[0:02] thank you [0:04] good afternoon and welcome to the director [0:08] meeting on wednesday february [0:27] of just going back policy can't be here tonight [0:31] so that's the regret [0:34] my disclosure conflict of interest i have uh [0:38] eight what is it [0:40] eight feet thank you [0:50] okay go to the approval of the minute for [0:53] december 15th sometimes [1:10] this business arriving [1:15] no presentations tonight infrastructure committee councilor burns [1:20] thank you madam mayor the committee met on february 3rd [1:25] um information's in the package if anybody has questions [1:30] we will be putting forward the suggested cost in the budget for [1:34] increased security at our utility buildings [1:37] following the break-ins that we had this early winter [1:42] and [Music] [1:45] anybody has any questions what's that entail counselor [1:50] security [1:54] here would actually poke back to our scada system [1:56] and uh it would allow us to have security at every single one of our [2:01] buildings so if there was alert it would automatically go through to [2:05] whoever's on call to to follow up [2:09] um because right now there's no security at these buildings [2:13] and when we're talking about uh like this one that was broken into was [2:19] that the north river lagoon uv building for example [2:25] now at that time there were other businesses in cornwall that were broken [2:28] into at the same time but that doesn't negate the fact that [2:31] when you're discussing water supply and sewer [2:34] that we need to be proactive to increase security in those areas [2:41] so was that going to be tendered or something or we just [2:46] well it would be part of our budget discussion um because it's an additional [2:51] piece of software that can be hooked up to our current data system okay [2:55] otherwise we'd be looking at putting in telephone lines with these [2:58] buildings where there's no telephone currently okay and [3:02] overall a long-term cost is projected to be quite higher if we [3:08] work with like a security company or anything like that [3:10] but hooking it up to software that we already have it increases the safety [3:14] utilizes the system that we already have in [3:17] is security cameras a part of that it's to my knowledge it is yeah [3:23] okay great [3:25] i'm just gonna ask kevin is it our shelly is the security camera part of [3:29] that i think he actually had some security [3:32] yeah i think what they're talking about here is audible alarms that this [3:35] counselor barnes said to be tied into the scada system so that that'll ring [3:38] automatically whoever's on call and then they can order proper authority that [3:42] said okay [3:44] although [3:54] my understanding is that the cameras didn't catch a good picture [3:58] it was too [4:06] and this would be it's a panties too like if somebody's breaking into the [4:09] building they would know then [4:12] to call the irish have someone you know attend versus [4:16] you know looking at camera footage after the fact after whatever's been done [4:22] no good good great [4:25] just one quick well the sidewalk contract is operating [4:30] so this is going to go to [4:34] correct yes then [4:37] yes that contracts [4:41] done at the end of this year right yes yeah [4:46] and we also discussed the pesticide bylaw and an educational campaign around [4:51] that so we'll be doing a little bit in the [4:53] social media coming into the spring just to educate [4:57] residents a little bit more on proactive approaches that they can [5:02] do themselves as far as lawn management to prevent like cinch [5:07] bugs for example or other issues so [5:13] anybody have any further questions uh just a chair burns um [5:19] was
