't know how that's the point. You're telling the necessary, a

616
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:38,360
guy for drives from Massachusetts for the, what a piece of equipment comes out

617
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:43,460
here. Take scrap steel. It's coming out of Lawrence Maths. And still

618
00:50:43,460 --> 00:50:46,500
there's 160 dollars a time. Hey, you're not 140.

619
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:55,640
So that becomes 135 or because of the search urge or I don't know what I

620
00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:59,300
They don't know if it's a flat rate, sometimes it's usually a flat rate on a deal like

621
00:50:59,300 --> 00:50:59,660
that.

622
00:51:00,940 --> 00:51:06,260
If it's by the pound, sometimes by the pound, or by the time it might be added into it.

623
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,480
So, yeah, I would think it was almost a flat rate for fuel.

624
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:11,820
Maybe not.

625
00:51:12,140 --> 00:51:14,860
But the glass is my pet peeve.

626
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:16,000
I mean, we're the host town.

627
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,880
We shouldn't be paying anything in my personal opinion, but that's just an opinion.

628
00:51:21,740 --> 00:51:21,800
Right?

629
00:51:22,720 --> 00:51:23,720
We're the host town.

630
00:51:23,720 --> 00:51:29,740
Well, City of Hable, Mass don't pay a penny to get rid of their garbage because they host a mass brewing in their town

631
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:34,260
They've argued Martin. Yes, I'm from people

632
00:51:35,380 --> 00:51:37,720
Where there for five years best job

633
00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,860
Any other questions before we're I'm going to

634
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:51,400
I happened to take a couple notes from the meeting of the day. Thank you

635
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,300
It's good to see the other night.

636
00:51:53,620 --> 00:51:58,160
We do actually recycle at least from October 1st, 2024,

637
00:51:58,580 --> 00:52:00,440
to September 30th, 2025.

638
00:52:00,700 --> 00:52:05,480
It was 35,000 pounds of plastic.

639
00:52:07,240 --> 00:52:08,840
So, 35,000 pounds of plastic.

640
00:52:09,060 --> 00:52:10,580
That's 17 to the half tons.

641
00:52:11,220 --> 00:52:16,400
Which you've waited to 1,814 gallons of gas allegedly.

642
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:29,160
I think we discussed the fact that milk jugs are considered the number one plastic, all the

643
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:34,960
plastics they have a little number inside them so the premium one is number one and the

644
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:42,000
two through seven is basically not profitable at all. That's the downside and I think I could

645
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:46,640
wrong, but I think that the surcharges are 350 per ton.

646
00:52:48,260 --> 00:52:49,000
That's on trash.

647
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:51,800
Now I'm going to get to that.

648
00:52:52,060 --> 00:52:53,900
That's like a thorn in my side at the moment.

649
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:54,260
Right.

650
00:52:55,180 --> 00:52:55,900
That was it.

651
00:52:55,900 --> 00:52:56,300
Thank you.

652
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:57,620
All right.

653
00:52:57,840 --> 00:52:58,800
I had a note.

654
00:52:59,180 --> 00:52:59,500
OK.

655
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:04,600
I want to say in October, November, I'm on my Google feed of 5 AM.

656
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:10,240
And public radio posts, this article, how the state of New Hampshire is going to charge

657
00:53:10,240 --> 00:53:14,900
three dollars and fifty cents per ton of any trash going into a landfill or

658
00:53:15,580 --> 00:53:17,540
incinerator. Okay,

659
00:53:20,720 --> 00:53:23,860
I call Sean at seven o'clock he does nothing knows nothing

660
00:53:23,860 --> 00:53:30,960
about it. I give him the website and he's in awe. At twelve o'clock he calls me

661
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:34,140
laughing the state of the Hampshire finally sent the name you'll see on this is

662
00:53:34,140 --> 00:53:38,940
what they're going to do. So this is the deal. I'm only using an even number. This

663
00:53:38,940 --> 00:53:42,040
This number is just the number I'm putting out.

664
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:45,080
So if every 1,000 ton per quarter,

665
00:53:45,720 --> 00:53:47,360
we send the state $3,500.

666
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,100
So let's say it's $100 a ton.

667
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:58,600
So it's a $10,000 for $100,000, right?

668
00:53:58,780 --> 00:54:01,600
For 10,000 ton, yes, $100,000.

669
00:54:01,780 --> 00:54:05,140
So we send wheel operator a check for $100,000

670
00:54:05,140 --> 00:54:07,100
and plus another check for $3,500.

671
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:17,820
But now, we'll abrader must have to send that 3500 to the state in New Hampshire and this is all brand new.

672
00:54:17,980 --> 00:54:22,860
They're going to are right now. This is the first time we're doing it. April 1st was the end of the very first quarter.

673
00:54:24,540 --> 00:54:33,040
So there's a, according to Sean, there's a form we're going to fill out. So we'll abrader is going to send the public works gets to build from what I understand.

674
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:38,580
They'll go over the way tickets, and I don't know how they pay wheelibrator, whether it's

675
00:54:38,580 --> 00:54:43,800
Chuck or ACH, I don't have no idea how bills are paid, and then wheelibrator will send

676
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:49,760
the tax money to the state in New Hampshire, and as long as we got all our ducks in a row,

677
00:54:51,260 --> 00:54:57,400
I'm guessing it's going to be Sean or didn't, Christine, that will fill out a form to

678
00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,340
send to the state to get our reimbursement.

679
00:55:00,660 --> 00:55:09,080
And it's only from municipalities that in the state of New Hampshire, they're going to get the money back, because they want the money from out of state and they want to keep it.

680
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:09,460
Right, that's right.

681
00:55:09,500 --> 00:55:15,560
So it's an ingenious idea. If you were I tried that, they would be called embezzlement. You think about this.

682
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:16,120
There was.

683
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:23,720
And so anyways, long story short is, if you've been in business, I wasn't business for 24 years.

684
00:55:23,940 --> 00:55:28,940
In my vendor number, my vendor number never changed where I did business at any company.

685
00:55:29,700 --> 00:55:36,500
So maybe we can talk to the state where some hooks it and they can talk to someone in

686
00:55:36,500 --> 00:55:36,980
conquered.

687
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:42,100
There's no, there's no, I can't understand why when they punch in the hooks of

688
00:55:42,100 --> 00:55:44,920
vendor number, why it wouldn't come up exempt.

689
00:55:46,020 --> 00:55:48,340
That's less paperwork for three different parties.

690
00:55:50,300 --> 00:55:51,580
You guys understand what I'm saying?

691
00:55:53,040 --> 00:56:01,780
I mean, what they say when you program a computer keep it simple, the state's going to make millions, think about this.

692
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:10,320
Now, here's another thing. So they get out money. How quick do we get it back? I don't know, but how about the interest on that money?

693
00:56:12,620 --> 00:56:16,980
So Sean give me this thing last year, we between

694
00:56:16,980 --> 00:56:21,140
realibrator in the landfill, we did 5,038.10 tons.

695
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:27,060
So at 350 per ton, that would have been 17,633 tons and 35 cents.

696
00:56:27,540 --> 00:56:30,180
We don't lose that money, but we eventually get it back,

697
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,260
but I don't know how quick and I know we're on a type budget.

698
00:56:35,700 --> 00:56:37,460
So even at 3,500 or quarter.

699
00:56:45,250 --> 00:56:52,170
So you were telling your story and I was ashamed of myself to say, I could have sworn this was an out-of-state gig.

700
00:56:52,530 --> 00:56:55,070
No, I know that, but you alluded to it like last.

701
00:56:55,290 --> 00:56:56,870
So I'm like, well, maybe I totally forgot.

702
00:56:57,370 --> 00:56:58,890
No, because we did talk about it at a meeting.

703
00:56:59,650 --> 00:57:01,630
So, but I'm glad it stayed the same.

704
00:57:02,270 --> 00:57:03,070
Where is the deal?

705
00:57:03,410 --> 00:57:06,970
So they're not penalizing that they're charging extra for out-of-state.

706
00:57:07,550 --> 00:57:08,030
Don't think.

707
00:57:08,030 --> 00:57:11,630
I believe in New Hampshire, I definitely know this is a big landfill in Bethlehem.

708
00:57:12,170 --> 00:57:15,470
This is Rod Chester and is the incinerator in Boschwood.

709
00:57:16,230 --> 00:57:18,870
Those are the three that I know of. I'm sure there's more.

710
00:57:19,950 --> 00:57:24,210
You know, they just, I can understand keeping the out of state trash, but I don't think

711
00:57:24,210 --> 00:57:26,430
we should be putting up front and money.

712
00:57:27,470 --> 00:57:28,270
I could be wrong.

713
00:57:33,580 --> 00:57:40,820
Maybe we're trying to write it to our contact reps and the account hopes it in that.

714
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:42,720
Is it finalized or is it still in it?

715
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,540
Oh, yes, because I went and found a line.

716
00:57:45,580 --> 00:57:48,420
Sean showed me a bill and each bill will say,

717
00:57:48,420 --> 00:57:50,200
like, say, we brought in 10 ton.

718
00:57:50,580 --> 00:57:52,740
At 100, we'll just, I'm using 100 calls even number.

719
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:54,060
So the bill would be 1,000.

720
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:57,760
And then a $35 surcharge for the call to tax.

721
00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,660
It's a line item right on the bill.

722
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:03,620
You, so.

723
00:58:03,740 --> 00:58:04,000
OK.

724
00:58:04,540 --> 00:58:07,700
Thank you, I'd like to take the opportunity

725
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:12,880
to listen to the advice of the chair of the recycling

726
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:19,280
and transfer advisory boards so that we send a letter to our state reps, I'm not sure which

727
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:20,800
state reps may be all of them.

728
00:58:21,940 --> 00:58:25,860
Look, St. Must have some, right? This is affecting every single column, a state in New Hampshire

729
00:58:25,860 --> 00:58:27,700
that dumps in a New Hampshire facility.

730
00:58:28,340 --> 00:58:30,980
I think it makes sense.

731
00:58:31,580 --> 00:58:36,400
If we know the Senate bill, House bill, that's fine.

732
00:58:36,460 --> 00:58:41,280
No, it is a, again, I don't have that paper.

733
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:44,480
It actually just a group from the Department of Environmental Services.

734
00:58:47,420 --> 00:58:48,460
I want to say that's what it was.

735
00:58:48,660 --> 00:58:52,600
I don't have that paper in front of you, but he got it in the packet at the other night with us.

736
00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:54,760
But I do not have that with me, Andre.

737
00:58:58,070 --> 00:58:59,090
It's an ingenious idea.

738
00:58:59,290 --> 00:59:01,270
I'd like to get 350 a ton.

739
00:59:04,380 --> 00:59:06,040
Is this the searcher I drove over to?

740
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:07,020
Saudi was?

741
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:08,120
No, I have that.

742
00:59:08,300 --> 00:59:11,380
But there was another moment of list of folks involved in it.

743
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:17,380
It looks like it was a new fee established in the state budget that went into effect July 1st.

744
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:19,440
In the 2025?

745
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:25,780
And the fee started on January 1st of this year.

746
00:59:26,020 --> 00:59:29,280
But he has a thing they never notified anyone till December.

747
00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:30,740
It's classic.

748
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:39,000
Under the new law municipalities will be able to request quarterly reimbursement of these surcharge repayments upon some middle of the invoices in proof of payment.

749
00:59:39,660 --> 00:59:42,120
And that's a lot of money via interest potential.

750
00:59:44,700 --> 00:59:46,780
I remember when you talked about it.

751
00:59:47,180 --> 00:59:50,120
So, counselors, another option we would have available to us as a counselor.

752
00:59:51,660 --> 00:59:57,000
We can, we can motion to request it to turn a administrator or his appropriate staff.

753
00:59:57,620 --> 00:59:59,840
Make a contact our state representative.

754
01:00:01,180 --> 01:00:11,920
And what's in the middle of our opinion is, and that we'd like to, perhaps, hopefully, become exempt, or communities, be exempt from paying the money if it's going to get reimbursed.

755
01:00:12,700 --> 01:00:15,940
I think so. I want to make that. I motion, shimm it with that.

756
01:00:15,980 --> 01:00:17,260
I don't know if we could turn it to a constitution.

757
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,740
So I would did all that, but I would say that we could probably talk to some of our neighboring towns.

758
01:00:22,060 --> 01:00:28,260
And I think one voice versus five voices or six voices, could be advantageous, but if we have the same representation.

759
01:00:30,830 --> 01:00:32,150
Let's check thought.

760
01:00:32,810 --> 01:00:34,890
So we could have our time administrative.

761
01:00:35,370 --> 01:00:36,390
Do you want to check into this?

762
01:00:37,010 --> 01:00:39,230
Yeah, I mean it's motion.

763
01:00:40,090 --> 01:00:41,010
We're checking that.

764
01:00:41,010 --> 01:00:41,810
So what's your motion?

765
01:00:42,390 --> 01:00:42,850
Time administrative.

766
01:00:43,110 --> 01:00:43,510
OK.

767
01:00:44,010 --> 01:00:44,130
Yes.

768
01:00:44,210 --> 01:00:47,190
Well, actually, I just did what the chair said.

769
01:00:47,190 --> 01:00:51,030
And I wanted to add that potentially asking neighboring towns,

770
01:00:51,350 --> 01:00:52,270
what their thought is.

771
01:00:52,450 --> 01:00:53,290
And are they on board?

772
01:00:53,430 --> 01:00:56,670
I think five voices is better than one.

773
01:00:58,250 --> 01:00:59,670
So, Council can.

774
01:01:00,050 --> 01:01:00,710
Tell me in the first minute.

775
01:01:00,810 --> 01:01:01,150
All second.

776
01:01:01,570 --> 01:01:01,910
I'll.

777
01:01:03,650 --> 01:01:03,690
the first minute.

778
01:01:04,410 --> 01:01:07,650
Also, now I serve the slide.

779
01:01:07,650 --> 01:01:07,770
You see the council?

780
01:01:14,050 --> 01:01:14,250
You.

781
01:01:17,670 --> 01:01:17,730
Thirty.

782
01:01:17,730 --> 01:01:17,910
One would have your.

783
01:01:21,050 --> 01:01:23,430
one would have your.

784
01:01:23,430 --> 01:01:25,250
You have that.

785
01:01:25,650 --> 01:01:28,170
Conference of Smith and that wasn't second yet.

786
01:01:28,390 --> 01:01:29,410
Is anyone want a second now?

787
01:01:29,870 --> 01:01:30,790
Council of dual-hame.

788
01:01:31,450 --> 01:01:37,790
So for the questions or comments regarding that initiative, all those in favour of?

789
01:01:37,950 --> 01:01:38,650
We say aye.

790
01:01:40,230 --> 01:01:41,350
And any opposed?

791
01:01:42,630 --> 01:01:42,850
Okay.

792
01:01:43,270 --> 01:01:43,790
Mr. Bonnie.

793
01:01:44,230 --> 01:01:44,470
Thank you.

794
01:01:44,610 --> 01:01:46,090
If you have anything else, thank you for coming in.

795
01:01:46,510 --> 01:01:47,150
Hold on, sir.

796
01:01:48,330 --> 01:01:48,610
Please, please.

797
01:01:49,050 --> 01:01:50,410
So, right.

798
01:01:50,410 --> 01:02:02,410
I was on your committee for a while. I've missed multiple meetings. One was like a thanksgiving and then there was another one that you got a little tough. So I did reach out to find out how I can

799
01:02:03,690 --> 01:02:10,410
But I'd rather resign from because I didn't want to not represent and quickly I did ask

800
01:02:11,670 --> 01:02:13,410
Alex sitting next to me

801
01:02:14,230 --> 01:02:19,210
Councilor Walsh, like if since I knew that he had participated in the past, if that was

802
01:02:19,210 --> 01:02:23,650
something he would do and he said he would. So I would just like to formally say that

803
01:02:23,650 --> 01:02:27,970
and I do want to apologize that I did not make that I think I missed like the last four.

804
01:02:28,790 --> 01:02:31,930
We've only had two with the last four because we didn't have enough people.

805
01:02:32,270 --> 01:02:37,110
Oh, I did not. But again, some of that I was getting notified late, but it just hit

806
01:02:37,110 --> 01:02:42,830
conflict and it just worked out, but I know that, you know, Councilor Walsh

807
01:02:42,830 --> 01:02:46,290
definitely has an interest in it and he did say that he attended last meeting.

808
01:02:46,570 --> 01:02:53,250
So I mean, is that something that can we accept that formally now and point, we'll put

809
01:02:53,250 --> 01:02:55,570
on a agenda, we'll officially, we'll get a future at point.

810
01:02:55,650 --> 01:02:57,110
Councilor Walsh, I could have a next meeting.

811
01:02:57,490 --> 01:02:59,750
I have no say who's on, who's on is not.

812
01:03:00,290 --> 01:03:00,690
Correct.

813
01:03:00,870 --> 01:03:01,510
You don't.

814
01:03:01,590 --> 01:03:03,170
And I just want to bring it up.

815
01:03:03,270 --> 01:03:07,090
But you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,

816
01:03:07,090 --> 01:03:13,730
Which I have many opinions we didn't ask you are a pin and I'll get it

817
01:03:16,110 --> 01:03:22,690
Okay, we good thank you very much sure. I know all the trash questions. Okay. Thank you. Thank you

818
01:03:24,310 --> 01:03:26,190
Okay gentleman contours

819
01:03:30,090 --> 01:03:35,670
Consent agenda. We have two items on a consent agenda. I'm going to suggest that we do 111 separate

820
01:03:35,670 --> 01:03:45,610
We have a motion for the consent agenda, we have a motion number 11.1.

821
01:03:49,970 --> 01:03:50,530
Mr. Chair.

822
01:03:51,010 --> 01:03:51,550
Councilor.

823
01:03:51,630 --> 01:03:54,270
I move to accept the donation from Hooks of Cornest Foundation

824
01:03:54,270 --> 01:03:57,300
to the Police Department in the amount of $1,000 per RSA,

825
01:03:58,130 --> 01:04:02,570
31.95-B paragraph, three, some paragraph B.

826
01:04:02,930 --> 01:04:03,710
I'll second it.

827
01:04:03,710 --> 01:04:04,890
Thank you, gentlemen.

828
01:04:05,630 --> 01:04:06,930
Any comments in either of you?

829
01:04:06,930 --> 01:04:08,250
We'll start when we're still up here.

830
01:04:08,430 --> 01:04:08,970
No questions?

831
01:04:09,330 --> 01:04:11,050
Thank you once again to Corners.

832
01:04:11,450 --> 01:04:11,550
Yes.

833
01:04:11,590 --> 01:04:11,710
Whatever.

834
01:04:11,830 --> 01:04:12,190
Thank you.

835
01:04:12,370 --> 01:04:13,550
Go out as normal.

836
01:04:13,990 --> 01:04:14,370
To vote.

837
01:04:14,570 --> 01:04:17,490
So, councilor, after anything you got to add or to our question.

838
01:04:17,750 --> 01:04:18,550
Any other councilors?

839
01:04:18,650 --> 01:04:19,710
Any questions regarding that?

840
01:04:19,750 --> 01:04:21,690
Donation from the hopes of Corners.

841
01:04:22,010 --> 01:04:24,590
And then being said, we'll take a roll call.

842
01:04:24,830 --> 01:04:25,290
No, excuse me.

843
01:04:25,450 --> 01:04:25,690
Roll call.

844
01:04:25,830 --> 01:04:26,270
Please vote.

845
01:04:26,590 --> 01:04:28,210
I was very pleased to say aye.

846
01:04:29,710 --> 01:04:30,330
And opposed?

847
01:04:32,610 --> 01:04:38,190
It was 11-2 is a donation of land from in Cat Properties.

848
01:04:40,630 --> 01:04:41,710
I'm sorry.

849
01:04:41,890 --> 01:04:44,890
I mentioned in our last meeting.

850
01:04:45,290 --> 01:04:47,840
And we believe the paperwork is all in line.

851
01:04:48,610 --> 01:04:52,570
And if there's any questions, it's to property at the...

852
01:04:52,570 --> 01:04:57,410
At the beginning of a legend's drive off of Route 3 that used to have the sign.

853
01:04:57,450 --> 01:04:58,370
Still has the sign.

854
01:04:58,490 --> 01:04:59,510
Still has the sign.

855
01:04:59,710 --> 01:04:59,870
.

856
01:04:59,870 --> 01:04:59,950
.

857
01:04:59,950 --> 01:04:59,970
.

858
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:00,400
All right. I want to say a few minutes, where I can't remove the control.

859
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:01,940
Do you have the mandate, if you give it to a motion?

860
01:05:02,420 --> 01:05:04,260
I do, we talked about this a couple of times.

861
01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:04,980
Yes, we did.

862
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:09,300
Yeah, I'm move to accept the parcel of land donated by Anquet Properties Incorporated,

863
01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:15,560
which is map 25-Lot 59, a .95 acre, lot to the town of Huxett.

864
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:19,120
I think it's not going to let him get a second.

865
01:05:19,380 --> 01:05:20,300
Was that a hand for a second?

866
01:05:20,540 --> 01:05:20,780
It's a consequence.

867
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:21,360
Yeah.

868
01:05:21,700 --> 01:05:22,720
Two other people said it.

869
01:05:23,180 --> 01:05:27,720
We have anyone who put down a young lady for a second and we'll get to go and we'll

870
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:30,300
look either one of you conscious of that motion in the first.

871
01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:32,160
I heard you both said it in counselor.

872
01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:34,220
I think I saw the ten administrators hand up.

873
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:35,420
I'm going to yield my time to that.

874
01:05:35,420 --> 01:05:36,320
I was going to share with you.

875
01:05:37,380 --> 01:05:38,120
I was going to share with you.

876
01:05:38,660 --> 01:05:40,640
I was going to share with you.

877
01:05:40,700 --> 01:05:41,160
I was going to share with you.

878
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:41,280
Yes.

879
01:05:41,900 --> 01:05:44,700
So back in December, the council.

880
01:05:44,700 --> 01:05:48,120
I've made a council aware of the offer from Incan,

881
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:49,720
with regard to that piece of part.

882
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,940
The piece of land on the corner of Legends Drive in Group 3

883
01:05:52,940 --> 01:05:56,300
currently has the sign for Legends Golf on it.

884
01:05:57,060 --> 01:06:00,620
And they also mentioned that not only did I want to offer it,

885
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:04,700
but they're willing to take, remove the sign that's on there.

886
01:06:04,780 --> 01:06:09,160
And that's only thing I would offer to the council to consider.

887
01:06:09,780 --> 01:06:13,260
And its motion is to the removal of the golf sign.

888
01:06:13,260 --> 01:06:24,680
But electricity, hookups, and everything will remain so whatever we want to utilize that site for, it will be able to provide electricity to it.

889
01:06:26,220 --> 01:06:40,520
So again, my only concern with regard to this parcel was that there's no environmental issues that we are going to be inherited and the owner of the property indicated that there are none.

890
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:44,400
you know, that it would be free to come and

891
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:50,580
by again, if the council wanted these time removed, then that could be part of its motion.

892
01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,320
I trust me to do it.

893
01:06:55,580 --> 01:06:57,040
Do we need it removed?

894
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:58,640
Is this something we could use?

895
01:07:00,350 --> 01:07:02,290
It doesn't exist any longer.

896
01:07:03,030 --> 01:07:06,630
So the same election is a soft wouldn't do any good, but the,

897
01:07:06,630 --> 01:07:07,230
what's what I'm thinking.

898
01:07:07,570 --> 01:07:08,330
Foundation for this time.

899
01:07:08,330 --> 01:07:08,790
I understand.

900
01:07:10,110 --> 01:07:10,470
Some of them.

901
01:07:11,170 --> 01:07:17,690
the foundation and upright or something that if you want you take it down and get rid of it

902
01:07:17,690 --> 01:07:20,530
it's gone but if you find your use for it after that you say, you say, if we kept that

903
01:07:20,530 --> 01:07:23,470
so I don't know if it'd be necessarily a rush to get rid of it.

904
01:07:24,870 --> 01:07:25,670
Question comment?

905
01:07:26,510 --> 01:07:29,050
Could we ask somebody that knows better?

906
01:07:29,270 --> 01:07:34,250
I'm assuming if the electrical's hooked up to it then it would be kept somehow.

907
01:07:35,050 --> 01:07:42,990
So, if we go to put a new sign on likely we would have to take that down any help but I don't know.

908
01:07:43,070 --> 01:07:51,650
So, who is a meter in pedestal there that belongs with the property and that is applied for a metapole by every source and it is metered.

909
01:07:51,710 --> 01:07:55,950
However, so at some point in time the metering would have to be transferred to the town of Huxit.

910
01:07:55,950 --> 01:08:03,070
There would be no charge if you're not using electricity, but there's a monthly fee, which is light, slight for having it there.

911
01:08:03,670 --> 01:08:07,110
So you could have them take the meter and they blank it out.

912
01:08:07,650 --> 01:08:13,050
But you want to keep that pedestal there, because that has to be, if that was to be replaced,

913
01:08:13,790 --> 01:08:15,410
I wasn't interested in that to replace it.

914
01:08:15,610 --> 01:08:19,790
So my advice to having sent a couple of days at that company would be to leave it.

915
01:08:19,790 --> 01:08:25,090
We move the meter until such time as we want to meter to power, but we definitely leave that pedestal there.

916
01:08:25,810 --> 01:08:28,290
Yeah, no, I like correct, but not the sign, right?

917
01:08:28,390 --> 01:08:29,230
We don't need the sign.

918
01:08:29,410 --> 01:08:31,270
We don't need the, I don't like the top of the masking.

919
01:08:31,670 --> 01:08:31,710
Yes.

920
01:08:31,930 --> 01:08:33,350
If anything, it confuses people.

921
01:08:33,610 --> 01:08:34,450
I thought the police isn't there.

922
01:08:34,450 --> 01:08:36,470
So that was what I was saying.

923
01:08:37,010 --> 01:08:40,490
So we picked down the sign, or I think we should just say we take it out.

924
01:08:40,510 --> 01:08:41,490
Yeah, that would take it out.

925
01:08:42,810 --> 01:08:44,490
So I think we need to stipulate that, though.

926
01:08:44,530 --> 01:08:46,450
Because if we don't say leave the upright, it's going to be gone.

927
01:08:46,930 --> 01:08:47,970
We're going to be a push-over.

928
01:08:48,110 --> 01:08:50,350
We're going to come up to some benefit to the town of the way to date.

929
01:08:50,410 --> 01:08:52,750
If not, we can take it down for scrap metal.

930
01:08:53,670 --> 01:08:53,790
Yeah.

931
01:08:53,790 --> 01:09:00,710
I think it just takes off this sign part of it, you know, the stuff that we feel that has some value.

932
01:09:01,010 --> 01:09:08,110
But we have, I have received a couple of complaints about one of that sign coming down from residents.

933
01:09:09,090 --> 01:09:09,830
Is that what you're reading?

934
01:09:10,790 --> 01:09:11,350
Which conclusion?

935
01:09:12,150 --> 01:09:13,550
Yeah, a less confusion on that itself.

936
01:09:13,970 --> 01:09:19,090
So do we need to adopt the, the verbiage of leaving the, the stance in our upright?

937
01:09:19,090 --> 01:09:25,620
I mean, the fact that comes with a problem, at this point we probably have to do anything.

938
01:09:25,620 --> 01:09:27,100
Except it.

939
01:09:27,420 --> 01:09:28,140
Except it.

940
01:09:28,460 --> 01:09:32,220
And again, if we accept it with the sign as it is, then it would just be our responsibility.

941
01:09:32,620 --> 01:09:36,540
At some point in the future, but they're willing to take down the sign out.

942
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:37,940
There are portions of it.

943
01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:41,560
If we say take off the golf ball and the, and the wrapping.

944
01:09:42,220 --> 01:09:44,480
I'm pretty sure whatever's left there will be left.

945
01:09:45,140 --> 01:09:47,980
But I think the willing to do whatever we would want to do.

946
01:09:47,980 --> 01:09:52,040
The way you can sign could become someone's member of the area, someone might want that.

947
01:09:53,020 --> 01:09:54,080
Where's the Heritage Commission?

948
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:55,000
Where are they?

949
01:09:55,440 --> 01:09:59,960
The Heritage Commission doesn't have space for accepting donations of sudden.

950
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:25,060
So it's okay, you don't want it. The original motion in council is as to accept the property, leave and as is in our discussion, led to removing the actual identifier for legends, which is the top of the sign and leave the rest. And if that's acceptable, that's all recorded. We could vote on at this point.

951
01:10:25,060 --> 01:10:28,820
and travel from there. Any other questions or discussions?

952
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:33,260
Okay, then cost with all of those who are in favor of the motion.

953
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:36,600
Please signify by saying aye. Aye.

954
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:37,860
Aye. And those opposed?

955
01:10:38,700 --> 01:10:40,500
Okay, that takes care of that.

956
01:10:40,500 --> 01:10:42,260
I think we should thank them.

957
01:10:42,820 --> 01:10:43,120
Thank you.

958
01:10:43,440 --> 01:10:44,100
Thank you.

959
01:10:44,260 --> 01:10:45,740
Always turn this through the time.

960
01:10:46,460 --> 01:10:47,000
What's up?

961
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:48,120
They're always turn this through the time.

962
01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:53,880
So our next order of business is an nomination in appointment, nominating.

963
01:11:25,180 --> 01:11:31,100
to the term on the Heritage Commission June 30, 2029.

964
01:11:34,340 --> 01:11:35,520
And I know she's here.

965
01:11:35,580 --> 01:11:37,320
I don't know if she wants to add anything to it.

966
01:11:37,500 --> 01:11:38,620
We kind of know her background.

967
01:11:45,270 --> 01:11:47,790
Any other questions from any members of the council?

968
01:11:49,150 --> 01:11:53,610
Okay, then all those in favor of that nomination, please say aye.

969
01:11:54,730 --> 01:11:55,750
and you want to post.

970
01:11:56,490 --> 01:11:58,110
And thank you.

971
01:11:58,110 --> 01:11:59,110
Thank you very much.

972
01:11:59,210 --> 01:12:01,850
We need some here to commission members, so.

973
01:12:01,970 --> 01:12:02,770
Thank you.

974
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:04,580
Okay.

975
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,820
Councilor Sir, our next item is 141 in.

976
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:08,720
Excuse me, Mr.

977
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,800
I'm not sure if we want to put it on for the next meeting.

978
01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:17,040
But I was directed by the.

979
01:12:17,740 --> 01:12:22,320
Planning Board to request that the council nominate in a point.

980
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,100
Michael Somers to the New Hampshire

981
01:12:25,100 --> 01:12:27,600
Southern New Hampshire

982
01:12:28,220 --> 01:12:28,820
Planning Commission.

983
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:29,720
Planning Commission.

984
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:38,480
So I'm not sure what that term is, so if we can put that in for the next round of nominations.

985
01:12:39,860 --> 01:12:40,340
We ended.

986
01:12:40,500 --> 01:12:41,380
Did you get that?

987
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:42,380
Thank you.

988
01:12:42,640 --> 01:12:44,200
Senator, no action this evening.

989
01:12:44,580 --> 01:12:46,060
Thank you very, very good.

990
01:12:46,500 --> 01:12:47,360
Very much.

991
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:48,100
Thank you.

992
01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:48,920
All right.

993
01:12:48,940 --> 01:12:49,760
Your councilors.

994
01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:59,140
I didn't number 14 when electric was supposed to bid Ben, are you going to come up and explain what happened here and why we're visiting with us again?

995
01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:00,680
Thank you.

996
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:06,300
Good evening counselors.

997
01:13:07,660 --> 01:13:14,720
So last meeting two weeks ago I was here for one agenda item or one of three for the electrical support bid.

998
01:13:16,100 --> 01:13:20,960
Somehow we got to mix up in the contractor names that we wanted to award the contract to.

999
01:13:21,660 --> 01:13:33,440
So, I am here to recommend that you rescind your previous, what's it called, the motion, thank you.

1000
01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:38,960
And award this to the correct little biter for this.

1001
01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:39,920
Oh, great.

1002
01:13:40,300 --> 01:13:40,700
Oh, great.

1003
01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:41,420
Oh, great.

1004
01:13:42,340 --> 01:13:44,960
So we have to do this one at a time.

1005
01:13:48,860 --> 01:13:52,560
I don't recall the name of that, but we can all have.

1006
01:13:53,220 --> 01:13:56,120
It is on page 52 of your packet.

1007
01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:59,560
It's a recent original motion awarding the electrical support

1008
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:03,640
bid to the Nesco electric with INCOTI,

1009
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:09,460
DBAIC electric as backup with the option to terminate contract

1010
01:14:09,460 --> 01:14:12,440
with the company that does not need to be set as ready to work.

1011
01:14:12,440 --> 01:14:13,880
So moved.

1012
01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:14,280
Okay.

1013
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:14,880
So moved.

1014
01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:15,880
Second.

1015
01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:17,700
We have an ocean.

1016
01:14:17,820 --> 01:14:18,420
We have a second.

1017
01:14:19,200 --> 01:14:23,440
Either if you have any question from Ben or for Andre regarding that.

1018
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:25,320
I'm glad you caught it.

1019
01:14:25,320 --> 01:14:26,220
Any other conversation?

1020
01:14:26,500 --> 01:14:26,640
Yeah.

1021
01:14:26,900 --> 01:14:27,940
It happens.

1022
01:14:29,260 --> 01:14:29,360
Yeah.

1023
01:14:29,460 --> 01:14:30,120
It was a mistake.

1024
01:14:30,420 --> 01:14:30,720
No question.

1025
01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:31,160
It happens.

1026
01:14:31,480 --> 01:14:31,500
Okay.

1027
01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:33,360
No further questions.

1028
01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:34,500
We're regarding that.

1029
01:14:35,460 --> 01:14:38,380
All those in favor of that motion.

1030
01:14:38,580 --> 01:14:40,400
Please signify by saying aye.

1031
01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:41,120
Aye.

1032
01:14:41,440 --> 01:14:41,560
Aye.

1033
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:42,560
A post?

1034
01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:45,540
Okay.

1035
01:14:46,380 --> 01:14:46,720
Thank you.

1036
01:14:47,020 --> 01:14:47,280
Controarch.

1037
01:14:47,420 --> 01:14:52,020
Option two award, the electrical support bid to Oak Ridge Electrical LLC is primary contractor

1038
01:14:52,020 --> 01:14:58,000
with EMPODI, as a secondary contractor, with the option to turn away the contract, that

1039
01:14:58,000 --> 01:14:58,540
would come to the end.

1040
01:14:58,540 --> 01:14:59,600
That does meet this as well.

1041
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:10,800
Second, with an option to terminate contract with the committee, but does not meet satisfactory

1042
01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:15,040
roll. That's what you're saying. And aye, second.

1043
01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:21,580
Two letters. Okay, council, either of you, you motion, any comment or discussion?

1044
01:15:22,280 --> 01:15:29,640
No, I just I believe we did a roll call vote last week. We did do another one. We didn't need a roll call on a shirt or we shined

1045
01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:35,740
No, we didn't we didn't we don't need one for that dollar amount of that contract. So roll call please

1046
01:15:35,740 --> 01:15:47,000

01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,780
Sure. I'm sorry. Thank you. Thank you, Ben.

1049
01:15:59,960 --> 01:16:06,580
Councilor. Before we because I believe we're going to give the next one till the end.

1050
01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:12,760
I do. Yes. Yeah. I do have one more thing under old business that I'd like to bring up.

1051
01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:15,380
I said very simple.

1052
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:16,960
I love to do that.

1053
01:16:19,220 --> 01:16:20,020
Oh my.

1054
01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:20,480
Good morning.

1055
01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:22,200
Good morning.

1056
01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:22,780
Good morning.

1057
01:16:23,180 --> 01:16:23,260
Good morning.

1058
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:24,660
All right.

1059
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:26,100
So let me find it though.

1060
01:16:26,180 --> 01:16:27,660
Is it a motion that's on the table?

1061
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:29,660
That was table at a previous meeting?

1062
01:16:29,940 --> 01:16:30,340
Nope.

1063
01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:31,920
Hold on.

1064
01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:34,100
I just got a lot of tabs going on here.

1065
01:16:34,740 --> 01:16:34,880
Okay.

1066
01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:40,160
So last time we discussed the

1067
01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:46,420
a plaque, thinking the Marseille family at the Naughty Park, and we were trying to remember

1068
01:16:46,420 --> 01:16:52,380
because we thought we had voted on this or said to do it, I did find in a subcommittee

1069
01:16:52,380 --> 01:17:00,880
report from October 8th that

1070
01:17:04,140 --> 01:17:09,580
it says for Councillor Walsek had said, they spoke with the

1071
01:17:09,580 --> 01:17:13,060
chair of Parks and Rack Advisory Committee today, the committee would like to explore

1072
01:17:13,060 --> 01:17:19,640
getting a plaque together to Macy's industries and Bruce Thomas for the roles in the foot

1073
01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:24,840
bridge at Nonty Park. But I didn't find anything else concrete except for exploring that.

1074
01:17:24,980 --> 01:17:30,280
So I didn't know if we wanted to bring that up. And again, give it our blessing to go forward and do that.

1075
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:34,490
the parks and wrecks of Joe.

1076
01:17:36,370 --> 01:17:39,030
Because we get the parks and wrecks of Joe.

1077
01:17:39,570 --> 01:17:41,650
We'll be at the name of these.

1078
01:17:42,130 --> 01:17:43,710
It was parks and wrecks of Joe.

1079
01:17:44,570 --> 01:17:48,590
We do the approach to having that come up with an experience

1080
01:17:48,590 --> 01:17:49,490
and actually eating as an agenda.

1081
01:17:50,770 --> 01:17:52,270
Give us some sugar.

1082
01:17:52,570 --> 01:17:54,250
As long as it's done before next October.

1083
01:17:55,990 --> 01:17:57,370
So that would be nice.

1084
01:17:58,070 --> 01:17:59,430
She's always got her hands moving.

1085
01:17:59,430 --> 01:18:03,190
I was going shopping and I think we'll make sure that it's on your agenda for the next time.

1086
01:18:03,570 --> 01:18:05,710
I like the last item you asked me about.

1087
01:18:07,010 --> 01:18:12,230
If I could just ask, what was that, what date was that on?

1088
01:18:12,750 --> 01:18:17,270
It was in the minutes of October 8th.

1089
01:18:17,490 --> 01:18:18,290
Thank you.

1090
01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:21,220
Yeah, I was at that meeting.

1091
01:18:25,070 --> 01:18:25,990
I was at that meeting.

1092
01:18:26,210 --> 01:18:30,930
It was Parks and Rec meeting and we brought it up in person here.

1093
01:18:30,930 --> 01:18:34,370
We there was a discussion at that meeting that led to

1094
01:18:35,830 --> 01:18:38,930
The recommendation that was made directly by

1095
01:18:40,110 --> 01:18:41,150
Andy Janos

1096
01:18:44,590 --> 01:18:47,090
Recommend the mercy of our public meeting we had here

1097
01:18:49,050 --> 01:18:55,110
So in public it was during the parks and you'll update so you'll so this will be an adjunct or I

1098
01:18:55,810 --> 01:18:56,330
Council

1099
01:19:00,330 --> 01:19:01,630
Okay, then I

1100
01:19:01,630 --> 01:19:03,790
That it for you

1101
01:19:06,530 --> 01:19:08,710
So I'm going to be asking around here a little bit.

1102
01:19:08,870 --> 01:19:13,370
I want to get, sort of, last thing we have to do is to contract and come out and vote and

1103
01:19:13,370 --> 01:19:14,490
that I'll be in to it.

1104
01:19:16,570 --> 01:19:18,710
So we have a couple of items here.

1105
01:19:18,870 --> 01:19:29,830
I'm going to submit to ordnance number 002651 and if we there's a motion for that, who's taking the lead

1106
01:19:29,830 --> 01:19:30,230
on that?

1107
01:19:30,230 --> 01:19:36,250
Well, actually, I'm going to introduce Lee Ann McLaughlin, just as part of a recommendation

1108
01:19:36,250 --> 01:19:43,090
made by the Highway Safety Committee on a couple of projects that it had reviewed as a

1109
01:19:43,090 --> 01:19:43,370
committee.

1110
01:19:44,070 --> 01:19:46,990
And the resulting action is what you'll be hearing tonight.

1111
01:19:47,510 --> 01:19:51,650
And Councillor Smith, feel free to jump in as we go through this as well as he's part

1112
01:19:51,650 --> 01:19:53,130
of the Highway Safety Advisory Board.

1113
01:19:54,150 --> 01:19:59,430
So it has been brought to the Highway Safety Advisory Board that the Police Department

1114
01:19:59,710 --> 01:19:59,890
Thank you.

1115
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:09,060
Based on our current no-through trucking verbiage in the ordinance at the moment, which is a quick little paragraph, it's hard to enforce.

1116
01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:19,700
So we have created a amendment to the current ordinance as well as an adoption of a new ordinance to help enforce that.

1117
01:20:20,620 --> 01:20:27,440
So that's basically what we're looking to do. This ordinance has been reviewed by the Highway Safety Advisory Board, the Police Department and Public Works.

1118
01:20:27,440 --> 01:20:38,060
So this first is the first step. This is the introduction for review and we're just moving it to a public hearing and the RSA requires actually two public hearings for the ordinances.

1119
01:20:38,700 --> 01:20:45,060
I know town council rules the procedures only say one but the RSA does say two so we'll be going forward to public hearings.

1120
01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:53,300
I believe Grant McGregor also brought that up before we were talking about another ordinance that the procedure is two public hearings.

1121
01:20:53,300 --> 01:20:59,860
So at some point when we're looking at rules of procedure, when you guys do annually, we'll probably make that suggestion to them and that as well.

1122
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:10,500
So again, we're going to page 75, and I'm seeing a parking prohibition on a half way down the page.

1123
01:21:11,040 --> 01:21:21,360
Is our ordinance that we came up with a couple of years ago in action to that car carrier that was parking up by the school bus stop?

1124
01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:26,220
Yes, for weekends and a ton of weekends, overnight, and all that, there's nothing.

1125
01:21:27,060 --> 01:21:33,500
I don't know off the top of my head when that was came into effect, but Councillor Sullivan

1126
01:21:33,500 --> 01:21:34,800
is in grievance with you.

1127
01:21:35,020 --> 01:21:35,680
So I'm going to go.

1128
01:21:36,300 --> 01:21:36,700
I'm going to go.

1129
01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:43,140
I think that I do know that individual, that, uh, one of the individuals that kept me

1130
01:21:43,140 --> 01:21:47,520
arrested at, moves out of that neighborhood, but there's one that was right across the street

1131
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:51,060
that I was talking about, so we're ongoing with this, that worked.

1132
01:21:52,020 --> 01:21:53,140
Yeah, that's great, awesome.

1133
01:21:55,000 --> 01:22:00,200
And if we have ordinances and this difficulty for us to enforce them, we should certainly

1134
01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:07,100
make those things, because I have an ordinance if we really can enforce them, so I think this

1135
01:22:07,100 --> 01:22:12,440
is a good idea to tighten up that language to give the police officers the department more

1136
01:22:12,440 --> 01:22:17,080
ability to enforce the ordinances, so I don't know if Mr.

1137
01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:24,120
if the advisory board member would like to offer that motion to, I think they'll probably

1138
01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:24,600
appropriate.

1139
01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:27,040
If that's all right with you?

1140
01:22:27,060 --> 01:22:27,280
Yes.

1141
01:22:27,620 --> 01:22:27,820
Okay.

1142
01:22:28,540 --> 01:22:29,360
All right.

1143
01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:30,620
I'd like to make a motion.

1144
01:22:31,140 --> 01:22:33,700
A motion to move the amendment to ordinance.

1145
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:36,080
Number 0 0 dash 26.

1146
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:40,240
Signage regulations for the town roads and the new proposed ordinance.

1147
01:22:40,500 --> 01:22:44,120
Number 26 dash 0 1 no through trucking to a public hearing.

1148
01:22:44,120 --> 01:22:46,040
on April 22nd,

1149
01:22:46,300 --> 01:22:47,060
2026.

1150
01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:50,060
I'll second it.

1151
01:22:50,200 --> 01:22:53,040
Should we indicate to the first public hearing?

1152
01:22:53,040 --> 01:22:54,860
You should say the first public hearing.

1153
01:22:54,940 --> 01:22:55,060
Okay.

1154
01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:56,820
To the first public hearing.

1155
01:22:56,860 --> 01:22:57,160
Okay.

1156
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:58,600
One of two.

1157
01:22:58,920 --> 01:22:59,220
Consciousness.

1158
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:00,040
You made the motion.

1159
01:23:00,480 --> 01:23:01,000
Anything.

1160
01:23:01,500 --> 01:23:02,120
Com it.

1161
01:23:03,580 --> 01:23:05,280
You made the first motion.

1162
01:23:05,420 --> 01:23:05,660
Yes.

1163
01:23:06,900 --> 01:23:08,300
Who seconded that?

1164
01:23:08,480 --> 01:23:08,860
I did.

1165
01:23:09,020 --> 01:23:09,800
That was okay.

1166
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:11,140
So either of you,

1167
01:23:11,300 --> 01:23:11,880
quite first.

1168
01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:12,360
Definitely.

1169
01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:14,760
And so, you know, we talked about some things.

1170
01:23:14,940 --> 01:23:16,560
There was something I did bring for it.

1171
01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:18,660
I asked him to live on a no-through trucking street,

1172
01:23:18,860 --> 01:23:22,040
and we have, I can tell you, I probably have that 20.

1173
01:23:22,940 --> 01:23:27,840
Better, large vehicles through trucking on Martin's fair road.

1174
01:23:28,060 --> 01:23:30,420
Obviously, we have an issue here on Main Street as well.

1175
01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:33,040
We have signage, and we're just trying to figure out

1176
01:23:33,040 --> 01:23:36,220
how do we enforce it, and then dealing with chief sergeant.

1177
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:38,440
He just said, you know, there's only so much we can do,

1178
01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:41,260
because the original ordinance was very vague.

1179
01:23:41,260 --> 01:23:46,280
And we don't want to start wasting time and chasing things that turn into, like an expense.

1180
01:23:46,480 --> 01:23:54,380
So that's why we ended up, you know, we took the time to go to other towns and not so much go to them.

1181
01:23:54,500 --> 01:24:00,940
But figure out some of the words they use and then put she put it together to make this happen.

1182
01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:02,500
Thank you.

1183
01:24:02,640 --> 01:24:04,460
Councilor Walshaku, second aid.

1184
01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:05,860
I'm nothing bad.

1185
01:24:06,060 --> 01:24:07,420
Thank you very much to our attention.

1186
01:24:10,470 --> 01:24:15,990
So the next step will be our next meeting, it will be the first public, it will be on the agenda, for the first public hearing.

1187
01:24:17,230 --> 01:24:19,690
Okay, so do we need to vote on that since I'm able to vote on it.

1188
01:24:21,550 --> 01:24:24,950
So all of us in favor of that emotion, please say aye.

1189
01:24:26,550 --> 01:24:27,490
And any opposed.

1190
01:24:28,350 --> 01:24:28,590
Okay.

1191
01:24:28,670 --> 01:24:29,370
Thank you again.

1192
01:24:29,710 --> 01:24:30,770
Thank you for the support.

1193
01:24:31,770 --> 01:24:32,270
Very happy.

1194
01:24:33,570 --> 01:24:34,030
All right.

1195
01:24:34,190 --> 01:24:35,010
So we have a minute.

1196
01:24:35,010 --> 01:24:39,560
I didn't have 15 two counselors and it's back up information first on

1197
01:24:40,670 --> 01:24:46,670
82 83 a detailed rate change for police chief in or a captain

1198
01:24:47,250 --> 01:24:50,480
Now we'll take a motion from anyone who's willing to make it

1199
01:25:10,570 --> 01:25:30,010
I would like to move to accept the new verbiage, replace the old in the Huxitown personal plan under police, details, on page 14 to read as follows.

1200
01:25:30,010 --> 01:25:33,970
Data rate, please department, non-union, sworn,

1201
01:25:35,130 --> 01:25:38,370
detail rates, page, non-union, sworn employees shall be

1202
01:25:38,370 --> 01:25:42,950
70 dollars per hour, effective July 1st, 2026.

1203
01:25:43,850 --> 01:25:46,370
And the event, the detail extends eight hours.

1204
01:25:47,010 --> 01:25:51,010
The employee will be paid at one and half times

1205
01:25:51,010 --> 01:25:54,310
the detail rate every hour, worked after eight hours.

1206
01:25:55,470 --> 01:25:58,090
I'll second it.

1207
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:01,760
Second.

1208
01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:03,140
Second.

1209
01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:03,620
Second.

1210
01:26:03,860 --> 01:26:04,020
Second.

1211
01:26:04,020 --> 01:26:04,240
Thank you.

1212
01:26:05,260 --> 01:26:07,020
I have a question or anything.

1213
01:26:07,180 --> 01:26:07,840
You made a motion.

1214
01:26:08,980 --> 01:26:09,580
Councilor.

1215
01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:09,980
Okay.

1216
01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:11,120
Councilor.

1217
01:26:11,420 --> 01:26:16,360
I think we've asked this question before.

1218
01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:18,560
But how often.

1219
01:26:19,260 --> 01:26:24,160
How often does the police chief in captain do detail duty?

1220
01:26:24,860 --> 01:26:33,300
That's pretty infrequent. I can tell you the only time I ever do it is for parades or for light up the village or one of those things that nobody else signs up for

1221
01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:40,060
So it's pretty infrequent. I know the captain he is also infrequent. He'll work the voting most years.

1222
01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:42,160
Yeah, but that's a detail ray.

1223
01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:43,280
Yes.

1224
01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:44,500
No one worry never leaves.

1225
01:26:45,020 --> 01:26:52,980
Yeah, so those are really the only ones we do and the only reason I'm asking for this is because the unions are increasing their rates

1226
01:26:52,980 --> 01:27:00,240
So it's just a stay in line with the other people that I get paid for these details in our department.

1227
01:27:00,440 --> 01:27:01,220
That's all.

1228
01:27:02,100 --> 01:27:03,720
So when I'm sorry.

1229
01:27:04,320 --> 01:27:05,520
This is a follow-up.

1230
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:14,820
When it's a company that is asked for a detail in the company pays array in that effectively pays the officer.

1231
01:27:15,180 --> 01:27:20,560
But when it's voting or light up the village or something, is that the talent paying?

1232
01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:26,340
It's paid out of the detail fund, which currently sits at about $350,000, a lot of money in there right now.

1233
01:27:26,720 --> 01:27:30,460
The town is working on trying to reclaim some of that through 20%.

1234
01:27:30,460 --> 01:27:35,860
So when we charge a detail to a company, we charge them $77 as an administrative fee.

1235
01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:44,000
Now that our officers are getting $70, seven of that, the town gets 20% of that.

1236
01:27:44,380 --> 01:27:45,900
So I thought we talked about upping that.

1237
01:27:45,900 --> 01:27:53,880
There you could up it. The problem is we need to up the actual amount. We charge the company right back at this point and I know that

1238
01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:57,920
Christine was here. I think the last time and I don't want to put words back in her mouth because I don't forget exactly what I said

1239
01:27:57,920 --> 01:28:03,500
But I think the idea was to try to have that fun kind of reduce itself a little bit before we did that

1240
01:28:05,500 --> 01:28:06,380
But again

1241
01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:13,380
The problem is is that we have $350,000 in there and we're only allowed to spend it on fuel

1242
01:28:13,380 --> 01:28:16,020
maintenance for the detail vehicle as well as the detail.

1243
01:28:16,020 --> 01:28:20,440
No, I understood when I when I got here was a hundred percent had to be spent on

1244
01:28:20,440 --> 01:28:25,980
detail related items and then we switched it to I forget it was a 80, 20, 20, 20, 20.

1245
01:28:26,060 --> 01:28:31,080
I advocated that to be 50, 50, 50 if you recall, but I lost that battle.

1246
01:28:31,380 --> 01:28:35,520
I'll still advocate for it if it comes back up, but the I was at the Union

1247
01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:39,960
negotiations when they when we increased it to 70 and the thought was and it was

1248
01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:47,260
than this room that we would, we would up what we were charging for, for our detail rate in

1249
01:28:47,260 --> 01:28:51,380
order to make up the difference. This idea of drawing down the, like, charging less

1250
01:28:51,380 --> 01:28:54,620
money to draw down in the account is, didn't come from this board.

1251
01:28:55,900 --> 01:28:59,800
No, and I agree with you that this should be increased. I know other departments that are

1252
01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:02,580
administrative fee where they start at is over $100.

1253
01:29:03,540 --> 01:29:09,940
R's is still at 77. I would suggest that we do raise that, but obviously that amount would

1254
01:29:11,720 --> 01:29:15,020
probably we would need to do some type of survey with the other agencies or we don't

1255
01:29:15,020 --> 01:29:18,860
price ourselves out of the market. I know that other these companies are willing to pay us,

1256
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:23,540
but I don't want to set some fee that's astronomical that they wouldn't want to pay.

1257
01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:25,260
To do the work that's needed in town.

1258
01:29:28,860 --> 01:29:34,680
So that issue that Council Appear is could be discussed so that probably that may be in the

1259
01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:38,380
agenda item that Council Appear would like to have that for a future agenda.

1260
01:29:38,380 --> 01:29:51,480
But if we got to this, I think it makes sense based on the chief solution is, but the rest of the result is a so-called cyberartist point, but it should be something we discussed at the other day.

1261
01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:59,340
So we have a motion on the floor, and second it, there's no further discussion. We can vote. Okay.

1262
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:10,260
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, thank you.

1263
01:30:11,460 --> 01:30:18,040
And we are currently pretty much a councilor.

1264
01:30:18,040 --> 01:30:19,800
maybe I'm not done for the evening.

1265
01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:25,120
Can we ask more questions about this or do it?

1266
01:30:26,180 --> 01:30:31,200
I'm about the whole account in spending down versus.

1267
01:30:32,340 --> 01:30:33,180
We're going to have that.

1268
01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:35,100
That has nothing to do with this.

1269
01:30:35,180 --> 01:30:35,880
No, I know that.

1270
01:30:35,880 --> 01:30:37,120
We voted on it.

1271
01:30:37,340 --> 01:30:39,300
But we will become a future agenda item.

1272
01:30:39,560 --> 01:30:40,420
And it could be a future agenda.

1273
01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:43,100
And if someone were to request tonight,

1274
01:30:43,260 --> 01:30:45,640
they'd become a agenda item on the next meeting

1275
01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:47,760
or the meeting after that, if that could happen.

1276
01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:52,540
I would like to request that, and I don't think it has to be the next meeting, but I'd like

1277
01:30:53,700 --> 01:30:54,140
OK.

1278
01:30:54,160 --> 01:30:57,320
I know I'm constantly having this name, but I just want to get in line.

1279
01:31:01,200 --> 01:31:05,420
If your question is based on what you just said, then I suggest you go first with mine.

1280
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:06,960
OK.

1281
01:31:08,940 --> 01:31:16,080
We will be having discussions on the budget soon, because of the default budget.

1282
01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:22,940
Revenue is always something that we look at when we also discuss the budget and maybe that's something that

1283
01:31:23,500 --> 01:31:27,500
There would be appropriate to say, you know, I was look at some of our revenue sources

1284
01:31:27,500 --> 01:31:32,140
This being one of them saying, you know, are we are we looking at that adequately?

1285
01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:37,600
Why can we be a wide range in conversation on in terms of

1286
01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:45,460
Facilities rentals like that so that we'll come up a little shop soon on a gender is that do you like it all right?

1287
01:31:45,460 --> 01:31:47,480
I mean, it's time to.

1288
01:31:49,380 --> 01:31:50,320
Conscious Smith.

1289
01:31:50,620 --> 01:31:52,360
Yes, so before we get out of new business,

1290
01:31:52,520 --> 01:31:54,400
I have some things I like to read on to the record.

1291
01:31:55,060 --> 01:31:56,180
You have the floor.

1292
01:31:56,640 --> 01:31:56,760
All right.

1293
01:31:56,760 --> 01:31:57,700
Thank you.

1294
01:31:57,800 --> 01:31:59,900
This is a statement to the hopes of town council.

1295
01:32:00,160 --> 01:32:00,440
Good evening.

1296
01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:04,220
I want to address a matter that I was personally involved in.

1297
01:32:04,380 --> 01:32:10,080
And I am raising it here strictly for the governance and public trust perspective.

1298
01:32:10,280 --> 01:32:14,340
Recently, while at a public setting outside of an official town function,

1299
01:32:14,340 --> 01:32:18,060
and I was approached by individuals associated with outfire department.

1300
01:32:18,380 --> 01:32:22,900
During that interaction statements were made suggesting that I may be perceived as a threat

1301
01:32:22,900 --> 01:32:25,420
to the department and the conversation became tense.

1302
01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:28,260
I want to be clear, I'm not raising this.

1303
01:32:28,900 --> 01:32:30,120
It's a personnel agreement.

1304
01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:32,080
Excuse me, personnel grievance.

1305
01:32:32,280 --> 01:32:36,360
I am raising it because it highlights a broader concern about professionalism boundaries

1306
01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:42,020
and how members of the public safety department departments engage with others in the community,

1307
01:32:42,020 --> 01:32:45,440
including elected officials outside of official duties.

1308
01:32:46,900 --> 01:32:49,640
When those types of interactions occur in a public setting,

1309
01:32:50,060 --> 01:32:53,280
they can impact public confidence, reflect on the town,

1310
01:32:53,660 --> 01:32:55,500
and reflect on the town as a whole.

1311
01:32:56,120 --> 01:32:58,340
As a council, I believe we should consider

1312
01:32:58,340 --> 01:33:02,980
whether we're the current expectations for off-duty conduct

1313
01:33:02,980 --> 01:33:06,280
are clearly defined, whether additional guidance

1314
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:10,340
or training is appropriate, and how we ensure that all

1315
01:33:10,340 --> 01:33:16,440
reactions, formal or informal reflect the professionalism expected of our departments.

1316
01:33:17,320 --> 01:33:21,700
I am not asking this council to take any action on a specific individual, but rather to

1317
01:33:21,700 --> 01:33:25,180
ensure our policies and expectations are clear and upheld.

1318
01:33:25,720 --> 01:33:29,360
This is about maintaining trust accountability in the integrity of our town.

1319
01:33:33,420 --> 01:33:52,470
I'm great, dude. Was there something that you had for the response from I do and I think this was I think there was an email sent to Chief Nathol and in correct I inform them and I did not get a response from either the chief or the deputy chief

1320
01:33:53,190 --> 01:33:54,630
because this actually happened

1321
01:33:55,970 --> 01:34:01,030
last night and and I don't know if this constitutes a response, but he

1322
01:34:01,930 --> 01:34:05,150
Chief Nathol did send me an email with

1323
01:34:05,250 --> 01:34:10,090
a memo worth guarding, that's particular incident.

1324
01:34:10,510 --> 01:34:13,410
You said, and I'll just read that into the record as well.

1325
01:34:14,290 --> 01:34:17,170
The Huxit Fire Department, Fire and Rescue Department

1326
01:34:17,170 --> 01:34:19,950
has been made aware of an off-duty conversation

1327
01:34:19,950 --> 01:34:23,270
involving an employee of the department and the local

1328
01:34:23,270 --> 01:34:25,770
executive official that has been raised allegations

1329
01:34:25,770 --> 01:34:27,590
regarding the professional conduct.

1330
01:34:28,510 --> 01:34:32,130
Although this matter occurred outside of work hours

1331
01:34:32,130 --> 01:34:38,070
and off of municipal property, the fire department, is revealing the reported interaction

1332
01:34:38,070 --> 01:34:41,910
in accordance with the established department and town policies.

1333
01:34:42,970 --> 01:34:48,210
As this is an off-duty personnel related manner, the fire department will not comment further.

1334
01:34:49,090 --> 01:34:53,890
As the public safety organization entrusted with the community, the fire department has always

1335
01:34:53,890 --> 01:34:59,830
held members to the same standard and professionalism and conduct that applies across

1336
01:34:59,830 --> 01:34:59,970
.

1337
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:06,260
All town of Hoopsett departments consistent with our shared values and responsibilities.

1338
01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:14,340
The department will remain committed to operating with pride and integrity to serve the town of Hoopsett.

1339
01:35:17,100 --> 01:35:17,720
Thank you, Roger.

1340
01:35:20,960 --> 01:35:21,320
Okay.

1341
01:35:21,800 --> 01:35:21,960
Confidence.

1342
01:35:22,440 --> 01:35:25,440
That, uh, a conference submit to ask that to be in the record.

1343
01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:28,960
And that is, uh, both of these launches are now currently in record.

1344
01:35:29,820 --> 01:35:29,960
And, uh,

1345
01:35:32,980 --> 01:35:35,020
any more further action required at this point?

1346
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:36,220
Constable.

1347
01:35:36,660 --> 01:35:36,760
Yes.

1348
01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:37,100
No.

1349
01:35:37,120 --> 01:35:37,820
Thank you.

1350
01:35:38,100 --> 01:35:39,420
Um, I just wanted to read that on to the record.

1351
01:35:39,580 --> 01:35:42,400
So, uh, I also have another, um, public comment.

1352
01:35:43,100 --> 01:35:43,320
Good evening.

1353
01:35:43,420 --> 01:35:44,400
My name is David Smith.

1354
01:35:44,400 --> 01:35:49,100
Folks at town counselor tonight I'm entering into the record a summary of multiple first

1355
01:35:49,100 --> 01:35:53,280
hand accounts of residents and business owners regarding the conduct of the current building

1356
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:59,100
inspector. These accounts are not isolated. They reflect the consistent pattern of behavior described

1357
01:35:59,100 --> 01:36:05,400
as rude, condescending, selectively enforced and in some cases openly retaliatory. One local

1358
01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:11,000
business owner reports being ordered to shut down and already approve patio without any written

1359
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:17,780
directive after seeking help from the council he was told you tried to go against me now you're

1360
01:36:17,780 --> 01:36:22,840
going to pay for that. He was then subjected to repeated inspections, excessive requirements

1361
01:36:22,840 --> 01:36:28,660
and financial loss. Another resident on Benton Road brought forward documented concerns

1362
01:36:28,660 --> 01:36:34,040
about violations of an improved snow storage plan even after providing the official plan.

1363
01:36:34,200 --> 01:36:36,760
The issue was dismissed with the...

1364
01:36:36,760 --> 01:36:38,420
Consciousness gave you the start for a second.

1365
01:36:38,600 --> 01:36:40,860
We may be shredding in water that we shouldn't be.

1366
01:36:41,180 --> 01:36:42,640
Sanchez is a town employee.

1367
01:36:42,940 --> 01:36:44,500
This may have to go to non-public at some point.

1368
01:36:44,540 --> 01:36:45,660
Well, I don't believe it does.

1369
01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:47,120
That absolutely does, I'm sorry.

1370
01:36:47,620 --> 01:36:50,140
I did not name, I named the department not a person.

1371
01:36:50,140 --> 01:36:52,160
I named the individual, but not my name.

1372
01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:54,080
And it's not your decision to make that.

1373
01:36:54,120 --> 01:36:55,460
I'd like to remind you of that.

1374
01:36:55,960 --> 01:36:58,440
So if the council chairman makes your suggestion

1375
01:36:58,440 --> 01:37:00,260
that this may be have to come up to non-public,

1376
01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:01,960
then that's the way it's going to have to be.

1377
01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:03,420
So you can stop at this point.

1378
01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:04,120
Thank you.

1379
01:37:07,060 --> 01:37:12,960
And if it's up to the council, it's up to the council.

1380
01:37:14,260 --> 01:37:22,900
It is, however, if the chairman or someone thinks it should stop, then it stops at that point and will continue with it.

1381
01:37:22,900 --> 01:37:25,380
I thought we as a collective decide about it.

1382
01:37:25,580 --> 01:37:30,520
In most cases you do it in the meantime, when you have to stop somebody for something that may be violent in 1991,

1383
01:37:31,200 --> 01:37:33,640
we don't have to take a vote on it, it just happens.

1384
01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:35,640
I think you know that.

1385
01:37:36,460 --> 01:37:36,780
All right.

1386
01:37:36,840 --> 01:37:37,180
Thank you.

1387
01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:38,740
We all agree on it.

1388
01:37:39,100 --> 01:37:40,640
We don't agree on anything.

1389
01:37:40,880 --> 01:37:41,360
We agree on it.

1390
01:37:41,440 --> 01:37:42,680
We stop that conversation.

1391
01:37:43,780 --> 01:37:46,100
Because it involves individual that works for the town.

1392
01:37:46,600 --> 01:37:49,320
It's not a public matter at this point.

1393
01:37:49,660 --> 01:37:51,780
It's hearsay at this point.

1394
01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:51,980
Okay.

1395
01:37:53,500 --> 01:37:53,520
Point.

1396
01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:53,700
Point.

1397
01:37:53,700 --> 01:37:53,980
Point.

1398
01:37:54,580 --> 01:37:54,980
Point.

1399
01:37:55,180 --> 01:37:55,400
Point.

1400
01:37:55,560 --> 01:37:55,800
Point.

1401
01:37:56,500 --> 01:37:56,900
Point.

1402
01:37:56,900 --> 01:38:01,980
question for for Councillor Doheim if you don't when when you said we all agree we all agree

1403
01:38:01,980 --> 01:38:06,920
on what just all agree that this should be non public yeah agree yeah that's that's what

1404
01:38:06,920 --> 01:38:10,040
I thought you were saying hey I think there was a little misunderstanding I want to make sure

1405
01:38:10,040 --> 01:38:13,400
you want to stop it because it didn't it's not like you wanted to continue

1406
01:38:17,340 --> 01:38:22,640
and when this does come up and if this does come up a non public session then I would

1407
01:38:22,640 --> 01:38:28,760
You know, one, I wouldn't have all the listing of what the allegations against the

1408
01:38:28,760 --> 01:38:29,400
employee are.

1409
01:38:29,540 --> 01:38:35,380
So the employee has an opportunity, the definitive service has not be subject to decimation

1410
01:38:35,380 --> 01:38:40,500
of character on hearsay, which should have, that should be presented.

1411
01:38:41,220 --> 01:38:46,460
The employee, as we have done with other employees in the past, have an opportunity to hear

1412
01:38:46,460 --> 01:38:51,480
what's going on and defend themselves, and they have an opportunity not only to have

1413
01:38:51,480 --> 01:38:55,940
this in non-public session, but they also have the opportunity to have this in public session

1414
01:38:55,940 --> 01:38:56,700
as well.

1415
01:38:57,300 --> 01:39:04,920
So can we be clear so the employee can choose non-public or public, but I cannot read this

1416
01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:05,820
into public.

1417
01:39:06,020 --> 01:39:06,800
I can't make it public.

1418
01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:07,960
Correct.

1419
01:39:10,820 --> 01:39:16,820
You should read 91A, you really should, but it states clearly that when you're discussing

1420
01:39:16,820 --> 01:39:21,360
something that might affect the reputation of a person not elect to this board, it should

1421
01:39:21,360 --> 01:39:22,180
done in non-public.

1422
01:39:23,500 --> 01:39:27,960
So, this is my second time that I brought this up, and the board has not acted the first

1423
01:39:27,960 --> 01:39:28,760
and now the second.

1424
01:39:29,380 --> 01:39:34,000
So the thing about non-public meetings is that if we've had a meeting about this priority

1425
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:37,180
being on the board, you wouldn't know about it, right?

1426
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:39,640
So I understand it.

1427
01:39:39,640 --> 01:39:44,640
So don't think that nothing happened before you got elected to town council, right?

1428
01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:49,340
We've been a lot of us have been here for many years, working with the town for many years,

1429
01:39:49,340 --> 01:39:53,680
on all sorts of items up and down. Can you clarify your point?

1430
01:39:54,220 --> 01:39:57,840
My point is that this board existed before you got on it.

1431
01:39:58,500 --> 01:39:59,980
So you're assuming I didn't believe that.

1432
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:27,660
It was the case. I, you don't act like it. No, you act like I would not. You've never been concerned. You're being a little overbearing with your comments. Okay. And obviously things happen prior. And if you think so, third year to fall budget, how you doing on your, your 10 year now? What does that have to do with it? You're not, you're not taking care of the people. Mr. Chairman, can we move on to the regular item like I understand it's a concern, but I don't, you don't want to go this way.

1433
01:40:27,660 --> 01:40:34,080
a nine public item. I would like that to happen sooner than later time. Thank you. Okay,

1434
01:40:34,280 --> 01:40:39,700
I'll concentrate. I believe that the last thing item before we're going to turn on public

1435
01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:46,040
is the approval of the minutes of March 25th at 2026. I'll have a motion.

1436
01:40:49,320 --> 01:40:54,300
Mister, I like to make a motion if I can be recognized to approve the minutes of March 25th

1437
01:40:54,300 --> 01:41:02,180
twenty twenty six as presented I'll second. Although I will note that the minutes change font

1438
01:41:03,100 --> 01:41:10,540
randomly in the middle of the document and then change back. Do I want the procedure specific

1439
01:41:10,540 --> 01:41:18,440
specified the font? They they do not but I would just would like them to be the if the same font

1440
01:41:18,440 --> 01:41:20,040
the row if possible.

1441
01:41:23,110 --> 01:41:24,890
Okay, so we have a motion we have a second.

1442
01:41:26,150 --> 01:41:26,570
Second.

1443
01:41:26,970 --> 01:41:27,730
I made the second.

1444
01:41:27,830 --> 01:41:29,090
Oh, you thank you very much, Councilor.

1445
01:41:29,490 --> 01:41:29,570
Okay.

1446
01:41:31,570 --> 01:41:34,290
And I started from the front of any of the issues.

1447
01:41:34,950 --> 01:41:37,990
No, they were the contents were perfect.

1448
01:41:38,390 --> 01:41:38,870
Very good.

1449
01:41:38,990 --> 01:41:40,090
Okay, that's good.

1450
01:41:40,210 --> 01:41:40,910
Thank you.

1451
01:41:41,110 --> 01:41:41,310
Councilor.

1452
01:41:41,430 --> 01:41:41,630
Okay.

1453
01:41:41,710 --> 01:41:44,110
All of us don't feel the motions as presented.

1454
01:41:45,150 --> 01:41:45,890
We say aye.

1455
01:41:47,230 --> 01:41:47,650
Post.

1456
01:41:48,350 --> 01:41:48,770
Okay.

1457
01:41:49,430 --> 01:41:57,390
So, Council was our next order of business and is non-public under it in 1991, A, 3,

1458
01:41:59,680 --> 01:42:02,240
2, and A and B.

1459
01:42:02,860 --> 01:42:04,900
We have another set of minutes to approve.

1460
01:42:05,100 --> 01:42:06,020
Oh, we do.

1461
01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:07,140
We do.

1462
01:42:08,400 --> 01:42:08,520
We do.

1463
01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:08,660
We do.

1464
01:42:09,680 --> 01:42:09,920
We do.

1465
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:10,720
Non-public minutes.

1466
01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:11,180
I'm sorry.

1467
01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:16,020
Mr. Chair, I move to approve the non-public minutes for March 25th, 2026.

1468
01:42:17,020 --> 01:42:17,700
I'll second it.

1469
01:42:19,730 --> 01:42:20,150
Thank you.

1470
01:42:20,670 --> 01:42:20,930
Okay.

1471
01:42:20,930 --> 01:42:24,730
All of my fair, we say aye, aye.

1472
01:42:25,450 --> 01:42:26,410
And anyone opposed?

1473
01:42:28,270 --> 01:42:29,210
Thank you very much.

1474
01:42:29,810 --> 01:42:31,020
No, we have one thing.

1475
01:42:32,250 --> 01:42:35,970
I got this mentioned one thing, which I omitted in my T.A. report.

1476
01:42:36,470 --> 01:42:37,870
And that has to do with it.

1477
01:42:38,330 --> 01:42:41,390
I think I indicated a hiring that would took place,

1478
01:42:41,610 --> 01:42:45,030
but there also was a resignation within the police department.

1479
01:42:45,030 --> 01:42:48,350
And I was around Richard Folcher, police officer.

1480
01:42:48,350 --> 01:42:52,350
who is resigned effective April 17th, 2026.

1481
01:42:54,790 --> 01:42:55,850
Thank you, Andre.

1482
01:42:56,390 --> 01:42:57,890
Thank you.

1483
01:42:58,290 --> 01:42:59,870
Our motion could

1484
01:43:02,080 --> 01:43:03,180
go into public call.

1485
01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:07,020
Could we do as for public input one more time just for appearances?

1486
01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:12,620
Agenda item 17.

1487
01:43:13,380 --> 01:43:14,500
Drill you just.

1488
01:43:15,200 --> 01:43:16,280
There's nobody here, sorry.

1489
01:43:17,060 --> 01:43:17,500
Say that.

1490
01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:20,780
I do as a motion to point to nine public.

1491
01:43:20,780 --> 01:43:24,620
So, counselor, would you roll call please?

1492
01:43:25,560 --> 01:43:27,180
Was that seconded?

1493
01:43:28,840 --> 01:43:29,780
I was seconded.

1494
01:43:29,820 --> 01:43:30,400
I didn't.

1495
01:43:30,680 --> 01:43:30,900
First time.

1496
01:43:31,020 --> 01:43:31,660
I thought it was already.

1497
01:43:31,740 --> 01:43:32,220
Thank you.

1498
01:43:32,580 --> 01:43:34,380
And that was citation A and B.

1499
01:43:35,260 --> 01:43:35,740
Correct.

1500
01:43:37,240 --> 01:43:37,460
Oh, what?

1501
01:43:37,740 --> 01:43:38,460
Can we have a?

1502
01:43:39,600 --> 01:43:40,220
We haven't ended.

1503
01:43:41,120 --> 01:43:41,680
What's that?

1504
01:43:41,780 --> 01:43:42,520
We're going to.

1505
01:43:42,520 --> 01:43:44,240
He made a motion going to non-pop agenda.

1506
01:43:44,500 --> 01:43:46,040
I mean, that A and B.

1507
01:43:46,540 --> 01:43:47,640
Based on the T.A.

1508
01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:53,560
we put in our say and be I can read you the citations if you'd like.

1509
01:43:58,720 --> 01:43:59,680
Thank you.

1510
01:43:59,680 --> 01:43:59,840
All right.

1511
01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:00,440
Thank you.

1512
01:44:00,700 --> 01:44:00,920
All right.

We'll call number three in turn and I'm public.

1514

Councilor Wolzer.

1515
01:44:04,020 --> 01:44:04,580
All right.

1516
01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:05,340
Councilor Liberty.

1517
01:44:06,280 --> 01:44:06,700
