[0:36] to the republic for it stands. One nation under God, indivisible with

[0:42] liberty and justice for all.

[0:48] very interesting period of fourth July, the 250

[0:52] celebration and the World Cup. I'm sure some of you all seen the news and watch

[0:57] them. I have never really watched the world for a good time and I'm like

[1:02] amazed at the people and they're fun. They're having a good time. They're

[1:08] behaving. I was also interested in seeing all the visitors from the other

[1:13] countries commenting on how they're enjoying our country and the food rocky

[1:23] barbecue and taxes. I mean just goes on and on. So I hope you guys had a great

[1:27] enjoy and thanks for showing that.

[1:32] Um, we'll get started with the report, but first we're going to review the

[1:36] minutes um from June 10th. Look at that.

[1:58] » Second. Okay. All in favor? I >> Okay, motion pass.

[2:05] » So, we will uh kind of change the schedule around a

[2:10] little bit if we have they produce shortly, but we'll go ahead and start

[2:15] talking.

[2:20] I don't have a lot of technology. I do know that I think Daniel, are you going

[2:23] to talk about the

[2:29] show that a little bit later? We've had some improvements with that and looks

[2:32] like things are going well. We are looking for another supplier to help

[2:38] upgrade this room. We have a recording that we do

[2:43] and the sound through the microphone so we can take stage now that we can get

[2:47] some free quality of the meeting to where the

[2:51] recording sounds great and people can interact and have a good experience with

[2:58] our meeting. So we're working on that. That will probably be the last

[3:01] technology thing. So, I'm going to

[3:07] start off with some of Dave's report, but I have a skip. Let's see.

[3:15] So, Ron, would you like to share anything with

[3:19] » Well, we're working on get some tree well trees removed from some of the

[3:25] parks right now. And uh I tried to get a hold of Nelson to to some new bush out

[3:34] here in front so we had more damage by the dam trees wind. And also I'm trying

[3:40] to get a bid right now. I change that garden up there. Get rid of that nasty

[3:45] looking tried to put some rock or rock wall or something naturally in there.

[3:51] And um the training part is got to hit pretty hard

[3:58] from wind and ice but trying to get it fixed up.

[4:06] And let's see

[4:10] that's about it on the tree. I got two plants I'm going to try to done. I cut

[4:15] some bushes out here. your wife did for in punch he did that you giant that they

[4:20] are still alive get water to them >> no trying to get put another sprinkler

[4:25] » head

[4:42] on the in the front here gardening for the new side.

[4:48] Um when I put up 5 in the morning um the holidays I notic the sprinkers along the

[4:54] sidewalk they're still on and they're spraying and spraying on the monument

[4:58] sign and I didn't know if that's something you could step off so it's not

[5:02] spraying the mon so it doesn't discolor that block you know sometimes discolor

[5:08] right now there's any plant there be rearranged

[5:13] » yeah coming in doing that

[5:17] something prevent

[5:39] right. >> Yeah. Yeah. right in front of us in my

[6:02] hand that extra spreadsheet I do.

[6:07] Um basically if we look at our um financials we're looking pretty good.

[6:18] Um if you look at budget versus actual general fund and our capital fund are

[6:25] down $2,000 uh compared to the budget. Um but this is fine because we just

[6:31] entered our highest portion of income for sales tax and whatever. um for that

[6:36] phase. So I'm not concerned about the a little bit that it's down. Um

[6:42] the last two months our sales tax income, if you look at the new sheet

[6:46] that I handed out, that spreadsheet, the last two months, our sales tax income

[6:51] has been the highest since I started putting track of it. And um the June

[7:00] figure of money that will be costed in July was 30 over $33,000.

[7:07] So it was really really good. $33,600. So our total income is above budget by

[7:14] $8,233 on the right side of our budget for

[7:19] action. When you look at the income, the income is down all three categories

[7:27] and the overall expenditures are down by $42,000

[7:31] per which gives us a net income $50,97

[7:37] compared to budget. So we're doing very very well there. We'll count that. If we

[7:44] look at our statement of finance where it compares last year's numbers to this

[7:48] year's numbers um income is down the general fund but part of that is due to

[7:55] building permits because of the number we have the year before and our general

[8:00] comes down but that's only due primarily to when our

[8:07] quarterly middle

[8:12] income is up in the um street and capital um uh fund and sales taxes up

[8:20] from the previous year by $20,000. So that's a good number. So we ended it

[8:26] up with an overall income um across the board of 33 more than it was last year.

[8:35] When we look at expenditures, uh, our expend expenses are up in the

[8:40] general and in street, but are down in the capital. And that's because last

[8:45] year we probably started the pavilion at this fourth time of the year. So we had

[8:50] expenses on that this year. Um, so our total net income, let's see,

[8:58] or our expenses are down by $21,000 compared to the year before. So our

[9:03] overall net income 24,631.92.

[9:08] So I'm real pleased. It should be impressive the next two or three month.

[9:14] Okay. Anybody any questions for

[9:23] that then we'll come back to Adam?

[9:31] » Yeah. So I talked to the POA the POA on the development of the DNR feedback the

[9:38] connection

[9:41] um they're very positive that they can get it done

[9:46] um so that save a lot of people they don't have to remain broke um and

[9:54] there so there's that I did talk to the water district about the increase of the

[10:01] permit um of trying to get the next water. Um

[10:07] they stated that they can I have everybody have a coffee so they can take

[10:11] a look at it. Um, but the increases work a lot and I told them, okay, there's a

[10:17] lot of you should be able to do at least

[10:21] decrease a little bit because it's decreasing the building around here and

[10:27] a lot of people are losing money, especially the road district because

[10:31] that's where their money comes from, you know. So, I did schedule a meeting for

[10:37] next week to see if we can figure out something, but he did say that he sent

[10:42] the letter out to the loters that are out there. Um, and he said that when he

[10:49] called around the surrounding area is pretty much

[10:53] the same and that's why he increased it because they were the lowest around. So,

[11:00] I'm going to have, like I said, I'm going to have a meeting with them to see

[11:02] what they can do. Maybe I'll do my best um to do that. So, but hey, I guess

[11:10] we're cautioning to figure out what we can do. Um but that's all on the water

[11:15] on the water side. Um I don't know if you want me to talk

[11:19] about the other part.

[11:26] » We haven't finished. Okay. Um, other than that,

[11:34] um, I talked to a few also. I guess the street damage the whole side the gate

[11:41] for all the tree fell on it. It's still open, but there's a lot of damage there.

[11:47] Um, so be careful if you know anybody going.

[11:51] Um, so that's pretty much with the emergency management, the damages. I

[11:58] know there's an email that came out about

[12:01] where the tankers debris, who's responsible. I talked to Kevin this

[12:05] morning about it. He did say that there is a place uh north building or

[12:13] um that you still are responsible to bring over there. There's no pick up um

[12:20] unless it's on the road to do that. So, um,

[12:33] but all in all, um, everything looks good. Um, I think we're going to meet up

[12:38] with her about it

[12:42] management, the director,

[12:46] get better familiar with that.

[12:51] still far away. Anyway, so that's that's where I'm

[12:58] tell you finish

[13:03] that's what he mere bit

[13:11] me

[13:18] but there is some big So if you're building

[13:33] it up 12,000 a huge huge

[13:42] I don't like I said like he was just saying hey the surrounding areas are

[13:48] competitive with it and I said is it you know

[13:53] I don't want to know. But I mean, if they're trying to get to the point of

[13:58] whatever I mean, sometimes you kind of throw this up, you know, kind of

[14:03] » get it easier.

[14:08] » Well, I know here one day. I don't think he walked in

[14:14] here, you know, kind of put here. What does it say?

[14:23] So what is the one thing that you get to build?

[14:27] » He said it was the utility connection >> and the only thing is the fee for

[14:36] good thing because you got to put out $40,000

[14:40] before you put a lot of builders don't have that that

[14:45] money extra to do it. So I don't have a lot of

[14:55] anybody.

[14:59] » Okay.

[15:06] » Okay. Well, first and foremost, I totally apologize. I thought

[15:13] like next week I really You know, you know me.

[15:26] I never came back. Here I am. Seriously,

[15:32] I kind of felt like weird.

[15:38] And so anyway, my bad. I'd like to apologize

[15:45] and it's not everybody's position

[15:50] although I appreciate being taken care of.

[15:55] » Yeah. Yeah. Anybody call whatever. >> Oh, I feel so embarrassed. Anyway,

[16:02] what's my job? What am I supposed to do here? Um what let's go into uh I

[16:10] his business and everything else the building.

[16:18] Thank you. Um permit revenue for 2025 is $4,955

[16:28] and for 2026 $5,300. So it is a plus of $345.

[16:35] Uh year to pay for 2025 was $55,000 and 2026 is 27,800 and of course that is

[16:45] still yet left over from the triplex there at the haven. um a number of

[16:54] permits here today in 55 of 60 and this year it's 43 and it just kind of

[17:00] continues down that that but you know our permits are not nearly as uh much as

[17:08] they were in years past as you know as we just kind of heard the

[17:13] reason for that what's what's coming down what's going to come um okay let's

[17:20] go and I don't have anything for the fire department. I don't have I don't

[17:23] know about street lights or anything else, but uh we'll move into uh the

[17:28] report uh from our sheriff's department, please. Uh in the month of June, we had

[40:42] » Well there's been a lot more than that where we're at. What have you done so

[40:46] far? Oh, we had to build the 6 sidewalk with the finish on the concrete trash

[40:51] enclosures on the concrete the sidewalk to each facility that's in the ground

[40:57] equipment and set that accessible.

[41:02] Um, we got all the play guys in ready to go. It's been a long month

[41:10] and we had Ron came out. came out and helped me. We struggled one day and res

[41:19] came over

[41:22] and we had strapped off. So

[41:29] » we had to play with no instructions.

[41:37] All it said was face in put your slide on and go from there. So we realized the

[41:43] slide was, you know, almost three foot high ground

[41:48] with a person

[41:57] came back out and

[42:02] he did.

[42:06] Thanks for helping.

[42:10] Are we over there also? But we'll deal with that later.

[42:17] » Okay, we'll get close. Thanks

[42:21] for doing all that. I know temperature a lot of hard work. Okay, I

[42:28] know we've been talking about side or we have

[42:31] lately about a particular business around the village

[42:40] and I know we asked our city attorney for looking at that. I

[42:45] know we talked a bit. I know you've done some work and I hope you have an update

[42:49] you want to share with

[42:54] me. I'm I'm doing research on um so it's my

[43:02] understanding that subcommittee is comprised

[43:22] ready to help whatever extent he

[43:34] Whatever you like the county UTV

[43:45] to suggest that there relationship there

[43:51] ordinance she recently approved and adopted. So, we're just trying to

[43:58] email

[44:06] as water ticket.

[44:20] Make sure

[44:25] Just so you know better

[44:30] court is going well major issues there for those you don't know I become the

[44:36] city council prosecute for city

[44:40] um I'm not taking away from my duties here just since we're chatting a little

[44:46] chat here the average residential fee nationwide the water is.5% %

[44:52] construction cost according to the sale averages here in village current sale

[44:58] averages median prices 357 450 to 375 that's inclusive of condos currently

[45:04] it's $12,000 you're at 3.2% 2% which is three or four times the national

[45:10] average. The average medium home sale here

[45:14] apparently for detached homes the four seasons is 500 12,500

[45:18] $12,000% that just operational resation

[45:25] the highest in the nation if you want to hear about that water agency zone 7 cost

[45:30] $111,700 there valley ranchos 27,800

[45:38] Jersey city and jersey is 4516 1846

[45:45] 10 a lot more locally here the averages are village on

[45:51] according to the web was it 389300600

[46:05] primarily private child so I

[46:22] a lot

[46:26] of very interesting information.

[46:37] » I know the first season

[46:54] Well, I think that's better.

[47:03] I think we looked at that and saw that

[47:08] maybe I understand

[47:18] the court whatever versus

[47:35] not

[47:39] not it very small

[47:45] that it did the only

[47:51] so we may want to talk about that as well

[47:54] because they should know that we have so we can

[47:59] really attorney taking a role in that a lot

[48:02] more than a le or whatever they will do That right there.

[48:22] She's been told that she'll

[48:30] better that. She's

[48:39] I'm above.

[49:02] start.

[49:05] Okay. I believe our annual complete. We had a session

[49:12] couple weeks ago to review that

[49:17] like all our other audits have

[49:22] on that. We decided to move forward with approval. tonight

[49:28] to approve that

[49:33] resolution. Do we have to raise

[49:49] » Okay. Uh but we should approve this resolution.

[49:56] All right. Resolution number 2607 resolution board

[50:04] on the financial statements for fiscal year beginning December 31st 202

[50:12] recommendation. With that, we'll ask for a motion to

[50:17] approve resolution number 2607. Motion to approve 2607.

[50:26] I'll take a question. Not all in favor.

[50:34] » Next, I have broken drain.

[50:40] We have some of those for lid that are pathway over when they build

[50:48] parkway. It was like a concrete trail. Somebody hit one. Looks like they drove

[50:55] over front of it. I picked the concrete out

[50:58] of the street and put it over to the drain. Um, and then we have one hit part

[51:04] on this side of Cherokee on west side and on each side. So I don't know if

[51:09] when we do the patch rate if we're able to address those to fix those um how we

[51:16] pick those because they're just four time

[51:27] because

[51:30] kind of a no >> yeah nobody's

[51:37] not a that the road district wants to take care of or necessarily the county

[51:41] wants to take care of it kind of falls in into a very black hole. But man, when

[51:48] you see all of these people, especially on these weekends that we just went

[51:52] through that use the pathways and and everything

[51:58] it's it's it's a big thing to try to correct those kind of falls back falls

[52:06] back on somebody. I don't know who who wants to take the take the fall, but you

[52:10] know, those things need to be repaired. >> It's not the road districts.

[52:19] » Well, you have to pull that whole entire thing off and then you're

[52:26] concrete. Um talked about putting the new culver in from pathway house from

[52:32] Cherokee to the point pool and he want to lower those culberts to help with the

[52:39] transition out. So I don't know if he wants to lower these and make the

[52:44] pathway flat so there's not a home at that time. So I haven't talked to Kevin

[52:49] about it. Kevin's been busy with >> damage and summer.

[52:53] » But the fact comes into if it's going to be over, you know, we don't know what

[52:57] the cost is, but if the cost is over a $10,000 thing with an estimation of then

[53:03] it needs to bid and um again it's a tough it's a tough spot.

[53:10] Somebody's got to put it together. So you know kind of I don't necessarily

[53:15] know that the buck falls here. I don't know where else it's going to fall. Can

[53:20] county doesn't want horses road district doesn't want it and I get it and there's

[53:25] kind of a triplex thing going on right here and

[53:30] » well I I also there's a liability >> there's a liability so Mr. council or

[53:39] I don't really want to bring you into this party but again you can you can say

[53:44] what what what you can say >> so full disclosure I'm also

[53:52] I will tell you all your roads even those that are in

[53:56] your jurisdiction so back

[54:03] those roads are essentially the counties statute

[54:10] budget provided. Sometimes there's unexpected items like that that come up.

[54:16] Uh so probably what should do is write a very gent

[54:27] and suggest that there's a district that's in the special district right

[54:32] away and uh that's adjacent to and a base and see if either of them would be

[54:38] willing to assist in that project. We want to try to stay away as possible as

[54:43] much as possible because the cooperative effort right now steel track seal

[54:50] trails and do the guard rails like that. you're essentially

[55:05] charge for the use of your parks and things like that. you're supposed to be

[55:13] instead but we don't want to meet other people's houses

[55:26] and very generous

[55:31] but you just got to be more careful about

[55:35] so usually should be green or some type

[55:49] But that would be my suggestion.

[56:00] See what happens. Sorry.

[56:10] Those

[56:17] things are called

[56:21] water situation down

[56:27] the tra

[56:32] is just when that was thrown together years ago for whatever reason

[56:38] it just

[56:48] So that's

[56:53] a letter at this point.

[57:00] » It might be okay.

[57:04] I think

[57:08] we have a good relationship

[57:18] at 8:00.

[57:30] » Okay, that's good. Um, do you have a picture of that?

[57:36] Uh

[57:40] here

[57:50] probably

[57:54] that hit the sign.

[58:15] Okay. Any more on that subject?

[58:29] at point. Yes, I talked to HH on it and I was

[58:36] trying to call if we did get anything. Same time we had up there sweet watching

[58:43] red. So Pegg and I, my wife and I over and work on the H point garden area.

[58:50] Nobody stopped in the direction there like

[58:55] and the other day she was coming home. She was coming off

[58:59] his cage point stop sign there. She said across the park.

[59:06] But I think the signs are $700 each and

[59:14] the last three that was put up in the around here by Mike Riley put up

[59:22] and I would like to see one coming on point not so much but just right there

[59:29] on creek

[59:33] right

[59:42] what we do, how we should go about it.

[59:57] » Power. So you're talking about where K's point

[1:00:02] comes up to Creek right there.

[1:00:08] » They're not stopping. But when you're coming off from

[1:00:11] Creek on K point, you're going to go across that traffic. So they're not

[1:00:15] stopping at all.

[1:00:19] » And I there.

[1:00:26] So your suggestion is to put the stop sign on the case point.

[1:00:32] » No, I would suggest put it on his kind of this way.

[1:00:38] Okay, >> that's where I'm think

[1:01:00] had done that recognizable thing that he had done that one. Where did where did

[1:01:04] that go? So there >> I think they put on this week did that

[1:01:09] because there was some big accident.

[1:01:15] » Okay. and he was so dangerous

[1:01:21] that he said while the area there's any maint

[1:01:39] I knew it wasn't a village thing but I thought it was a road district thing but

[1:01:43] it was a road district Most most of your sides are

[1:02:08] science.

[1:02:13] Friday that I guess I mean that's bad

[1:02:17] intersection and we intersection

[1:02:23] got hit. >> I know usually once a year

[1:02:33] once every two months then

[1:02:41] how much 1700. >> Well, they told me $1,700

[1:03:05] that information. Okay. Whatever. Make a motion.

[1:03:10] Do that.

[1:03:15] So good authority. It's not a guarantee.

[1:03:20] I would again try to letter

[1:03:29] to do it. Sensitivities the people in that area

[1:03:33] flash. So generally I'm not saying

[1:03:39] this but generally

[1:03:47] they actually

[1:04:03] and I understand what what you are saying about that

[1:04:08] correct where you're talking about houses

[1:04:13] but I I appreciate your thought process on that I would

[1:04:19] think on the right side

[1:04:23] » I think that is >> before you get to that curve is there

[1:04:28] driveway or something >> it says on traffic does not stop So that

[1:04:35] suggestion again your suggestion would be that we know the portion district

[1:04:44] is there something more we can do to this intersection

[1:04:48] coming up at 8:00

[1:04:57] next meeting or you want to make

[1:05:03] Okay.

[1:05:06] I would suggest, you know, you know, as long as you are there and it's not like

[1:05:12] you don't have anything else to do, but you're going to be there possibly if

[1:05:16] that, you know, if you're going to be there, I think it'd be a great time to

[1:05:19] bring that up again. Why wait? >> Um,

[1:05:22] » but they say yes, >> here's the other consideration.

[1:05:26] establish.

[1:05:34] So they got comfortable with the installing it.

[1:05:51] I would just

[1:06:01] say I'll do this.

[1:06:06] I would be I would be again this this these types of intersections are going

[1:06:11] to become more and more of a deal out here in

[1:06:16] » this inevitable and so yeah I think it's just kind of a throw it out there Tony

[1:06:22] and thing that

[1:06:28] you're there at the same time I think they

[1:06:31] road district it's been super great on you know

[1:06:35] No, I'm listening to us and we listen to them. If I think

[1:06:40] that they're okay

[1:06:45] if we say right here.

[1:07:05] And I would second that. Yeah. Of course you been road district

[1:07:10] all this back and forth. I mean exactly.

[1:07:17] Yeah. You know something between now and the next meeting.

[1:07:27] » Okay. So, we have a motion to make a second to send the money for $17.

[1:07:37] » All in favor?

[1:07:42] » Any other discussion? Anything else you want to add?

[1:07:46] » No. What I heard heard

[1:07:58] If you want to be able

[1:08:22] to read 1750 Awesome.

[1:08:30] » Thank

[1:08:38] you.

[1:08:47] » Okay. >> Well, you're usually on TV quite

[1:08:51] frankly. you know, but it's nice that you're

[1:08:54] here. I really enjoy

[1:09:01] » moving on. >> The cameras on the pavilion are done. We

[1:09:08] added a better view on the back there that shows the park also on the bathroom

[1:09:15] and the sheriff sign too. I will get documentation together

[1:09:23] the guys that are around but all that is set and done and

[1:09:34] so hopefully we can find somebody to do this if

[1:09:40] um they look good the cameras look good the books look good um we did get a new

[1:09:45] hard drive put in the recording longer and that was already put in. Oh, they

[1:09:53] put a rack in there not away anymore. So, it looks good. Unfortunately, there

[1:09:59] was a damage to our room. Um, but not necessarily their fault. They went

[1:10:05] across the traffic and they moved.

[1:10:19] people.

[1:10:23] » She enjoyed it. >> One day,

[1:10:32] » thank you. >> Um, additional inspector applications,

[1:10:37] we have been receiving them. I have some that are um potential, some that are

[1:10:43] questions, some are no. And so we need to figure out who is going to be person

[1:10:51] and

[1:10:57] » so you said you did have some we have several we have several that are not

[1:11:05] supposed to be qualified. So we thank you for your interest in the

[1:11:10] community but >> well you know they they may become

[1:11:15] qualified when we interviewed for you it was like

[1:11:22] we got the deal

[1:11:34] but you that would they would be willing to work

[1:11:38] for us if they recover location. So then we have some that are local that are in

[1:11:47] the same working field as we are currently. Um, so I have your files. I

[1:11:53] just didn't know which

[1:12:02] » I knew where I could feel.

[1:12:09] » I'd be happy to be on that. really that availability

[1:12:17] » I I availability doesn't usually work for me because I don't mess

[1:12:24] there you know

[1:12:31] » do we need to have more than one or just

[1:12:37] » you think that might be qualified

[1:12:50] We have Valentine's College. We did have a guest.

[1:13:04] » I feel like I'm preaching. Right. >> My name is Don Barrett and I'm running

[1:13:09] for commission.

[1:13:12] My resume started in the late early 70s. There's a picture

[1:13:18] of General

[1:13:23] Park and about three or four years later this

[1:13:28] fix myself built

[1:13:34] in Rber over 40 years and the city is putting a

[1:13:39] community center in. It's difficult to talk about. I miss the

[1:13:44] people. But right now, I'm on the

[1:13:48] on the school board at Max Creek and also co-chair of the Hen County Board.

[1:13:56] We deal with millions of dollars with our budget. I feel very qualified that

[1:14:01] the chief financial officer in First Class County is

[1:14:05] commissioner and I feel like I can step in and do the job from day one.

[1:14:11] That's my very long. You're not running for

[1:14:15] office.

[1:14:24] I really appreciate you. Watch you guys. Some of the stuff I've

[1:14:30] been around watching us

[1:14:34] are kind of a challenge without yelling. I appreciate it.

[1:14:44] Thank you so much. >> Just remember as you go forward this

[1:14:50] prizes.

[1:14:55] » Well, I was warned I got you guys

[1:15:02] and deer

[1:15:06] road.

[1:15:16] James and I worked on the contamination since he was teenager and

[1:15:23] we've done a lot in North but we're still we

[1:15:32] got back out of so I'm the chairman of that board also

[1:15:39] I see Thanks for

[1:15:48] on that property there by the campground

[1:15:59] there. I don't know that he has done anything else. I think he's he's

[1:16:03] established business there.

[1:16:17] Jimmy

[1:16:25] got

[1:16:29] gone away from the food truck and stuff stored there and you

[1:16:34] park there. I didn't know anything

[1:16:39] » heard feedback and said that he was going to

[1:16:43] make that property back.

[1:16:53] » I don't either. Okay.

[1:17:01] I know that whole property right there is really really kind of strange a bit

[1:17:05] because of the right way that corner is

[1:17:11] I don't want the right way of that that piece of property there you know it's

[1:17:15] huge. So, I'm not sort of sure where where he's parked through and all that

[1:17:19] whatever, but I'm guessing these >> Well, I was kind of curious for some

[1:17:24] people I know that about food trucks that are in here. They were asking

[1:17:33] » the last time I put that on the back burner because

[1:17:38] trying to get trucks out um at the time he was doing they were already booked

[1:17:44] out for up to a year. getting them out here was a bit of a challenge.

[1:17:49] » And so he was kind of putting that on the back burner before he made any

[1:17:52] changes >> to the properties to accommodate them

[1:17:55] because he couldn't >> justif

[1:18:07] inquire about if if he would be allowed to do some staging tastefully and I

[1:18:14] don't know that that went anywhere. He never I told him he should come talk to

[1:18:18] you guys and he had them. No, I don't know.

[1:18:22] » I had a couple people come to me and ask

[1:18:38] me

[1:18:47] like

[1:18:51] Yeah. agree on that. Another thing I want to

[1:18:55] say is I set up scheduled a town hall, two town halls out here at the fores

[1:19:02] community center for the upcoming county election for all of the different

[1:19:08] positions of people and I have those first town hall meeting Thursday July

[1:19:14] the 16th from 5:30 to 8:00 in the evening and it's going to be covering

[1:19:20] the first commission and their six candidates the reporter E will be there.

[1:19:26] Um, basically what this is going to be, I'm going to um have a candidate

[1:19:31] candidate introduce themselves and say what their mission is for running for

[1:19:35] office. So, it's just kind of like here I am,

[1:19:39] I'm running this, why I'm running. I know the main that kind of stuff. I just

[1:19:44] want information out. Uh the other one is going to be Thursday the following

[1:19:49] Thursday July the 21st 3rd same time 5:30 to 8. Uh it's going to be for the

[1:19:54] auditor which there's three of them. County collector two of them and county

[1:19:58] clerk two of them. So um actually I don't remember I forgot to

[1:20:09] but I'm going to give this uh to the send out one of those

[1:20:16] email whatever. But if you guys know anybody for anybody

[1:20:30] else

[1:20:37] pretty much sounds like all of them um there was one that I know for sure

[1:20:44] came I don't remember But she said she had another

[1:20:51] on that day. But pretty much everyone else sounds like they are. I'm gonna be

[1:20:54] send

[1:21:24] Oh, okay.

[1:21:31] » Um, oh, yeah. So, Paul sent an email um to me and told me that um he is

[1:21:40] resigning due to uh his family personal that he has to deal with and so he's

[1:21:47] resigning. So therefore, that position stay open. I am respons

[1:22:16] um so I don't know of anybody on pan if any of you guys think of anybody who may

[1:22:23] like that. Pretty much the position is one that um

[1:22:28] is know what the village has

[1:22:35] to go over all that stuff. Um to do that and I know Paul is new.

[1:22:46] Um, so anyway, if you guys know anybody, um, Adam and I will meet go over it and

[1:22:51] then Adam and I will also meet with the county emergency.

[1:22:57] It was very prepared to have him come out

[1:23:02] to see what the village has and also environment. It's very big. Um

[1:23:08] the uh is having community kind of learn how to kind of how to take care of

[1:23:13] itself like it sounds like our community out there has during the last storm

[1:23:16] people jumping out was great to hear. I was very happy to hear that. Um, and so

[1:23:23] I think he'll be interested in

[1:23:32] » and then we may after talking to him Chris then check

[1:23:38] and see if we need to make that whole thing out there.

[1:23:50] We'll see if there's any special things that
