Um he went through the statute 97 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,600 noted that there was no nothing new or 98 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,519 anything new that would affect our 99 00:09:49,519 --> 00:09:52,880 ability to uh provide some monies to the 100 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,760 fire department for the requests.

So he suggested to make this 113 00:10:27,839 --> 00:10:30,240 really simple is let the fire department 114 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,160 do whatever their bidding process is 115 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,440 internally and whatever they decide to 116 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,920 purchase we we will agree to fund up to 117 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,440 a certain amount of whatever that 118 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,160 apparatus is they bring us a copy of the 119 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,600 sales order and we stroke them a check 120 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,279 I don't know gentlemen if it gets any 121 00:10:47,279 --> 00:10:49,839 easier than that 122 00:10:49,839 --> 00:10:52,240 so which made me very happy because 123 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,920 attorneys sometimes don't make things 124 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,680 any easier Uh so anyway, that being 125 00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:00,720 said, I'll I'll uh hand the uh floor 126 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,839 over to uh Council Member Morave to 127 00:11:03,839 --> 00:11:06,160 continue for the continued discussion. 128 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,920 >> Yes. So last month, we weren't 100% 129 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,360 certain how much money was in the speed 130 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,480 camera funds. Since then, we thought it 131 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,720 was around 400,000 or so. Since then, we 132 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,240 were able to get the number of 642,000 133 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,000 that's currently in the fund. So, my 134 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,240 suggestion is that we fund the rescue 135 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:39,600 struts and the utility truck.

Another aspect 433 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,640 of this permit is that the community 434 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:51,120 needs to have availability and a way to 435 00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:53,840 uh flag discharges that like if you see 436 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,600 your neighbor dumping his oil to the 437 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,000 stove drain or if you see your neighbor 438 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,760 is raiding his backyard to put a hole 439 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,080 in, there's a round water well coming 440 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,760 straight down into the screen.

Uh there's 443 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:18,640 uh a governmental ordinance side of it, but the town 444 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,640 already has a lot of that covered. So 445 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,720 the town needs to be able to inspect and 446 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,480 look at all storm drains, whether 447 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,720 they're private, public property, and 448 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,720 storm water management facilities. 449 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,559 Luckily the way all your improvement 450 00:26:30,559 --> 00:26:32,960 plans and agreements were written for 451 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,559 Franklin matter the order Royal Oaks the 452 00:26:36,559 --> 00:26:38,880 HOAs themselves are responsible for this 453 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,039 and they take the responsibility and the 454 00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:43,679 town has easements on all those storm 455 00:26:43,679 --> 00:26:45,679 water management facilities.

That can include um stream 560 00:34:10,159 --> 00:34:13,760 cleanups, being part of the green team, 561 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,000 um, if there's any collaboration with 562 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,919 local schools. There's a lot of 563 00:34:17,919 --> 00:34:21,119 opportunities for the the town to be 564 00:34:21,119 --> 00:34:23,359 able to claim these first two uh, 565 00:34:23,359 --> 00:34:25,440 minimum requirements. 566 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,280 The third is elicit discharge, 567 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,159 detection, and elimination. And 568 00:34:30,159 --> 00:34:31,760 essentially what this is is they're 569 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,159 looking for hot spots where there's 570 00:34:34,159 --> 00:34:35,760 illicit discharge. And what that means 571 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,480 is potential pollutants entering the 572 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,440 waterways. That can be um grease from 573 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,399 grease traps at restaurants. It can be 574 00:34:44,399 --> 00:34:47,040 any residues coming off of maintenance 575 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,079 yards. So any potential contaminant that 576 00:34:50,079 --> 00:34:52,800 could be entering um 577 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,320 entering into the storm drain. They're 578 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,480 looking for those hot spots. Uh a lot of 579 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,560 times you'll see those coming out of 580 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,480 storm drain outfalls and you'll be able 581 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:04,400 to trace those back. Um also the 582 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,680 construction of um storm water runoff 583 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,200 controls 584 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,960 uh which is going to be your storm water 585 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,200 management facilities post construction 586 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,280 storm water management. That's going to 587 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,359 be the inspection, typically a triannual 588 00:35:17,359 --> 00:35:19,200 inspection of the facilities to ensure 589 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:20,720 that they're in good standing and 590 00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:22,880 reporting any maintenance that's done 591 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,720 and pollution prevention and good 592 00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:27,280 housekeeping. And that's looking at 593 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,800 overall town uh facilities and ensuring 594 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,680 that there's no um exposure of 595 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,640 contaminants to the local waterways, um 596 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,040 fueling stations, for example, any 597 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,599 maintenance yards. Obviously, these a 598 00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:43,200 lot of these are going to be for larger 599 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,640 scale municipalities. So, it will be 600 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:53,760 scaled down um to follow in suit with the size of the town. Um and the 601 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,480 final very large uh component is the 602 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,680 impervious area restoration requirement. 603 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:03,520 And typically for the first year of a 604 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,960 new permittee, there will be a 20% 605 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:11,760 reduction in untreated impervious area. 606 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:13,680 And so we've started going through the 607 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,040 process of identifying all of the storm 608 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,839 drain um pipes, structures that can 609 00:36:19,839 --> 00:36:24,240 include manholes, inlets, um different 610 00:36:24,240 --> 00:36:28,000 um junction boxes, and so forth. as well 611 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,920 as identifying all of the storm water 612 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,680 management facilities and delineating 613 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,160 all the drainage areas for that. And 614 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:35,920 with that information, what we're able 615 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,440 to do is um quantify the amount of 616 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,119 imperous area that is currently draining 617 00:36:43,119 --> 00:36:45,839 to a storm water management facility. 618 00:36:45,839 --> 00:36:48,800 And once we have that that number, it's 619 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,119 called the baseline. And so, for 620 00:36:51,119 --> 00:36:54,880 example, if we say we have a 100 square 621 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:59,520 miles of untreated impervious area, our 622 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,599 um permit requirement over the the 623 00:37:01,599 --> 00:37:05,040 5-year permit would typically be a 20% 624 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,839 reduction. And so, instead of 100, you 625 00:37:07,839 --> 00:37:10,480 would want to see 80. And the ways that 626 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,640 you can meet this criteria is you can do 627 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,320 stream and outfall works or stream 628 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,040 restoration. If you have outfalls 629 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,800 um that are eroding um there's there's 630 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,560 various measures you can do to treat 631 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,520 those um tree plantings, sports 632 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:31,680 conservation and um septic connections. 633 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:35,920 So, tying current septic systems into uh 634 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,520 public 635 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,560 water and sewer. 636 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:44,240 So, out of the six minimum control 637 00:37:44,240 --> 00:37:47,040 measures um that we know are going to be 638 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,640 in place, we're in very good shape for 639 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,760 the first three with not even have the 640 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,400 permit in place yet. Um you know, the 641 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,359 town already has the green team. We 642 00:37:59,359 --> 00:38:01,599 already have educational 643 00:38:01,599 --> 00:38:04,160 uh material and I'll go over that in a 644 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,640 little bit more detail in a moment. Um 645 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,160 we have training material to be able to 646 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,800 train any potential staff that will come 647 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,880 on or if you have a contractor that's 648 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,040 coming on if you want them to get 649 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,440 trained in it, you can also report that 650 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,880 to MDE. Um especially since the town 651 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,119 some of that some of those contractors 652 00:38:25,119 --> 00:38:26,960 essentially act as the the town's 653 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,680 maintenance. um elicit discharge 654 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,079 detection elimination. I've gone through 655 00:38:32,079 --> 00:38:34,240 and identified locations and 656 00:38:34,240 --> 00:38:38,880 opportunities to um do sampling and the 657 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,599 appropriate documentation for that. The 658 00:38:41,599 --> 00:38:43,839 last three, construction of storm water 659 00:38:43,839 --> 00:38:46,720 facilities, um post construction of 660 00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:48,240 storm water management facilities. 661 00:38:48,240 --> 00:38:52,079 Obviously, we're not to a point where 662 00:38:52,079 --> 00:38:53,680 we're designing new storm water 663 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,599 facilities or retrofitting existing 664 00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:58,960 ones. So, those two, 665 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,640 we're just not there yet. The permit's 666 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,720 not mature enough really. It doesn't 667 00:39:02,720 --> 00:39:05,040 even exist yet um for us to be able to 668 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,000 address these two. And the last one is 669 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,200 pollution prevention and good 670 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,079 housekeeping. Um the town doesn't have a 671 00:39:12,079 --> 00:39:14,400 lot in the way of its own assets for 672 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,240 there to be a very large program for 673 00:39:16,240 --> 00:39:18,079 this. So, I'm currently in coordination 674 00:39:18,079 --> 00:39:20,880 with MDE to help better define what the 675 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,240 requirements are going to be for the 676 00:39:22,240 --> 00:39:24,079 town. 677 00:39:24,079 --> 00:39:26,400 Um, for the impervious restoration, I 678 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,160 mentioned that baseline. So, we've 679 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,640 gotten the impervious area inventory, 680 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,440 um, the storm water and drainage, um, 681 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,960 delineation, 682 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,800 our treatment calculations for all the 683 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,040 storm water management facilities, as 684 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,200 well as the, um, impervious area 685 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,800 baseline calculated. So essentially what 686 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,960 amount of imperous area within the town 687 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,760 is already being treated. 688 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,800 Um the agency coordination as I 689 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,880 mentioned we've been coordinating with 690 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,119 MDE as well as state highway 691 00:39:57,119 --> 00:39:59,839 administration and the county. Um 692 00:39:59,839 --> 00:40:02,400 they're going to be, you know, obviously 693 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,520 adjacent partners um going through Main 694 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,320 Street with the changes in right of way 695 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,040 um with the the project that occurred 696 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,680 several years ago. Um coordinating who's 697 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,520 going to be responsible for treatment 698 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,880 within that area. um and essentially 699 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,960 establishing a a relationship that's 700 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:22,480 going to demonstrate the town is going 701 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,440 to be good partners to those adjacent uh 702 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,320 entities. 703 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,680 And for the MPDS database, this is a 704 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,440 quick map um given just an overview of 705 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,680 what we have in place currently. And 706 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:41,119 what you can see is the green areas are 707 00:40:41,119 --> 00:40:42,720 currently the areas that are treated by 708 00:40:42,720 --> 00:40:45,920 storm water management facilities. The 709 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:50,000 yellow is untreated town impervious. 710 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:55,920 The purple is SHA impervious and blue is 711 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,680 um Frederick County. And if you'll 712 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,280 notice going through Main Street um that 713 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,640 showing is SHA and that is intentional. 714 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,280 I know that may flag question. Uh we've 715 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,200 been coordinating with State Highway on 716 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:10,400 defining who's going to have 717 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,280 responsibility for Main Street. And 718 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:14,800 currently the way that their permit is 719 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,280 set up, they already have jurisdiction 720 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,640 for that. So until their permit um 721 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,440 expires or they have to recalculate a 722 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,359 baseline, it's going to maintain under 723 00:41:25,359 --> 00:41:28,640 them. And so that gives us a little bit 724 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,640 of leeway in terms of being able to get 725 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,920 the program established and focusing on 726 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,839 kind of more lowhanging fruits. As we 727 00:41:35,839 --> 00:41:37,359 all know, Main Street's pretty well 728 00:41:37,359 --> 00:41:39,119 developed, so it's going to be a lot 729 00:41:39,119 --> 00:41:40,640 more difficult to provide treatment in 730 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,560 that area. 731 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,280 Um, another thing that we've done is 732 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,760 provided a story map. So, we went 733 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,520 through and developed 734 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:55,920 a outline of the town status 735 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,760 and this ties into um public engagement, 736 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,079 education, outreach. So, it gives an 737 00:42:02,079 --> 00:42:06,640 overview of what the permit is. Um so we 738 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,560 go through kind of it ex it um runs 739 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,440 every five years you know provides links 740 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,160 to u get more information as well as an 741 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,760 interactive map showing the town's storm 742 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,560 water structures um and stormwater 743 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,560 management facilities 744 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,040 listing out what the town requirements 745 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,960 are and I'll provide a link to this so 746 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,000 that um folks can can kind of poke 747 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,880 through on their own time but it clearly 748 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,560 lays about what each of the minimum 749 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,040 control measures are. 750 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,760 We also have an outline of what our 751 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,000 currently efforts are current efforts 752 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,920 are um underway right now and a little 753 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,400 synopsis of what folks can do right now 754 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,640 in helping us get uh ramped up for this 755 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:57,119 permit. Um overall, we're in a very good 756 00:42:57,119 --> 00:42:59,200 position. um we've been able to get a 757 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,280 lot done before the permit has even 758 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,560 fully been published and active. And so 759 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,880 a lot of what we're doing is very 760 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:09,119 proactive and making sure that we're 761 00:43:09,119 --> 00:43:11,119 setting the the talent up for success. 762 00:43:11,119 --> 00:43:14,079 So this isn't live yet. Um you know, 763 00:43:14,079 --> 00:43:15,359 it's just something that we've been 764 00:43:15,359 --> 00:43:17,520 working on internally, but again, I'm 765 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,640 happy to to share this link with folks. 766 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:26,000 And another part of the 767 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,040 permit is going to be the ability for 768 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,400 citizens to submit complaints. And what 769 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,760 that will entail is um providing some 770 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,880 minimum contact information, the type of 771 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,200 complaint, and this is going to tie 772 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,200 directly in with that elicit discharge I 773 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,079 was mentioning. So, um, illegal dumping, 774 00:43:46,079 --> 00:43:48,240 if there's construction erosion that's, 775 00:43:48,240 --> 00:43:50,480 um, not being treated and and making its 776 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,119 way off site, um, people dumping stuff 777 00:43:53,119 --> 00:43:55,599 down storm drains. Um, they'll select 778 00:43:55,599 --> 00:43:59,520 the type, the date, um, a description of 779 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,520 the issue, and they'll be able to go 780 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,560 through this interactive map and drop a 781 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,960 pinpoint on 782 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:10,560 where um, the issue is. They can submit 783 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,480 photos and that will all get pushed up 784 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:16,240 to us. will get notified and it is going 785 00:44:16,240 --> 00:44:18,079 to provide the required documentation 786 00:44:18,079 --> 00:44:19,359 that's going to be required for the 787 00:44:19,359 --> 00:44:21,920 permit.

Uh 1380 01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:18,640 either way, it's a 1381 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,600 >> I don't know if you showed it showed it 1382 01:13:21,600 --> 01:13:24,800 on this wall. I'm not sure how and I 1383 01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:26,239 don't know what kind of announcement you 1384 01:13:26,239 --> 01:13:27,600 have there. 1385 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,000 >> Just wait turn on the lights because 1386 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:32,480 it's not that 1387 01:13:32,480 --> 01:13:34,960 I can just talk. I mean, I'm sure people 1388 01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:36,400 would love to hear me talk. So, 1389 01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,239 >> just talk. 1390 01:13:38,239 --> 01:13:41,830 >> You love your voice. 1391 01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:45,120 » Okay. So, um, we it was indicated that 1392 01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:49,199 we had the funds of about $12,552 1393 01:13:49,199 --> 01:13:51,120 that had been left over from different 1394 01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:55,440 fort conservation, uh, uh, 1395 01:13:55,440 --> 01:13:57,360 contracts that we had had with different 1396 01:13:57,360 --> 01:14:00,320 builders and things. Um, the money 1397 01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:02,960 sitting there, uh, if you haven't seen 1398 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:04,560 the inflation, you know, the money is 1399 01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:06,719 getting worth less and less. You're 1400 01:14:06,719 --> 01:14:08,480 going to buy a heck of a lot less beef 1401 01:14:08,480 --> 01:14:13,520 if we sit on it. Um so the ideas that 1402 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,560 were put forward um I believe by Pat and 1403 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:19,360 a couple of us added in those other 1404 01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:23,760 night. So uh the the ideas are to spend 1405 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:27,120 this money which we ought to uh and the 1406 01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:30,560 trees must be added to eligible areas 1407 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:34,800 that uh fall under the um forest 1408 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:38,400 conservation act that can accept the 1409 01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:42,239 trees. So, um, 1410 01:14:42,239 --> 01:14:44,880 one of the ideas was, 1411 01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:48,560 um, add trees or set up a forest along 1412 01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:52,400 the property lines of, uh, Royal Logo 1413 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:57,679 and, um, Lua and I'm looking at pictures 1414 01:14:57,679 --> 01:14:59,520 trying to figure out what that is. And I 1415 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,239 think Nicole, can you explain where 1416 01:15:02,239 --> 01:15:04,800 those are along? Is it just where the 1417 01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:07,040 houses on that port? So there are 1418 01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:10,560 houses, but then there are also um the 1419 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,960 backyard. 1420 01:15:12,960 --> 01:15:15,120 It's the backyards of all the houses 1421 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:16,719 that are on that side of 1422 01:15:16,719 --> 01:15:18,320 >> the parking signs and 1423 01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:19,920 >> there are no parking signs, but we have 1424 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:23,440 had some issues. It hasn't been yet this 1425 01:15:23,440 --> 01:15:26,640 year. Um because I do have to give Tommy 1426 01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:30,159 Welch, you know, his credit like when we 1427 01:15:30,159 --> 01:15:32,000 find someone doing that, he will 1428 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:35,679 intercede and um email everyone. But 1429 01:15:35,679 --> 01:15:38,640 there are times where specifically when 1430 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:42,560 like football, soccer, and I don't know, 1431 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:44,560 frost are all meeting at the same time 1432 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,560 and there just aren't enough spots. 1433 01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:49,280 People will make spots and so they've 1434 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:53,520 damaged um fences. They've damaged um 1435 01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:56,000 even like some drainage pipes because 1436 01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:58,320 it's not meant to be parked on. So 1437 01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:00,480 they've broken some of the pipes. So if 1438 01:16:00,480 --> 01:16:02,719 there were some trees there, it may help 1439 01:16:02,719 --> 01:16:06,560 keep people out of that area. 1440 01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:08,960 >> I hope not. I hope they stay away from 1441 01:16:08,960 --> 01:16:09,600 the trees. 1442 01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:13,760 >> So it is an area where the court is back 1443 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:14,880 to the park area 1444 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:16,880 >> and not all of it. Like one is called 1445 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:20,080 like parcel J or something. I don't So 1446 01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:23,040 it's not anybody's property necessarily. 1447 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:24,800 You should take your dirt. 1448 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:26,960 >> Um 1449 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:30,159 Frederick um Frederick landscaping comes 1450 01:16:30,159 --> 01:16:33,280 and bows like where the path and 1451 01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:36,239 >> I guess yeah. Yeah, I guess 1452 01:16:36,239 --> 01:16:38,320 >> partial J the parcel that was needed to 1453 01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:39,760 the HO. 1454 01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:42,719 >> I think that's the one that goes up the 1455 01:16:42,719 --> 01:16:46,000 hill. Um but there are more in the back. 1456 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:48,800 Okay. Other parcels. 1457 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,679 Um, but there are already trees in the 1458 01:16:51,679 --> 01:16:53,440 back there that kind of separate. 1459 01:16:53,440 --> 01:16:55,120 >> Yeah. 1460 01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:57,280 >> Okay. So, that's one idea. Everybody 1461 01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,280 knows where we're talking about there. 1462 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:04,790 Um, another one was between 1463 01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:06,800 that 1464 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:11,040 um on on Main Street between 1465 01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:12,800 143 1466 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:14,960 and 139. 1467 01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:18,400 I believe it's 200. If you know where 1468 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:21,280 the um driveway comes out from the 1469 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:23,360 middle school, 1470 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:26,000 two houses towards 1471 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:28,560 there's there's two houses on one 1472 01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:31,360 driveway and then there's an open space 1473 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:32,800 at the drainage area. 1474 01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:33,120 >> Okay. 1475 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,679 >> Uh there was a suggestion to put a 1476 01:17:35,679 --> 01:17:38,080 forest and so the town is above that 1477 01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:41,199 area. So there was a suggestion to plant 1478 01:17:41,199 --> 01:17:43,840 a lot of make it a forest area where we 1479 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,480 wouldn't have to pay to maintain it as 1480 01:17:46,480 --> 01:17:49,280 much. So 1481 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:50,560 >> you know where? 1482 01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:52,480 >> Yeah, I pulled it up. 1483 01:17:52,480 --> 01:17:53,360 >> Oh, you pulled it up. 1484 01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:55,199 >> Yeah, on Google. 1485 01:17:55,199 --> 01:17:56,560 >> Google it. 1486 01:17:56,560 --> 01:17:58,960 >> So that that's another thought. And then 1487 01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,679 the third one. Um 1488 01:18:01,679 --> 01:18:05,280 is that No. So the third one was uh the 1489 01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:08,960 town park that we're in now. uh since 1490 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:12,480 the building when that we're in now went 1491 01:18:12,480 --> 01:18:15,679 in, there may be some spot that we could 1492 01:18:15,679 --> 01:18:19,920 put trees around the park the landscape 1493 01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:24,080 a little nicer. Um 1494 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:25,840 >> can we do all three? 1495 01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:26,640 >> What's that? 1496 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:28,640 >> Can we do a little bit of each? 1497 01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,520 >> Okay, so let's talk about buying trees. 1498 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:35,360 Um, I I bought 1499 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:36,880 six 1500 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:41,520 or 80 maples of that 4 in DVA uh 1501 01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:44,960 diameter and the rest height. Okay. Uh, 1502 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:48,320 and Adam put in my relatively low thing. 1503 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:51,120 They were $800 a tree. I've got one of 1504 01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:53,920 them large trees and a couple of large 1505 01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:56,960 trees about 15 ft high, 4 in in 1506 01:18:56,960 --> 01:19:01,199 diameter. Um, and they come from come in 1507 01:19:01,199 --> 01:19:05,520 and uh they'll give you a guarantee of 1508 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:08,000 one replacement. I had two die and they 1509 01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:09,600 wouldn't do it the second time tree 1510 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:12,320 died. There's $800 a tree for a large 1511 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:14,800 tree. So that's not going to get you too 1512 01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:18,239 many trees out. Um, but they're nice 1513 01:19:18,239 --> 01:19:20,640 trees. They're beautiful maple, you 1514 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:24,800 know, things. Um, so what I want to hear 1515 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:27,600 is a little bit of discussion about what 1516 01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:31,920 kind of plants or trees that we could 1517 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,400 use in these three areas that we talked 1518 01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:37,600 about that would serve or that we think 1519 01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:41,920 would be appropriate. I know that was 1520 01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:44,640 called bridge between on main street 1521 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:48,480 there between the houses. Um, 1522 01:19:48,480 --> 01:19:51,199 and I mean here, you know, park part 1523 01:19:51,199 --> 01:19:54,000 like shade kind of trees would be nice, 1524 01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,560 but what about, you know, 1525 01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,199 part part of not mowing that one area 1526 01:19:59,199 --> 01:20:02,239 between the house would be what, you 1527 01:20:02,239 --> 01:20:05,120 know, bush type things too where the 1528 01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:07,199 bushes take over and you don't have to 1529 01:20:07,199 --> 01:20:08,960 mow the grass. I don't know. And I'm not 1530 01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:10,880 suggesting any of it. I just want you 1531 01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:13,199 guys to talk about it for 1532 01:20:13,199 --> 01:20:16,239 >> Did you have G look at it? 1533 01:20:16,239 --> 01:20:17,679 Once I have an idea of what we're 1534 01:20:17,679 --> 01:20:19,520 thinking, I want to get Jacob to price 1535 01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:21,600 it out. He would probably be the guy to 1536 01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:23,120 install it. Depends on the company you 1537 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:24,719 get it from the nursery. 1538 01:20:24,719 --> 01:20:26,400 >> Usually likes to install their own 1539 01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:28,159 stuff, but Jacob probably has some units 1540 01:20:28,159 --> 01:20:31,040 that we might be able to get a deal. So, 1541 01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:34,320 um, give me your give me your warm 1542 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:36,560 questions about what you think might be 1543 01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:39,040 nice. So, my thoughts off the top of my 1544 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:40,640 head are one, you want to make sure you 1545 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:42,719 have noninvasive and you want to make 1546 01:20:42,719 --> 01:20:45,600 sure you have natural Maryland type 1547 01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:48,560 trees be planted. If you're talking 1548 01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:50,320 about the lot up there, I'm just going 1549 01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:53,360 to say the one that's next to DD Binos. 1550 01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:55,280 That's how I reference it. 1551 01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:58,320 >> Uh, I'm that's probably a good idea. My 1552 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:01,679 only concern would be, and this goes to 1553 01:21:01,679 --> 01:21:02,960 all the lots, is would that be a 1554 01:21:02,960 --> 01:21:05,199 qualified area to put put the PL 1555 01:21:05,199 --> 01:21:07,120 plantings? And secondly, what 1556 01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:09,040 expectations are the residents going to 1557 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:09,920 have 1558 01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:13,199 >> for maintenance? Because, you know, I 1559 01:21:13,199 --> 01:21:15,360 can just tell you when we annexed over 1560 01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:18,080 there by um where Freezone Fitness is 1561 01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:20,239 and all that stuff, there's a there's a 1562 01:21:20,239 --> 01:21:24,640 forestation area there.

So cuz I love a tree 1590 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:26,480 but I don't like a tree next to my 1591 01:22:26,480 --> 01:22:28,719 buildings or anything else because you 1592 01:22:28,719 --> 01:22:31,120 know they you know leaves get in your 1593 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,679 gutters. you know, they, you know, all 1594 01:22:33,679 --> 01:22:35,440 the stuff that comes off of trees gets 1595 01:22:35,440 --> 01:22:37,679 on your shingles and on your siding and 1596 01:22:37,679 --> 01:22:39,360 it's hard, it makes it hard for the 1597 01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:42,000 upkeep.

So, I don't know that 1765 01:30:02,159 --> 01:30:04,719 there's any urgency to this, although I 1766 01:30:04,719 --> 01:30:07,520 do appreciate the suggestions. I think 1767 01:30:07,520 --> 01:30:10,960 that uh we probably would have to have a 1768 01:30:10,960 --> 01:30:13,280 little bit more thought about where the 1769 01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:15,840 you know where the trees would go and 1770 01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:19,360 you know which areas are either worthy 1771 01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:22,960 or the least disruptive of residents and 1772 01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:24,639 go from there. 1773 01:30:24,639 --> 01:30:27,520 >> Cool. So we can we don't have a deadline 1774 01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:29,679 with this money other than withering 1775 01:30:29,679 --> 01:30:33,280 away from inflation right? 1776 01:30:33,280 --> 01:30:35,280 >> Yep.

So I 1798 01:31:29,679 --> 01:31:33,600 think I think they're um like uh not 1799 01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:36,719 evergreen. It's the boxwoods are called 1800 01:31:36,719 --> 01:31:38,880 pit in mezanel park.

Um I'll get a 1815 01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:13,679 little bit more information and we'll do 1816 01:32:13,679 --> 01:32:18,560 it I'll do it for our next one. 1817 01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:19,120 >> Okay. 1818 01:32:19,120 --> 01:32:20,239 >> Thanks, Howard. 1819 01:32:20,239 --> 01:32:23,040 >> Our next item is the we need to buy a 1820 01:32:23,040 --> 01:32:25,199 refrigerator for the event barn. So, we 1821 01:32:25,199 --> 01:32:27,520 have a request by council member Toronto 1822 01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:30,159 to to buy a refrigerator. 1823 01:32:30,159 --> 01:32:32,400 >> Yeah, I'll just give you guys just a 1824 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:35,440 little context. It's basically just 1825 01:32:35,440 --> 01:32:37,520 we're looking for like a commercial 1826 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:40,400 refrigerator, something similar. Um 1827 01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:42,480 something that people can put catering 1828 01:32:42,480 --> 01:32:45,120 trays in, cakes, things like that. We're 1829 01:32:45,120 --> 01:32:46,719 getting requests for birthday parties 1830 01:32:46,719 --> 01:32:49,360 and different things. So I measured the 1831 01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:52,560 space because of the counter depth out 1832 01:32:52,560 --> 01:32:54,320 and then also the width because there 1833 01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:56,560 are heating elements and things against 1834 01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:59,840 the wall to for the space. So I did 1835 01:32:59,840 --> 01:33:01,360 measure all that. It is going to stick 1836 01:33:01,360 --> 01:33:03,840 out past the counter a few inches 1837 01:33:03,840 --> 01:33:08,960 because anything um this is like a 25 in 1838 01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:11,679 countertop. So anything smaller than 1839 01:33:11,679 --> 01:33:15,120 that is a really small like floor size 1840 01:33:15,120 --> 01:33:17,199 refrigerator. So, to get the commercial 1841 01:33:17,199 --> 01:33:19,040 size, it is going to stick out a little 1842 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:22,159 bit. Um, it won't have a freezer because 1843 01:33:22,159 --> 01:33:23,920 to do a commercial with a freezer, it 1844 01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:26,239 has to be double and it won't fit in 1845 01:33:26,239 --> 01:33:27,760 that space, the width of it with the 1846 01:33:27,760 --> 01:33:29,920 elements on the other side. So, long 1847 01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:32,800 story short, it it would look pretty 1848 01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:35,679 standard size. It would have no 1849 01:33:35,679 --> 01:33:37,360 separator in the middle, glass door on 1850 01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:39,040 the front. It has to open to the right 1851 01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:40,480 because it can't open to the left 1852 01:33:40,480 --> 01:33:42,880 because it would hit the counter space. 1853 01:33:42,880 --> 01:33:45,360 Um it will be on wheels so we can move 1854 01:33:45,360 --> 01:33:48,480 it and clean behind it. Um and so for 1855 01:33:48,480 --> 01:33:51,440 delivery um installation and the 1856 01:33:51,440 --> 01:33:54,639 refrigerator it's $17813. 1857 01:33:54,639 --> 01:33:57,600 So I'm requesting $1,800 to order the 1858 01:33:57,600 --> 01:34:01,990 refrigerator and have it delivered. 1859 01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:06,400 » Okay.
