[0:13] Oh, you're a boss. Tony is coming. Come be springs. [0:19] Okay. Well, I guess we need a motion to accept the minutes from Thursday, February 19th. [0:26] I'll make a motion to approve the minutes from February 19th. [0:31] Second? [0:32] Second on favor, say aye. [0:34] All right. [0:35] All right. [0:36] I'm finished business of previous meetings discussion. [0:40] So you weren't here either, Cody. [0:42] Were you? [0:42] You and I were both not here. [0:44] Yeah, I'm finished business previous meeting continuation of work hours and paid lunch policy to support staff well-being and morale [0:56] Okay, so I guess they're so confident. I have a question here. I'm over public [1:02] Over employees. Is there a problem with morale and well-being? [1:15] I was like, I thought it was a little strange myself, but it was like, well, maybe I don't know what happened. [1:21] Well, I lost reading. [1:22] You were, I mean, what? [1:24] So, that was the, that was horny. [1:26] In general, I lost reading too. That's not bad. [1:28] Oh, lots. [1:29] Yeah. [1:29] Well, I think those two could be probably put together. [1:34] But, so, I'm... [1:38] What does this mean, I guess? [1:41] So, well, we decided on it. [1:43] We were just moving up. [1:45] 730 to 430. [1:57] You're saying that he won't go on? [1:58] I didn't want to hurt the traffic, [2:01] and he'd be coming in like, [2:02] yeah, I know he talked about that last month, yeah. [2:05] Even from the month before I said nobody [2:08] in the last month is still between [2:11] that four and five o'clock hour. [2:12] The only person that ever came was Abe at five o'clock [2:16] to pick up his check once. [2:18] And you guys weren't here last meeting, [2:20] but I went and looked up. [2:20] I can't remember how many districts in the state [2:23] of some water, water districts, [2:25] and larger and smaller, and it is not uncommon at all just I mean I guess you guys are changing [2:31] it a little bit, but it is not uncommon at all to close at 4.430, it's not, it's very [2:38] very normal. [2:39] I would actually say it's more common than 5. [2:42] I think you and I had a question of the Friday off how they'd make it up, but now it looks [2:47] this way because it's 7.30 to 4.30, 4 days a week that'll give the extra hour and then [2:52] the next week for so yeah that makes it clear because I thought we were going from [2:56] 8 30 to 4 30 and the numbers didn't jive so yeah that makes sense [3:03] 30 to 4 30 Monday through Thursday and that'll give them the four hours that [3:09] they for the eight hour day gosh yeah we'll still do like our right time [3:16] is that what you guys would like to do is where are you reacting to how I [3:20] reactive last week. [3:23] Well, maybe I'll react to the next one. I think with Clinton, it was [3:29] that one. I mean, try, I think I don't see a problem with it. [3:40] Yeah, I don't think [3:40] it'll be exciting. Well, I was just kind of wondering, you know, during your lunch time, [3:46] did we close during lunch time so you guys get some time off? I mean, you know, I think that's [3:51] not uncommon for a lot of places either, to give you a half an hour in the day and you're [3:55] closed and then you guys, because I think mental wise and you know being able to take that [4:00] half hour and step away and that's good for morale, that's good for morale, that's [4:06] good. [4:07] I mean that's insane but in my head I'm like I don't know what I'm going to take a lunch [4:11] so I don't want that strict schedule of from 11 to 12 or 12 to one. [4:15] Like I feel like once I get you know I'm involved in a project and stuff I'm not walking [4:20] away until I get finished so like for me my lunch has been just when I can take a [4:27] and I can see that you get focused on something on the same way, I want to continue on, I don't want to go, [4:33] oh, it's lunch time, I'm going to forget about this and go eat lunch, so I just, you know, when I [4:39] thought about it, I thought, I think people need a break, you know, during the day, I don't think you [4:44] could just be non-stop working, you know. You can kind of get that sometimes though, right? [4:55] Is that by [4:55] like you know when he's out and about he'll you know stop and grab lunch and then make sure he comes back [4:59] at least by noon so if I ever need to go or want to go I have that option okay and then Tina [5:05] will come in up when again that's still time if I need to go there's there's options for me to leave [5:11] okay and I don't necessarily like to leave very often I bring my lunch I'll snack at my desk [5:17] Yeah. I'm going to, I'm going to try to bench. [5:20] Cheers, love the snacks. [5:22] But, but I think what we want to convey is we don't want you to feel like you have [5:26] to eat your sandwich at your desk or that kind of thing. [5:29] And you, I mean, you need to walk away. [5:31] You want to support your well-being in morale. [5:33] Yeah. [5:34] Thank you. [5:35] I'm going to come back down. [5:36] So if you're, if you're, the hours are set at 30 to 4.30 Monday through Friday, then you [5:42] work a five-day week and then a four-day week, right? [5:44] Right. [5:45] Okay. [5:45] Yeah. [5:46] So real. [5:47] And so on Friday, though, it's set to 3.30. [5:50] So that'll be the eight hours, and then the first four days will account for four hours, [5:54] and then the next week, the four hours, and that'll account for the Friday hour. [5:58] That makes sense. [5:58] So do you take Monday and he takes Friday? [6:01] Is that what I remember? [6:03] So how many hours does that end up being total? [6:05] Is it 40 a week? [6:05] Yeah, it will be 40 a week. [6:07] So I want to express that that's not necessarily what my goal was last month, just so you guys [6:12] know. [6:15] I don't, I want to be here for the hours that we need to be here and also acknowledge the [6:24] amount of time spent outside of the normal hours still working hours. [6:31] I think when we were talking about it last week I was wrapping my head around if we cut [6:35] an hour off every day, five days a week it ends up being quite a big difference but I don't [6:42] know for me first, I don't know that means there isn't like a little ground there for me. [6:47] I don't know how real it's going to be. [6:48] Well, but like one of the reasons you guys proposed this was that nobody's here after [6:52] 4.30 or whatever, or people here at 7.30 in the morning is that, no, okay. [6:58] But the temperatures, what summer temperatures would be pretty awesome. [7:01] Yeah, for him to be here earlier and maybe it's the traffic for you coming here, I don't know. [7:13] Well, as you take a mic, you know, that's not what I'm saying, Friday. [7:17] I'm saying, we're pushing them to work full 80 hours and then also pushing them to be at this meeting. [7:21] I don't have Friday off, but I have extra hours that comes out. [7:25] Tina covers for me. [7:26] I don't disagree at all. [7:28] I'll try to interview her. [7:28] Oh, so you work the Friday and then take the Monday off? [7:31] Oh, so we're open every day. [7:33] Oh, yes. [7:34] As long as one of you is here. [7:36] Okay. [7:36] And I personally like what you've said and this way you still get paid for your lunch basically, right? [7:43] Because we're getting nine hours. We're paying you for your half hour lunch, you know [7:48] And sometimes you could step away and go and do whatever. So you know first I was like well [7:54] Let's just take a half hour off give them a half hour and still get our 80 hours in you know, schedule it that way [7:59] Because I think that's what in my mind that's what I felt like we were paying you guys to do was an 80 hour work [8:05] You know to to wake work at time, you know, so [8:09] Yeah, I think this is perfect. I like it. And it's a person and it's long and team is here [8:14] Both Friday and Monday, right? Is she so there's a couple people in the office of Matt had to leave [8:19] It'll be somebody when you're not here. Okay. Yeah. I don't see a problem with it. He's really good to we make it. We make it all [8:27] Cool. [8:30] Yeah, wow I make a motion that we move on to the next thing [8:36] I don't think you need a motion on that. [8:39] No, I just know. [8:41] I think we're all on the same date. [8:43] I feel like there's a little bit of give and a little bit of take on both sides. [8:49] You guys were going to pay you for your lunch, which I didn't really, you know, first thing. [8:54] And Brock wasn't trying to be a hard case. [8:56] I promise. [8:58] I'm trying to be the nicer case right now. [8:59] Yeah. [9:00] I'm not hard case. [9:01] I'm not hard case. [9:02] Yes, you got to sleep for a lot of months. [9:04] We were about 20 years, we were talking about it. [9:07] And frankly, if I'm around it, we were just a little confused [9:08] on the way the hours were, the way it was. [9:12] No, my point last month was just, like I said, [9:15] if I run into this, this would never happen. [9:17] If I run into something in the grocery store, [9:18] and I got to explain it to them, they're paying their bill here. [9:20] I just have to come forward explaining it to them. [9:22] But I want to balance that with, so the idea is, [9:26] you're getting paid to be here [9:29] and during your lunch you can leave and take a lunch that doesn't stop your [9:34] hours of technically you're hitting 80 including lunch so that makes up for [9:37] the difference in other things. Is that fair to say? Like this meeting because [9:45] what I don't want to do is that you guys are working a full 80 hours and then [9:48] because you're salary you have to be here extra and we like I'm not a fan of we [9:55] going to expect it but it might happen. No, for sure. I think we expect it when it needs to happen. [10:01] That's my point. I'm just saying I'm not a fan of using salary as a way to take advantage of [10:05] somebody to work more than his fare. So you're not paying overtime. Right. Because I think salary was [10:14] invented to be advantageous to employers. It was not invented to be advantageous to employees. [10:19] and most cases. You can take advantage of people. [10:23] I just wanted to clarify that you guys can leave for lunch [10:29] and it's still part of the nine hours. [10:32] Right, yeah. So, I'm good. If you guys are good, I'm good. [10:36] Thank you. [10:37] Yeah. Thank you for putting that together, you know, [10:40] because I hadn't heard that proposal and when you said it, [10:43] I was like, I'm all for that. It sounds good. [10:46] You guys get a little lunch there you get paid you go for half hour whatever can now ask that you know employee relations [10:55] You guys good [11:00] I'm leaving I've done my job [11:03] See you Terry. Thanks for coming today [11:07] All right, so that I can get the meeting going [11:11] Continue on here. I've got a lot of pressure on me [11:17] Yeah, let's get to those, let's get to those bills. [11:19] How about a pressure to bail? [11:21] It's about a $20 bill. [11:22] It's got to be done by $6.30. [11:25] Yeah, Brock, with the pressure. [11:26] I'm going to be done by $604. [11:30] Looking at the minutes, it was $6.11 last month. [11:33] Oh, you guys were embellishing. [11:35] That's good. [11:35] I really wanted $605. [11:37] And we had some discussion going in that time, too. [11:40] It wasn't bill discussions, but it was discussion. [11:44] Anybody got a question on any of the bills? [11:49] Who is this central weaver person that's getting this 49,000? [11:54] What do you mean? [11:56] They're getting 3,500 too. [11:59] If you look down below, I just saw that. [12:02] I think 49,000 was enough so they want 35,000. [12:14] Okay, I guess we need a motion on the bills I'm like a motion to approve the March [12:25] February [12:28] right now we don't print it in March it's it's it we are in March every [12:33] February. February goes. I'll second it. Moving second on, they will say aye. Aye. [12:39] The view of the year to date financials and February balance sheet. [12:45] Anything Jennifer, [12:46] do you want to point out that you think it is important? [12:53] No, not yet. Just that. [12:57] I got your eye on something. Our 88,000 we send off to the beginning of the year for [13:06] on your piece kind of throws our expense and revenue a little backwards so that was like a very [13:12] large program. [13:16] So when you look at your dates and we're like it looks like you've got a lot of this, [13:23] well it keeps going down every month. Yeah we balance out but like upfront it's a hard hit and then it just [13:33] Yeah, okay. Well, thank you. We're taking that hard hit for us. [13:39] How did you get a pain in the throat? [13:41] Yeah, somebody's getting it. [13:52] Stand out to somebody else. [13:57] We don't need emotions. We don't know if I don't think we need emotion about that. [14:02] And the groove is just reviewing it. [14:05] So everybody's alright to move on. We can do that. [14:08] or yeah okay items for board discussion and consideration for approval current [14:16] bids on upcoming projects man I'm going to talk about that [14:22] This is my turn? [14:24] Yeah. [14:25] Give it up. [14:28] This is what we got after the end of the day. [14:32] We did that for the first round. [14:34] And this is it. [14:38] And we in my car, Dobie is the same guy as it is. [14:45] 62-hundred last year was the little bit. [14:51] I mean, he did great. [14:52] He feels good with the numbers. [14:54] We like the numbers, no problem with last time, right? [15:00] There, [15:03] he just didn't keep the job cleaned up real great. He didn't haul off his [15:09] coil. He kept piled it up as he went and then had trucks, [15:18] you know, that was kind of, [15:21] and he was gone for a few days on another job, you know, he had other jobs, but he got [15:27] done, he did pipe. [15:31] So did some of the residents complained? We didn't, we didn't get much [15:35] complaints over there about anything, really? The church was the big one when they... [16:00] Well, they give us, we live in the flat over us. [16:05] But the residents are a little different out there than they are down there. [16:09] I could have taken this personally for a little bit. [16:12] Just from what I have met with the resident function. [16:16] So, I don't know, I'm worried about that part. [16:19] Well, can you talk to him about that? [16:20] The world is fine about it. I don't know if he went and looked at the job. He just [16:26] did it on Google Earth, you know. The other contractors who went and looked [16:32] out was concerned about space and stuff and he didn't seem to be. He didn't talk [16:39] to him about it too. Yeah. Yeah. That's kind of what I was looking at. Yeah. So because I think you can say we're [16:45] going to give you the fit, but this is what's got to happen, you know, what's different, you know. [16:50] So, yeah, looking good, okay, that price, to do a week for that, have a size of clean [16:57] up, there were, he did a good job and no problems. Yeah, yeah, he did. He leads the lowest, [17:05] like, 20 grand and 80,000 for the T.C. construction. Yeah, it was about the same money as he [17:13] it was another hundred feet. [17:21] This was a hundred feet more than the last one. [17:23] Oh, 6200 was like a thousand. [17:25] Oh, some change. [17:28] This is only 900. [17:29] Oh, some change. [17:31] So, it went up a little bit. [17:33] Yeah, I think it was like 185 last year. [17:36] Well, for that one. [17:37] I got diesel today and probably should get 10,000. [17:42] That's so joking. [17:46] Boy. [17:47] Well, this is our little warden to deal with the. [17:51] I'm getting it. [17:53] I'm getting it. [17:53] Probably need a motion then. [17:55] I make a motion that we award bid to the Ivy Construction for 186,490 dollars and 15 cents [18:04] for the work being done on the new waterline loop MP314. How's that? [18:14] They're all. They're all right. [18:18] So as we look secondly for the discussion, I just have one question, Matt. Do you [18:22] foresee a lot of extra charges here? No. You feel like this is pretty accurate? I know sometimes I [18:30] I'm like, oh, that's what it's going to cost us. [18:32] And you find out, oh, the asphalt's too thick there. [18:36] And the debt of the asphalt. [18:38] He put a lot in there. [18:41] Drive with at the very bottom at 80, but 10,000. [18:47] But he's fine along. [18:59] Must be just for concrete. [19:01] But he was fine along. [19:03] It [19:12] hasn't the leaks we've done. [19:14] And that's [19:44] what happened on the last few minutes. [19:45] I'm going to get new. [19:45] didn't win plus the asphalt was too thick or something right [19:54] well any further [19:55] discussion I'll say did you okay that well we we haven't a yeah so it's [20:03] been moving seconds so all in favor say aye okay so the other project that I [20:09] wanted to do so [21:17] the same numbers as like this number be it the same numbers you [21:20] Because it's a price. [21:21] It would be my gun price is not. [21:25] Yeah, so is there a reason why we don't wait for this other guy to finish this one and let me do the next one too? [21:32] Or I think with the people that my government have, it's gonna take a few more people to do that one. [21:40] It's too big for this doby. [21:42] Yeah, okay. [21:44] I think I feel more comfortable with my government doing that one up there and kind [21:51] of lose some. [21:52] Well, [22:05] that's what we have you doing what you're doing. You can tell us what you feel on. So [22:10] Blaine understands it, you know, better than I do. If we get something done, maybe email [22:27] So you'll still get the bids. What do we have to have three bids? No, we can use we can use his [22:33] Same this you want to use these same numbers. It's under the two hundred nine thousand for the state [22:40] So [22:46] it should be [23:04] If you do that then you don't have to go through the whole bit process. [23:07] Yeah, I don't have to. [23:08] But if it's under 209, I don't have to send it to 40 people there. [23:15] What did they get that? [23:16] I don't know. [23:17] That's just what they came up with. [23:18] The state comes up with. [23:20] The state comes up with. [23:21] That's the requirement. [23:22] Yeah, and it changes. [23:24] It's coming up. [23:25] Yeah. [23:26] We live in every year. [23:27] We never say another right group and because we just did all this stuff, we have comparable [23:31] numbers at least for us to be able to say we know where they're at right under the groups [23:34] anyway it's for a similar project. [23:38] So you'll just send us something and then we just [23:40] vote. [23:45] Yeah, so everybody can write it all on e-mails so we can see it I guess. [23:48] Yeah, everybody. How are we deciding when and where to do these? We've had a bunch of [23:54] leaks on that osmum and the Sharon one we got caught a few leaks since I've been here [24:02] And it's kind of back because it washes, it'll fill up them few yards. [24:10] Pretty good. [24:11] Are they older pipes? [24:12] Have they been for ever? [24:13] Yeah. [24:19] Okay, so you'll let us know. [24:21] Good. [24:23] All right. [24:27] Well, landscaping, office park strip. [24:32] Oh, I'd like to owe [24:44] me. [24:44] Is he going somewhere? [24:46] No, he got some stuff caught on his face and he just didn't come work this week. [24:50] Do [24:58] some plant. What are you going to do? [25:07] No plants or no water needed or good [25:10] I think that sounds reasonable to me [25:13] Anybody? Okay, so I guess we need a [25:18] Emotion on that then [25:20] How much three thousand three thousand three thousand? Just been three thousand on the landscaping of the park's group [25:26] Yeah, I'll make a motion that you're approved up to three thousand dollars to spend on landscaping of the office partial [25:32] second move second all in favor say hi hi what a quality report Matt we're [25:38] keeping the screws to you here [25:42] on me here [25:44] the street but it's still a little bit more on [25:54] February getting it on off right now I think. [26:00] How much different it isn't in [26:03] last year's runoff. Last year was about 70-80. [26:17] In March of a 70 day. Yeah, I'm my name. [26:22] This [26:25] year, so I don't think it'll break. I don't think it'll break 90. [26:33] So right now it's [26:34] It looks similar to last year, right? [26:36] Yeah, it looks similar. [26:38] That's pretty good with the year we had. [26:41] Probably up to probably probably the last one. [26:44] The way it's looking probably after another one. [26:48] Did we were based on say anything and you heard? [26:51] Yeah, they're not cutting us. [26:54] We don't have to as of now, they're not cutting us. [26:58] Yeah, I just heard that the government didn't declare [27:01] there was going to be drought conditions so yeah didn't really really but he's not [27:08] oh he's not going to not claim and drought condition that's what they said today [27:12] so is there a kind of a surprise to hear about their kind of irrigation all irrigation [27:38] 15th of May yeah [27:42] so the lawns won't have to worry about your lawns or lawns are going to be [27:45] I'm just a little bit more serious. [27:48] Maybe we'll get some April showers. [27:52] Hopefully we'll get some April showers. [27:54] I hope we get some April showers. [27:54] I hope the turtle might get us some. [27:56] We'll put it in the water like that. [28:00] No, it actually got a lot of light. [28:03] But not red, I mean, no drought rate as of, yeah. [28:08] Interesting. [28:11] So was it on KSL that we saw or just in general? [28:15] It was KSL and it was down on the radio, just like a through here to see how long it was. [28:20] It hasn't hit the... [28:22] No, I just know that the governors didn't declare a drought, but I'm curious to go ahead. [28:29] But we better all try and win this one. [28:33] Yeah, for sure. [28:34] Yeah, the reservoirs were pretty high everyone that I'd drive by. [28:37] It seemed like they're pretty good shape. [28:40] Well, yeah, everything up that we were racing, [28:42] into the Weaver River, and into like, I think there's one at 60% [28:48] that's like 54, 50. [28:51] That's it, by Pineviews 50-something. [28:54] Pineviews, no, not so different, right? [28:56] Oh, I think Pineviews 60s, seven, right? [29:02] Will or will or will or [29:14] will or... [29:15] Anything else on water? [29:24] With relations? [29:26] Not that. [29:27] Not that. [29:33] So employee HR discussion, current office policy, and potential updates, they kind of take [29:39] care of that with the other thing we already talked about, that was okay. [29:45] There was talk about Stacey eventually doing updates on our policy, like it's not been [29:52] done for a while. [29:52] I think that we can now see if you're talking to that was just something that they were going to do in your next meeting. [30:00] So you'll just keep us. Yeah, whatever that is. Yes, she would start working on it. Okay, great. Close meeting, [30:15] next meeting, for April 16th. [30:18] So if anybody can get about April 16th, they have to attack there. Well, good. I hate to tell Brock this, but I finished everything. [30:28] For sure. We're sure about some numbers are going to be hard to beat. [30:34] I know. Well, I'm proud of you, bro. [30:36] Thank you. Good job. [30:39] I was dragging out one minute longer than you. [30:42] I can tell you that. [30:43] You go on a 630 every time. [30:46] Yeah. Anything else for me guys?

[31:01] No, you're good. [31:03] Hey, I was waiting for my direct deposit, and I got a chance. [31:07] What's the deal? [31:08] She took it off with me. [31:11] This last game. [31:13] I just missed it. [31:14] Did you get both? [31:16] I usually like to wait until the last game. [31:18] And now here is Paul. [31:19] I'm telling you the cash is so. [31:22] Why is Heidi? [31:23] And then I took the Thanksgiving and you crashed it and I was like, [31:26] didn't you? [31:27] That was a funny thing. [31:29] I was like, oh, I got that boardbe coming up. [31:31] I got a cash for you. [31:33] Well, thank you for being here. [31:35] We go to the check's written for sign.

[31:46] We walked through it once and we're going to walk through it at the end or for our [31:50] My first run at it on April 1st, so if you do want direct deposit, make sure I have your bank information.
