1 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:16,940 I would like a motion to adopt the agenda of today's council meeting by councilor Baldwin, 2 00:08:16,940 --> 00:08:23,340 seconded, Council of Oppen, Paul in favor. Motion is carried and will deal with the minutes of 3 00:08:23,340 --> 00:08:28,380 the last meeting on August 11th, the motion to adopt the minutes of that regular council meeting, 4 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:35,820 councilor Izler, seconded councilor Dues, on favor. Motion is carried. Our next thing will be our 5 00:08:35,820 --> 00:08:37,140 mayor and councilors reports. 6 00:08:46,690 --> 00:08:52,170 So in the 12th of August, I had an EMCR emergency management 7 00:08:52,170 --> 00:08:57,590 climate readiness, situational briefing. We have them every now or right now I think week. 8 00:08:58,210 --> 00:09:04,090 So I did one on the 19th as well just to let us all know what the fire and belt situation 9 00:09:04,090 --> 00:09:11,450 was like in the province. On the 20th of August I intended as RDC K board meeting. On the 22nd 10 00:09:11,450 --> 00:09:16,470 myself and several other counselors here we're at the Creston Farmers Market for public engagement 11 00:09:17,190 --> 00:09:21,430 and we have lots of chat with people and the one thing that's out on there is the 12 00:09:21,430 --> 00:09:28,750 The Rolling Barrage motorcycle group stopped in Preston on Friday at the fire hall, several 13 00:09:28,750 --> 00:09:35,310 hundred bikers there, and they are a group that has been assembled across Canada, former 14 00:09:35,310 --> 00:09:41,050 firefighters, police officers, and other emergency personnel who have had PTSD and they 15 00:09:41,050 --> 00:09:46,590 unified as a group to bring awareness to this, and we're very supportive of each other. 16 00:09:46,590 --> 00:09:52,930 It's so nice to have them stop in our community and they all said when they looked around 17 00:09:52,930 --> 00:09:56,350 what a beautiful place we live in and I agree with them. 18 00:09:57,790 --> 00:09:58,930 That's their do us. 19 00:09:59,410 --> 00:10:00,130 Thank you. 20 00:10:00,350 --> 00:10:05,870 August 17th and August, we had two situation table meetings last week, so on August 17th 21 00:10:05,870 --> 00:10:12,350 and 18th and then I attended the candidate readiness workshop on August 20th and the invitation 22 00:10:12,350 --> 00:10:20,290 from the museum to honor the outgoing students, and then also the farmer's market on the 22nd 23 00:10:20,290 --> 00:10:20,790 of August. 24 00:10:21,730 --> 00:10:27,050 Councillor Baldwin, that just the farmer's market is the quietest 10 days of, can remember, 25 00:10:27,290 --> 00:10:30,510 and so, let's try to hear Vimeo on that. 26 00:10:30,690 --> 00:10:31,590 Oh, yeah, that was great. 27 00:10:32,430 --> 00:10:34,030 Yeah, that's what I was talking about. 28 00:10:34,750 --> 00:10:38,950 The 20th day, the 10th of the 10th is ready, it's workshopped in the 22nd of the farmer's 29 00:10:38,950 --> 00:10:39,090 market. 30 00:10:40,250 --> 00:10:41,270 Anyone else? 31 00:10:41,790 --> 00:10:42,430 Councilor Locke? 32 00:10:42,870 --> 00:10:45,770 Yeah, on October 17th and October. 33 00:10:46,250 --> 00:10:47,150 I'm sorry, October. 34 00:10:47,790 --> 00:10:50,190 August 17th and August 18th. 35 00:10:50,210 --> 00:10:52,970 Put your glasses on and you'll see that's an A and not a no. 36 00:10:54,050 --> 00:10:55,730 Situation table meetings. 37 00:10:57,650 --> 00:11:02,370 August 18th as well emergency management planning committee meeting in the afternoon. 38 00:11:03,050 --> 00:11:04,510 And on August 19th, 39 00:11:04,510 --> 00:11:08,110 I was in Nelson at the joint resource recovery committee meeting. 40 00:11:09,710 --> 00:11:10,790 Any other reports? 41 00:11:12,250 --> 00:11:12,990 You're done. 42 00:11:13,150 --> 00:11:16,830 Can I have a motion that the verbal and written reports of council be received? 43 00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:19,030 Councillor Eisner, seconded, Councillor Holland? 44 00:11:19,650 --> 00:11:19,990 All in favour? 45 00:11:20,810 --> 00:11:21,990 Motion is carried. 46 00:11:23,130 --> 00:11:24,050 And we'll write along. 47 00:11:24,330 --> 00:11:25,010 We will announce. 48 00:11:25,930 --> 00:11:30,030 We now entertain the motion that council resolves itself into a committee out the whole. 49 00:11:30,030 --> 00:11:32,550 Councilor Dumas, second, the Councilor Baldwin, 50 00:11:32,870 --> 00:11:35,290 one of your favour, but most importantly, it's clear. 51 00:11:35,990 --> 00:11:37,550 That brings us to our delegation, 52 00:11:37,990 --> 00:11:40,650 which is Canadian Cancer Society, Pan-Walkington, 53 00:11:41,210 --> 00:11:44,970 100 radon, let's get challenged for Preston B.C. 54 00:11:45,830 --> 00:11:47,690 So you are on pattern, please. 55 00:11:48,050 --> 00:11:50,830 Thank you very much, Mayor Duboon and Council 56 00:11:50,830 --> 00:11:52,350 for allowing me to present. 57 00:11:52,850 --> 00:11:55,770 We worked with the town of Preston 58 00:11:56,170 --> 00:11:58,850 to distribute radon test kits over the last winter, 59 00:11:58,850 --> 00:12:01,430 and I'm presenting the report summary of that project. 60 00:12:04,890 --> 00:12:11,690 So the 100-tasket challenge is a program that is one of the initiatives of take action 61 00:12:11,690 --> 00:12:12,150 on radon. 62 00:12:12,290 --> 00:12:14,890 And take action on radon is funded by health Canada. 63 00:12:15,510 --> 00:12:21,350 It's run by the Canadian Cancer Society and CAST, which is our radon association with the 64 00:12:21,350 --> 00:12:25,330 intent of raising awareness across the country and working with various groups to do that. 65 00:12:26,030 --> 00:12:27,390 It's a turnkey program. 66 00:12:27,390 --> 00:12:36,650 It's free, but we certainly appreciate the staff and all the support that we had from your team in the community to run it. 67 00:12:38,170 --> 00:12:44,810 We were able to distribute test kits throughout the community, raise awareness as we did that. 68 00:12:45,910 --> 00:12:51,550 And then a couple of the other goals that we have among this program are to generate data, which I'm presenting today. 69 00:12:51,550 --> 00:12:54,030 and also to inspire legacy programs. 70 00:12:54,370 --> 00:12:57,170 So I'll just refer to my end slides about some resources 71 00:12:57,170 --> 00:12:58,750 that Health Canada has developed 72 00:12:58,750 --> 00:13:00,710 to help support communities such as yourself 73 00:13:00,710 --> 00:13:02,570 with continuing discussion about Raidon. 74 00:13:03,290 --> 00:13:07,250 The Hundertesket Challenge is in just wrapping up its eights year. 75 00:13:07,450 --> 00:13:09,810 So we've been able to work with communities across the country. 76 00:13:10,590 --> 00:13:13,130 We have worked in all provinces 77 00:13:13,130 --> 00:13:16,090 in one territory as well. 78 00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:18,250 We have worked with some First Nations and MAT groups. 79 00:13:18,250 --> 00:13:25,250 groups. We have about a 74% return rate on our program and part of that reason is because 80 00:13:25,250 --> 00:13:30,850 we have a structure to it. So, although testing for rate on is easy, there are a lot of competing 81 00:13:30,850 --> 00:13:35,470 priorities in our life and we find people tend to forget to return it. So, the program is 82 00:13:35,470 --> 00:13:39,970 structured in such a way to support people's all the way through the testing program. 83 00:13:40,570 --> 00:13:46,510 And then one of our other priorities is making sure that people actually reduce their rate 84 00:13:46,510 --> 00:13:52,050 exposure. So although testing and the program really involves just the first step, we do want 85 00:13:52,050 --> 00:13:58,690 to support people with understanding what mitigation is and so our surveys show that about 58 percent 86 00:13:58,690 --> 00:14:03,730 of our past participants have taken action to reduce it if their levels were above 200. 87 00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:10,150 I have included all the communities that we've worked with in your package. I won't go through all 88 00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:14,570 those but just for your reference you can see we've worked with a number of other BC communities. 89 00:14:15,150 --> 00:14:20,130 So, the reason that we're prioritizing this program is radon is linked to lung cancer. 90 00:14:20,490 --> 00:14:25,570 So, health Canada estimates about 3,000 people per year are dying of radon-related lung 91 00:14:25,570 --> 00:14:26,010 cancer. 92 00:14:26,690 --> 00:14:31,450 It is the number one cause of lung cancer for people who don't smoke, and it is a contributing 93 00:14:31,450 --> 00:14:33,790 factor to those who do have a smoking history. 94 00:14:33,970 --> 00:14:39,170 So, either current smokers or ever smokers, it adds to their risk factor as well. 95 00:14:39,710 --> 00:14:42,290 Now, radon is found in our soil all across Canada. 96 00:14:43,230 --> 00:14:47,650 It comes from uranium, uranium eventually decays and becomes radon. 97 00:14:47,790 --> 00:14:51,250 Radon is a gas and it moves that out of our soil into the air. 98 00:14:51,750 --> 00:14:56,810 So any building that has contact with the ground can have a potential of having elevated levels of radon. 99 00:14:57,110 --> 00:14:59,970 It doesn't just stay in the basement, it can circulate throughout the air. 100 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:28,500 We can focus on testing kind of from the lowest level up because typically levels are highest in the basement. Health Canada recommends testing buildings using a three-month test. And then if any levels are above 200, that the building owner take action to reduce them. And so those are the types of tests that we used in this project. We were able to distribute just over 100 detectors. And you'll see that we were able to issue 86 reports within 85% return rate. 101 00:15:28,500 --> 00:15:31,660 So really one of our better return rates of the community, 102 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:36,120 you will see though that one person may still have their detector in place. 103 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,440 And so if they still have it, they can still mail it back to us and we'll make sure 104 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:46,100 that it gets analyzed. And there may be a handful of people that forgot to even set up their 105 00:15:46,100 --> 00:15:51,620 detector. And so again, if there are people that either have a detector, they can set them up still 106 00:15:51,620 --> 00:15:55,760 and then leave them in place for three months and return them after the program. 107 00:15:57,180 --> 00:16:02,220 or if there is somebody that started it and forgot to return it, we're still taking it back, 108 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,420 so we want you to mail it back to us and we'll make sure that we get it analyzed. 109 00:16:06,660 --> 00:16:12,500 But this report is on the 86 reports that we've been able to issue and we do find that some people, 110 00:16:13,180 --> 00:16:17,200 we send these reports out by email, some people don't get them, so we also want to let people know 111 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,260 that if they didn't get the report by email, they can reach out to us and we will make sure that we 112 00:16:21,260 --> 00:16:25,900 help get them a report, but at this point 86 people should have received their rate on 113 00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:30,680 test report and a one-pager which helps them with understanding what the results of the 114 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:31,300 report mean. 115 00:16:32,620 --> 00:16:39,440 And from the data that we have issued in these reports, 19% of these reports are above 200, 116 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,700 so that's health Canada's action guideline. 117 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:47,080 And so it breaks down like this, 36% are in the green and those are reports that are under 118 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:53,480 100 beck rolls, 45% are in the yellow and that's representing 1 to 200 beck rolls. So that's 119 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:58,040 just coming up to the health Canada guideline. And then in the red are the ones that are between 120 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:06,300 2 and 600. So we had 16% of reports were in that 2 to 600 level. And then there was a report in 121 00:17:06,300 --> 00:17:13,380 each of the next levels, purple represents 600 to 1000 and black is 1000. And so we lay out the 122 00:17:13,380 --> 00:17:18,640 information this way because exposure to radon does increase as the exposure increases. 123 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,700 And so as the levels go up, that does represent an increased health risk. 124 00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:27,780 Now some of the other data that we gathered is about housing types, so you can see that 125 00:17:27,780 --> 00:17:32,100 the majority of people in this program participated were in single detached homes. 126 00:17:32,660 --> 00:17:38,520 There were some semi-detached couple mobile homes and a couple apartment or condo-style units. 127 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:45,040 And so, you can see that all the ones that were high were single detached homes. 128 00:17:45,500 --> 00:17:50,480 But we do have resources for other groups because there has been other programs 129 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:55,660 where we've seen mobile homes with elevated levels or condos or stratas 130 00:17:55,660 --> 00:17:58,140 or apartments that also could have elevated levels. 131 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,940 And the other thing that we have had is renters. 132 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:08,060 And so you can see in the next chart that there was one renter who did test 133 00:18:08,060 --> 00:18:15,120 high and those often require some additional resources because a renter now needs to go 134 00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:19,860 and talk to their landlord. A landlord really is the one that's responsible for the mitigation 135 00:18:19,860 --> 00:18:25,880 and so we do have resources for renters. Also, if there happen to be strata, there's a co-ownership 136 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,900 that structure there as well and so we do can support those as well in talking with their ownership 137 00:18:30,900 --> 00:18:33,860 group if there is a need for reduction. 138 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:41,140 The other thing that we ask is about testing, so our goal of the program really is to support 139 00:18:41,140 --> 00:18:42,760 people through testing the first time. 140 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,660 And so you can see that the majority of people, this was the first time they tested. 141 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,180 But you can see that there was a few people that they had already tested before. 142 00:18:50,780 --> 00:18:52,020 And this is not unusual. 143 00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:57,600 Sometimes people do need to test a couple times before they take action to reduce it. 144 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,580 But we do want to tell people that the tests that we use in this program are accurate. 145 00:19:01,580 --> 00:19:06,680 we do quality assurance on it so they can have confidence in the results of the report and move 146 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:12,980 to take action on it. We also asked about raid on systems that were installed in the home and 147 00:19:12,980 --> 00:19:19,020 so you can see that the majority didn't have any system installed or they didn't know. But there 148 00:19:19,020 --> 00:19:23,820 was a couple with that passive stack. So that is the current building code in BC and in the 149 00:19:23,820 --> 00:19:30,240 question area that extended rough in that does extend out and so if those levels were 150 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:36,380 high then they would just need to make sure that the fan is properly sized and added 151 00:19:36,380 --> 00:19:41,620 on to that passive system but you can see that those ones were below the 200 level. 152 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,960 And then the other thing that we ask is age of construction and so often we get questions 153 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,620 from people about you know is it in old homes or new homes and you can see here in this 154 00:19:51,620 --> 00:19:58,700 graph. The top level top bar is we don't know the age of construction or they didn't know so 155 00:19:58,700 --> 00:20:03,720 they didn't provide it to us but then each bar here represents a decade and we've just simplified 156 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:10,020 the result so green represents levels below 200 red represents levels above 200 and then the numbers 157 00:20:10,020 --> 00:20:17,480 at the bottom represent the number of units in that area and so are the number of data per bar 158 00:20:18,060 --> 00:20:21,340 And so you can see that it does go across age of construction. 159 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:28,280 So although we don't have any in the 2020 or more recent, 160 00:20:28,620 --> 00:20:32,220 you can see that the numbers of data points are quite low in that age group. 161 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,300 But what we have found from doing this project across the country 162 00:20:35,300 --> 00:20:38,120 is that it is in older homes, it is in newer homes. 163 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:44,200 Everybody really does need to test to know what that they need to either add a fan 164 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:50,780 if they've got that passive system or add a full system and you can see in this graph just that 165 00:20:50,780 --> 00:20:54,980 we've worked with other communities across BC and so you happen to be kind of right in the middle 166 00:20:54,980 --> 00:21:01,140 although the BC average is about 8% we do find at a community level that we've certainly have 167 00:21:01,140 --> 00:21:07,780 a number of communities that are higher than that provincial average. So this data is all for you to 168 00:21:07,780 --> 00:21:13,080 help answer some of the questions that we find Marin councils might have or that your citizens may 169 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:18,940 have to help you with supporting some answers to them. We are here to continue to provide support 170 00:21:18,940 --> 00:21:24,660 to you or to the participants or your citizens about rate on awareness, but this is our public 171 00:21:24,660 --> 00:21:29,920 report now. So this will be shared out on our website. It's a one-page report with the results of 172 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,440 the survey on the one side and then with general information about rate on on the other side 173 00:21:34,980 --> 00:21:39,100 so that it answers some of these basic questions that people have about the health risk of rate on 174 00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:42,000 and how to mitigate it and how to find a certified professional. 175 00:21:43,100 --> 00:21:46,960 And then the additional slides that I've provided also provide some additional information. 176 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:52,320 This is program is funded by Health Canada and so we have funding to do it one year but 177 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:57,740 we can include repeat programs for communities if we're able to find partner funding. 178 00:21:59,120 --> 00:22:04,220 There also is information about our certification program so anybody that needs to reduce their 179 00:22:04,220 --> 00:22:08,700 rate on level can hire a certified professional and there is a list that you can direct people 180 00:22:08,700 --> 00:22:16,260 to online. There is also a mitigation grant. So for those that don't have finances and 181 00:22:16,260 --> 00:22:20,080 are concerned about the cost of mitigation, they can apply to the Canadian Lung Association 182 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:25,520 for the Lung's Matter Grant. They need a long-term test report, a quote from a CNRPP professional 183 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:31,240 and then they need a qualify and they can qualify one of two ways either because of their income 184 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:37,220 so they can provide proof of income and they are under the median income or also they would qualify 185 00:22:37,220 --> 00:22:42,080 if they had a lung cancer diagnosis. So those are two ways that they could qualify. 186 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:48,360 Another thing I wanted to point out is that BC does have a pilot program. It's a screening program 187 00:22:48,360 --> 00:22:52,460 for those that are have been exposed to high levels. And so we do find that we get questions from 188 00:22:52,460 --> 00:22:56,780 people saying, you know, I've lived in my house for 20 years and I'm just finding out now about 189 00:22:56,780 --> 00:23:04,600 rate on and so they can go to the BC cancer site if their levels are 800 or if they're even approaching 190 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:09,840 they can ask to be included in this and this is a lung house check just to see what their 191 00:23:10,500 --> 00:23:16,740 lung exposure might be at this point. And then the last slides are the rate on action guides 192 00:23:16,740 --> 00:23:22,140 that health Canada have developed for municipalities and so I've just put some quick summaries of what 193 00:23:22,140 --> 00:23:27,040 there included but there are really great guides for communities to read and see suggestions 194 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:32,400 on how you can continue to support your citizens with rate on awareness. There are some really 195 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,500 easy things like putting information on your website or more in-depth things like testing 196 00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:40,920 all your municipal buildings and not sort of thing. Thank you very much for the time and I'm 197 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,340 happy to answer any questions. 198 00:23:44,660 --> 00:23:52,020 Thank you. 199 00:23:52,020 --> 00:24:04,100 But two quick questions. One is we use circulate this information to the local media. So it's if you want to get people to participate, seeing the results of this will be important step one. 200 00:24:05,020 --> 00:24:19,620 And then the second part of the question is, are there other communities so far that have taken you up on your request to run the program again because we haven't really put so bad context for that today, but just wondering are there communities doing that? 201 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:26,560 Yeah. Thank you for the question. And so we will circulate it. We do have a draft press release 202 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:32,600 that we shared with Asha and that we will share so that we can help the community with communications 203 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:39,300 as well as circulate it to the local media. We bill, like I said, it's accessible on our website 204 00:24:39,900 --> 00:24:45,580 as of now so that people can access that as well. And then yeah, we do have repeat communities. We've 205 00:24:45,580 --> 00:24:49,380 worked with, actually, at the regional level, we've worked with the regional district of 206 00:24:49,380 --> 00:24:55,580 Central Okanagan and the regional district of Okanagan, the Somalkin, to support them 207 00:24:55,580 --> 00:25:01,240 a couple of years with their communities. We've also worked with Kimberly at multiple 208 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:08,260 years and all of her, although it's in the RDOS a couple of times, and in BC, and then in 209 00:25:08,260 --> 00:25:13,380 other provinces, we've worked with other communities as well. We find that, like, you've kind 210 00:25:13,380 --> 00:25:18,180 of inferred that once people start to see the results and they see that other people have tested, 211 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:24,860 now they're more interested in testing as well. Sometimes some of us need sort of some other 212 00:25:24,860 --> 00:25:30,800 people to go ahead and do it first and then we do see a pick-up of testing after that. 213 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:40,760 I was just wondering if a community did not run a program a second time, if we can just actually get 214 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,500 Yeah, we don't actually sell test kits, but there are kits available. 215 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,160 And so, yeah, certainly people can purchase them online. 216 00:25:53,380 --> 00:25:57,760 And we do have information about that on the second page on that community report. 217 00:25:58,140 --> 00:26:00,540 And so they can go on to our take action on RAID on website. 218 00:26:00,540 --> 00:26:06,600 And we have a list of different companies that sell kits there that people can purchase 219 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:06,920 from. 220 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:14,440 In addition, the libraries also have digital monitors that are available, so people can borrow them if they want to do that. 221 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,740 First, it's sort of a screening because it's a shorter term. 222 00:26:18,540 --> 00:26:24,780 And they're off the shelves for the summer, but then they kind of go back on now as we start to get into the winter. 223 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,180 So they will become available again. 224 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:32,720 And then on the CNRPP website, there is information about digital monitors as well. 225 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:39,440 So we use the one used tip kits in this program, but there are electronic ones that you can connect to your smartphone and that sort of thing. 226 00:26:39,900 --> 00:26:43,100 And so there's a list of those on the CNRPP website as well. 227 00:26:44,340 --> 00:26:45,220 Thank you. 228 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:50,320 Yeah, thank you. I was just curious about if you have a mapping. 229 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:56,360 If, like, does it work, like, let's say, the 10 were in one neighborhood. 230 00:26:56,700 --> 00:27:01,820 Do you have that mapped and would you recommend, like, approaching those people around that neighborhood? 231 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,860 Is that, like, does, I don't, like, you have to teach me, is that how it works? 232 00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:10,540 One area will be, have more radon and what maybe other areas in Creston wouldn't have less. 233 00:27:10,820 --> 00:27:14,060 So, is, do you map that and are we able to have that data? 234 00:27:14,660 --> 00:27:16,400 So that is a common question that we get. 235 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,860 So yeah, thanks for asking that because we do map it. 236 00:27:18,860 --> 00:27:23,480 We're very cautious with it and so we walk through a little bit with that when we 237 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,660 Reviewed the data and putting this present to get presentation together and 238 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:36,480 What we find in your community is the same as what we find in most of the all the other communities that we've done in the 239 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:43,260 The country that they are distributed throughout the area. So there's no one neighborhood or they're not all in one area 240 00:27:43,260 --> 00:27:46,760 So you can have we sort of put the the colored 241 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:52,180 Marks has differentiate between the different levels and you can have like one 242 00:27:52,180 --> 00:27:57,100 you know greenhouse next to a red house next to a yellow so even on one 243 00:27:57,100 --> 00:28:02,060 street it can be you know one is low one is high and that's quite common even 244 00:28:02,060 --> 00:28:06,680 with the same developer even within the same proximity of age of construction and 245 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,240 all those sorts of things it can range so yeah it's important for everybody to 246 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:15,540 test but we do check it just in case there's something and you know unique like 247 00:28:15,540 --> 00:28:23,660 you said. And then what we do, so we protect our mapping data because it's, you know, we protect privacy, 248 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:29,900 but we look at it from that level. But we do share it with the BCCDC and they then map it at a 249 00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:37,300 summary level. So they roll up the details into, and they protect individual privacy. And so you can 250 00:28:37,300 --> 00:28:42,060 and go on the BCCD-C radon map and find the data there as well. 251 00:28:43,340 --> 00:28:44,860 That's interesting. Thank you for that. 252 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,860 So this morning when I turned my phone on, 253 00:28:49,060 --> 00:28:50,600 there was an pop-up reminder, 254 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,140 return your radon detector. 255 00:28:52,620 --> 00:28:53,180 Well, we hear them, 256 00:28:53,260 --> 00:28:55,240 and I'm not the one, 257 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:55,560 they said, 258 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,460 actually, for a radon detector, 259 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,240 and she said, no, they're all out, right? 260 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,120 I purchased mine independently. 261 00:29:01,900 --> 00:29:04,860 I really appreciate all this information. 262 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,000 And as soon as I find the envelope 263 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:12,080 is going in, but I think I know where the envelope is. But I do have a question. And is there any 264 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:18,720 observable conclusive link between the cumulative effects of wildfire, smoke and radar? 265 00:29:20,420 --> 00:29:25,040 Yeah, that is a good question. And it is a serious thing that we're looking at right now. So there 266 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:30,660 is a number of researchers that are taking a look at it from a few different angles. So as your question 267 00:29:30,660 --> 00:29:38,220 about exposure. The data is still early, so there really isn't any confirmed research at that 268 00:29:38,220 --> 00:29:46,560 point. But we do know that there is research with the smoking combination that the damage that 269 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:57,560 smoking can do to lungs makes lungs more easily damaged by the radon, so they're more at risk. 270 00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,480 there are so 271 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:22,780 Other issues, you know, other illnesses that impact our lungs can also make people more vulnerable. That's the word I was looking for, um, to, uh, to risk of lung cancer. When then, that's combined with exposure to radon. So there's a number of, um, research papers that I have are ongoing, um, but yeah, it's, um, it's not been published yet. 272 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:29,440 We appreciate you doing the research, so I think it's something that is probably important 273 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:29,840 that they do. 274 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:35,980 So, thank you for all your information and like I said, mine's going back to the lab 275 00:30:35,980 --> 00:30:37,040 as soon as I find the album. 276 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,920 Sounds good and if you need help with that, we're here to help connect you with where it 277 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:42,260 extended. 278 00:30:43,100 --> 00:30:47,420 Okay, I'm pretty sure I know where the album is, but anyway, thank you. 279 00:30:47,980 --> 00:30:48,140 Thank you. 280 00:30:48,140 --> 00:30:49,360 Yeah, thank you very much for your time. 281 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:59,680 Okay, so we have a motion up to the end, but we're going to have committee counsel receives 282 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:05,200 a delegation in the committee to answer society, pound working tens, 100 made on, let's get 283 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,220 challenge the rest of the V.C. 284 00:31:07,580 --> 00:31:10,720 I was very seconded by the Chancellor of Holland. 285 00:31:11,140 --> 00:31:11,800 I'm on the same level. 286 00:31:12,020 --> 00:31:12,840 I believe we're in two. 287 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:14,740 Maybe in a very good. 288 00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:17,080 And the fact that I was. 289 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:18,900 I know. 290 00:31:26,860 --> 00:31:27,800 The threats to the. 291 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:29,000 I. 292 00:31:29,620 --> 00:31:29,980 The. 293 00:31:30,300 --> 00:31:30,380 The. 294 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:30,840 The. 295 00:31:33,260 --> 00:31:33,660 The. 296 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:34,360 The. 297 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:36,120 The. 298 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:06,520 the ground. 299 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,760 Thank you so much. 300 00:32:15,380 --> 00:32:17,760 We're so used to farm the area up. 301 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,620 We're back in order and everyone. 302 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,020 And then we'll go next to with our council, 303 00:32:24,300 --> 00:32:27,000 council direction requests from the director of community services. 304 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,520 The only by-law amendment fence. 305 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:29,380 I'm excuse. 306 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:42,640 Thank you very much. Thank you, Marsha. Council. So this report presents two proposed amendments 307 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,880 for a current zoning by-law and seeks council direction to proceed with by-law amendments 308 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:53,220 for a person sitting reading and have kind of meeting. So the first amendment is pertains 309 00:32:53,220 --> 00:32:59,060 to fence regulations. It would allow residential properties that front existential highway to 310 00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:02,520 to construct a six-foot fence versus the four-foot fence, 311 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,080 which is currently permitted. 312 00:33:04,940 --> 00:33:07,600 The amendment responds to some concerns raised 313 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:11,140 by residents that live in those areas to traffic noise. 314 00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:13,680 I like where public safety, security, 315 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:14,740 all those types of things. 316 00:33:15,300 --> 00:33:17,480 Properties would still be required to comply 317 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:21,140 with Ministry of Transportation and Transit requirements, 318 00:33:21,420 --> 00:33:23,140 such as an agricultural and structured permit. 319 00:33:23,860 --> 00:33:25,920 And the corner visibility regulations 320 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,520 will remain in place to maintain 321 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:34,000 that safe site line at intersections. The second proposed amendment is speaking to some tenure 322 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:40,220 restrictions that we have. So we're looking at removing tenure restrictions for some residential 323 00:33:40,220 --> 00:33:45,600 units in commercial, highly-surface, commercial neighborhood, and industrial general zones. 324 00:33:46,140 --> 00:33:51,960 So currently these units can only be occupied by the principal owner, caretaker, or operator of said 325 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:57,520 business. These restrictions are a bit of a carryover from a previous bylaw and 326 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,940 we're calm and practice at that time in 1989 and we're intended really to 327 00:34:01,940 --> 00:34:05,580 ensure that the residential uses remain subordinate to those those primary 328 00:34:05,580 --> 00:34:10,600 uses. Housing availability continues to be a significant challenge in 329 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,760 question and staff have also heard from residents and business owners that 330 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,280 they're looking at you know they're requesting some greater flexibility around 331 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,220 that tenure show. So removing restrictions could support you know additional housing, 332 00:34:22,500 --> 00:34:27,660 opportunities, rental opportunities, housing choice, and they even open up some, 333 00:34:27,900 --> 00:34:32,980 currently they can't use to become available. Tenure restrictions are also very challenging 334 00:34:32,980 --> 00:34:37,800 to administer and enforce. They require constant ongoing verification whether the documents 335 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:44,000 occupants meet those by-law requirements or not. So removing these restrictions would simplify 336 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:50,060 administration and reducing ambiguity. So as these amendments are also consistent with our 337 00:34:50,060 --> 00:34:54,120 official community plan, a public hearing is not required for these amendments under the local 338 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,600 government act, although council may choose to proceed with the public hearing. 339 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:01,820 Any questions? 340 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:09,580 That's all so sorry. I didn't really understand the context of the R6 zone where it took 341 00:35:09,580 --> 00:35:16,020 we could looking at manufactured homes and that the tenure there and understanding that 342 00:35:16,020 --> 00:35:21,500 we haven't had any complaints about that particular division, not sure why it isn't 343 00:35:22,620 --> 00:35:25,240 perhaps being included in the context of this. 344 00:35:25,820 --> 00:35:26,360 Absolutely. 345 00:35:27,240 --> 00:35:33,100 I think we can look at this, you know, as those things present, right now when we took a look 346 00:35:33,100 --> 00:35:38,900 at the few mobile home parks we have it typically is that when our work share 347 00:35:38,900 --> 00:35:43,680 takeer of that park that is living in those spaces but it's definitely you know 348 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:50,020 open. It's a combination like anything else so maybe it can be run remotely and 349 00:35:50,020 --> 00:35:54,760 we can be offered as as incremental accommodation for some. Absolutely. 350 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:04,000 I'm going to read the vote, that's connected with the Senate, because the Council received 351 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:08,380 the event, it says August 11th, but we need August 24th Council direction, request 352 00:36:08,380 --> 00:36:12,860 titled, to go on amendment by law fence, type through mixed use tenures from the Director 353 00:36:12,860 --> 00:36:17,200 of Community Services for information, and further that Council direct staff to present 354 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:23,620 the proposed by law amendments to Council consideration, or first and second reading and upcoming Council 355 00:36:23,620 --> 00:36:26,600 So, I mean, some suspension by Councilman Dumont, 356 00:36:26,780 --> 00:36:28,560 she's not a little bigger at the end. 357 00:36:28,740 --> 00:36:29,120 When committee? 358 00:36:29,620 --> 00:36:30,100 Yeah, very pretty. 359 00:36:30,220 --> 00:36:30,340 Sorry. 360 00:36:30,580 --> 00:36:31,400 I'd recommend the end. 361 00:36:31,620 --> 00:36:32,900 I mean, everybody can either. 362 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:33,880 They're all not. 363 00:36:34,180 --> 00:36:34,780 He likes it. 364 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:35,360 Okay. 365 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:37,800 I got it. 366 00:36:38,180 --> 00:36:39,380 Well, let's get out of the committee. 367 00:36:39,540 --> 00:36:40,820 The whole line is out to do that. 368 00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:44,400 And the next motion is that we rise out of the committee. 369 00:36:44,540 --> 00:36:44,760 The whole. 370 00:36:45,260 --> 00:36:45,820 That's a ball. 371 00:36:47,220 --> 00:36:48,020 On face. 372 00:36:48,020 --> 00:36:54,720 options.

This biologist is a reminder, 376 00:37:12,340 --> 00:37:24,780 Under establishes the corporate officer, financial officer, and CAO for the organization pursuant to the little specified liquid and each other. So at this time, we are just looking for an adoption of the summer. 377 00:37:24,780 --> 00:37:31,340 All right, then we'll have to just have a motion that council received this report. 378 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:38,700 And then further that council, I'm going to turn on the officer down the press and officer 379 00:37:38,700 --> 00:37:43,960 by the 2005-06 be adopted, which will be by council maulin, secretary of health and 380 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:44,200 health and health. 381 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:45,260 I'm favor. 382 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:46,880 Thank you. 383 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:48,000 It's very to that. 384 00:37:48,340 --> 00:37:49,760 My law is now adopted. 385 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,640 We'll go on to community services, we request the registration of the director of community 386 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:55,260 services. 387 00:37:55,260 --> 00:37:57,880 to build communities strong and find their part 388 00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:59,360 from the expansion. 389 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,520 Yeah, so this report seeks council authorization 390 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,680 for staff to submit an expression of interest 391 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,320 and future grant application to the build community 392 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,240 strong fund direct delivery stream 393 00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:20,260 for the airport run rate center project. 394 00:38:20,780 --> 00:38:23,160 This project has been identified as a priority 395 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:24,800 and the Crescent Valley Regional, 396 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:29,000 your master plan has an estimated cost of $2.7 million. 397 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:34,600 The proposed project would extend runway 1533 from its current length, which is approximately 398 00:38:35,420 --> 00:38:40,180 3944 feet to approximately 4500 feet. 399 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:46,980 The existing runway can create some operational challenges during hot weather and person 400 00:38:46,980 --> 00:38:49,860 heavier aircraft, including air ambulance services. 401 00:38:50,220 --> 00:38:54,900 The extension would also help accommodate future ambulance fleet requirements in through 402 00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:59,020 relief for emergency medical transfer and enhance their 403 00:38:59,020 --> 00:39:02,200 disability to support emergency response as well for our 404 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,980 suppression. The runway extension would also improve regional 405 00:39:05,980 --> 00:39:09,440 connectivity supporting economic and tourism development. 406 00:39:10,180 --> 00:39:12,860 The project does align with the Bill Community Strength Fund, 407 00:39:13,240 --> 00:39:16,560 securing additional funding or external funding reduced financial 408 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:20,080 impact on local taxors as well advancing the Black Opera Master 409 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:36,200 I think it looks great and I went online and just looked at the criteria for the fund. 410 00:39:36,780 --> 00:39:47,160 I just have some questions when we talk about climate resilience and understanding how 411 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:55,920 the extension of the runway puts climate resilience as the factor. So, trying to figure that out myself, 412 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:03,240 and trying to understand, is that like are we looking at composition of the actual tarmac 413 00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:08,580 when we talk about that rather than if it's easier for plain to land? 414 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:13,860 That's right. So climate resilience is a little bit around, you know, yes, it will be easier for 415 00:40:13,860 --> 00:40:16,720 for some larger aircraft, for wildfires, 416 00:40:16,940 --> 00:40:17,780 especially in things like that. 417 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:19,780 But it's the actual tarmac piece 418 00:40:19,780 --> 00:40:22,140 in the really fog weather right now, 419 00:40:22,180 --> 00:40:24,100 as it's replaced the whole way out, 420 00:40:24,240 --> 00:40:25,920 some climate resilience to that infrastructure. 421 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:26,340 Right. 422 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,580 And so supplemental sweet work here. 423 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:32,200 Like that. 424 00:40:32,340 --> 00:40:38,280 So I went and looked back at our airport strategic plan. 425 00:40:38,860 --> 00:40:41,900 And we've got the cost breakdown sheet as well. 426 00:40:41,900 --> 00:40:54,220 But it doesn't really like is there a big difference in the price for materials that make this and more climate resistant type of tarmac surface? 427 00:40:54,880 --> 00:41:04,340 Because I don't and when I read through the document again, it doesn't really talk about that type of changes to the runway. 428 00:41:04,340 --> 00:41:07,960 it just talks about extending it and putting those 429 00:41:10,220 --> 00:41:14,620 anchors on the end, right? So it talks about adding that, but 430 00:41:15,420 --> 00:41:18,560 I think it might need to resurface the entire runway 431 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,860 if we are using that as criteria for the ground. 432 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,740 Right, I'm honestly not too sure I'd have to follow up with the director 433 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:27,720 of Community Services. 434 00:41:29,500 --> 00:41:33,860 Yeah, we had a fast B estimate for approximately that amount, 435 00:41:33,860 --> 00:41:43,420 But yeah, I can't speak to be sure the contents. Yeah, the climate resiliency is actually about 436 00:41:43,420 --> 00:41:49,260 the length of the runway. So as the temperatures go up, it actually makes planes that can take off 437 00:41:49,260 --> 00:41:54,220 and that size will run away, not if it's take off. And as the air ambulance changes their fleet, 438 00:41:54,220 --> 00:41:58,720 their action increase in size of their plane. So in cold weather, they're able to take off 439 00:41:58,720 --> 00:42:05,100 in the distance, but in temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius, it cannot rise in the long enough for it. 440 00:42:05,300 --> 00:42:08,860 Because the lift is changes as temperature rises. 441 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:14,680 So, what that climate resiliency is, is that we're getting more and more days over those 30 degrees Celsius days, 442 00:42:14,900 --> 00:42:19,060 which then puts at risk those, the ability for those sides of plants to take off. 443 00:42:19,380 --> 00:42:26,700 So, by adding that extension, it actually extends that ability to take off in the higher temperature, so it's those days. 444 00:42:26,700 --> 00:42:26,920 Thank you. 445 00:42:28,420 --> 00:42:29,320 Thank you. 446 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:33,380 Yes. 447 00:42:34,020 --> 00:42:39,020 So then I would like the motion that the August 25th, 2026. 448 00:42:39,260 --> 00:42:40,120 It's right for the same. 449 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:46,940 I will build community strong fund airport runway extension when the director of community services to receive for information. 450 00:42:47,500 --> 00:42:52,820 And then council authorize the staff to prepare and submit flat applications to the build communities. 451 00:42:52,820 --> 00:42:54,220 We've just drawn final grant delivery, 452 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:58,060 that's made it at $2 million, $1,160,950. 453 00:42:58,220 --> 00:43:00,960 It offers that council authorizes staff 454 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:02,940 on receipt of the grant to administer 455 00:43:02,940 --> 00:43:04,540 the funding to complete the airport, 456 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,920 airport runway extension project, if it's successful. 457 00:43:09,140 --> 00:43:11,100 Councilor Halt, seconded councilor, 458 00:43:11,340 --> 00:43:12,400 is there a discussion? 459 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,180 All in favor, motion is carried. 460 00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:17,960 Thank you, Mr. Crossman. 461 00:43:18,420 --> 00:43:20,600 What a benefit that would be your community, 462 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,440 and we actually need rest, but it's competitive 463 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:24,560 and it's a lot of money, 464 00:43:24,740 --> 00:43:27,300 but we'll share the one that flows inside it. 465 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,920 Okay, so you're still here for the 466 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:32,840 by-way and both the by-law adoption. 467 00:43:33,580 --> 00:43:33,720 Right. 468 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,160 So this report presents the encroachment by-law 469 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:40,100 and associated by-laws to modernize 470 00:43:40,100 --> 00:43:42,460 the task approach to managing our encroachments. 471 00:43:42,900 --> 00:43:45,580 The proposed amendments have outdated definitions, 472 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,300 clarify the distinction between major and minor encroachments, 473 00:43:49,300 --> 00:43:55,280 provide some legislative references, staff titles, and remove the actual agreement on the 474 00:43:55,280 --> 00:44:01,140 viola to provide some more administrative flexibility. The viola also establishes a more 475 00:44:01,140 --> 00:44:06,420 comprehensive risk management framework in the form of major encroachments as major encroachments 476 00:44:06,420 --> 00:44:11,420 will be required to have a covenant registered on title to clearly identify the encroachment. 477 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:16,220 Overall, the proposed changes are intended to improve administrative efficiency, 478 00:44:16,220 --> 00:44:20,840 provide greater clarity for applicants and staff, strengthen our risk management practices, 479 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:26,980 and ensure our encroachment regulations remain current and effective. So, the recommendation 480 00:44:26,980 --> 00:44:30,440 of our council today is to adopt the three by-laws. 481 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:38,500 One has our hand up, so this is four parts. First, that we receive this information. 482 00:44:38,500 --> 00:44:52,320 Second, that how we encode from bylaw number 2060, 2026 be adopted, and then bylaw, notice enforcement amendment bylaw number 2061 2026 be adopted. 483 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,780 You're going to be able to do these all as individual moments please, thank you. 484 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:29,700 It's an individual. We'll start with the first one then. First motion is that we receive this for information. Motion by council organizers, second, the council are following. All in favor, motion carry. Next, the highly encoded by line number 2060, 2026, be adopted, council ballroom, second, the council, do must all in favor. Motion carry. Next, that by law, notice enforcement amendment. I'll add 206126 be adopted. 485 00:45:29,700 --> 00:45:33,040 did. We're in buttons I get a 486 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,120 council've fallen in favor. Motion 487 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,020 carried and then last that feeds and 488 00:45:39,020 --> 00:45:40,420 charges are meant by the number 489 00:45:40,420 --> 00:45:44,720 2063 2026 feet adopted. Council 490 00:45:44,720 --> 00:45:46,000 were doing this I can't counsel 491 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,180 Eisner favorite motion is carried. 492 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,880 So now low productive services 493 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,620 information report from the 494 00:45:54,620 --> 00:45:55,880 emergency management coordinator 495 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,560 regarding hazard risk and 496 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:58,700 We're all equal to the assessment. 497 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,480 That's sure when you put together. 498 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:21,240 Sure when you put together. 499 00:46:21,620 --> 00:46:22,480 Quick reading. 500 00:46:26,900 --> 00:46:28,840 I'll just stack it in multiple of the lives. 501 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,060 I'll regret the last confusion. 502 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:36,540 Yes, so we. 503 00:46:41,140 --> 00:46:43,340 We received that in July. 504 00:46:43,340 --> 00:46:46,900 I'm happy to say very excited about having our HIV A. 505 00:46:48,310 --> 00:46:52,050 And so an HIV A has a risk in vulnerability assessment. 506 00:46:52,250 --> 00:46:53,690 I live in the world of acronyms. 507 00:46:55,250 --> 00:46:58,750 So there are HIV A concerns that hazard impacts in question. 508 00:46:59,370 --> 00:47:01,390 It considers vulnerabilities and it considers 509 00:47:01,390 --> 00:47:03,430 consequences associated with hazards. 510 00:47:04,870 --> 00:47:06,430 So it meets legislative requirements. 511 00:47:07,010 --> 00:47:09,990 And considering that hazard is considering a risk, 512 00:47:10,130 --> 00:47:11,850 the hazard risks, and it has a consequences. 513 00:47:13,090 --> 00:47:17,370 Overall, this HIVA provides the foundation for emergency planning and the preparedness 514 00:47:17,370 --> 00:47:18,910 for increased resiliency questions. 515 00:47:20,270 --> 00:47:26,030 And when I say questions, specific hazards, I'm talking about hazards that impact the time 516 00:47:26,030 --> 00:47:32,230 person directly, but also hazards that occur around the person and have an impact on them. 517 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:37,100 So a 518 00:47:40,720 --> 00:47:48,220 hazard is a circumstances condition or process of phenomenon that can be human or natural 519 00:47:48,220 --> 00:47:54,460 costs that give the rights to an emergency. The vulnerability is the characteristic or circumstance 520 00:47:54,990 --> 00:47:58,920 in the community that makes it more susceptible to the impact of the hazards. 521 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:04,540 The risk of the culmination of the likelihood of the hazard occurring and the severity of the 522 00:48:04,540 --> 00:48:13,060 consequences. So for example, air pollution is a hazard. Air pollution is a hazard and the vulnerability 523 00:48:13,060 --> 00:48:18,500 ability could be age, for example, very young or elderly could be more susceptible to the 524 00:48:18,500 --> 00:48:19,940 impacts of hazards, so that's vulnerable. 525 00:48:20,980 --> 00:48:28,800 And then risk for air pollution, for example, is low, because the likelihood while high 526 00:48:29,240 --> 00:48:30,260 has lower consequences. 527 00:48:35,890 --> 00:48:42,390 So our consultants used a little toolkit as the foundation for developing this age-arbeating, 528 00:48:42,390 --> 00:48:47,750 which encourages scientific knowledge and local knowledge. 529 00:48:48,620 --> 00:48:51,150 These observational and existing data 530 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,070 that considered past event, current research, 531 00:48:55,390 --> 00:48:59,110 as well as future projections, specifically climate projections. 532 00:49:00,010 --> 00:49:02,350 And then there was thorough engagement as well 533 00:49:02,350 --> 00:49:05,430 with partners, both in-person and online, 534 00:49:05,530 --> 00:49:07,590 which I'll speak to a little bit here. 535 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,680 So the province identifies 57 hazards 536 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:18,540 that are applicable in BC, six of those hazards do not 537 00:49:18,540 --> 00:49:19,800 are all relevant to Preston. 538 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,520 27 of those hazards are what we consider tier one hazards. 539 00:49:23,860 --> 00:49:25,440 And so those are the highest variety hazards 540 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,000 or hazards of greatest concern. 541 00:49:27,900 --> 00:49:30,580 Whereas 24 of them were considered peer to hazards, 542 00:49:30,580 --> 00:49:32,380 which are the lower relative risk hazards. 543 00:49:36,670 --> 00:49:40,030 And so all hazards were ranked on a likelihood scale 544 00:49:40,030 --> 00:49:42,090 from rare to almost certain. 545 00:49:42,710 --> 00:49:45,390 With rare being less than a 1% chance 546 00:49:45,390 --> 00:49:50,550 that hazard occurring in any given year and almost certain hazard greater than 50% chance 547 00:49:50,550 --> 00:49:58,150 occurring in any given year. So another way to say it is 1 in 100 year event or rare event. 548 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:17,420 And so we looked at both non-climate and climate-related hazards. We considered population changes, 549 00:50:17,980 --> 00:50:22,460 New York County industry, land use development infrastructure for non-climate hazards, 550 00:50:22,720 --> 00:50:26,200 and then the climate-related hazards really looked at those projected future trends. 551 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:33,420 We also looked at current and future likelihoods with the current being hazards in the near 552 00:50:33,420 --> 00:50:36,180 immediate current and then future objections up to 2050. 553 00:50:41,630 --> 00:50:46,530 So the bulk of the feedback we received, how to do with the consequences of systems, we 554 00:50:46,530 --> 00:50:48,570 looked at consequences of systems for all the hazards. 555 00:50:49,810 --> 00:50:54,090 And this is where we did our partner engagement workshop over the world cafe style engagement 556 00:50:54,090 --> 00:50:57,490 where we invited community partners, province, first nations. 557 00:50:58,410 --> 00:51:03,950 We had a specific workshop with yakening key, lower pretty best staff who sat down with us. 558 00:51:04,790 --> 00:51:10,470 And then anyone who wasn't able to attend the in-person workshops were invited for one-on-one interviews. 559 00:51:11,170 --> 00:51:14,730 We also did a public survey with the community and we had really good feedback there. 560 00:51:15,870 --> 00:51:21,370 There was desktop research and then also subject matter expert input into the document as well. 561 00:51:21,370 --> 00:51:22,870 So, 562 00:51:25,570 --> 00:51:28,130 for each hazard, we looked at 11 consequence categories. 563 00:51:28,910 --> 00:51:40,030 All the categories range from none to extreme fatalities, for example, none meaning that 564 00:51:40,030 --> 00:51:47,110 there are no fatalities to extreme meaning many fatalities and for exceeding our local 565 00:51:47,110 --> 00:51:51,050 resources, going into eventual federal or even international resources. 566 00:51:51,050 --> 00:52:01,730 Another example is psychosocial impacts, with none being unlikely to result in other short or long-term trauma, or extreme being widespread in terms of psychosocial. 567 00:52:05,100 --> 00:52:07,860 And again, there are 11 categories for each hazard. 568 00:52:10,660 --> 00:52:21,140 That brings us to our risks scoring, so that's, so for each hazard both current and likelihood assessments were done as well as the consequence assessments. 569 00:52:21,140 --> 00:52:24,960 And then that brings us to our risk metrics, which is my favorite part of the document. 570 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:30,600 And so on the left, you can see the current likelihood. 571 00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:34,980 So how likely was the hazard to occur and the consequences on the bottom? 572 00:52:35,460 --> 00:52:40,340 How severe are the consequences in the top right hand corner where we have it in red? 573 00:52:40,500 --> 00:52:43,580 That's our higher consequences more likely to happen. 574 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:48,500 And the green in the left bottom corner, lower consequence, lower likelihood. 575 00:52:48,500 --> 00:52:48,620 here. 576 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:56,740 Currently, we have Wildbear, their only hazard, only high hazard, 577 00:52:57,240 --> 00:53:02,180 high risk hazard, whereas we look at future projections. Some of those 578 00:53:02,180 --> 00:53:06,500 hazards do bump up. Extremely drought, wastewater, 579 00:53:07,300 --> 00:53:12,660 grail, this all do bump up into that red category. I'll just pause here for any 580 00:53:12,660 --> 00:53:16,560 questions. I got stuck on sage. 581 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,440 When I went through this first time and I looked it up, and it's a recurring way, right? 582 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,560 So I'm trying to figure out how does that connect to space with it? 583 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:25,860 Or does it connect to space? 584 00:53:25,860 --> 00:53:26,000 No. 585 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:26,820 It doesn't. 586 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:28,280 That's not it. 587 00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:28,720 Let's take it out. 588 00:53:29,300 --> 00:53:30,320 They're not related. 589 00:53:30,740 --> 00:53:30,920 Basically. 590 00:53:31,460 --> 00:53:32,520 That's what it is. 591 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:33,400 No, it's not related. 592 00:53:33,940 --> 00:53:34,520 It's not related. 593 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,600 Also, those are quite abstract from our perspective here. 594 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:42,460 The reason that they're in the yellow is because if it did happen, it could have more severe. 595 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:44,800 I'm sorry. 596 00:53:46,500 --> 00:53:50,980 I realized it seemed like these are whatever it is, I should have noticed it by 597 00:53:50,980 --> 00:53:56,240 never mind. Right. Okay. I think it should actually be a little bit lower there because that's really 598 00:53:56,240 --> 00:54:01,080 that would be pretty late. A big wave and pretty late. Spishing back and forth. So that one actually 599 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,920 I think should be lower and then bump to the right. So I think that one. But space weather in particular 600 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,880 that was also something that struck me as we haven't heard how that one could happen. 601 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:14,780 I guess 602 00:54:14,780 --> 00:54:17,400 We just stopped, I wasn't talking about it much. 603 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,340 I think the consequences are just high, right? 604 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:24,200 If it's like, it could cost power outages at the end like that, 605 00:54:24,340 --> 00:54:26,460 but yeah, but not very likely to happen. 606 00:54:27,240 --> 00:54:28,840 But it wasn't, I like the category. 607 00:54:28,860 --> 00:54:31,240 So maybe things have changed. 608 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,520 Sorry, more likely to happen lower consequences for that one. 609 00:54:34,900 --> 00:54:37,120 Yeah, the siege though, I think like that one, 610 00:54:37,260 --> 00:54:38,640 that one's a bit of an error. 611 00:54:38,780 --> 00:54:40,160 That one should go down and move to the right. 612 00:54:40,660 --> 00:54:41,780 They can have higher consequences, 613 00:54:41,780 --> 00:54:42,980 but very, very down. 614 00:54:42,980 --> 00:54:43,540 I think it happened. 615 00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:46,500 So I hope that. 616 00:54:46,780 --> 00:54:47,240 Yep. 617 00:54:47,780 --> 00:54:48,940 I got totally stuck on that one. 618 00:54:49,420 --> 00:54:51,100 That's a very good question. 619 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:53,920 It had recorded this. 620 00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,520 And then we looked at vulnerabilities for question. 621 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:01,940 So, you know, it's one thing to understand our hazards, 622 00:55:02,100 --> 00:55:03,600 but how do they actually impact us? 623 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,100 So we looked at three categories of vulnerabilities. 624 00:55:07,620 --> 00:55:09,560 So we have clinical infrastructure and services, 625 00:55:10,340 --> 00:55:10,980 social and economic, 626 00:55:10,980 --> 00:55:13,000 and physical and environmental vulnerabilities. 627 00:55:16,180 --> 00:55:19,420 So for a critical and infrastructure vulnerabilities, 628 00:55:20,620 --> 00:55:22,260 there were some highlights. 629 00:55:22,460 --> 00:55:24,540 For example, dependence on power supply 630 00:55:24,540 --> 00:55:27,940 with limited backup, reliance on fewer transportation 631 00:55:27,940 --> 00:55:31,180 robots with natural supplies, aging or capacity 632 00:55:31,180 --> 00:55:34,260 constrained assets, exposure of infrastructure 633 00:55:34,260 --> 00:55:35,280 to environmental hazards. 634 00:55:35,940 --> 00:55:37,440 So those are some of the examples 635 00:55:37,940 --> 00:55:41,900 in our critical infrastructure vulnerability category. 636 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:45,820 And then we go and look at our social and economic 637 00:55:45,820 --> 00:55:47,540 salt and revealer, you know, there's quite different. 638 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:51,460 And the way this has looked at is where something called 639 00:55:51,460 --> 00:55:53,540 the Canadian Index of Social Vulnerability, 640 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:59,380 which is a stats Canada, is created by stats Canada, 641 00:55:59,700 --> 00:56:02,600 and it provides a social vulnerability score for Preston, 642 00:56:02,720 --> 00:56:04,360 based on four dimension categories. 643 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,920 And you can see the map, there is a wall blue 644 00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:09,920 with very dark blue in the middle, 645 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,920 which tells us that there are no areas in Preston 646 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:14,840 where we have a low vulnerability score. 647 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:20,020 And that specifically is because mostly because of dimension two, 648 00:56:21,460 --> 00:56:25,540 that applies to about 80% of our catapultzing or our air isn't 649 00:56:25,540 --> 00:56:25,860 question. 650 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,740 And age is really, I think, the driving factor behind that one. 651 00:56:31,140 --> 00:56:33,580 So again, it's completely spread out over question, 652 00:56:34,020 --> 00:56:35,940 but a little bit more concentrated in the center, 653 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:37,480 most likely due to population. 654 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,980 But yeah, so that's good to know for us, 655 00:56:40,980 --> 00:56:51,340 especially for planning, as I said mentioned too, is 8% in question, so that really does influence 656 00:56:51,340 --> 00:56:53,300 our planning and preparedness moving forward. 657 00:56:56,100 --> 00:56:59,080 As well, there are some environmental vulnerabilities, 658 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:05,100 such as our dependence on wetlands in our parent areas, for water storage, water quality, and drought. 659 00:57:05,940 --> 00:57:11,500 We have land and water management activities that are outside of the town that could influence our 660 00:57:11,500 --> 00:57:15,960 runoff and erosion, and there are some steep terrain that could cause degree flows, 661 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:19,460 land fires, you know, those things could impact their roadways and things like that. 662 00:57:24,570 --> 00:57:29,030 And that brings us to the meat and potatoes of the document, which is our all-hazard summary. 663 00:57:30,350 --> 00:57:36,990 And so this is where each hazard is looked at and given it sort of more detailed analysis, 664 00:57:37,690 --> 00:57:41,890 with the higher priority hazards listed first. So wild fires on the top and then it goes down from 665 00:57:41,890 --> 00:57:48,150 there. Two or one hazards have a more detailed analysis, but each hazard has a background, 666 00:57:48,530 --> 00:57:54,050 likelihood rationale, key consequences, and compounding relationships, so how do the hazards 667 00:57:54,050 --> 00:57:55,210 interact with one another? 668 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,100 I really wanted to highlight some of the existing risk reduction 669 00:58:03,100 --> 00:58:08,200 measures we already have in person, because there are quite a few. We have a great emergency 670 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:13,920 management organization with a number of services in person, our emergency management team, 671 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:19,360 serve fire ambulance police we have a number of those services really well set up and defined in 672 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:25,960 question. There are also a number of hands-on reports that already exist and do get implemented here 673 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:31,700 in question as well as other members such as public education, staff training, building 674 00:58:31,700 --> 00:58:33,420 close-to-force and electronic violence etc. 675 00:58:38,190 --> 00:58:40,670 And that brings us to our resilience recommendations. 676 00:58:41,070 --> 00:58:43,850 So what can we do moving forward to become more resilient in question? 677 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:48,140 And so their recommendations 678 00:58:48,140 --> 00:58:56,700 are broken out a little bit. There are overarching hazard recommendations, and then there are also hazard specific recommendations based on priority hazard. 679 00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:04,380 For overarching hazard recommendations, thankfully all of the top five recommendations are already on our work plans. 680 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:07,880 So we already have business continuity in our plans for next year. 681 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:14,400 We do have a disaster response plan. We're looking at those amendments this year next year. 682 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,840 We are having RFP out currently for climate adaptation plan. 683 00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:23,260 We are looking at doing our vaccination planning broke planning next year as well. 684 00:59:23,980 --> 00:59:26,000 And we're currently working on our public information plan. 685 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,980 So good news that we're already progressing in all of these areas. 686 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,400 And then we come to the five priority hazard recommendations. 687 00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:38,900 And again, some of the work. 688 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,700 We're already doing some of the work and some of it is already in our work plans. 689 00:59:42,700 --> 00:59:47,860 So, for example, reducing wildfire exposure at public works, as well as other critical 690 00:59:47,860 --> 00:59:48,340 infrastructure. 691 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:52,120 Our first market coordinator has already been working on some of these critical infrastructure 692 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,260 assessments and looking at ways to mitigate those. 693 00:59:54,980 --> 00:59:58,820 We do have an extreme heat response plan that we can look at incorporating potentially. 694 00:59:58,820 --> 00:59:58,960 Thank you. 695 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:06,380 recommendations. We are looking at some hazard specific planning in the next couple of years. You know, we may consider 696 01:00:06,380 --> 01:00:16,540 vulking out the throughout response and pandemic response specifically. And then it also recommends some waste order upgrading, including install back-of-power, 697 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:21,660 call the street lift station upgrading our state of systems. There are a number of other recommendations, but these are some of the top ones. 698 01:00:26,130 --> 01:00:33,150 And Matthew, there are a number of maps on support planning. And it's also just really interesting. I think to look at my 699 01:00:33,150 --> 01:00:34,450 I really like this wall bar map. 700 01:00:35,010 --> 01:00:40,210 You can see Creston really doesn't have a lot of risk identified on this map, 701 01:00:40,370 --> 01:00:42,550 but all of the surrounding areas are quite high. 702 01:00:43,010 --> 01:00:47,950 So again, that speaks to the hazards that impact us in the valley. 703 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:52,780 Any other questions about that? 704 01:00:55,140 --> 01:00:56,500 Well, I have some questions. 705 01:00:58,140 --> 01:01:01,080 You have this, the whole list of recommendations here. 706 01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:05,020 And people always ask questions, are we prepared? 707 01:01:05,540 --> 01:01:07,740 the fact that it says here a lot that's the 708 01:01:07,740 --> 01:01:11,880 in progress or the part of it again. I don't want that to be confused with the 709 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,220 fact that we haven't done anything. So I know that there's a lot of work here 710 01:01:15,220 --> 01:01:20,140 and that there are some plans in place that require more detail. But I just want 711 01:01:20,140 --> 01:01:25,080 people to understand that the fact that it says here that to begin it doesn't mean 712 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:27,820 that to this point we haven't been planning. So I just want some of those 713 01:01:27,820 --> 01:01:35,000 clarification. Absolutely. Is there anything specifically you want to 714 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:40,700 When you see, you have a business continuity plan, disaster response plan, all these different plans, 715 01:01:42,700 --> 01:01:48,940 that doesn't mean like we have plans in place, but there are, there are things that we can do to 716 01:01:48,940 --> 01:01:53,580 update those individual plans. And that's just what I wanted to be clear on is the fact that how 717 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:58,940 we do it's written here. It almost looks like what we haven't even started that. That's not clear. 718 01:01:58,940 --> 01:02:04,960 Yeah, so business continuity and I'll speak to that one specifically. So that fun. We do have 719 01:02:05,900 --> 01:02:11,480 preparedness for business continuity. Absolutely. It's really going to help us specifically with the IT 720 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:17,100 started things. It's really going to help us just respond more quickly or have a better idea of 721 01:02:17,100 --> 01:02:22,060 exactly where to start. But it's not to say that, you know, we're going to be completely lost to 722 01:02:22,060 --> 01:02:26,920 something that's absolutely not. We do have fun in place. Do you know what we're doing? We don't 723 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:34,220 we know we're doing, but this will help us. Yeah, it's, it's, yeah, it's really a very specific 724 01:02:34,220 --> 01:02:40,200 and tailored guide for Preston. And then again, like the disaster response plan, for example, 725 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:44,420 we do already have a disaster response plan with the new legislative requirements. 726 01:02:44,540 --> 01:02:47,880 This is how it's new to plan with the new legislative requirements. We have to have these things 727 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:53,700 and our specific asks for these things that we need to, that we need to meet, right? Yeah. 728 01:02:53,700 --> 01:03:04,740 And those that legislation came out two years ago, and the regulations came out only just recently, and they begin in 2027, which is why I never heard those things are on our planet for the next year. 729 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:06,140 That helpful. 730 01:03:06,380 --> 01:03:17,560 Yeah, because I'm looking at this from the point of view of somebody who just goes online, looks at the agenda without your information, and they see that, oh my goodness, they have to begin all this stuff. 731 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:27,480 I guess that's what I wanted this direct is to let people that are unaware of what we've done in the background how far we are on this to just not missing for information. 732 01:03:27,900 --> 01:03:37,040 It's why I wanted to highlight a number of the things already in place too because we do already have a number of really good solid on the place and we do use them regularly. 733 01:03:38,060 --> 01:03:42,020 But I mean, the point of this too, like, there are gaps, right? 734 01:03:42,260 --> 01:03:45,200 And then I would be honest with the fact that there are gaps. 735 01:03:45,300 --> 01:03:45,380 Yeah. 736 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:48,760 And there is work to be done, but that's exactly what this is for. 737 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:53,000 It's trying to identify those gaps so that we can become more resilient moving forward. 738 01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:53,260 Right. 739 01:03:53,580 --> 01:03:55,820 And every community is going to have gaps. 740 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:56,600 Right. 741 01:03:56,680 --> 01:04:00,480 But it's really important to identify them and then make a solid plan to work on them. 742 01:04:00,980 --> 01:04:04,320 Well, there be community that is having an extreme emergency situation, 743 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:06,260 which several of them have had this year. 744 01:04:06,260 --> 01:04:08,960 I think we can learn from that as well. 745 01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:09,560 Absolutely. 746 01:04:10,740 --> 01:04:12,800 We don't want to be caught on preparing the looks. 747 01:04:13,460 --> 01:04:15,320 I think the biggest thing is, again, 748 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:17,900 we have such great services here. 749 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:18,040 Yes. 750 01:04:18,260 --> 01:04:20,000 With our ambulance, with our police, with our fire, 751 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:21,160 we have such amazing services. 752 01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:21,540 Yeah. 753 01:04:21,940 --> 01:04:23,660 And they're, they're very well trained. 754 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:25,400 They're, they're experienced. 755 01:04:26,220 --> 01:04:29,040 You know, so that, those are the resources we're going to go on first. 756 01:04:29,980 --> 01:04:33,920 But it's really great to have these clients in place to get us a step by step. 757 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:35,700 on what to do, basically. 758 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:38,220 We also have four routes to get up to 10. 759 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,340 Not just one, but some unfortunate. 760 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:44,660 The reason that part is harder than there is basically because 761 01:04:44,660 --> 01:04:47,520 hazards can still impact those things, the landslides fall for, 762 01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:52,160 you know, we do have more routes to get out then than many communities. 763 01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:56,400 Absolutely. But those things don't be limited because it's a per. 764 01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,580 Yeah. Thank you for that. 765 01:05:03,540 --> 01:05:21,680 The motion that is at the report titles of final hazard risk and vulnerability assessment data today from the emergency management requirement readiness coordinate to be received for information and further that consult adopt the hazard risk and vulnerability assessment for the town of Cresting 2026. 766 01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:25,680 So, it's been emotional for the Council of Voluntary Feltzmann's 767 01:05:26,300 --> 01:05:26,580 discussion. 768 01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:28,220 Paul in favor. 769 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:30,020 She and his carry. 770 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:31,780 Thank you for all that. 771 01:05:32,060 --> 01:05:33,420 It's still about me for a couple more. 772 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:33,820 Okay. 773 01:05:34,180 --> 01:05:36,780 We'll take it on with the electric car show program. 774 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:38,680 I think that people are interested in that. 775 01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:39,680 Next. 776 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:42,540 Never got the minority rate. 777 01:05:43,420 --> 01:05:45,300 So, for the car show program. 778 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:50,460 Staff are seeking direction from council regarding the press 779 01:05:50,460 --> 01:05:54,260 and Valid Climate Action Society's request for a dedicated level 2 780 01:05:54,260 --> 01:05:58,920 devy charger and parking space for the purpose of operating a torture 781 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:03,960 program. So to support this program, there is a free level 2 782 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:09,500 charger in the coaxory parking lot that staff recommend requesting a 783 01:06:09,500 --> 01:06:14,660 replacement for with the install of a new level 2 charger with RFID 784 01:06:14,660 --> 01:06:19,940 capabilities. And so RFID just means the charger can be controlled to 785 01:06:19,940 --> 01:06:26,120 system verification. Science would support this program implementation and may help with 786 01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:31,720 noncompliance, but can't fully ensure that outside brews won't use that designated 787 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:37,780 parking space. And enforcement for this program would exceed current service levels, especially 788 01:06:37,780 --> 01:06:43,840 outside of regular working hours. There is a cost of replacement for the charter, 789 01:06:44,220 --> 01:06:48,740 there would be about 15 to 16,000 purchase and install of the charter, as well as service 790 01:06:48,740 --> 01:06:55,240 annual service fees moving forward, which they plan society may be unwilling or unable 791 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:55,940 for purchase. 792 01:06:58,100 --> 01:07:01,620 As a benefit, the removal of the free Tesla Charter could see an increase 793 01:07:01,620 --> 01:07:07,880 in the usage of a questions three other paid stations. And there's benefits to your 794 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:12,380 parks or programs such as the increase accessibility and mobility to those who don't have a vehicle, 795 01:07:13,060 --> 01:07:17,600 or for low-income individuals, and it may reduce strain on road infrastructure. 796 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,480 Even still, some individuals may not be able to access a 797 01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:23,800 carceral program due to cost or accessibility requirements. 798 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:30,100 To summarize, staff are recommending that Council direct staff to offer a dedicated 799 01:07:30,100 --> 01:07:36,620 parking space at regular rates and then to request that the Climate Society provide a level 800 01:07:36,620 --> 01:07:41,320 to charge their width or fragmented credibility and for staff to bring the parking lot by a long 801 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:47,220 moment for the designated space and collaborate with the Climate Society on an agreement 802 01:07:47,220 --> 01:07:55,320 for alternatively, council could consider purchasing the charter in an upcoming 2027 in the upcoming 803 01:07:55,320 --> 01:08:01,080 municipal purchases. Any questions about that? 804 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:15,120 I see that the biggest challenge is unless it's somehow prohibited in terms of the RFID 805 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:22,260 that people will, that have been using the Tesla one, will go, okay, that's still a charger 806 01:08:22,260 --> 01:08:26,120 and now I have to pay for it, but I don't know what the other one is, and I'm just going 807 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:32,980 to park my car in for three hours, plug that up, and the rental or the right share car 808 01:08:32,980 --> 01:08:35,500 is circling the block waiting to get back in there. 809 01:08:36,100 --> 01:08:41,060 How is that going to resolve itself, because you don't have anybody to come and second 810 01:08:41,060 --> 01:08:43,540 enforce it and have somebody towed at your system? 811 01:08:43,540 --> 01:08:47,340 We can't fully mitigate that issue. 812 01:08:47,540 --> 01:08:49,660 We can do things to help. 813 01:08:49,860 --> 01:08:51,640 Like, again, we can have dedicated signage. 814 01:08:52,020 --> 01:08:53,900 And the RFID capability means that anyone 815 01:08:53,900 --> 01:08:55,620 part of their can't use that charter. 816 01:08:56,500 --> 01:08:59,340 But we can't fully block it off. 817 01:08:59,540 --> 01:09:00,240 We're using that. 818 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:04,780 But somebody who doesn't have part of the program ID 819 01:09:04,780 --> 01:09:07,940 can't use it for charge, they can't actually... 820 01:09:07,940 --> 01:09:09,600 I was fairly clear on this. 821 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:10,800 But that's our ID card. 822 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:11,940 Yeah. 823 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:19,020 Is there, um, is that the only location that has been looked at? 824 01:09:19,380 --> 01:09:23,500 It's, it's the only location that has the infrastructure already there. 825 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:29,240 So we could put in other infrastructure elsewhere, but it would cost more. 826 01:09:29,980 --> 01:09:31,540 And you still have the same issues. 827 01:09:32,540 --> 01:09:32,640 Right. 828 01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:35,260 Because there, that's it. 829 01:09:35,340 --> 01:09:36,880 There's only the one Tesla. 830 01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:37,840 Yeah, sure. 831 01:09:38,060 --> 01:09:38,320 Okay. 832 01:09:42,820 --> 01:09:49,780 The impact of taking out the free charger will that be possibly presented by businesses? 833 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:55,300 Because it's, I don't know how many that's just people passing through quite a lot. 834 01:09:55,440 --> 01:10:00,760 What the usage profile and that charger is, but it's the only free one because it's unmonitored. 835 01:10:00,780 --> 01:10:02,920 It's honestly hard to say we don't know who's using it. 836 01:10:03,020 --> 01:10:03,960 How long are you using it for? 837 01:10:04,100 --> 01:10:06,400 It would be the same car parked there all day every day. 838 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:07,860 It's honestly, we don't know. 839 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:10,840 So is there potential for that? 840 01:10:11,700 --> 01:10:12,180 Yes. 841 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:18,480 However, currently, you're paying for the electricity 842 01:10:18,480 --> 01:10:21,700 for these are no, I mentioned that definitely. 843 01:10:22,020 --> 01:10:24,000 So it's just the fact that you're taking something that 844 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:26,860 was free away and you're not actually 845 01:10:26,860 --> 01:10:28,740 replacing with anything other than people 846 01:10:28,740 --> 01:10:29,700 that are part of the right share. 847 01:10:29,940 --> 01:10:31,100 My response to that. 848 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,360 So just very quickly to add to that, though, 849 01:10:33,480 --> 01:10:35,360 is that this was going to come to counsel 850 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:42,280 regardless of this request as I sure that the that free charger with when it was put in was before electric cars were really a thing 851 01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:48,760 It was kind of to encourage people now that there are more means for him. It doesn't make sense that we're paying for any electricity 852 01:10:49,540 --> 01:10:51,020 And for people and 853 01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:55,740 To get free electricity for the vehicles, which is more come more commonplace 854 01:10:55,740 --> 01:10:57,520 And so that's one this 855 01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:04,100 Regardless of this issue the recommendation with the fee review is to remove that free status from that charger 856 01:11:04,100 --> 01:11:11,120 And it's a level thing, and I assume we're taking small steps because at this point we're 857 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:12,180 dealing with one car, right? 858 01:11:12,940 --> 01:11:12,980 Yeah. 859 01:11:13,440 --> 01:11:13,600 Yeah. 860 01:11:13,940 --> 01:11:14,640 So I thought so. 861 01:11:15,060 --> 01:11:18,600 It may grow in time and where we may be, council may be faced with more decisions. 862 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:22,240 But at this point, we're talking about one car in a place to park at a chart. 863 01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:27,180 So with that, I will read the motion. 864 01:11:28,480 --> 01:11:34,400 The council of RecSnap to offer a dedicated parking space in the Cook Street parking lot and regular rate according 865 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:39,480 into the fees and charges by law because the Creston Valley Climate Action Society by the 866 01:11:39,480 --> 01:11:47,120 purpose of a car share program conditional on CVC A.S. providing a level 2 EV charger to support 867 01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:51,360 the program and completion of an agreement for outlining responsibilities and requirements 868 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:57,880 that council direct staff to present amendments to the parking lot by law number 185, 2019, 869 01:11:57,880 --> 01:12:03,680 designating the space in the Cook Street parking lot for the car share program for council 870 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:08,540 consideration and upcoming council meetings and further that council directs that to collaborate 871 01:12:08,540 --> 01:12:15,640 with CVCAS to draft an agreement addressing program operating cost science and insulation requirements 872 01:12:15,640 --> 01:12:21,020 for council's consideration and an upcoming regular council meeting. Well that is one more 873 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:23,400 Councilor Holland, seconded Councilor 874 01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:26,560 involvement, discussion, one favor? 875 01:12:28,800 --> 01:12:32,220 Councilor Arries, was there anything to add or ask 876 01:12:32,220 --> 01:12:35,360 or were you supporting the motion? 877 01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:36,520 I was supporting motion. 878 01:12:36,940 --> 01:12:38,640 Yeah, thank you. 879 01:12:39,500 --> 01:12:40,860 I didn't want to ignore you. 880 01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:45,520 So it actually is a request for decision on emergency 881 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:47,920 management, or it's freeing whether or 882 01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:49,640 we should fly over a couple of days before it. 883 01:12:50,860 --> 01:12:55,260 Thank you for your work, so this one is just recommended 884 01:12:55,260 --> 01:12:58,420 amendments to our extreme weather response plan. 885 01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:01,040 This is for two reasons. 886 01:13:01,620 --> 01:13:03,940 One is to align with an environment 887 01:13:03,940 --> 01:13:06,200 and this new color-coded alert weather system 888 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:08,020 that they released this year. 889 01:13:09,440 --> 01:13:11,640 And then the other is to address for an extreme weather 890 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:13,520 shelter that now exists in town, 891 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:15,840 that wasn't anticipated last time 892 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:17,540 and that this on this roti calisthene. 893 01:13:19,380 --> 01:13:22,500 So in 2026 environment, Canada did adopt this 894 01:13:22,500 --> 01:13:24,380 new kind of color-coded weather alert system. 895 01:13:25,480 --> 01:13:28,580 With health risks, change your zinc rotis yellow to red 896 01:13:28,580 --> 01:13:29,240 for their alert. 897 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:33,380 The yellow warning thing questions 30 at 35 to 33, 898 01:13:33,740 --> 01:13:37,960 33 to 35 degrees Celsius for heat alerts 899 01:13:38,500 --> 01:13:41,160 with overnight taps at 15 to 16 Celsius 900 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:42,280 for two harmonies. 901 01:13:43,100 --> 01:13:44,840 And that does change specifically 902 01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:49,700 with the overnight temperature, but previously it was 18 degrees and they dropped that temperature down. 903 01:13:52,350 --> 01:13:56,150 The updated activation criteria trigger the opening of a warning overhead center 904 01:13:56,150 --> 01:14:00,050 as before, but this time specifically with the call to core data alerts. 905 01:14:02,170 --> 01:14:08,450 And this amendment also aligns with the or considers that the MCIR doesn't typically provide funding 906 01:14:08,450 --> 01:14:12,970 for an overnight warning center when an extreme weather shelter is available. So that's another 907 01:14:12,970 --> 01:14:18,470 reason why we recommend these amendments. With these changes, the towns still need to 908 01:14:18,470 --> 01:14:24,570 legislate their publications and may require fewer stopping resources. However, it does mean 909 01:14:24,570 --> 01:14:29,710 that access to warm space can be more limited to vulnerable individuals who are at home, 910 01:14:30,050 --> 01:14:33,050 because specifically extreme weather shelters are at home. 911 01:14:36,510 --> 01:14:37,110 All 912 01:14:39,260 --> 01:14:44,580 right, there's going to be a motion that can receive this record and the Council adopt the 913 01:14:46,980 --> 01:14:49,180 that's the word that I have a question. 914 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:54,140 It's the smoke out of looking through, 915 01:14:54,220 --> 01:14:56,800 there's nothing I couldn't see anything that talks about what 916 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,920 this going to be an emerging problem 917 01:14:58,920 --> 01:14:59,620 would be. 918 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:28,200 Just a heat, often connected to smoke, so it's not just a warming or a cooling center. It's a fresh air resource. Right. Nothing in this, but it's all temperature-based. Our activation procedure does consider air pollution. So it does at a lower temperature of the accelerator, but higher air pollution. But currently, no, it doesn't consider the same air shelters. But. 919 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:36,740 The air, when you get the alerts on your weather report on your phone, it comes up with severe air quality issue. 920 01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:40,460 And it's again color coded as well as. 921 01:15:41,540 --> 01:15:47,700 That is also a recommendation in our HRVA to consider thin air shelters or filters in our public buildings. 922 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:54,140 It's also once the drug we can certainly look into what's available now and for 923 01:15:54,140 --> 01:15:57,820 entering that back for consideration under planning, but that's correct 924 01:15:57,820 --> 01:16:01,340 currently it doesn't just considerations with the activation criteria. 925 01:16:03,940 --> 01:16:05,440 Focus on this. Sorry to interrupt. 926 01:16:06,260 --> 01:16:10,700 All right now. Can I have a mover for that one? 927 01:16:13,250 --> 01:16:15,130 We have the executive council has the discussion. 928 01:16:16,390 --> 01:16:16,830 All in fair. 929 01:16:18,010 --> 01:16:18,350 Motion. 930 01:16:18,590 --> 01:16:19,070 Sharing. 931 01:16:20,510 --> 01:16:21,630 Any we have. 932 01:16:22,090 --> 01:16:23,330 The next year it's the correspondence. 933 01:16:24,090 --> 01:16:25,370 First is the. 934 01:16:25,890 --> 01:16:27,570 From Arden Jones or the question. 935 01:16:28,090 --> 01:16:29,830 Youth council with this is yesterday. 936 01:16:29,950 --> 01:16:30,070 That. 937 01:16:30,470 --> 01:16:31,730 Preston have someone. 938 01:16:32,010 --> 01:16:33,310 He's councilor. 939 01:16:33,830 --> 01:16:34,210 And. 940 01:16:34,670 --> 01:16:37,770 And you think might that would require some sort of election. 941 01:16:37,910 --> 01:16:38,830 It's they have an initiative. 942 01:16:38,830 --> 01:16:44,030 the council or other than that, they can be here just as a representative of you to 943 01:16:44,610 --> 01:16:50,130 to the meetings, right? I was just looking into it and like Elkberg has a 944 01:16:50,130 --> 01:16:53,670 there's a bunch of communities have it and it's not an elected thing. People have they put 945 01:16:54,350 --> 01:16:59,190 application in that they're not necessarily a memory meeting but they're ready to sound media. 946 01:16:59,430 --> 01:17:07,410 So they might have lots of different ways to do it. Yeah, I was looking at it too and even 947 01:17:07,410 --> 01:17:22,450 And, you know, some communities are doing something that parallels a little bit like what we're doing with the public art working group committee, where there are youth representatives, maybe from church groups and from the high school, from that kind of key. 948 01:17:23,930 --> 01:17:32,750 And they're not necessarily at every council meeting, but they are also reviewing documents that are being made by council. 949 01:17:35,110 --> 01:17:40,350 Well, I will ask Kirsten, would there be things that we would have to do sort of a protocol? 950 01:17:41,130 --> 01:17:43,550 I'm sort of organized way to do this. I'm happy. 951 01:17:44,270 --> 01:17:48,170 You know, I think for right now, if it's something council is interested in, 952 01:17:48,170 --> 01:17:51,270 it would certainly refer to synoptic coming up with a bit of a proposal. 953 01:17:51,810 --> 01:17:55,490 So similar to the other advisory committees that you do have, 954 01:17:55,790 --> 01:17:57,870 if you wanted to have a new advisory committee, 955 01:17:57,870 --> 01:18:07,710 you would want to consider a fence of reference in a high location process so that it's individuals who come actually up by and that's certainly something that you could look at. 956 01:18:07,930 --> 01:18:10,770 Do a bit of research for what other communities do such as that. 957 01:18:11,510 --> 01:18:25,230 But my recommendation would be to make sure that whatever councils as direct that it's fair that there is a transparent way for applications and a fence of reference that would govern them so that it's no relatively easy to administer. 958 01:18:31,530 --> 01:18:36,730 So we do have the customer values that are available to us and that could be an excellent 959 01:18:36,730 --> 01:18:40,470 resource for supporting that piece of engagement. 960 01:18:41,570 --> 01:18:45,950 Probably recommend them to stay but then corporate services, but they're definitely an organization 961 01:18:45,950 --> 01:18:51,010 that's very in touch with you for quality and gain and captures that high school majoring 962 01:18:51,010 --> 01:18:54,130 for them.

Thank you. 1004 01:21:44,380 --> 01:21:45,340 Thank you. 1005 01:21:45,940 --> 01:21:50,400 We do have a new policy on our on our grants. 1006 01:21:51,020 --> 01:21:57,200 And so the person is there as a streamer or an application that they could put in so that it could come before us for discussion. 1007 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:04,460 There are absolutely two points of the other grants that we do have available are the 1008 01:22:04,460 --> 01:22:09,100 any ready grant to receive any T. So the talent press there gets an allocation of that 1009 01:22:09,100 --> 01:22:15,600 annually that they're able to have been started that process about the January process to, 1010 01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:22,060 you know, closes in April, the application closes February. So that is a streamer, there are 1011 01:22:22,060 --> 01:22:25,960 some hard to suitcase streams. So that would be a recommendation. You can put it in the 1012 01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:33,520 I said, in town, we could try and direct you to a grant stream, but there's no guarantees, of course, that there would be a grant stream that we necessarily for it. 1013 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:39,340 Yeah, but the car that ends the charger was looking at $65,000. That's a lot more money than the background. 1014 01:22:40,140 --> 01:22:40,560 That's right. 1015 01:22:44,340 --> 01:22:48,020 Well, we're, I was not going to talk, but I'm just going to say one thing. 1016 01:22:48,020 --> 01:22:56,100 And so the second option was to keep the Tesla charger and I don't know how much you've 1017 01:22:56,100 --> 01:22:56,580 been spending. 1018 01:22:56,820 --> 01:23:02,360 How much you've been spending annually to subsidize Tesla owners up until this point, 1019 01:23:02,540 --> 01:23:03,020 do you know? 1020 01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:07,340 It would be electricity was five to ten dollars a day, I think. 1021 01:23:07,660 --> 01:23:07,800 Yes. 1022 01:23:08,300 --> 01:23:11,680 So it was like five or six thousand a year for how many years? 1023 01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:13,640 Sorry, I'll just leave. 1024 01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:19,360 It's not always a day. There's a program that's using it regularly every day. 1025 01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:25,020 We don't know exactly how much it will cost us for that one. 1026 01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:27,840 It's not that high. There's her who's right now. 1027 01:23:28,140 --> 01:23:32,580 It is based on, I think, a regular use program where that credit is granted out this 1028 01:23:32,580 --> 01:23:33,000 couple of days. 1029 01:23:35,660 --> 01:23:37,940 Well, I just see I mentioned we are facing. 1030 01:23:38,020 --> 01:23:39,340 We're planning to face that. 1031 01:23:39,340 --> 01:23:54,120 But I really appreciate the staff put in the work to explore it and that the council thought about it because I've been looking at your agendas for the last couple of months and I'm going, oh my goodness, there's so much going on. 1032 01:23:54,220 --> 01:24:04,920 And then with the threat of wildfire and all the smoke and I know there's a lot on your mind and so maybe at a future day when it's a little lighter. 1033 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:12,540 you know, in town and we'll revisit it and it's not necessarily dead in the 1034 01:24:12,540 --> 01:24:17,060 water but we do feel very discouraged and disappointed but I'm sure you 1035 01:24:17,060 --> 01:24:21,700 expect this that we will feel this way. We are very hopeful because the 1036 01:24:21,700 --> 01:24:26,660 district of Invermere we're very supportive of the so we thought we will 1037 01:24:26,660 --> 01:24:31,460 far more progressive than the district of Invermere but I can see that there's 1038 01:24:31,460 --> 01:24:38,660 too much going on in the tax base. But I also didn't know. We weren't asking for a new 1039 01:24:38,660 --> 01:24:43,520 charger. I thought it would be an existing one. But Joel was saying some of the agreements 1040 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:49,160 with all the other people who installed the charges. So they couldn't be a dedicated to 1041 01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:56,560 just one group or public. So anyway, thank you so much for considering it and for all the 1042 01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:57,560 work that you do for us. 1043 01:24:58,500 --> 01:25:00,260 So I guess I'll ask this of Mike. 1044 01:25:01,480 --> 01:25:03,380 You know, there is such a thing as a motion to reconsider. 1045 01:25:03,380 --> 01:25:06,380 And I don't really think this is the meeting to do that. 1046 01:25:06,480 --> 01:25:08,980 But if a councilor wanted to introduce a motion 1047 01:25:08,980 --> 01:25:10,820 to reconsider this, I could be done 1048 01:25:10,820 --> 01:25:12,180 at an upcoming council meeting, right? 1049 01:25:14,340 --> 01:25:17,020 Certainly, or the group could actually just put 1050 01:25:17,020 --> 01:25:19,160 in a grant request for council's consideration 1051 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,760 of future date, which I think would be the easiest way. 1052 01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:26,280 And you know, the request was for a dedicated spot 1053 01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:34,840 for parking a vehicle, which was considered and granted. So really what their statements 1054 01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:41,380 are at the moment is that the costs of the car church are itself, which certainly they could 1055 01:25:41,380 --> 01:25:46,060 put in that request to council. The separate requests for council's consideration and perhaps for 1056 01:25:46,060 --> 01:25:52,660 the budget process council to look at that's council's pleasure. But that would be my suggestion, 1057 01:25:52,660 --> 01:25:57,920 just to submit a letter for the grant request for that and then you know 1058 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:01,560 certainly staff can have that back in front of council when council can decide 1059 01:26:01,560 --> 01:26:05,420 what to do with it at that point which would be the same as bringing back 1060 01:26:05,420 --> 01:26:08,900 and needing to reconsider because that's the same thing. But it is a bunch of 1061 01:26:08,900 --> 01:26:15,160 impact. We weren't wanting the town and taxpayers to pay very 1062 01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:25,820 charger for us. That was not our intention. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was just going to say, you know, 1063 01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:34,900 what we did pass was that staff would meet with you guys. And they will bring back information, 1064 01:26:34,900 --> 01:26:41,260 which very well may include what you've just stated. And so then there is the opportunity for us to 1065 01:26:41,260 --> 01:26:47,500 more other options that have all specific things. So it's not necessarily 1066 01:26:47,500 --> 01:26:49,340 that. I know. 1067 01:26:52,350 --> 01:26:52,870 Thank you. 1068 01:26:53,870 --> 01:26:56,570 First, hi, how are you? Good, thank you, your worship. 1069 01:26:56,970 --> 01:27:01,350 I don't know.
