1
00:00:02,639 --> 00:00:05,759
I didn't know what was sort of going on.
>> Well, I didn't hear a doorbell or

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:10,559
nothing.
>> No, no, I just knocked and opened the

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:13,360
door and told hello Daryl and I'm
thinking please answer me. Yes,

4
00:00:12,445 --> 00:00:16,080
[laughter]
please have.

5
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:23,039
» Thank you very much. Sorry for being
late. So, it's 5:46. I'd like to call

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:29,679
the commole meeting to order at 5:30.
First story bit for the agenda. I don't

7
00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:34,719
believe there's anything. We have no in
camera.

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:37,600
So the agenda are there any additions or
deletions?

9
00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:40,079
Do you have anything?
>> Yes, sir.

10
00:00:38,559 --> 00:00:43,600
» All right. Can I have a motion to accept
the agenda as is?

11
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:48,399
» Motion to accept as is.
>> Favor. Thank you.

12
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:54,800
First order of business
6.1, the new business and solid waste

13
00:00:50,559 --> 00:00:59,359
collection survey. See if you've been
working on that. Do you want to discuss

14
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:03,920
it or? Yeah, I can.
>> Okay, thank you.

15
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:08,560
» Um, so we have heard lots of feedback
from residents that some of them would

16
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:15,920
like to go to weekly back to weekly
garbage pickup. So, we got a quote from

17
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:22,960
our provider and um
we just want to do a survey of the

18
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:28,320
residents in town. We'll do it on our uh
website. We'll have it in the paper and

19
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:34,960
it'll be at the front counter
for um everybody to fill out if they

20
00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:41,920
choose to. We will take uh the results
of that from the received verified

21
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:45,840
um surveys that we get back and the
majority will bring to will bring to

22
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:50,560
council what the majority wants and then
you guys can make the decision. the

23
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:53,840
extra cost would be $12.95 a month,
which is what they're pay or what

24
00:01:52,079 --> 00:02:00,399
they're paying now for bi-weekly. So
basically it would double. Um and then

25
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:05,759
so the total cost for garbage would go
up to $35.95

26
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:12,160
from 29 now because the $5 is coming off
on October 1st and we could implement

27
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:17,040
this on October 1st. The garbage um
integrity says they only need a week's

28
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:24,000
notice. So, um, we're going to have the
survey available starting tomorrow if

29
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:28,319
you, um, recommend that we do that and
it'll have to be filled out by September

30
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:34,080
17th so we can bring it back on the next
council meeting and then make the

31
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:38,000
decision and then let Integrity know.
There any questions?

32
00:02:35,920 --> 00:02:43,200
» I have a question. How are we letting
the residents know? Because I know a lot

33
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:46,160
of people speak to me about it.
>> About the survey, you mean?

34
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,519
» How are we letting them know about the
survey? Yes, that's correct.

35
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:53,440
» Oh, it'll be on our on our website.
Jesse will send out a mass notification.

36
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:57,920
It'll be in the paper. It'll go on
Facebook.

37
00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:01,760
» Okay.
>> Thank you.

38
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:06,159
I know last time, you know, there was a
lot of talk that they didn't have any

39
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:11,519
say in the decision,
>> right? And unfortunately, I mean, we we

40
00:03:09,599 --> 00:03:15,760
we planned on it for a long time and we
made the decision as a council and and

41
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:20,640
there was some feedback saying that you
know advice, but I mean we that's what

42
00:03:18,959 --> 00:03:24,640
we're here for is to make these
decisions for them. So, um this way I

43
00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:27,360
guess in this one if they don't like it,
they don't want it, leave it the way it

44
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:33,280
is.
If you want to change it, we'll change

45
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:38,560
it. I mean, it's unfortunate that uh you
can't have daily uh pickups or weekly

46
00:03:36,959 --> 00:03:42,560
day, you know, without paying for it.
Everything everything cost money.

47
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:46,400
» So, yeah. Go ahead.
>> Is it noted on the survey or anywhere

48
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:52,319
that uh the people do have an option to
have a second bin without um like if we

49
00:03:50,239 --> 00:03:58,239
don't get every second week or pardon
me, if we don't get every week pickup

50
00:03:54,239 --> 00:04:04,720
that week? No, we can put that on there.
We can put that on in our communication.

51
00:04:00,959 --> 00:04:07,280
Um, but we if people call in, we do tell
them that they're allowed to have a

52
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:11,360
second bin.
>> Um, it's not that they're running out of

53
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:17,919
room for garbage. That's not the
complaint. The complaint is it stinks

54
00:04:14,239 --> 00:04:24,880
and they're um some stuff shouldn't be
left for 2 weeks. Um, yeah, it's more

55
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:29,040
that it's not I can't my bin is full.
It's more

56
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:33,440
I don't like the smell of it or I have
stuff in there that shouldn't be left

57
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:37,040
for 2 weeks,
but I can definitely and when we send it

58
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,400
out, we can say that you're allowed to
have two bins and the cost is $12.95 a

59
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,680
month.
>> What would go into the gar standard

60
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,320
garbage that would I guess
>> dirty personally? Yes.

61
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:52,479
» Yeah.
>> Everything that brought it should be in

62
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:55,919
organics, but there is dirty.
>> Yeah. So, have you checked into the cost

63
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:59,600
for a second bid?
>> It's $12.95.

64
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:02,160
We already there are people that have a
second bin already.

65
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:05,440
» Okay.
>> But the difference is we can they can

66
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:06,479
have that just then instead of the whole
town.

67
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:13,199
» Yeah.
>> So, really after you take off the $5,

68
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:18,639
it's basically down to $7.95.
>> No, it's going up $12.95. Garbage is

69
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:24,720
$12.95, but this the recycle is coming
off. So they would have only been paying

70
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:29,440
$24.95.
>> Yeah.

71
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:33,120
» And now or $23.95 after the recycle came
off.

72
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:38,080
But now with
recycle going back on or not recycle, if

73
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,520
they add another bin, it's an extra
$12.95

74
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:45,039
over in a book like
>> Okay. But if if nothing changes, if

75
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:48,560
nothing changes, we don't have any more
services. Everybody's fee is going down

76
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,479
$5.
>> Correct.

77
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,919
Okay.
>> As of October 1st.

78
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:57,120
» Yes. Which they've already been notified
about that. So,

79
00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:03,039
» yeah. Just being know that wants to know
that. And uh and I mean October 1st is

80
00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:07,120
when the uh the new organics thing comes
in with the province. Is that correct?

81
00:06:05,199 --> 00:06:09,440
» The new recycle. Yeah.
>> Okay.

82
00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:13,759
» So, basically,
>> one and the same, I guess. I'm sorry.

83
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:20,000
» Yeah.
>> So, basically what we're saying is the

84
00:06:16,479 --> 00:06:26,960
current is 105. It's going to go down to
$100 with the $5 slot. But if they want

85
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:32,880
weekly garbage pickup, the utility bill
is going to be 155.

86
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:38,080
» No, the weekly the monthly utility bill
will go up to 113.

87
00:06:35,919 --> 00:06:41,039
» And then but it's an increased cost of
$155 a year.

88
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,400
» Yeah.
>> To have weekly garbage pickup.

89
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,560
» Okay.
>> Yeah.

90
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:51,919
So,
>> and garbage isn't something that a town

91
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:57,000
subsidizes. It's totally user pay. So,
>> yeah. So, the decision is

92
00:06:57,280 --> 00:07:04,479
» and I just we're going to make it very
clear that it this affects everybody.

93
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:11,840
So, um hang on, there's just a wasp
right here. Um [laughter]

94
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:16,080
» that it it affects everybody. So that um
like and if you don't if you don't want

95
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:19,840
like basically you need to have your
voice be heard because this could affect

96
00:07:17,759 --> 00:07:25,039
your bill and if it's something you
don't want or do want you need to let us

97
00:07:22,479 --> 00:07:31,300
know because if you don't want it and
you don't speak up and then you end up

98
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:33,759
paying it I don't want to hear about it.
[laughter]

99
00:07:32,610 --> 00:07:37,199
[gasps]
>> All right. Any more question discussion?

100
00:07:36,319 --> 00:07:41,120
Yeah. Go ahead.
>> Just a comment. We want to make sure

101
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:45,919
with this that that integrity isn't
picking up at Jesse's house and they

102
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:50,560
skip my house and skip council Kevin's
house and go to Car's house with because

103
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:53,199
she wants it picked up every week. That
won't happen either.

104
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:57,440
» Well, you can't have that happen. It's
not possible.

105
00:07:54,400 --> 00:08:00,879
» Everybody gets it or nobody.
>> See, you're absolutely right because I

106
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,000
know in the last one there I had people
come up to me and say, "Well, I don't

107
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:07,680
want to pay for I don't need it. I'm
going to use it." Well, guess what? It's

108
00:08:05,599 --> 00:08:09,759
one for all and all for one.
So

109
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:14,560
» yes, we do the same thing and be
prepared if the answer is no, we don't

110
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:18,080
want it, they'll raise some feed
>> issues.

111
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,960
Okay, pretty straightforward. Yeah, go
ahead.

112
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:26,720
» I don't know if this has been available
through Integrity, but I did see in Luke

113
00:08:23,199 --> 00:08:33,760
in um the adult living area that there's
one bin for a section of homes. Uh the

114
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:38,719
pardon me when I'm saying one bin, the
organics.

115
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:42,800
So, eight houses can go drop into one
bin.

116
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:47,360
I don't know if that's available through
Integrity,

117
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:51,279
possibly say for the apartment building.
I don't know if they have organics at

118
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,880
the apartment building or for Happy
Haven.

119
00:08:52,160 --> 00:09:00,959
» The apartment building does its own
garbage. They're not on our

120
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:04,399
» Well, this would be organics. Yeah, but
if if you don't have like they would

121
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,680
have to arrange that themselves because
they're not on our program.

122
00:09:05,839 --> 00:09:12,880
» Okay. What about the
>> Oh, I'm thinking Happy Haven where

123
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,760
they're clustered and there's more than
just one household.

124
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:20,000
» I don't know.
>> Jesse, what does Happy Haven have right

125
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:23,440
now? They have bins, don't they?
>> As far as I know. Yeah.

126
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:26,880
» Yeah. So, everybody there they have
multiple bins.

127
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:30,000
» They have 12 bins as far as I'm aware.
That's

128
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:33,680
» I have to look it up.
>> They pay a larger fee.

129
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,240
» But you're just you're just talking to
the apartment. You're not saying that.

130
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:40,880
» No, I'm saying
>> households can together and use one.

131
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:47,040
» Right. Well, this is what I'm seeing in
Luke that this is available in the um

132
00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:51,519
ravine villas. I'm not sure how many
units go to just one bin.

133
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:54,399
» That goes all each of them have a banana
peel. They don't really have they don't

134
00:09:53,279 --> 00:09:57,279
have their own grass.
>> Yeah. Go ahead.

135
00:09:54,959 --> 00:10:03,120
» Yeah. and Tracy, they're a condo society
and normally condos aren't included in

136
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:07,760
garbage pickup in a in a community.
>> That's their arrangement, but I thought

137
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:11,920
it was kind of smart. It's just out in
>> and that's through the city of Leuke or

138
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:16,720
they do that on their own
>> because the most condos have their own

139
00:10:14,079 --> 00:10:21,920
garbage pickup. So, they would have to
do garbage and organic separately

140
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:26,079
through their garbage
>> like do you know what I mean?

141
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:29,920
Just food for thought.
>> Yeah, because it's a condo board and

142
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:34,560
condos like my mom and dad used to live
in a condo and the condo took care of

143
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:38,640
the garbage, not the city of Leuke,
>> right? Did you

144
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:43,839
» um just kind of thought I guess to keep
in mind if we were to do something like

145
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:48,560
that, a part of this also did stem from
we we sort of almost had an option like

146
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:53,600
that with the organics pile. Um, I would
wager if let's let's say if all of

147
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:57,279
Madison got their own organic spin,
other people from town would just dump

148
00:10:54,959 --> 00:11:01,600
their garbage in there, right?
>> Or dump large trucks or things that

149
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:06,079
shouldn't be in there. Like it's just we
have a history of that sort of abuse.

150
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:10,160
» Like if you did that, you can't you're
going to end up where two or three

151
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:15,839
neighbors are fighting. What are you
putting your dog crap in my organic spin

152
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:21,120
for? And then like it happened, right?
>> Yeah. We've already got residents that

153
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:24,959
fill up our our garments around town and
stuff. And I mean folded brim every

154
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,959
week.
>> Really?

155
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:32,600
» Every week they're dumping. I even know
>> I'll dump my car garbage.

156
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:38,160
» Gas station.
>> Okay.

157
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:43,040
Anything else?
>> Are you going to allow So it's a survey.

158
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:47,839
I get that. But if people come into the
gallery, are you going to allow them

159
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:50,560
some time to to speak regarding this?
>> Uh after after we get the survey back.

160
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,079
» Yeah.
>> Um I don't know. How do you want to run

161
00:11:51,839 --> 00:11:58,320
that Donna? Do you want to um do you
want to do a public meeting on it or do

162
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:02,959
you want an open house on it or what
would you like to do? the Don the only

163
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:06,079
reason I'm bring the only reason I'm
bringing it up

164
00:12:04,079 --> 00:12:08,639
» is because once people start hearing
about it

165
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:12,720
» they come in here then they can speak
their piece and then they got this is

166
00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:15,680
the way it is right
>> I'm thinking the survey is going to

167
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:21,680
speak for itself but
>> but give people opportunity you know

168
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:25,519
» yeah running scenarios through my head
here I don't have a problem uh subject

169
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:29,200
to council's approval with a public
hearing ahead of council meeting you

170
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:32,959
just allow for half an hour Yeah.
>> So, it's

171
00:12:31,948 --> 00:12:36,959
[laughter]
>> I think that way you get more

172
00:12:34,399 --> 00:12:40,079
clarification rather than, oh, I heard
this and I heard that because that's a

173
00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:45,360
lot of what's going on now, right?
>> Well, I I think what you probably do is

174
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:49,760
uh we bring results in and then we let
anybody speak to it. I mean, like I

175
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,120
said, the the the survey is going to
speak for itself.

176
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:54,160
» Yeah.
>> But still give people

177
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:56,480
» Is there a place for comments on the
survey?

178
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,839
» That's what I was just going to say. We
could add a comment section on the

179
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:05,600
survey and people can write their
comments on there if they want.

180
00:13:02,959 --> 00:13:10,639
» So if we get when and hopefully we get a
lot of surveys back,

181
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,639
» it's going to be the majority.
>> Yeah.

182
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,519
» Rules then.
>> Yep.

183
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,760
» Yes.
>> Yep. That's what I mean. So

184
00:13:15,519 --> 00:13:22,320
» the only thing Oh, sorry. You were
council. The only thing I'm thinking

185
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:26,880
about timing is this the if we had a
public we'd have to have a public

186
00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:30,480
hearing ahead of the regular.
So, we may want to extend our due date

187
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,519
for the survey because you definitely
don't want to have the survey results

188
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:35,519
and then hold a public hearing. It'll
look like we've

189
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:40,320
» Yeah.
>> uh shanked it somehow, right?

190
00:13:38,079 --> 00:13:46,399
» So, we'd have to look at extending the
survey to the to the end of that week of

191
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:51,200
the council meeting. then you could take
in the public hearing comments [snorts]

192
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:59,120
as well into that if that's what council
wants to do. Um, and I would suggest

193
00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:04,000
for a public hearing once they have time
to speak to it, they are have they're

194
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:07,199
going to have to register to come in.
It's a public hear. They got to register

195
00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:10,560
their name.
>> They still have to have a yay or nay

196
00:14:08,639 --> 00:14:11,839
vote. They can't just come in and and be
upset.

197
00:14:11,199 --> 00:14:14,800
» No. Exactly.
>> They have to have a yay or nay vote. and

198
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:22,000
they have to register that vote beside
their their name that that they uh sign

199
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:25,920
into. Otherwise, you're allowing folks
to voice their opinions, but your survey

200
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,720
is already done.
>> Yeah.

201
00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:31,279
» And you're entering into another
>> Yeah.

202
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:36,320
» nightmare. So, I mean, it's however
which way council wants to go.

203
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:42,320
So would it not be a good idea that like
I'll take some time do a timeline let

204
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:46,240
them come in and speak to it and then
make the decision

205
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:49,360
» make the decisions you can and then they
would have to vote that night though

206
00:14:47,839 --> 00:14:54,959
they would have to say their forward or
against it uh on paper beside their name

207
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:58,160
at reg at the registration like once
they had their chance

208
00:14:55,839 --> 00:15:02,320
» I mean I mean it's like any other
decision on that sometimes when you do

209
00:15:00,399 --> 00:15:04,959
the best interest sometimes you know if
you're having an open house and

210
00:15:03,519 --> 00:15:08,480
something and then majority of the
public doesn't want to do it. It's still

211
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:12,240
our choice to do it. Dina know the
majority has

212
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:17,680
» Yeah.
>> Is it safe to assume it's one survey per

213
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:21,360
household?
>> Should be.

214
00:15:19,519 --> 00:15:25,839
» Yeah. Well, yes. Everybody has So, when
you fill it out, they have to put their

215
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:30,160
name, address, phone number, and email.
Um, and then it's the question. You saw

216
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,880
it on the
>> Jess, can you just bring it up? Yep.

217
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,199
Please.
>> Thank you. Chris, do you have a

218
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,680
question?
>> Oh, just wait. Mr. Mayor, hang on one

219
00:15:36,959 --> 00:15:43,440
second.
>> Hand up and I was smart

220
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:48,160
saying hi. But I I will mention just for
the record because you asked me uh I've

221
00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:53,680
only got like five extra bins
>> to at my disposal and I have no extra

222
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:57,519
cycling bins. That's all I've got. So,
we would have to order. I don't know if

223
00:15:55,440 --> 00:16:01,279
we paid for
not being used, how that works. They

224
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:04,560
would have to they would have to drop
them off for us, Chris, like they did

225
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:10,000
with the organic bins when they brought
them when we brought them in. So, this

226
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:14,160
this is the survey right here.
>> Make it bigger, just

227
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:18,560
» I mean, I can make it bigger, but you
lose some of the elements of it, but

228
00:16:16,399 --> 00:16:23,680
» I guess just clarity on that it's one
per household because if you got varying

229
00:16:21,759 --> 00:16:27,199
» opinions in the household, you might get
two or three.

230
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:33,519
» Yeah, we can put that on there, too. One
survey per household for sure. Yeah,

231
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:37,680
» I would I would make that very big
>> stand out that it's one per household

232
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:44,480
» because I'm reading all the way down
there. I can sort of, you know, it's a

233
00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:48,079
civic address, but
make it very noticeable. It's one per

234
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:53,199
household.
>> Yeah, it's good.

235
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:56,000
» And and we're adding the comment field.
>> Yeah.

236
00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:59,360
» Okay.
Good.

237
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:01,120
» And what did we decide on? Sorry, just
because we've gone back and forth so

238
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,559
much.
>> Well, here's Can I just speak to the

239
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:09,919
public hearing? And I'm not saying I
don't want one, but I again, if you're

240
00:17:07,199 --> 00:17:13,760
going to go with majority,
like the if you're if that's how you're

241
00:17:11,679 --> 00:17:19,439
going to decide is by the majority of
the survey, if every if 45 people say

242
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:24,880
they want it, and five if we get 50
surveys back, 45 say yes, we want

243
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:28,799
weekly, and five say no, then the five
are going to be mad no matter what. if

244
00:17:26,799 --> 00:17:32,799
and and it if you're if that's how
you're going to decide what people have

245
00:17:30,799 --> 00:17:37,840
to say at a public hearing isn't going
to sway you. So, you guys have to decide

246
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:41,600
how you're going to decide
because if you're going to decide

247
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:47,280
strictly on the survey what the majority
wants, then then it's then there's no

248
00:17:45,679 --> 00:17:51,280
point in having people come in to talk
about it. If you're going to decide

249
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:56,400
based on a public hearing, then there's
no point in doing the survey.

250
00:17:55,200 --> 00:18:00,559
» Okay.
No, I think we still do both

251
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:04,799
» because not everybody can be here when
the town meeting is is happening. So,

252
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:09,600
they still have an opportunity to hand
in the survey, but somebody who feels

253
00:18:07,919 --> 00:18:12,559
the need to voice their opinion still
can come in and do that within that half

254
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:15,280
hour time frame. I think
>> as long as they vote.

255
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,600
» As long as they vote. Yeah, I agree with
that.

256
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:22,559
» But their opinion isn't like that's what
I'm saying. If you're going to go on the

257
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:27,280
majority vote,
then somebody's opinion on what they

258
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:30,640
have to say isn't going to sway you.
>> No, but it's about giving the public an

259
00:18:29,039 --> 00:18:34,480
opportunity to say something and not
everybody is necessarily going to fill

260
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:38,240
out the survey,
>> right? And that's why we're saying like

261
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:42,160
you basically have to fill this out or
your voice isn't heard.

262
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:46,880
» Like if you don't fill out the survey,
you can't be mad with the results.

263
00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:50,720
» Yeah. Okay. Or if they come in and they
want to speak here, why not just get

264
00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:54,559
them to fill out a third sheet while
they're here? Okay, you're here that

265
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:58,240
night. You voiced your opinion. Now,
fill out your survey sheet before you go

266
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:02,160
and then it's all still based off.
>> Well, that would be your worship. That

267
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,600
would be your registration form into
here. They have a survey with the

268
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:10,480
registration form with their vote.
>> Perfect.

269
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:15,039
» Then they get to say their opinion.
>> Sorry, just a thought. I suppose I I I

270
00:19:13,039 --> 00:19:18,799
understand why we would do a public
hearing for many matters, but in this

271
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:23,200
case, if we're still basing it off the
survey and we want to give them a chance

272
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:27,440
to voice their opinions, could we insert
a larger public commentary section just

273
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:32,160
for that part of the agenda? Avoid
having a public hearing altogether, but

274
00:19:29,120 --> 00:19:35,840
still give them an extra 30 minutes a
like before we make the motion in the

275
00:19:33,919 --> 00:19:41,280
regular meeting. That way, we don't have
to schedule anything ahead of time.

276
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:44,720
It's just a I don't mind one way or the
other.

277
00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:48,080
» Thanks.
You have something to say.

278
00:19:45,919 --> 00:19:51,679
» So,
>> the survey is going to be kicked out to

279
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:56,880
everybody.
>> It's going to be available on the

280
00:19:53,600 --> 00:20:01,520
website in the paper and at the front
desk.

281
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:08,400
» Okay. So, my suggestion is we all get a
water bill. Why not attach this survey

282
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:12,160
with every water bill as well? Because
then you can't say you didn't get it.

283
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:15,160
You can't say, "Well, I didn't see it on
Facebook."

284
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:22,240
» It's timing.
>> You won't get it done by October 1st.

285
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:27,440
» I was just trying to figure out a way
where No, you can't get that to go on

286
00:20:25,679 --> 00:20:31,440
the survey would have to be in there
last week when water bills were because

287
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,679
» or we wait till November 1st. Could that
not happen?

288
00:20:32,559 --> 00:20:37,600
» Well, it could.
>> We'd have to do it.

289
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:41,120
» But even then,
>> getting rid of all the flack for all the

290
00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:44,480
people that are going to go, "Well, I
didn't hear about this and I didn't hear

291
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:47,039
about that and I can't attend meetings
and all this."

292
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:52,000
» Kevin, do you know how many people I
sent 53 registered mails, registered

293
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:54,960
letters out to people and I got 10 of
them back.

294
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:58,880
» People don't get their mail.
>> That's not

295
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,919
» Well, they get their water bill.
>> No, they don't. Some of them just come

296
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,799
in and pay or some of them just
automatically pay it every month. People

297
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,799
don't get their
>> mail

298
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:14,880
with the green card.
>> The the you know the owners renters

299
00:21:13,360 --> 00:21:19,360
don't get the water bill and they don't
get it goes to the owners.

300
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:23,919
» Well, they don't have a say.
>> Yes, they do because it's their garbage.

301
00:21:21,360 --> 00:21:27,440
Like it's their garbage, right? And they
pay the bill.

302
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:32,080
» They pay the bill, but they don't get
the bill. Well, I think

303
00:21:30,159 --> 00:21:37,120
» every renter comes in here and says, "I
don't get my bill. How much do I owe

304
00:21:34,799 --> 00:21:40,880
» or they're on cut off list because they
don't get their bills and they come in

305
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,280
when they get the green thing on their
door?"

306
00:21:41,679 --> 00:21:48,720
» So, the survey is available to the
renters when it's advertised this way.

307
00:21:46,159 --> 00:21:54,000
» Yeah, it's available to everybody and I
can tell you that 95% of the people are

308
00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:57,760
on Facebook. They read the paper. I
mean, I can't I can't get no matter what

309
00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:01,039
I do, I can't guarantee everybody's
gonna get one.

310
00:21:59,039 --> 00:22:04,039
» Well, I think we're complicating this.
>> Yeah.

311
00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:13,919
» Okay. If if we delayed it till November
1st to get everybody to get them their

312
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:17,440
survey, does that affect our contract
with integrity? Because it's up for

313
00:22:17,120 --> 00:22:20,880
» No,
>> it's not up at all. It's not up at all.

314
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:25,760
They're just willing to add this extra
week like they're willing to do the

315
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:34,080
addendum to the contract
>> to make sure that everybody gets

316
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:39,440
and has access to their bills.
Why can't we just wait till October and

317
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:44,799
put it in the mail and then make sure
that everybody can see it, everybody

318
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:48,640
knows it, and then our decision can be
made. I don't think we need to have

319
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:54,000
people come in and speak. Put a comment
in there. If they can't comment on it, I

320
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:58,320
don't see any point going any further.
If you feel that strongly on it, put it

321
00:22:56,159 --> 00:23:03,679
on your comment and get your results
back in here.

322
00:23:00,159 --> 00:23:07,039
» Thank I agree with you. It's just
>> I know what

323
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:10,080
» I I I agree with you because then nobody
can actually physically come in and say,

324
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:13,600
"Well, I didn't hear about this. I
didn't hear about that."

325
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,919
» If we put it in all the different areas
and the bill,

326
00:23:15,039 --> 00:23:19,919
done.
>> It's up to us make that decision. We

327
00:23:18,159 --> 00:23:23,679
want to whichever way you want to do it.
>> Well, you're still putting it in paper

328
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:28,240
too as well. So,
>> so sorry, just to clarify the thought.

329
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:32,640
So, are we um think just in thinking are
we thinking put it out on the October

330
00:23:30,159 --> 00:23:36,240
bill and then wait have a deadline for
November 1st and then bring it back to

331
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:40,080
the November regular or do you guys
still want to try to bring it to the

332
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:46,960
October regular after the order? I'd
bring it to the October regular

333
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:50,320
» because bills bills will go out probably
on the 2nd

334
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:54,320
» of October,
>> which means everybody will get it by

335
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:58,400
well, it'll be in their mailbox by the
Monday or Tuesday.

336
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:03,679
If you don't pick up your mail, I can't
control that. But it will also be on

337
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:07,360
Facebook, the website, in the paper. So
>> ahead of time, right, like before the

338
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:09,679
second, we could start that earlier. So
when

339
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:13,600
» we could put it in the paper for that
Friday the 2nd.

340
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:16,480
» So is that is that what anybody wants to
do that way?

341
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:19,360
» Is there any other urgency that we're
not aware of?

342
00:24:17,279 --> 00:24:26,640
» Nope.
>> Does our contract still

343
00:24:23,120 --> 00:24:32,080
put comment on here though yet?
>> She magically do it. She's doing it.

344
00:24:30,159 --> 00:24:34,320
» Okay. All right. Is that the wish of
everybody?

345
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:39,600
» I think that it's
>> all right. I get a recommendation motion

346
00:24:37,039 --> 00:24:45,520
to recommend that council publish a
survey on the town website Facebook

347
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:49,360
connect 39 and the October water bill
>> to direct information to direct count to

348
00:24:47,679 --> 00:24:53,840
direct administration to do that for
you. That's how you're uh your motion

349
00:24:52,799 --> 00:24:55,919
has to read sir.
>> Okay.

350
00:24:54,159 --> 00:25:01,600
» You're directing us to do what
>> correct just said that's what I meant.

351
00:24:58,799 --> 00:25:06,517
» I'll move to direct administration. Same
thing I thought.

352
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:08,000
» It's not okay.
[laughter]

353
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:12,080
» Okay.
>> And sorry, just to clarify one more

354
00:25:09,679 --> 00:25:18,159
thing. If we do it on October 1st, like
send it out in the water bill, we would

355
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:21,760
have a deadline of uh Thursday the 22nd.
>> Exactly.

356
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:26,880
» That we could and then it wouldn't start
till the second week of November because

357
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:30,000
they need a week's notice.
>> So,

358
00:25:28,159 --> 00:25:34,799
» all right. I think we beat it to death
enough already. Somebody would like to

359
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:39,039
» I move to direct administration.
>> Okay.

360
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:41,760
» On what he said
in

361
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:43,520
» favor.
I

362
00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:48,492
» concur.
>> Absolutely concur that we'll do

363
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,492
something. [laughter]

364
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:54,080
» We got
we beat that one up and off. Let's move

365
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:58,960
on.
uh

366
00:25:56,159 --> 00:26:03,279
else reports 7.1
uh I guess I'll start with mine. So uh

367
00:26:01,679 --> 00:26:08,799
going three months for the months of
June, July and August following

368
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:13,440
activities. June the 2nd we had a
special council meeting regarding the

369
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:18,000
river intake lease. June 9th we had a
council of the whole June 13th I just

370
00:26:15,679 --> 00:26:22,880
wanted to point out that uh at my
resident I had my water beer changed. It

371
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:27,120
was probably 40 or 50 years old. The
entire process took about half an hour.

372
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:32,799
Uh went very well considering the age of
my meter and the fact that it had to be

373
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:37,039
cut out and uh replplumped. So they had
to do the whole works on it. Uh the

374
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:42,080
installer was very knowledgeable and
very professional and

375
00:26:39,679 --> 00:26:48,559
everything went very smooth. So I just
wanted to point that out. Uh June 23rd

376
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:52,960
regular council meeting. June 24th I
attended the AGM for the North Scan

377
00:26:51,120 --> 00:26:57,440
Water Alliance. The agenda and program
was shown in correspondence for a

378
00:26:55,279 --> 00:27:02,000
regular meeting. I think in July
everybody saw that there was quite a bit

379
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:08,000
in there. July the 2nd I attended the
Actto Cup as a guest of ACTO CEO Jason

380
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:12,559
Shark. While there I chatted with
President Nancy Sutherland.

381
00:27:10,799 --> 00:27:15,760
uh she was very aware of what's
happening in Thorsby especially

382
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:22,159
regarding with the changing out of the
uh um gas lines and the upgrades and she

383
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:26,960
also was very aware of what we're trying
to do with the water and she was very

384
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:30,240
encouraging to it. I I did make a
comment to her that I said it's taken us

385
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:34,320
a long time. She says when you're
dealing with the government and they're

386
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:38,320
giving you money it takes a lot of time.
So I was kind of I was very impressed

387
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:43,919
that uh you know they certainly
certainly knew about it and was very

388
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:48,000
encouraging they were supporting us. So
uh July the 15th I attended the chlor

389
00:27:46,559 --> 00:27:53,599
barbecue in Morbert along with
counselors Watson and Messen and I was

390
00:27:49,919 --> 00:27:53,599
late for that one as well. [laughter]

391
00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:01,279
» You were I was
>> lost track of time again though. July

392
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:05,679
the 17th, I attended the opening
ceremonies for the uh U8 provincial

393
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:11,360
finals in Thorsby. I gave a little
speech regarding the uh treaty 6 and

394
00:28:08,399 --> 00:28:15,840
treaty 6 indigenous land race and
Thursdays won gold. Congratulations to

395
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:20,159
them all. Even though they had to go to
Millet because it got rained out here

396
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:25,200
the next day, but uh first couple days
was pretty good there. July 28th, we had

399
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:42,080
casting center ice on the arena floor.
This is a custom from the contractor for

400
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:45,600
all their projects recognizing the
Olympics when Canada placed the looney

401
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:49,919
in the ice and went on to win gold. It
goes back

402
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:54,399

contact information. I'm sure CO is

408
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:23,039

very worthwhile.

00:32:40,159 --> 00:32:47,840
documents and again that that language
is is still from the last uh last month.

447
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:52,399
So basically designation of privacy
officer which is me mandatory staff

448
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:56,799
training document classify system etc.
So, we're are just finishing off the

449
00:32:54,159 --> 00:33:02,159
plan. Uh we'll get to classifying
information probably 2027 and 2028 and

450
00:33:00,559 --> 00:33:06,399
2029.
Emergency management. Uh Leoo County is

451
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:10,880
proposing a meeting with all the CEOs to
look at regional emergency management.

452
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:15,039
This was tried a few years ago with some
serious roadblocks. So, uh the CEOs are

453
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:19,760
very interested in how this will be
beneficial and efficient. We'll see. Uh

454
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:25,279
it always comes with a cost and that's
not being nasty. It there is a cost. The

455
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:30,399
last time it was $15,000.
So we'll work through it and and we'll

456
00:33:27,519 --> 00:33:33,679
advise uh July and August highlights. So
attending construction toolboxes as

457
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:38,799
often as possible to keep up with any
issues that we could solve or bring

458
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:42,880
forward. Construction is on budget. Uh
curbon gutter is being staged with

459
00:33:40,399 --> 00:33:46,159
paving after. So they do the curbon
gutter. They put gravel underneath it.

460
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:50,640
Then along comes border pavement.
They're at a heck of a time right now.

461
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:55,039
They took a 40 chase a water break and
it was in a service line and so they got

462
00:33:53,279 --> 00:34:03,600
all that fixed and then there was tree
problems with our famous elms and so

463
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:08,879
that was all looked after as well. Um we
had a uh new uh we have a new Alberta

464
00:34:06,799 --> 00:34:13,760
municipal insurance carrier um
representative so met with met with them

465
00:34:11,359 --> 00:34:18,480
and and had lunch and that's very good.
So, we finished September is the PRQ

466
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:21,839
questionnaire. That means what do you
how many staff do you have? How many new

467
00:34:20,399 --> 00:34:25,679
buildings do you have? How many new
pieces of equipment do you have? That's

468
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:30,320
just them uh getting any new information
so they can up our our premium

469
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:34,000
basically. That's all done. That usually
takes a half a day. And then the finite

470
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:38,079
tracking what we ensure will come in
October before our insurance policy is

471
00:34:35,919 --> 00:34:42,159
bound. So, uh that's when we have to
count tractors and greater blades and

472
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:44,960
all that sort of thing. But we've been
doing that for four and a half years.

473
00:34:43,119 --> 00:34:47,919
So, we're getting better at it. Uh,
monthly meetings with the league player

474
00:34:46,240 --> 00:34:50,480
to keep informed. I try and stop every
Tuesday night if they're at fire

475
00:34:49,119 --> 00:34:56,240
practice. And if they're just coming in
off a practice or coming in off an

476
00:34:52,879 --> 00:35:01,920
event, I try and stop in and uh just
chat with them. Uh, and uh we'll uh

477
00:35:00,079 --> 00:35:06,960
we'll do some finite tracking with them,
what we ensure, and that'll come in

478
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:10,960
October. Sorry. Um, meetings of Yeah,
sorry, I'm on the wrong thing. Uh, the

479
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:14,800
16inch pipeline was fixed at the intake
meetings with Alberta Environment.

480
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:17,839
They're all fine with that. Um, I should
have put a bullet in there. Oops.

481
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,800
Planning matters, compliance,
certificates, development, permits, and

482
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:25,040
discussions been going on all the time.
We have some folks wanting to do things.

483
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:28,960
And so there was chatting with us and
with Liz. Attended the Looney ceremony

484
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:34,240
at the arena. The cement base was being
poured. Had lunch with the Bryand team

485
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:38,000
along with mayor and counselors.
Attended by invit invitation Mr.

486
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:41,440
Bchenko's open house in Devon on a
Saturday to make valuable connections

487
00:35:39,359 --> 00:35:45,040
with his chief of staff. So, here's
here's how we like to work. If I want to

488
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:47,920
talk to Minister Buenko, I have to come
to the mayor and council and get

489
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:51,680
permission to to take one of you with
me. I can't just phone him. Well, hi,

490
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:56,720
how's it going? Uh, but with his chief
of staff, uh, we're all on the same par

491
00:35:54,640 --> 00:36:00,400
level. I can phone them anytime. So, I
met with his chief of staff about a

492
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:06,960
couple issues that that I want some
support on. And uh it may not be uh

493
00:36:03,599 --> 00:36:10,640
Minister Buenko's um ministry, but when
they'll they'll let you have access to

494
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:16,960
the other chiefs of staff when you
become co colleagues. Right. First u

495
00:36:14,240 --> 00:36:22,160
first one I want to look at is uh a road
agreement with uh lead actually with the

496
00:36:19,839 --> 00:36:26,079
province with respect to 778. So I'm
going to look at a road agreement and

497
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:30,800
that's strictly for basically the cement
uh the uh permacete that goes in our

498
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:34,560
water main breaks. So, uh, that letter's
been sent off through Mr. Boyenko's

499
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:40,880
chief of staff to the chief of staff,
Alberta transportation. The second one

500
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:46,079
is is a project that we want to think of
for the uh, industrial parks. I want to

501
00:36:43,359 --> 00:36:51,520
talk to Alberta Innovates and that's a
different ministry through uh, municipal

502
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:56,320
affairs. So, uh, Minister Municipal
Affairs chief of staff and I will chat

503
00:36:53,119 --> 00:36:59,839
about that and and we'll all we all get
to know each other and make friends. So,

504
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:02,480
you get more done at that level. And I'm
not breaking a protocol because I'm

505
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:08,160
pretty fussy with protocol with the
government. Excuse me. Um,

506
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:12,240
orders sent out for mowing lots in June
with either enforcement under contract

507
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:16,880
or mowing attaching, billing to taxes.
All those lots have now been done.

508
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:20,800
Billing is being attached and uh, of
course, uh, we wait always because when

509
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:25,599
an order goes out, the landowner has an
appeal time to which we have to wait.

510
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:31,680
So, that's all done and finished. And we
do have our frequent offenders that uh

511
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:34,560
we will get after that next year. Again,
reviewing with the team bylaws,

512
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:38,880
policies, and more to come. We're making
progress simplifying and making sure uh

513
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:42,720
the policies and bylaws make sense. We
were just discussing one this afternoon,

514
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:46,160
Cindy and I and Jesse, that we had a
very robust discussion about it, which

515
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:49,839
is good. And we realized it didn't make
sense. So, we got to send it to legal.

516
00:37:48,240 --> 00:37:54,960
It uh when you're dealing with money and
charging people things, it has to be

517
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:59,359
right. And especially if there's a fee,
sorry, a fine attached because the last

518
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:02,960
thing we want is to have to go to court
and have lawyers. Otherwise, there's no

519
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:08,800
point writing the fine. If it's not a
provincial ticket, we're we're spending

520
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:12,560
probably, let's say, on a bylaw ticket
that they that the person got the ticket

521
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:18,320
is challenging. The lawyer fees are
about $2,000 for a $500 ticket. So,

522
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:22,480
we're going to fix that up in the smile.
We notice that anomaly, so get that

523
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:25,599
fixed. Uh we're working with the upward
health inspector on matters as

524
00:38:23,839 --> 00:38:29,280
requested. As he comes in and asks for
things uh he doesn't tell us the files,

525
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:33,119
he doesn't tell us anything. He just
requests certain information from us.

526
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:36,800
Want to start working with county on new
messaging or we have been for fire

527
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:41,760
recruitment in Thorsby. If you look on
the uh website,

528
00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:46,800
» yeah, we uh we built it uh here as a
team and then we uh we sent it off to

529
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:49,200
them for approval and uh they weren't
sure what to do with it because they

530
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:52,960
never considered all that we wrote
before. we just want to change it up.

531
00:38:51,119 --> 00:38:56,720
And I went and asked the fire guys and
gals if they'd seen it. They said,

532
00:38:54,240 --> 00:39:01,680
"Yeah, that makes total sense." So um
anyways, that was that was pretty

533
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:04,960
exciting. And uh well, I'm also want to
work with them. We have more meetings

534
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:08,240
scheduled. I want to have a YouTube
channel where we're recruiting all the

535
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:12,960
time where we're talking to people about
things where we're um [clears throat]

536
00:39:10,720 --> 00:39:16,800
uh doing uh a little bit of fire
prevention things rather than having

537
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:21,920
these big seminars and that sort of
thing. So we're we're working on that.

538
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:25,920
Um it's all good. Uh monument
placements, grave identifications in the

539
00:39:23,839 --> 00:39:33,599
grave for requests, graves, cremation
graves, certain were dug and uh entered.

540
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:36,640
Um we were certified blessed debentures
and other government functions overland

541
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:41,359
flooding study completed by the
government and updated participated with

542
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:45,200
Calmar for a groundbreaking ceremony and
honored their request to assist the

543
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:48,400
first nations elder to bless the site.
You can see that signs are being

544
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:52,800
changed. We actually turned uh the
intersection down here at Hanken beyond

545
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:57,520
the Treasury branch. It has to be for we
stop all the way around, not just three

546
00:39:55,280 --> 00:40:01,599
ways. So that's all fixed. And a few
other places we're starting to get

547
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:06,560
either yields or stop signs of the
streets coming out on 50th here because

548
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:11,599
they should be yield because that's a
major artery. So we're working on all

549
00:40:08,720 --> 00:40:15,520
that. Um as you notice, we started
painting the handicap signs today. We

550
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:21,440
got the women side city city office here
done. And uh there's one other thing

551
00:40:19,359 --> 00:40:24,880
that I that we did here. Uh oh, and we
were in the calmar parade.

552
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:30,079
» You know, I guess I almost forgot about
that counselor Audrey and I and she

553
00:40:27,119 --> 00:40:34,880
wrote in the back uh the box through
Candy made a fool out of herself. She's

554
00:40:32,079 --> 00:40:37,760
wearing some kind of sun hat. I was
dressed up like a water drop. I don't

555
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:41,920
know what that was all about. I just
drove and we won't talk about

556
00:40:39,599 --> 00:40:46,720
» No, we won't. I won't say anything. And
that is my report for the summer.

557
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:49,920
» Okay. Questions for Go ahead.
>> The last point about signs being

558
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:53,200
changed.
>> Yeah.

559
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:57,839
» Has it been noted that the sign that
used to be right by Argo where we're

560
00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:01,359
coming up from the construction has
gone?

561
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:04,319
» Yes, we noted that. And we'll order a
new one.

562
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,440
» Okay. I know. I remind
>> why it hasn't been changed is because

563
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:12,319
post is illegal.
>> The old little stupid post that was

564
00:41:09,599 --> 00:41:14,640
that's actually illegal now.
Oh, sorry.

565
00:41:13,359 --> 00:41:20,960
» I just noticed it again today.
>> No, that's great. Thanks, Chris.

566
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:24,000
» Uh on 53rd that all the waters been uh
all the temporary waters off and

567
00:41:22,319 --> 00:41:25,520
everybody's on permanent water. No, the
lines are

568
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:28,880
» not yet.
>> Not yet.

569
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:31,760
» I haven't received any word from
engineers, but I'll know. I'll go to the

570
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,920
I heard one of the residents told me
that it was.

571
00:41:32,720 --> 00:41:37,920
» Mine's done.
>> Yours is on.

572
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,800
» I'll I'll confirm the toolbox. I haven't
received any

573
00:41:40,163 --> 00:41:43,280
» [snorts]
>> Yeah,

574
00:41:42,240 --> 00:41:45,760
» they may have had some that they
couldn't contact those because it was on

575
00:41:44,720 --> 00:41:50,960
the wall again.
>> Yeah, I'll confirm with the engineers at

576
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:56,839
the toolbox and I see I'll send you
a question. Thank you. Anybody else have

577
00:41:53,359 --> 00:41:56,839
any other questions?

578
00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:02,240
» Thank you.
>> Um,

579
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:05,680
» sorry. You said that the construction is
on the budget. Do we have any update on

580
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,920
timing? Is it still second week in
October?

581
00:42:06,319 --> 00:42:11,520
» If the weather cooperates.
>> Yeah, right. I don't

582
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,960
» that's all we did. We had Lake Padernis
again at the start here.

583
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:20,240
» And I talked to the engineers about
that. They said uh everything has been

584
00:42:17,359 --> 00:42:23,440
uh shot uh the grade is proper, but how
they put in the driveways and the old

585
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:28,400
curbs and gutters and how they built the
lots causes them a lot of trouble with

586
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:32,800
getting it all level and getting it the
way it should be. Some of the driveways

587
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:36,560
they may have to cut in. Uh everybody
that had something taken off their

588
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:40,880
property gets it back. So, if it's a
sidewalk, you won't get the blocks back.

589
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:46,079
You probably get a sidewalk, so to
speak. Um, so they they were they were

590
00:42:44,079 --> 00:42:48,880
having trouble. Um, not that they didn't
know what to do, but they they're

591
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:53,119
getting it as close as they can. But
that that one coming out on 778 there,

592
00:42:51,359 --> 00:42:59,119
that's going to be a turkey all the time
with water right there in that corner.

593
00:42:55,200 --> 00:43:04,400
Uh, because everything was built,
however, but u they're they're moving

594
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:08,400
along. Um, when the curb and gutter
stuff comes in, there's about 20 or 30

595
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:12,400
trucks that come in, about 60 guys, and
they have it done in a couple of days.

596
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:16,160
» Cool. It's pretty impressive actually.
>> Who's fitting that cost for the

597
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,079
difference in the grid that's in the
contract?

598
00:43:16,720 --> 00:43:24,079
» That's all that's all part of what they
have to do. Yeah. Yeah. They I mean,

599
00:43:20,240 --> 00:43:29,119
most most companies would um uh would
use that as a change order. They don't.

600
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:32,000
» They just do the job. And we're not
allowing too many changers. I think we

601
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:35,000
have a lot too, but they've all in
budget.

602
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:45,040
» Well, thank you.
All right. Uh, Cindy, please.

603
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:48,880
» Hello. Um, all right. So, over the
summer, I have been liazing with meter

604
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:54,960
core read the new meter installations.
Um, as of today, there are 51 meters

605
00:43:52,480 --> 00:44:00,960
that are still remaining, of which only
27 are in the construction zone. Um the

606
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:05,119
remainder access, plumbing or refusal
issues which are being dealt with. Um

607
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:10,240
all installed meters have also been
placed in billing software. We've sent

608
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:14,880
multiple letters to residents rewater
replacement meeting or booking

609
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:19,280
deadlines. Um we've notified a couple
residents of potential water leaks. So

610
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:25,760
that's the one benefit of the new
software and they were very happy that

611
00:44:22,079 --> 00:44:29,760
we called them. Um
uh we worked on financial policies and

612
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:34,800
bylaws. Submitted the borrowing bylaws
to the loan local loan authority for

613
00:44:32,079 --> 00:44:40,319
dispersement September 30th barring any
court challenges which I do not foresee.

614
00:44:38,079 --> 00:44:44,160
Um submitted all grant amendments and
applications for 2026. All have been

615
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:50,960
accepted. Just waiting for minister's
approval on the CCBF and that's just a

616
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:57,760
rubber stamp basically. um received LGFF
operating funds and that was $88,000. Um

617
00:44:55,119 --> 00:45:02,720
received the remaining 2025 commitment
and the partial payment of 2026

618
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:07,440
estimated commitment from Leuke County
for the recreation agreement. Um I've

619
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:15,599
leazed with tax service regarding the
upcoming tax sale which is happening on

620
00:45:10,720 --> 00:45:21,040
September 22nd I believe. Um we've uh
facilitated installation of new phones

621
00:45:17,599 --> 00:45:27,200
due to new phone system. I submitted and
now have received um the funding for

622
00:45:24,079 --> 00:45:31,520
FCSS for 2026.
Um meetings regarding new recycling plan

623
00:45:29,839 --> 00:45:35,040
that rolls out October 1st and
eliminates the recycle fee on

624
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:39,359
residential bills. Letters went out to
residents in this month's water bills.

625
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:42,880
um letters to commercial and public
service properties regarding

626
00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:47,520
discontinuation of recycling due to new
government program as these types of

627
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:51,920
properties are not eligible. They all
got letters. I asked them to contact me

628
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:58,560
for options as I have some available to
them and I haven't heard from any of

629
00:45:54,240 --> 00:46:03,119
them. um meetings regarding updated
updating agreements uh started working

630
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:07,680
on operating and capital budget plans
process payables and EFT payments

631
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:12,319
process payroll and dealt with resident
inquiries

632
00:46:09,599 --> 00:46:15,880
financial information outstanding
utilities 77,48463

633
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:27,720
of which 6,49915
is subject to shut offstanding

634
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:27,720
taxes $265 $5,566.85

635
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:32,599
of which $4,792.80

636
00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:39,359
is up for tax recovery. And I just want
to note that that is the lowest number I

637
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:42,359
have seen since I've been here. Um, and
$49,428,088

638
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:51,599
is from 2025 tax notices. Our operating
account is sitting at $2.3 million as

639
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:59,079
compared to 1.5 last year. And our
savings account is the same at 1.17. and

640
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:59,079
we have not used our line of credit.

641
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:04,480
» Thank you.
>> You're welcome.

642
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:10,640
» Questions for April. Cindy,
>> just just a comment. Cindy, do you want

643
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:16,400
to talk about the tax sale on the lot?
>> What would you like?

644
00:47:14,079 --> 00:47:20,480
» What about it?
>> Just let council know it's been sold.

645
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:24,400
» Oh, that one. Oh, yeah.
>> Yeah. Not [laughter] the one we're

646
00:47:22,079 --> 00:47:31,200
coming up. What about the one that's
going up for sale? Oh, yes. We did we

647
00:47:26,720 --> 00:47:35,599
did sell one of the tax um the tax sale
properties from last year that we took

648
00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:41,680
possession of it sold uh a couple weeks
ago and uh they are in the process of

649
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:48,079
having the old trailer removed and
putting a new manufactured

650
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:53,520
home on there. So, they are aware of the
one-year

651
00:47:50,079 --> 00:47:58,520
um caveat from council, but they plan on
doing that like right away. So,

652
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:05,280
» have a comment on that one. Yes, they
are working on that property as we

653
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:07,920
speak.
>> Awesome.

654
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:11,880
» Yeah, it looks good now. It's all nice
and mowed. It looks great.

655
00:48:12,240 --> 00:48:19,280
» All right. Any other questions,
comments?

656
00:48:16,240 --> 00:48:22,640
Okay. Uh, parks and recreation, Kelly,
please.

657
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:29,440
» Hello.
>> Okay. This past summer, um, active

658
00:48:26,079 --> 00:48:35,359
memberships in July, we had 161 and
August 169, 12 of them being Art Expos

659
00:48:33,359 --> 00:48:41,119
employees.
So, pretty steady numbers over the

660
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:46,880
summer. Our summer programs we ran for
six weeks from July 7th to August 13th

661
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:52,800
with over 300 kids attending. Uh most of
the programs sold out actually. Um Sam,

662
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:56,559
we had new summer staff this year and it
was phenomenal. It was we had a really

663
00:48:54,880 --> 00:49:02,800
good crew so hopefully we can get him
back next year. Sam did a great job as

664
00:48:59,599 --> 00:49:07,920
usual. Um I started working on the Chris
project which is the climate ready

665
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:12,000
infrastructure service program. So the
engineering company that we're working

666
00:49:09,359 --> 00:49:16,240
with is sustain sustainable projects
group out of Calgary. It'll take about

667
00:49:14,240 --> 00:49:20,319
eight weeks to complete. So they're
doing like a climate resiliency study on

668
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:24,800
our building to see how much our
building can withstand for future

669
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:29,200
climate you know flash floods or
different things. And then um with the

670
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:33,200
priority being on the roof assessment
and the building envelope um to see what

671
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:37,520
options are available. And then they'll
also work with us on funding. So, um,

672
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:45,200
help us with the federal grants that are
quite complicated. So, that's my hope

673
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:50,000
for our roof, uh, financing or funding.
Um, the Roving Energy Management

674
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:54,319
Program, which is the first one I the
first program I did, we're just wrapping

675
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:59,760
that up and with our $10,000 grant,
we've had um 10 smart thermostats

676
00:49:57,119 --> 00:50:03,440
installed throughout the facility. Um,
there's still some money left in that

677
00:50:01,599 --> 00:50:07,280
grant. So, we're looking at a couple
other options. But with the new

678
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:12,240
thermostats now, it's all like
controlled from my phone, like from an

679
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:15,920
app. There's alerts. So, if we lose
power in the night, our building

680
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:23,040
temperature drops, I'll be notified
directly on my cell phone. Bonus, but a

681
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:27,599
good thing, right? So, it's pretty neat.
So, it'll it'll be nice. We haven't

682
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:32,400
implemented them yet, like using them
because we're not calling for heat yet

683
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:39,040
in the facility. But, um, the hockey
schedule was pretty much probably 95%

684
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:45,119
finalized in early August and basically
we're fully booked for the whole season.

685
00:50:42,240 --> 00:50:49,680
» So, still finalizing little tweaks here
and there, but uh it's it's good. Um,

686
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:54,400
we'll also be hosting seven hockey
tournaments this year, which is from

687
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:58,480
years past. Um, so I requested three
weekends from West 39 that they did not

688
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:03,680
book games in those weekends so I could
sell it to out of town tournaments

689
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:09,680
because that's where the money is. Um,
and so they sold I sold them instantly.

690
00:51:06,240 --> 00:51:15,280
So it was it was great. So
should help with our revenue there and

691
00:51:11,599 --> 00:51:19,920
West 39 was uh fine with accommodating
that. Uh, the arena floor project. So

692
00:51:18,240 --> 00:51:24,480
we're wrapping that up. So, it's
complete chaos over at the complex right

693
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:28,240
now in the final stages, but boards and
glass have pretty much all been

694
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:32,960
installed. We're just uh the new the new
glass and netting is going to be coming

695
00:51:30,079 --> 00:51:37,680
up putting up this end of this week. It
should be um they should be completely

696
00:51:35,119 --> 00:51:45,680
done by next Friday at which time we'll
be start cooling our floor to build ice.

697
00:51:41,599 --> 00:51:51,920
Um brine is being uh was started today
to u charge the system and we're

698
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:56,720
starting the plant either Thursday.
Still expected opening is on September

699
00:51:53,920 --> 00:52:01,359
28th.
Um summer maintenance. Jenna did a great

700
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:06,800
job even with all the moisture and
whatnot. Um wre havoc on our grounds and

701
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:12,400
thank you to public works for helping
with our hay fields. It was it still is

702
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:16,640
a challenge right now, but it was it's
great that we were able to get your

703
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:25,280
help. Um, baseball bleachers. So, that
project is uh being done right now. So,

704
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:29,760
the um the gravel pads with borders have
been completed for the existing diamond

705
00:52:27,839 --> 00:52:34,240
for the old diamond. We're also going to
be doing the same thing for the new

706
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:38,640
historic if we have enough funds. Um so
cleaning up the old set of bleachers the

707
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:42,720
grounds around it. So it looks really
good. We have

708
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:49,599
um combined the home plate will be the
big bleachers. It's I think eight rows I

709
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:52,640
believe eight eight rows 21 ft wide. And
then we had two small bleachers that

710
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:57,839
like three row bleachers. So, we moved
on to third base and first base and put

711
00:52:55,119 --> 00:53:03,280
gravel pads around there so it just
looks nice and clean and professional.

712
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:10,079
So, that should be probably wrapped up
um

713
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:14,160
by end of next week for sure. So, yeah,
and I'm probably forgetting lots of

714
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:20,559
stuff, but that's the end of my report.
>> Thanks for that. Um, are you uh planning

715
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:24,400
any uh bucket dropping ceremony or
anything on the 28th?

716
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:27,440
» Um, possibly. Yes.
>> I know. I just I'm not saying you have

717
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:31,280
to. I'm just asking.
>> Yeah. I talked I had a meeting with

718
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:35,119
student on Friday actually and asked and
we talked about like some sort of ribbon

719
00:53:33,119 --> 00:53:39,520
cutting ceremony
>> and I set a puck drop at our first game

720
00:53:37,599 --> 00:53:45,680
maybe like or something.
>> Cool. His suggestion was just to do a a

721
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:50,400
simple ribbon cutting with counters in
the afternoon.

722
00:53:47,119 --> 00:53:57,720
» So, keep it simple. Um, [laughter]
>> what's that?

723
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,720
» That's okay. Um,

724
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:05,280
» skate or what?
>> In all honesty, like a game, the first

725
00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:10,079
game wouldn't be probably until mid
October at the earliest.

726
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:14,640
» Yeah. So, if we open to the community on
the 28th, like, you know, it would be a

727
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:20,640
few weeks before there would even be a
game. Um, so we could do something like

728
00:54:18,319 --> 00:54:25,520
» I just need to get it to the point where
I know for sure we're opening on the

729
00:54:22,319 --> 00:54:32,400
28th. Yeah. You know, but we could do um
like a ribbon cutting and maybe like

730
00:54:30,079 --> 00:54:38,000
had mentioned maybe a staff function or
team function on the ice. We could maybe

731
00:54:35,119 --> 00:54:40,640
incorporate something all together.
We just got to get through a few other

732
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:43,920
things first.
>> I think, you know, I mean, we've got it

733
00:54:42,079 --> 00:54:47,680
done. I think it'd be worthwhile, you
know, saying, "Hey, look,

734
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:52,079
» Oh, yeah. Yeah. Connect 39 has already
reached out to me to make sure they're

735
00:54:50,240 --> 00:54:54,800
» radio station
three times."

736
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:59,040
» Yeah. I saw they just did an article on
us last last week. They published it.

737
00:54:57,119 --> 00:55:03,359
» Connect 39 reached out because they want
to make sure we're on the front page of

738
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:08,400
the newspaper for their ribbon cutting.
>> So, um, but yes, so we will have

739
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:11,040
something It's just not until we get a
little

740
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:14,960
» I was going to ask what's there to bring
in the FCW Critters hockey team. Is that

741
00:55:13,839 --> 00:55:19,200
a possibility?
>> Make a fun game.

742
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:25,040
» I I think you have to book pretty uh uh
I mean if you want it from now maybe

743
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:30,000
maybe in February or March aspect
>> when we've had the critters it's been

744
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:35,119
booked like three or four months in
advance. And the one time we got it and

745
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:40,400
cuz I heard it on the radio, they were
looking for somebody cuz somebody backed

746
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:43,280
out. But usually they open that up.
>> Yeah. I'm

747
00:55:41,359 --> 00:55:48,160
» I think it might already been open and
they're already probably booked for this

748
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:52,720
half the season.
>> I guess I know it's a really fun

749
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:56,079
community event. It's also a big event
though.

750
00:55:54,319 --> 00:56:02,000
It's not something I can take on right
now, but um yeah, that would be like

751
00:56:00,079 --> 00:56:06,160
wonderful for Western.
>> Oh, good stuff. I like I saw the big up

752
00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:09,359
there with all the alcohol today. So,
>> yes.

753
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:14,400
» Yeah, that's the Brian the the Brian
class. Um yeah, we also um we took down

754
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:18,640
all of our banners. Like it was our
walls were very cluttered and kind of

755
00:56:16,319 --> 00:56:24,480
junky looking, so we're only going to be
displaying the provincial championship

756
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:30,240
banners going forward. And um right now
we actually have Janine um I want to say

757
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:33,200
bro, but it's not Macintosh the artist,
>> right?

758
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:36,960
» She's doing a huge mural on our on the
wall right now. So people are going to

759
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:40,799
» they're going to see the Bucks logo when
they come back. We did not take out Down

760
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:45,440
Thunder.
But um yeah, she's working right now

761
00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:52,760
just wrapping it up. So
>> it'll look good in there.

762
00:56:48,079 --> 00:56:52,760
» All right. Thank you. Any questions?

763
00:56:53,119 --> 00:57:00,720
No.
All right. Up at work, please.

764
00:56:58,559 --> 00:57:06,880
Hey. Um, I'm just going to quickly
mention the first thing for that isn't

765
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:12,079
on here. Um, and it was mostly me. I'm
not 10 hornet. What I am doing is trying

766
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:17,599
to say I my guys were busy, so I ended
up doing it. I spent I can't even count

whatever. Literally days and days and

769
00:57:24,079 --> 00:57:33,200
days over the last last month. So, which
Cindy knows uh her and I together worked

770
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:36,720
continuously. So, that's not written
down here. I just wanted to mention it

771
00:57:34,799 --> 00:57:40,720
because I completely forgot about it.
Soon as I thought about it, I got a

772
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:45,280
headache again. [laughter]
Anyway, moving on. uh monthly meter

Um Casey and Cole continue training with
Dave at the water treatment plant. And I

775
00:57:52,319 --> 00:57:59,760
should mention uh they're both um
Casey's going for his level two. Cole is

776
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:04,160
going for his level one so they can

mention Liam. He has done a great job on

786
00:58:53,200 --> 00:59:00,799
a very, very tough job. Um, training the
summer students. Uh, we did have pretty

787
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:04,079
good summer students this year. I
actually have uh no complaints about

788
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:11,200
them.
um fixing the brake at the river intake.

789
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:16,720
Huge project which is now done and we
have success in that which is awesome.

790
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:22,000
And uh we got our uh a new pump online
at the lift station which is which was a

791
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:27,280
big part of the storm sewer drain
issues. Um so we now have two pumps

792
00:59:25,119 --> 00:59:32,720
working. They actually work in tandem
together. One turn one turns on then the

793
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:37,280
other takes turns turn pumps on. So
they're constantly we have two pops

794
00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:42,480
constantly working not at the same time
but in in tandem together which is the

795
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:49,680
first time in from what I understand
almost 15 years that they've had two

796
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:53,599
bumps working at stations. Um yeah I
think that's about it. I I'm sure I'm

797
00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:56,000
for
>> Thank you. So summer students all done

798
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:58,960
now.
>> Yes they are.

799
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:03,520
» Unfortunately.
>> Yeah. Okay.

800
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:10,240
» Yeah. It's yeah, just having them doing
black grass cutting is a huge load of

801
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:14,386
you know the three of us that work for
public works.

802
01:00:12,366 --> 01:00:14,386
[laughter]

803
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:18,400
» Thank you. Anybody have any questions?
Yeah, go ahead.

804
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:21,920
» I don't have any questions your worship,
but I thought I better but two things.

805
01:00:20,559 --> 01:00:25,280
I'm kind of like Chris. I forgot a
couple things. And first of all, I

806
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:29,040
screwed up my face because I was hoping
we'd have like at the first meeting have

807
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:34,319
a ribbon cutting near the puck drop.
That's okay. Uh we will have some sort

808
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:39,119
of ribbon cutting before that road opens
on 53rd and we'll get you get your

809
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:42,240
pictures in the paper. So make sure that
um

810
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:45,200
know that you're going to see Artic Spa
where we've got our bulk station. It's

811
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:48,640
going to be fenced up a little bit here
for the next little while. They're doing

812
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:52,319
a big online sale. They're putting their
equipment over there. Plenty of room for

813
01:00:50,799 --> 01:00:58,079
all our big trucks and that to get in.
We've taken a look at all that. Um we

814
01:00:55,280 --> 01:01:01,440
were talking about that today. And uh
remind me after council remind me

815
01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:06,960
tomorrow. I talked about it spots about
a matter for you Chris and I think I

816
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:11,280
solved the problem for us today. So um
nothing bad. So anyways, you'll see them

817
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:14,720
starting to fence it up today and
they're just selling all their stuff

818
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:18,160
online auction. It'll be there until
probably the end of September. But like

819
01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:22,720
I said, we've got plenty of room for our
trucks to get in. I pretty much talk to

820
01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:26,720
every uh trucker that's come in on that
golf station. I'm trying to point to

821
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:31,280
selfie when I'm working late. I I do my
rounds and so they're all really

822
01:01:29,119 --> 01:01:35,520
pleased. I was there with a guy uh the
other night from Crow and I said, "How

823
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:39,839
long you been here?" He had a 13,000
liter try and he said, "I've been here

824
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:42,240
15 minutes. I'm half full already."
>> Oh, wow.

825
01:01:40,799 --> 01:01:45,440
» Yeah. I said, "You're okay with that?"
He goes, "I love it. That's perfect." He

826
01:01:43,839 --> 01:01:50,559
said, "This is so easy to get in and out
of. It's fast. It's clean." He said,

827
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:53,200
"Uh, we don't have a long haul." Uh and
and when he was just getting ready to

828
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:58,960
pull out because we each chatted for a
while, uh two more bulkers pulled in

829
01:01:56,319 --> 01:02:02,559
after that uh and just waiting in line.
So, it's uh it's really cool. And most

830
01:02:01,119 --> 01:02:05,440
of these are for potatoes now. They're
pulling water for potato farming. So,

831
01:02:04,079 --> 01:02:10,079
they got to get the potatoes out of the
ground. So, we're chatting about that,

832
01:02:07,599 --> 01:02:18,640
too. Drowning underneath, cement on the
top. So, and uh yeah, that's why.

833
01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:22,960
Thanks. All right. Thank you.
All right. uh family community sports

834
01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:26,079

or you just want to accept it?

835
01:02:24,319 --> 01:02:30,319
» Uh no, I'll just I'll just highlight a
few things uh now that Ry's back from

couple of things that are coming. So,

coming up in the fall we'll need mental

847
01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:28,880
health support on a few we already know
that so it's going to be a long winter

848
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:33,680
but it's important we do it properly.
Uh the CPO uh is coming at the end of

849
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:40,000
the month. CPO will come at the end of
the month. Okay. Thank you for that.

850
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:46,720
Questions? Anybody?
All right, then. If not, then uh

851
01:03:43,839 --> 01:03:50,960
ladies at the back, questions, comments,
anything.

852
01:03:49,119 --> 01:03:54,400
» Just point, do you want to accept the
administration reports from?

853
01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:57,680
» I'm so sorry. You're correct. Can I get
a motion to accept the administrative

854
01:03:55,839 --> 01:04:00,319
reports for information?
>> Sure. I'll motion to accept the

855
01:03:59,039 --> 01:04:04,960
administration reports. All
>> in favor? That is car.

856
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:08,160
Now, go ahead. you were going to say
something back there.

857
01:04:07,514 --> 01:04:15,359
[clears throat]
>> Yes. I'm not sure whether it's dealing

858
01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:20,720
with council or um communities in bloom.
The only comment I've had from a number

859
01:04:17,839 --> 01:04:25,039
of people is why do we always have
purple towers,

860
01:04:22,720 --> 01:04:31,760
» pink,
whatever? Why can't they have yellow or

861
01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:38,400
red or white?
>> Okay. I mean,

862
01:04:35,359 --> 01:04:44,240
it's not communion blue. So, the flowers
aren't from community bloom. So,

863
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:48,599
» community bloom had a comment what pink
means. And it's supposed

864
01:04:49,359 --> 01:04:51,839
to
>> I don't know where you read that or

865
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:53,680
heard that, but
>> I read it.

866
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:57,119
» Okay.
>> But I can't remember exactly the

867
01:04:55,359 --> 01:05:01,839
wording, but it was a positive thing
what pink means. But I'm with her. I

868
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:07,200
like to have another color. Some of them
are mixed in with more than one color.

869
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:13,039
But do you have to have pink beer?
>> Well, you wish I can ask that question.

870
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:18,799
» I think
I'm done with you. I'm just teasing you.

871
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:22,640
Um, we pink and purple, but the purple
didn't come through this year. So, what

872
01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:26,480
we're going to do next year, yellow is a
really harsh color and and it doesn't

873
01:05:25,039 --> 01:05:31,520
stand out the boulevard very well
because it gets mixed up with a

874
01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:35,760
painting. Um, actually
>> pink. Pink looks good. So, what we might

875
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:40,480
do next year is we'll go one plant or
pink. All pink. One plant are all

876
01:05:38,079 --> 01:05:45,200
purple. White doesn't show up very well
either. Red is very harsh. I think

877
01:05:43,359 --> 01:05:48,240
there's another couple of colors we
could probably pick pick. But that's

878
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:51,599
Cheryl's
that's Cheryl's pink. But we'll we'll

879
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:56,400
try and we [snorts] talked about
staggering next year. So, one's all

880
01:05:53,359 --> 01:06:01,520
blue, one's pink. Actually works well. I
have seen in German their pink they have

881
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:07,160
another color come through like mix.
>> We tried doing that and the pink ate the

882
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:07,160
purple. I think

883
01:06:07,599 --> 01:06:12,799
» I wasn't very happy that it was all
pink.

884
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:15,960
» Cindy likes purple and I like pink. So
too bad.

885
01:06:19,039 --> 01:06:24,240
» September.
>> Oh, they're stunning this year. So we we

886
01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:26,480
talked about each punch around a
different color now.

887
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:30,480
» Okay.
>> Yeah.

888
01:06:28,319 --> 01:06:35,079
» Rand.
>> Okay.

889
01:06:31,119 --> 01:06:35,079
» Okay. Anything else?

890
01:06:38,820 --> 01:06:46,880
[laughter]
>> I noticed the handicap signs. I'm very

891
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:53,200
I saw that tonight this afternoon.
Um,

892
01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:58,559
I have a question for Sue. I think
recycling are the tenant because it's

893
01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:03,039
changing what we can put in the blue bag
October 1st. Are the tenants being is

894
01:07:01,359 --> 01:07:04,960
there somewhere where the tenants can
come and get information on that from

895
01:07:04,559 --> 01:07:11,960
the office?
>> Oh, yeah. Just come into the office

896
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:11,960
and I'm not a homeowner. I won't get

897
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:16,880
» just come into the into the office.
They'll give you a copy of the new

898
01:07:15,599 --> 01:07:21,920
flyer.
>> Okay. Okay. I didn't know what that was.

899
01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:25,359
I'll print it. I'll give it to you.
Okay. Thank you.

900
01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:29,039
» Thanks, Jesse.
>> We

901
01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:34,760
were
about year ago. We'll discuss it at the

902
01:07:31,039 --> 01:07:34,760
last meeting counter.

903
01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:37,826
The [sighs]

904
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:44,960
the alley behind 46 has a problem in the
fall where people drink their hot tubs

905
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:49,680
in their pools down the alley instead of
out the front in the storm brain.

906
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:55,680
I know it goes through storm drain, but
it has to go a mile to get there. And

907
01:07:54,240 --> 01:08:00,079
Johnny said they were going to work on a
law that I didn't know how to count.

908
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:05,280
I I've been researching it. Thanks,
Wendy, for that. I've been researching

909
01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:11,280
it. They're they're kind of few and far
between. Um, as far as where do you

910
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:14,240
drain this sort of stuff. Um, because
we'd have to charge them if they're

911
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:17,920
draining it down the alley, which we
shouldn't be doing anyway, all the

912
01:08:15,599 --> 01:08:20,880
chemicals. So, um, I will say it's still
in research mode, but now that I know

913
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:25,759
where the hot tubs are, they'll be
receiving them. I've been driving around

914
01:08:23,759 --> 01:08:32,960
looking. There's a huge one over there
by uh in Madison there. It's big. So, we

915
01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:35,359
can't just let it go in the field this
particular. So, I know where they all

916
01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:40,400
are.
>> Thank you, Chris and staff. Thank God

917
01:08:37,440 --> 01:08:42,880
and staff for maintaining their behind
46 Street. They did a good job this

918
01:08:42,159 --> 01:08:47,912
summer.
>> You didn't get the bill.

919
01:08:44,719 --> 01:08:47,912
» Oh, me. [laughter]

920
01:08:48,799 --> 01:08:57,120
There's still I know it came from the
heavy rain. There's three brutal

921
01:08:54,400 --> 01:09:05,159
potholes on 50th Avenue between 46th
Street and 47th Street. And I suggest

922
01:09:02,159 --> 01:09:05,159
you,

923
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:13,199
» you know, I
>> Yeah. One thing I I mean, the guys had

924
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:17,040
the guys had all the potholes. My place
has got some bad potholes on that little

925
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:19,600
street. They're all done. They're all
good. The minute it rains,

926
01:09:18,719 --> 01:09:23,600
» Yeah.
>> you got to start all over again. So, I

927
01:09:21,359 --> 01:09:28,000
it's it's hard with that all that rain
and those potholes, the gravel,

928
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:33,359
» you can't you can't seem you can't see
can't keep them back. You just can't

929
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:37,279
» like it's like I don't know how many
times you've been over there and uh

930
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:41,199
» it was good and then all of a sudden it
rains and it's back to

931
01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:45,359
» I'm not complaining. I'm just asking.
>> Yeah. Y

932
01:09:42,239 --> 01:09:51,359
» are the fire department having Halloween
thing this year? Last year they had from

933
01:09:48,480 --> 01:09:56,080
5:30 to 7:00 p.m. on Halloween night and
it didn't get posted or announced 5:00

934
01:09:53,759 --> 01:10:00,320
p.m. and I just found it took away from
the residential thing. That's one having

935
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:04,400
a sing
or golden

936
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:10,640
I don't mean to complain what they had.
What did they have? They're giving out

937
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:13,880
candy. But all the kids went there and
said come

938
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:21,679
» I shall speak to the chief.
>> I just I don't mean to complain. I mean

939
01:10:19,440 --> 01:10:26,000
it's a good thing but you know what I
had 150 at my door so they came to my

940
01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:30,640
door. I don't know.
>> Yeah it's amazing.

941
01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:34,400
» They don't like me. They don't come. And
I noticed today

942
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:39,560
» that side of town the kids they they all
go to the oh cross the crosshair

943
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:48,960
came here today and noticing the
superintendent and Chris at

944
01:10:47,069 --> 01:10:55,120
[clears throat] the pharmacy
one of the parking spots. I think it was

945
01:10:51,600 --> 01:11:00,000
the opposite side of those lines that
pertain to the handicap spot. In fact,

946
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:06,400
just before you printed the curb,
there's a big drop now. And I know what

947
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:10,960
I'm assuming that's from all the rain.
Dr.

948
01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:13,600
» Do you mean drop in the pavement or drop
in the sidewalk?

949
01:11:12,159 --> 01:11:15,840
» Dropping the pavement in front of the
sidewalk.

950
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:19,880
» Okay.
Oh, I just wonder if it's

951
01:11:20,239 --> 01:11:25,679
» is it to the corner by bumper to bumper
or is it further down by Ter Park?

952
01:11:24,159 --> 01:11:29,280
» Further down by two.
>> Okay, I know what it's about.

953
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:32,719
» Okay. I just I've never noticed it
before, but I noticed it today and I

954
01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:35,120
thought, whoa, I haven't been sliding in
there.

955
01:11:33,199 --> 01:11:39,360
» Well, that was a new fill, so we'll have
to look at some more work there. Okay,

956
01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:42,320
» I thank
Oh my goodness. Thank you for

957
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:46,120
everything.
Thanks for doing

958
01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,800
» complain.

959
01:11:50,159 --> 01:11:54,960
» We expect it.
>> Thank you.

960
01:11:52,560 --> 01:12:00,159
» I have a question for Kelly.
So, at one point in time, we used to

961
01:11:57,440 --> 01:12:06,719
have a different town flag.
Do you know which one I'm talking about?

962
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:09,360
» Like the old logo, like the green logo
>> kind of look like

963
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:13,360
» had a cow on it.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Do we still have one of

964
01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:18,000
those kicking around?
>> I don't

965
01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:24,400
at that complex.
>> Maybe the historic society has one

966
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:28,400
» a flag.
>> Yeah,

967
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:32,800
to this logo here.
>> They had a they had a

968
01:12:30,719 --> 01:12:36,000
» flowers on it or flowers
>> for for

969
01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:39,760
» Yeah.
>> I haven't seen anything around in years.

970
01:12:38,480 --> 01:12:44,480
I know there's nothing here and we
cleaned everything out. I just thought

971
01:12:42,159 --> 01:12:50,159
maybe you guys might have wanted
>> Yeah, the historical society might

972
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:56,120
because they took a lot of history stuff
over to the community hall when they

973
01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:56,120
first started.

974
01:12:57,040 --> 01:13:03,440
» One more thing.
>> Sorry, I

975
01:13:01,199 --> 01:13:08,800
» this is a compliment and I can't quit
emphasizing this. It's so beautiful to

976
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:12,880
see our end of 49 Avenue have no cars
and garbage trucks. It just looks so

977
01:13:10,719 --> 01:13:16,800
beautiful when you out there cars parked
there. It just I'm sorry. It just makes

978
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:21,679
my day.
>> Just makes you want to cry and excite.

979
01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:25,199
» No, I just want to do a happy dance and
I can't. [laughter]

980
01:13:24,239 --> 01:13:31,280
» Oh my goodness.
>> It just see a clear trail through that

981
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:34,640
that truck. It's just unbelievable.
Took us a year to get there, but it's

982
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:37,199
okay.
Yeah.

983
01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:40,480
» All right. Well, thank you all. Once
again, I'm sorry about my cardian

984
01:13:39,336 --> 01:13:45,280
[laughter]
and and you Well, you had your chance to

01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:50,960
» It was the meeting. I was happy.
>> I just jumped in there about half an

987
01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:56,000
hour late when you're all done. And then
>> we just wanted to make sure you're okay.

988
01:13:53,040 --> 01:14:01,280
» Yeah. You had a little worried.
>> I just had my phone in the garage and I

989
01:13:58,159 --> 01:14:04,480
just got in the
>> We're just going to have a shower. Good

990
01:14:02,719 --> 01:14:08,960
thing that didn't catch me. I still have
my clothes. [laughter]

991
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:12,080
» We phoned your wife in the club, sir.
>> Yeah.

992
01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:16,400
» She was.
>> Anyhow, sorry. I will adjourn the

993
01:14:13,679 --> 01:14:18,239
meeting and then we're good to go.
>> Wonderful.

994
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:24,640
» Thank you.
>> So, after 14 messages, I just checked.

995
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,640
The meaning.
