Call the meeting to order.

00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:00,720
» I will approve that.
>> Thanks, Garnet. All those in favor?

3
00:09:58,959 --> 00:10:07,120
Opposed?
Carried. Okay. We have um some additions

4
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:12,160
to the agenda. We have to add a closed
um session. So 1.0 Z will be a tax

5
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:17,920
agreement
and some negotiations. So, need approval

6
00:10:16,399 --> 00:10:21,120
of the with the additions.
>> I will.

7
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:27,279
» Thanks, Bruce. All those in favor?
Opposed? Carried. Uh, previous council

8
00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:30,160
meeting minutes of July 21st.
>> I'll do that.

9
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:34,800
» Thanks, Robin.
All those in favor?

10
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:40,959
Opposed? Carried. We have a delegation
at 9:30. groups coming in to talk about

11
00:10:37,519 --> 00:10:48,760
a Irma wildlife trail
and new business egg service department.

12
00:10:45,519 --> 00:10:48,760
» Here comes

13
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,920
» morning.

14
00:10:54,880 --> 00:11:03,200
So, everybody has the
report there. Any questions or comments

15
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:08,360
or [clears throat] anything you'd like
to you guys would like to add? Gals?

16
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:17,040
» Yeah. Roots was July this year. Good.
>> Perfect. Yeah. Roll roots was July this

17
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:21,839
year on a Wednesday. So that was a good
success. Again, we were um at capacity

18
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:26,399
on registration. We had a lot of work
kind of preparing for our ASB field

19
00:11:23,839 --> 00:11:31,279
visit. So that was this past Monday on
August 10th. So that went uh quite well.

20
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:34,720
We don't have too too much to kind of
follow up on with that. So, it was nice

21
00:11:33,279 --> 00:11:38,640
the board was able to join us for the
morning as well. Our new mix and load

22
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:43,200
pad that was approved at the planning
meeting earlier this year is uh all

23
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:46,640
complete at the recck shop and in use
and uh public works has helped us out on

24
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:50,160
a couple projects over the past month.
Um including installation of a

25
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:54,720
ventilation system on our new rack
control seat can and um helping out

26
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:58,000
getting our boat drying unit uh put
together and installed out at Clear

27
00:11:56,079 --> 00:12:02,160
Lake. So, that's officially operational
as of this past Friday, so you'll expect

28
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:07,360
to see a post about that on social
media. Um, the bery program is being

29
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:10,800
advertised. Um, the calendar contest
just closed this past Saturday. So, lots

30
00:12:09,519 --> 00:12:15,360
of the programs are kind of starting to
wrap up for the season. Um, Land View

31
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:19,200
got us our canola rotation risk mapping
information, so we'll be ready to start

32
00:12:16,959 --> 00:12:23,680
our club root inspections off of that.
Uh the mowing program was completed on

33
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:27,360
August 1st and everything's been going
pretty smoothly um with our roadside

34
00:12:25,839 --> 00:12:31,040
spray program. Everything's been
completed on rotation. So everyone's

35
00:12:29,519 --> 00:12:36,680
kind of working on the spot spraying and
the touch-ups and inspections in the

36
00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:36,680
private land projects now.

37
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:43,720
» Excellent. Any questions or comments on
that?

38
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:51,200
» No. Did the um mowing did that get
straightened away? I know there was a a

39
00:12:49,279 --> 00:12:54,480
comment last meeting about that. What's
is there a big improvement there?

40
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,360
» Uh well, it's definitely is something
that was happening all over the region

41
00:12:56,079 --> 00:13:00,959
like speaking with our kind of
counterparts in our neighboring

42
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:05,440
municipalities. It's it's really just
the amount of moisture and how thick and

43
00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:09,120
lush the grass was. So, it wasn't just
uh you know our people here that were

44
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:13,200
having a hard time with it. It was it
was all over um just with the conditions

45
00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:16,880
in the ditches this year. Like they they
haven't been that thick in a very long

46
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:20,800
time. So there's a yeah I don't know if
there's really much else that they could

47
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:24,480
have done uh to correct it and they
tried you know everything that they

48
00:13:22,399 --> 00:13:27,600
could try but it just the grass
condition it was hard to avoid

49
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:30,600
unfortunately.
>> Yep.

50
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:37,360
» Any other questions or comments?
>> I' I'd just like to say great job with

51
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,639
rural roots. I' I've heard a lot of
positive things on it. So

52
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:45,120
» both of you did an excellent job. So the
entertainment was good.

53
00:13:42,079 --> 00:13:48,160
» Good. Well, thank you so much.
Okay, motion to accept the report.

54
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:53,200
Thanks, Richard.
>> I have one question on the RMA bulletin.

55
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:57,440
There's a wellsight spray. Um, are you
in do you have information? Do you

56
00:13:55,040 --> 00:14:00,959
encourage rate payers to mention if they
see weed control as an issue on well

57
00:13:59,279 --> 00:14:05,920
sites or what do you where do we go for?
>> Oh, that would that would be good. Um, I

58
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:10,560
mean, we do have over 20,000 well sites
in the MD, so there's just no capacity

59
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:15,360
for us to be able to look at all of
that. Um, but if there does seem to be a

60
00:14:13,279 --> 00:14:18,800
trend of a, you know, a specific company
or or issues, it is great for rate

61
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:24,079
payers to go ahead and report that to
us. Um, the the process is tricky for

62
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:28,160
sure. Like I'm not entirely up on how it
looks like in the back end with the

63
00:14:25,519 --> 00:14:30,399
ARCAM orders, but I don't know if it's
very easy to get that reimbursement

64
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,279
back.
>> That's what I thought about like

65
00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:37,120
budgeting for that extra spray and then
whether or not we'll get paid for sure.

66
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,079
» Yeah, it's hard to say. Okay. And what
the yeah and like you know you do still

67
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:44,000
need to go through the enforcement
process with it. So but if there if

68
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:47,279
there is a trend um we definitely want
to know about you know if there is a

69
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:51,120
specific company that there does seem to
be ongoing issues with like it's good

70
00:14:49,199 --> 00:14:53,680
for us to be aware. Okay. Um and then we
can kind of investigate if that process

71
00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:57,519
is a good fit.
>> Okay. it's going to make extra work for

72
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,959
» which is I mean like it's good to
address those if someone is [snorts] you

73
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,480
know there seems to be a company that is
specifically not looking after those

74
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:08,399
issues and it's impacting producers then
we definitely want to know about that

75
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:12,000
and and do what we can in that area.
It's just the process seems like it

76
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:15,760
might be a little bit ownorous. Yeah.
>> Um as far as actually getting that

77
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:19,000
reimbursement back.
>> Thank you.

78
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:30,720
» Okay. Richard made the motion. All those
in favor opposed carried. Okay. We have

79
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:36,720
some RFDs rural roots 2027.
>> Yeah. So, as we just touched on our

80
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:41,519
past rural roots, so looking ahead to
2027 for hosting.

81
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,920
» Can I make a motion to go with option
one?

82
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,839
» Thanks, Sean. You want to host the rule
roots 2027? Any questions or comments on

83
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:52,000
that? I
>> If not, all those in favor?

84
00:15:50,399 --> 00:15:56,320
Opposed?
carried.

85
00:15:54,079 --> 00:16:00,240
» Okay. Northeast Regional Agriculture
Service Board Conference.

86
00:15:58,399 --> 00:16:04,320
» For this, we uh typically do bring an
RFD for um if council wishes to

87
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:08,880
authorize any additional counselors
beyond the board members to attend. Uh

88
00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:12,639
so oftent times uh a lot of members of
council do join for that. We do have our

89
00:16:10,959 --> 00:16:17,199
five board members which includes two
members of council and this is just for

90
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:21,519
additional.
>> Okay. Any questions or comments on that?

91
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:24,079
I'll make a motion to go with uh option
one.

92
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:27,199
» Okay. Thanks, Robin.
>> Yeah.

93
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,880
» I I think it's good that counselors
attend that. There's a lot of good

94
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,680
information there.
>> Yeah.

95
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:34,480
» Yes.
>> All those in favor?

96
00:16:32,639 --> 00:16:37,839
» Opposed?
Carried.

97
00:16:35,279 --> 00:16:43,120
» We'll get the uh the agenda sent out to
everybody.

98
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:48,320
» Uh roadside mowing 2027.
So roadside mowing, we went out for our

99
00:16:44,959 --> 00:16:52,320
RFP earlier this year for 2026. And uh
in that there's always the option for

100
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:57,120
the MD to extend the contract for
additional year uh if they so choose. So

101
00:16:55,120 --> 00:17:03,759
this is if you wish to op uh exercise
that option to extend the contract um to

102
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:10,079
2027 at the same rate at that was uh
paid this year at 102 per mile.

103
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:14,799
» I'll make a motion we go option one.
>> Okay. Thanks, Richard. Any questions or

104
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:18,880
comments?
If not, all those in favor?

105
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:23,280
Opposed?
Carried.

106
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:26,720
Okay. We have an RFD for our Wayright
Chemite contractor.

107
00:17:25,039 --> 00:17:30,720
» So, this one is our former chemical
container site at Wayright there. So,

108
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:34,240
we've undergone phase one and phase two
environmental site assessments and we're

109
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:38,559
ready to go through the final phase,
which is the demolition and uh

110
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:43,200
reclamation of the site. Uh it was bid
on last year and a contractor was

111
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:46,880
selected by council in September. Um
with the plans were to complete it last

112
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:50,240
fall um with our kind of ongoing
subdivision [clears throat] issues that

113
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:54,640
did get extended into spring and
unfortunately that was still ongoing. So

114
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:57,679
we finally that's all been resolved. The
site is free and clear for us to go

115
00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:02,400
ahead and do the work. Um but then of
course our contract extension had

116
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:06,960
expired by then. Um so our contractor is
uh that was initially selected by

117
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:10,160
council last September is uh available
to complete the work and they have

118
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,799
requested some additional funds to
fulfill that contract.

119
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:20,320
» Okay.
>> So they essentially want double the

120
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:25,120
amount to do the same work.
>> Uh they are still with this additional

121
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:28,880
funds they're still $5,000 lower than
the next lowest bid that was bid last

122
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:32,400
year. So, I don't think we're going to
find a better price. Like, there's still

123
00:18:31,120 --> 00:18:36,787
they're still lower than the next
lowest. And with the cost of fuel, how

124
00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:41,280
it's gone up, I don't think
[clears throat] that we'll be seeing uh

125
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:45,919
anything less than that.
>> So, did they give any reasoning to the

126
00:18:44,559 --> 00:18:49,120
price increase? Because it's not, you
know, 12% or

127
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,559
» Well, they would have seen the results
last year. They had like pretty

128
00:18:50,799 --> 00:18:56,559
significantly under bid the project
compared to what everyone else had bid

129
00:18:54,320 --> 00:19:02,080
it. So this puts them a little bit more
in alignment with what the next kind of

130
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:05,360
folks bid on it, but it is still less.
>> So would they have had to move the

131
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,520
equipment in twice now?
>> No, they didn't have to they haven't

132
00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:14,440
mobilized anything up yet. Um because we
were still waiting for that access to

133
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,440
the site.

134
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:21,200
» So I guess I would ask is there a time
crunch to get this done if we decide to

135
00:19:18,799 --> 00:19:28,320
rebid this? it would be nice to get it
done. Um, from the time that the phase 2

136
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:33,120
is complete, that was last year, we have
three years to complete the work because

137
00:19:30,559 --> 00:19:38,000
it's now an environmental liability
essentially because it's known um on our

138
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:42,400
financial statements. So, eliminating
this project would then take that off

139
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:45,960
our books, but it could still be done
next year technically.

140
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:54,880
that that much higher. We're not going
to get any cheaper.

141
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:58,640
» They'll raise their bids again, too.
>> Possibly. What do you guys want to do? I

142
00:19:58,008 --> 00:20:00,480
[clears throat] don't like this
increase. It's

143
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:03,120
» I don't I don't like it either.
>> I don't. But, you know,

144
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:08,720
» it sure seems like a good way to
extrapolate money from the MD.

145
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:13,840
» But having said that, the responsibility
on our part to get phase two done in a

146
00:20:11,919 --> 00:20:17,039
timely manner to proceed is
>> there was some hiccups there.

147
00:20:16,348 --> 00:20:19,600
» [clears throat]
>> I don't know.

148
00:20:17,679 --> 00:20:26,960
» It's going to be higher.
>> I realize that. I just

149
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:30,120
» Yeah, but we did make them wait a year
or two.

150
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:37,840
» Yeah, they were available and ready to
do it last year and it was kind of on

151
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:41,120
our end that it was a delay.
>> Y

152
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:45,360
» Is this something that could be done in
house?

153
00:20:42,799 --> 00:20:49,919
We looked at it, but it's a pretty big
job and that would mean pulling a lot

154
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:55,039
off of construction.
>> So, our engineering people are they've

155
00:20:53,360 --> 00:20:58,799
waited a year or two.
>> Yeah. Rohigh is our consultant on this.

156
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:02,240
So, they did our phase one and phase two
and then they would be involved with the

157
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:05,760
phase three and then once the excavation
is complete, they have to do some

158
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:08,880
confirmatory sampling uh just to make
sure that everything was removed that

159
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:13,280
needed to be removed. Um [clears throat]
once that lab analysis comes back, then

160
00:21:10,799 --> 00:21:18,919
it's the back fill and um adding the top
soil back on and then we would be doing

161
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,919
the seating after the fact.

162
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:25,520
» Um I'm not too sure. It's a like it's
definitely the hole um because they're

163
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:29,120
going to need to take the existing
building needs to be demolished. Uh the

164
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:34,559
materials need to be separated that
needs hauled out to the dump.

165
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:38,159
» And then well and then the excavation
and then the back fill engraving and all

166
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:41,520
of that
>> and I think in this case we did have a

167
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:47,120
contract with these folks that expired
and it wasn't due to their fault. The

168
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:50,480
responsibility was on ours. So with that
in mind, I I'm fine with contracting it

169
00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:54,159
out still. And like you said, I don't
think we'll get a cheaper price if we

170
00:21:52,559 --> 00:21:59,360
rebid it. I don't think the price is
going to decrease,

171
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:03,280
» but motion.
>> Thanks, Oscar.

172
00:22:01,360 --> 00:22:09,120
» Okay, any questions or comments on that
motion? If not, all those in favor?

173
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:13,480
» Opposed?
Carried.

174
00:22:09,919 --> 00:22:13,480
» Great. Thank you.

175
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,235
» Thanks, ladies.
[clears throat and cough]

176
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:25,720
Okay. And the ASB minutes are there for
your information.

177
00:22:37,919 --> 00:22:41,799
And I assume they're coming.

178
00:22:45,679 --> 00:22:48,679
» Yeah.

179
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:55,200
» Yeah. So,
>> good morning. How are you?

180
00:22:53,919 --> 00:22:59,159
They had trouble with
>> morning council

181
00:22:56,159 --> 00:22:59,159
» shield.

182
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,440
» Morning gentlemen.
>> Morning.

183
00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:07,200
» So we have the director of public works
report there.

184
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:14,919
Um
as Preston settling and any questions or

185
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:14,919
comments that anyone has

186
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:22,480
had a lot of contractors come through in
the last 10 days.

187
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:28,799
So boil's complete, line painting's
complete, crack sealing's complete. Um

188
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:36,320
the cementing we just completed here uh
last Friday and chip seal got first top

189
00:23:33,039 --> 00:23:40,720
coat done on all the new projects except
for uh division 3 project.

190
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:45,360
» Sounds okay.
>> Yeah, you went fishing. So it doesn't

191
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:51,760
» Yeah, it's just the way timing was. It's
uh been a long go. So obviously next

192
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:55,679
time uh contractors in we will chip seal
that project and then second coat

193
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:59,679
everything else do our single coat and
then do a top coat for second coat on

194
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:05,440
that project as well and we'll be
wrapped up on our contractors

195
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:10,240
also greater training
uh came in we did that last week it went

196
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:16,400
really well
received so that was a good day we have

197
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:22,240
another one scheduled here in September
So, we'll see how that goes.

198
00:24:20,159 --> 00:24:26,240
Uh, the weather has been somewhat
cooperative in the last little bit. Been

199
00:24:24,159 --> 00:24:30,960
going hard on construction. Uh, we're
working on the far east end at the

200
00:24:29,360 --> 00:24:35,679
start. That's where the some of the
largest fills and cuts are. Um, we're

201
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:39,279
working through that. So, it's taking us
a little time. We've been plagued with a

202
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:43,679
little bit of downtime as well. So,
currently we have one machine that's in

203
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:47,360
Edmonton uh that's in the shop. Just got
into the shop today. So last week it was

204
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:51,200
not in the shop and just got into the
shop actually yesterday. Not today.

205
00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:55,520
Yesterday. Uh so they're looking at
something in the back engine there. That

206
00:24:53,120 --> 00:25:00,400
was number two. So that's uh believe
that's one of our most recent purchases.

207
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:04,880
Uh we had one with a joystick that went
down. Another one with a I think it was

208
00:25:02,159 --> 00:25:09,600
a emission sensor or something. So I do
believe we have both fitting mechanics

209
00:25:07,039 --> 00:25:16,720
out there today to uh get these other
two machines running. and our 160 uh

210
00:25:14,159 --> 00:25:20,559
leak on the cylinder again.
Something going on in the 160. Yeah, I

211
00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:26,240
can't remember exactly the details on
it. So, and our Kamasu dozer, we had a

212
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,919
an issue with it as well. So, we this
last five days, seven days with

213
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:34,880
equipment has been quite interesting.
Kind of all piled up at the same time.

214
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:40,720
So, hopefully we get through this uh a
little bit of a delay here and back into

215
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:47,200
her and going hard again. So, as well as
we also had uh Sandstar return and do

216
00:25:43,279 --> 00:25:51,840
some warranty work on uh Range Rover 42.
Uh we're yet to do an inspection on

217
00:25:49,919 --> 00:25:58,640
that. We have a few things in house to
do before we call them in and uh return

218
00:25:55,279 --> 00:26:03,679
and visit with them on site.
I think from what I've seen so far, uh

219
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:08,960
they've stepped it up and it looks
pretty good. Um, but we still have to

220
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:12,080
watch some of the uh water drainage
issues that we were talked about

221
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:15,840
earlier. So, we'll look at that as well.
Take that in consideration.

222
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,080
» And unfortunately, the forecast doesn't
Well, fortunately or unfortunately,

223
00:26:17,679 --> 00:26:23,120
doesn't
>> depends how you look at it, right?

224
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:25,200
» It's Did we get John Deer back? Those
are

225
00:26:23,679 --> 00:26:27,520
» Yes, it did come back. It came back
right after council last

226
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,600
» Oh, okay.
>> last month. So,

227
00:26:28,799 --> 00:26:33,360
» it's working well.
>> Yeah, it's working well. We haven't had

228
00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:41,279
a glitch in it yet. So, probably coming
up close to that first uh you know 200

229
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:45,600
hour oil change getting close now. Yeah.
>> Are we starting to get close on getting

230
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:50,640
caught up on gravel and roads or are we
still June is pretty tough?

231
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:56,080
» Yeah, June is a tough month. Um I mean
we're we're going every day and and

232
00:26:52,559 --> 00:27:01,440
doing what we can. So, uh, and then you
mix in, you know, our cementing projects

233
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:06,000
and, uh, you know, the rolling projects.
So, I mean, we got got a lot going on.

234
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:10,559
Most of our most of our projects are in
the on the east side of the division

235
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:14,880
line. So, the contractors on the west
side is is only graveling roads, which I

236
00:27:13,039 --> 00:27:18,799
mean, it's it's still from Peter to feed
Paul depending on which year we do

237
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:22,840
things and how it works. But, yeah,
things are happening. They're going.

238
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:30,880
Any other questions or comments?
Not somebody want to make a motion to

239
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:36,000
accept the report as presented.
>> Thanks, Bruce. All those in favor?

240
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:43,279
Opposed?
Carried. And then our street light

241
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:47,760
project in south of town on 65. Uh, one
light is installed. Notice the wire has

242
00:27:45,679 --> 00:27:53,120
been wired to the other pole. So, we'll
see when the other lights installed.

243
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,120
Okay. Looks pretty close to me and
completed on that as well.

244
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:59,000
» Good.
>> That'll make you feel better.

245
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:06,000
» Director Director of safety report.
>> Morning.

246
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,960
» Morning.
>> Morning. Rick.

247
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:14,080
» Um the safety side. I'm sitting in on a
few webinars on hazardous materials and

248
00:28:11,279 --> 00:28:18,080
exposure um put on by ONS. There's
another two segments left of that uh

249
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:24,080
series. Other than that, it's business
as uh usual for safety. Uh for parks and

250
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:29,360
wreck, uh continuing to make our water
samples at Clear Lake Beach as per HNS.

251
00:28:27,039 --> 00:28:33,600
Uh met with some seasonals down at
Riverdale. Uh discuss some uh possible

252
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:40,000
upgrades, some ideas that they wanted to
put forward. Um ideas including some

253
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:44,159
speed signs, directional signs, um minor
stuff like that. Uh I have been uh

254
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:47,279
planning and prepping for the kids sport
tournament that took place last Friday.

255
00:28:45,679 --> 00:28:52,320
they've yet to come up with a uh a
raised number. Um from what I hear it

256
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:55,760
was done, it was over well received
really good. So uh we're just looking to

257
00:28:54,159 --> 00:29:01,200
see what uh what numbers kind of got
produced with that. Uh Arm Lake had a

258
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:05,200
pump go down uh about a week ago. I was
went out there, met up with uh

259
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:09,600
electrician. We swapped out a pump that
I had uh in the box of my truck,

260
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:14,240
reconfigured the control box there. Now
it seems like the pump is running on a a

261
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:20,320
better, steadier pace. So no issues, no
hiccups with that. uh as of yet. Um

262
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:23,919
yeah, and then just an update for for
council here for our construction of the

263
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:28,159
new cook shacks and chain shacks are
scheduled to begin at the uh end of this

264
00:29:25,919 --> 00:29:31,919
month. And then we have the siding for
Riverdale clubhouse looking toward the

265
00:29:30,399 --> 00:29:35,440
end of September and that's when they're
going to start just to kind of get get

266
00:29:33,679 --> 00:29:38,640
away from all the commotion and and all
the action that's out there. They kind

267
00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:42,960
of want to do it when it's a little
little quieter, right? So um

268
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:46,399
understandable. Uh this time next year
we'll have we'll have a brand new

269
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:49,360
clubhouse out there with new siding. So
>> middle of it

270
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:54,799
» I I'm hoping it looks a lot better than
it does. Uh no, we're actually going

271
00:29:51,440 --> 00:30:00,159
with a uh it's it's a Mildred blue, I
believe, is the color. Um it's uh I got

272
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:06,080
some samples I can show you guys, but
no, it'll it'll it'll it'll fit in

273
00:30:02,159 --> 00:30:10,159
really good out there, I think. So
>> Okay. Just with that pump at Arm Lake,

274
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,799
is is that like a is there a VFD there
on the control box? Is there parameters

275
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,919
set?
>> There is. So the so the the existing

276
00:30:14,559 --> 00:30:20,159
control box that we have there, there's
six settings. Only two of them have

277
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:23,840
functions. Um I when I went out there on
Saturday uh looking over the manual and

278
00:30:22,159 --> 00:30:28,720
and talking with the electrician, it was
sitting on function four, which really

279
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:32,880
didn't do anybody any any good. Uh so we
matched the hertz of the pump that we

280
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:37,520
installed with the uh correct uh setting
uh which is setting one with what we

281
00:30:34,799 --> 00:30:41,039
have. So um everything seems to be
kicked in. We're not getting any

282
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:45,279
overheating or anything like that. So,
uh, we're we're monitoring that and if

283
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:48,480
any issues arise, they'll they'll
contact me and myself and the

284
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:52,000
electrician will go out there again and
try to try to make sense of it again.

285
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:55,200
» Okay.
>> Excellent.

286
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:58,200
» Is there new washrooms at Clear Lake,
too?

287
00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:05,120
» No,
>> no, no, it was just the the chain shack.

288
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:09,279
» And the chain shack. The washrooms. Um,
I mean, they they get maintained. We

289
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:12,880
have our uh our contractor that does all
of Riverdale and Arm Lake. They go out

290
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,840
there and they clean them up often as
well.

291
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:19,679
» Uh but nothing nothing in the plan for
replacing those as of yet. Um definitely

292
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,080
something I can look into.
>> Yeah, we should.

293
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:25,360
» Okay. Then I will
>> Are you feeling that we should include

294
00:31:23,919 --> 00:31:28,386
that in the change rooms? Is that what
you're kind of hinting at?

295
00:31:26,159 --> 00:31:31,360
» I would think. Yeah, because the
[clears throat] ones that are there are

296
00:31:29,919 --> 00:31:35,279
very
>> not really good.

297
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:39,440
» Yeah. So I think what Mike said like so
for the work uh proposed for the the the

298
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:43,679
change or the cook shack and the change
rooms is already kind of said and done.

299
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:47,840
We we're going to get what we're going
to get for that. So the washrooms would

300
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:52,799
have to be a separate project all all on
itself. But I can definitely bring you

301
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:57,919
uh bring you a cost. Um and then we can
uh we can we put it in for next year's

302
00:31:55,200 --> 00:32:02,799
budget or I can talk to you a little bit
more one-on-one on that.

303
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:06,399
» Yeah. Yeah, we should. It would be a
little more entailed as well as

304
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:10,320
» Yeah.
>> Yeah. I I believe that should be a

305
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,600
separate project all together, but I
I'll get some numbers.

306
00:32:11,279 --> 00:32:15,279
» Yeah.
>> Yeah.

307
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:20,559
» Okay. Any other questions or comments on
the safety report as presented?

308
00:32:18,559 --> 00:32:25,600
» Not somebody may want to make motion.
Thanks, Richard. All those in favor?

309
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:32,000
» Opposed?
Carried. Um, if I could just talk to

310
00:32:28,399 --> 00:32:36,159
Preston on the Fabian water problem.
>> That happened after I submitted my

311
00:32:33,279 --> 00:32:42,880
report, so it wasn't included. So, yeah.
>> So, last Thursday approximately 8:30

312
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:48,880
a.m. um, one of the actually both VIPs
dumped in Fabian, uh, which then shut

313
00:32:45,679 --> 00:32:55,200
the water system off. Um this occurred
while we were filling uh the the

314
00:32:53,600 --> 00:33:00,960
maintenance truck that was flushing the
sewer systems. So uh obviously a little

315
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:07,519
bit different dynamic when when you put
a demand on the system at least enough

316
00:33:03,279 --> 00:33:12,399
to to engage the second pump. And uh we
had done it the day before had no

317
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:18,559
issues. Monday morning or excuse me,
Thursday morning we go out there. Uh

318
00:33:14,799 --> 00:33:24,399
same scenario and for some reason it
faulted both VFDs. So I mean we also

319
00:33:22,559 --> 00:33:29,039
called Battle River Electric in at the
same time because we couldn't get the

320
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:34,480
VFDs to restart. Uh we did unplug the
the PLC system, the ProLogic controller.

321
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:40,480
Uh plugged it back in which then
restarted the VFDs and the system went

322
00:33:37,039 --> 00:33:45,679
back online. Electrician came out. Uh
basically the the fault on there is a

323
00:33:43,039 --> 00:33:53,200
parameter that the VFD picks up on and
then of course it uh it basically shuts

324
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:57,519
down in uh in I guess like a like a a
saving mode so it doesn't uh I guess do

325
00:33:56,159 --> 00:34:03,919
something to your pump or something to
the BFD. So, I would assume that because

326
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:08,560
of the technology, uh, just things
talking back and forth, maybe, you know,

327
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:12,240
with the PLC being a little bit older
and the VFD being brand new, there's

328
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:16,079
some, uh, some issues with that
communication. I'm not 100% sure. We

329
00:34:14,159 --> 00:34:21,760
don't really know for sure, but he was
able to uh, prevent that from happening

330
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:24,879
again by uh, doing something inside the
VFD and programming it. Uh, we did the

331
00:34:23,928 --> 00:34:29,520
[clears throat] same thing at our other
system because they're exactly the same.

332
00:34:26,879 --> 00:34:35,280
But why it happened, we really honestly
don't know.

333
00:34:31,359 --> 00:34:39,440
So, um, got the system up and running by
9:25.

334
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:44,960
Um, we did actually put a notice on the
MD website at 9:00 for the boil water

335
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:48,960
advisory. Approximately at 10:30, we had
door knockers out for the boil water

336
00:34:46,639 --> 00:34:54,240
advisory. We flushed the system from
both uh flush hydrants, checked chlorine

337
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:59,200
residuals, then turned around and then
we grabbed bacterial samples and then we

338
00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:03,040
took those to dropped them off. And then
the next day we got the information from

339
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:07,520
Alberta Health Services that uh
everything was good. And then we lifted

340
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:12,000
the boil water order after that. Excuse
me. Boil water advisory not.

341
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:14,960
» So those those door knockers I'm
assuming you just grabbed some summer

342
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:18,000
students and bang on doors. Do we
>> luckily enough they happen to be there

343
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:21,280
at the time. So yeah, I was able to do
that. Otherwise,

344
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:26,160
» that doesn't work.
>> Do we leave any literature there on the

345
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,800
on the door or anything like that or
nobody answers, what do we do?

346
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,400
» Yeah, we stick it in the door.
>> Okay.

347
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:34,720
» And close it.
>> I had one rate payer phone me and say

348
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:37,599
they didn't find out till that night.
>> Their teenage kids have been using the

349
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:42,960
water all day and they were quite
concerned about that.

350
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:45,920
» Yeah, it's I mean it's tough. Uh can't
say for sure exactly how to correct

351
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:49,119
that.
I'm sure other communities have a lot of

352
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:53,040
the same issues. I mean, there's no way
Calgary can have a boil water order on

353
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:56,560
and knock on every door and hand out to
everybody as well. I mean, I know we're

354
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:59,599
not the same size, but I mean,
obviously, they have people that fall

355
00:35:58,079 --> 00:36:03,320
through the cracks. We'll have people
that fall through the cracks.

356
00:36:03,599 --> 00:36:12,079
I don't know what to say. We could as
part of our uh utility program, maybe we

357
00:36:09,359 --> 00:36:16,880
could take uh information on that side
and then we can have a fan out email

358
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:21,599
that'll help cover some of the cracks,
but I doubt we'll ever be able to get

359
00:36:19,359 --> 00:36:25,119
across to everybody.
Okay.

360
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:27,920
I mean, you could put it in the front
door and they use the back door. You can

361
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:33,040
put it in the back door and use the
front door. I don't know.

362
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:37,200
No, I know this person had wondered like
with the school buses, they have a group

363
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:41,480
text if the bus isn't going to be I mean
to put 90 people on a group text is kind

364
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:43,599
of
[snorts]

365
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,599
» uh I'm sure it's not impossible.
>> It's doable.

366
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,240
» Yeah.
>> Email.

367
00:36:46,240 --> 00:36:52,160
» Yeah,
that could be something that uh

368
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:55,599
potentially on
on the office side they could look into

369
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,240
» eliminating your need [laughter] for
door knockers.

370
00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:01,359
» They would be helpful for sure.
>> Had a text blast go out to everybody.

371
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:04,960
Yeah,
>> you need both.

372
00:37:03,359 --> 00:37:09,645
» I think you would need both still. Yeah,
if if they're available. Like you said,

373
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:12,720
this time they were right there.
[laughter]

374
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:17,200
» It was advertised on social media.
>> Bruce,

375
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:21,920
» yeah.
>> Although I know I got three or four

376
00:37:19,599 --> 00:37:24,160
older rateayers there that don't have
computers or that, right?

377
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:27,920
» No.
>> Okay. Well, I think administration will

378
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:33,119
have a conversation about that and maybe
look at a way we could enhance or

379
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:37,520
improve on that, but for the most part,
I agree with you. There's no perfect

380
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:41,839
solution for it. So,
>> when you bring up the summer students,

381
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:45,359
are we able or is it even uh make sense
to train them for traffic?

382
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:49,680
» You don't know which houses are traffic
control. Can they be trained in that way

383
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:54,560
or is it a pretty involved procedure or
what?

384
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:57,359
» I mean, it's not impossible. Um last
year we didn't use any traffic control.

385
00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:01,839
» Yeah.
>> So it's it's hit and miss.

386
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:05,440
» Yeah.
>> Just project specific. Yeah. Very

387
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:09,599
project specific.
>> Okay.

388
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:15,839
Good conversation.
Um RFD salt and sanding.

389
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,079
» You guys got a couple.
>> Yeah, I got a truck first.

390
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:22,960
» We had a truck first.
>> Oh, on mine it shows the Okay, let's do

391
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:25,520
the mechanic truck first then. You're uh
you're [laughter] right, Mike.

392
00:38:23,839 --> 00:38:29,280
» You're leading the show here, boss. So,
whatever you want to do.

393
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:32,400
» Yeah, we'll start with No, I I listen to
the people. We start with the mechanic

394
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:37,040
truck. [laughter]
>> No, that that's D on the thing, not C.

395
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:44,000
» Okay. As presented in the planning
meeting. This is our mechanic truck. Um

396
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:49,920
I went through canoe RMA pricing to uh
bring forward uh a couple units for

397
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:55,200
council to look at. Uh we are within
budget.

398
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:59,280
on this proposal. So, we had a truck
presented by commercial and a truck

399
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:04,720
presented by brand track and trailer,
not tractor. Um, the commercial truck is

400
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:09,920
a 2026
chassis. The brand truck is a 2024

401
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:14,079
chassis.
Uh, the box on both of them are very

402
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:21,920
similar.
Uh, the commercial truck is a is a super

403
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:24,240
cab and the brand truck is a quad cab.
So,

404
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,320
» what kind of trucks are they?
>> They're both Ford diesels.

405
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,800
» Ford?
>> Yeah.

406
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:32,640
» And we're not replacing a truck. I'm
sorry. This is

407
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:35,440
» So, we have a 19 I believe it's a 91.
>> We're keeping it then.

408
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:40,240
» No, we'll put it on.
>> Okay.

409
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:43,760
» So, it's a replacement, not a
>> Okay. You might not have heard it

410
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:48,160
because Oscar didn't have his mic on,
but he makes a motion to go with option

411
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:50,960
one, um, commercial
truck, I believe it says.

412
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:55,440
» Yeah.
>> Okay. Any other questions or comments on

413
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:58,560
that mo motion?
>> This is coming with new tooling I see in

414
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,760
there as well.
>> Yeah, we added some budget dollars for

415
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:07,040
tooling.
>> So, it's got a compressor and

416
00:40:04,720 --> 00:40:13,359
» it has Yes, it has a compressor.
>> I'm assuming a crane. Yeah, it has a

417
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:19,359
5500 pound crane. It has compressor. It
has a 12vt 24volt booster pack.

418
00:40:17,359 --> 00:40:23,527
So,
um, yeah, it's done up pretty nice. So,

419
00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:28,320
okay. [cough] Other questions
[clears throat] or comments?

420
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:32,720
All those in favor?
Opposed?

421
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:36,000
Carried.
Okay. Are you guys doing good with road

422
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:40,160
salt now?
>> That's Mike. Road [laughter] salt.

423
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:42,480
» Well, in our book it says that you're
good.

424
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:48,640
» They're here. Yeah, we'll we have three
RP. We'll get through here.

425
00:40:44,720 --> 00:40:55,040
» Okay. Road salt and sand mixing. So,
okay. So, seasonal road salt and sand

426
00:40:50,880 --> 00:41:01,040
mixing uh in the past uh I've always
used site energy. I have looked a few

427
00:40:58,079 --> 00:41:05,200
years back for another mixer. I did not
check this year for another mixer. We're

428
00:41:03,359 --> 00:41:11,040
kind of late in the game. something I
could look at going forward. Site is

429
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:15,680
comes Site Energy comes to our location
and does all the mixing and uh they've

430
00:41:13,599 --> 00:41:18,960
done a pretty good job in the last 20
years.

431
00:41:16,079 --> 00:41:25,520
» How's the price comparable to last year?
>> It's up uh 35 cents I believe 610 last

432
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:28,640
year
>> with fuel that's fairly

433
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:34,800
» fairly negligible.
>> Okay, any other questions or comments?

434
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:40,800
I make a motion to go with accept this
quote.

435
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:45,079
» Okay. Thanks, Sean. All those in favor?
Opposed? Carried

436
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:56,560
chip seal budget increase. So, the
square meters are presented at uh

437
00:41:50,640 --> 00:42:02,079
planning for our 2026 chip seal. Um
it's a little bit lower than what we're

438
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:09,599
we're getting on site. So we completed
the first four projects.

439
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:15,599
We have a we have a overage on budget if
we continue at this rate. Um so as

440
00:42:13,599 --> 00:42:20,480
opposed to cancelling one of our single
chip projects to stay within budget. Uh

441
00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:25,200
Tyson and I looked at numbers and
decided that if we present an overage to

442
00:42:23,119 --> 00:42:29,079
council and they approve it, we can stay
within budget and continue.

443
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:39,040
Okay. So some of these just for a little
bit of uh information. So as we approve

444
00:42:35,359 --> 00:42:44,240
these projects, we're approving them for
November for uh chips seal in in the

445
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:47,839
beginning of the year. We can maybe look
at this process a little differently.

446
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:53,599
That will help us out. As we get in
there and we we rip the road and work it

447
00:42:51,119 --> 00:42:57,599
over, we can we can find that we can get
a little bit more surface area to

448
00:42:55,440 --> 00:43:01,839
stabilize, which is probably what
council wants. I mean, if if you have an

449
00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:06,319
8 meter top, when you look at it, you
rip it and spread it and get it ready

450
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:09,520
and you have, oh, we can get eight and a
half out of this. It makes more sense to

451
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:13,280
stabilize eight and a half as supposed
to leave it up. So, this is where I ran

452
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:18,079
into on one of our projects. We had got
a half a meter more than what was given

453
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:21,280
to me by the measurement. So,
>> which is a good thing.

454
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,720
» It It's a positive, but it does change
numbers.

455
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:28,240
» Yeah. So,
>> I'll make that motion, Mike.

456
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:31,200
» Thank you, Oscar. Good to hear you
buddy.

457
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:36,400
» Any questions or comments?
>> If not, all those in favor? Opposed?

458
00:43:35,119 --> 00:43:41,040
Carried.
>> Okay. Fog seal budget edition as well.

459
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:48,400
So in the fog seal, what happened here
was uh I made an error in the RFP.

460
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:52,800
Uh I used miles
as my number but put kilometers in. So

461
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:57,440
obviously when you convert miles to
kilometers, it's more. So, uh, that's

462
00:43:55,599 --> 00:44:03,119
where the mistake was made. So, I think
we have an overage approximately $8,700

463
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:06,560
or something to the effect. I mean, we
had to get the final invoicing in. So,

464
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:12,160
we went with the with this number here
to cover that for budget. So, it was an

465
00:44:09,599 --> 00:44:16,160
error in unit of measurement as opposed
to uh

466
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:19,839
not measuring correctly.
>> Okay, I'll make a motion. We go with

467
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:25,200
option one.
>> This this box seal seems better than

468
00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:30,560
last time. This is a different product.
Well, no. Last year, well, from what you

469
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:34,400
saw in your area last time. Yeah. But
last year, we used the same product on

470
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:38,400
the east end of MD, right?
>> And uh this year they

471
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:42,480
» It sure seem to seal everything.
>> Yeah. It's it's a nice product. It's a

472
00:44:40,240 --> 00:44:46,560
It seems to be a little thicker. Kind of
flows into the low spots between the

473
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:50,800
stones. Fills that in a bit. Stays soft.
You can go out there next month and can

474
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:54,240
fingernail test it and it stays a little
softer.

475
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:57,119
» Yeah. Okay,
>> Richard made the motion to go with

476
00:44:55,680 --> 00:45:03,440
option one and [clears throat] approve
the increase. All those in favor?

477
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:08,760
Opposed?
Carried.

478
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,760
Thanks, gentlemen.

479
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,000
» Have a good day.

480
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:24,319
» Yeah, you should.
>> Yeah, that's probably a good idea.

481
00:45:40,240 --> 00:45:49,520
Um, yes, last night I was out doing some
road checks, some mowing checks. Found a

482
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:53,680
couple signs and
I think your mic.

483
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,680
» Yep.

484
00:45:54,319 --> 00:45:57,560
Keep it

485
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,920
» already.

486
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:23,480
We have it in our package too though.

487
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:38,200
Yes.

488
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:51,200
» While they're while they're building uh
getting that ready here, we can just go

489
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:58,760
around and do in introductions quick if
that works. We'll start with our parks.

490
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:58,760
Director of

491
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,880
» Tyson.

492
00:48:10,319 --> 00:48:14,040
» We met in the lobby.

493
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:24,280
» Sean R.
>> Robin Leon.

494
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:43,359
And then yeah, so just in behind us um
working on bringing this up is Stephen,

495
00:48:38,720 --> 00:48:46,839
our IT guy and Dana is our
development officer.

496
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:51,880
So we'll just give it a second to come
up. So

497
00:48:55,839 --> 00:49:01,640
It's in the package.
>> It was in the package as well. Yeah.

498
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:37,280
Perfect. I think we're good. So, thanks
for coming in and I'll let you ladies

499
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:45,280
run with it.
>> Absolutely. So, um the three of us along

500
00:49:40,319 --> 00:49:50,240
with two other people are Irma trail
separate from the village of Irma. We

501
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:57,440
are just a volunteer group that has
decided there's a little bit of a need

502
00:49:53,280 --> 00:50:04,480
for a community trail that's multiuse in
so we got together and had a meeting

503
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:08,559
and uh we created a vision. We just want
to try, it might not look exactly like

504
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:14,800
this picture, but um we're just trying
to create a safe and accessible

505
00:50:12,319 --> 00:50:20,319
community trail that is going to connect
throughout our town and um encourage

506
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:24,720
some healthy living and connect our
neighborhoods a little bit, support some

507
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:28,240
more recreation because right now a lot
of it happens on some sidewalks in our

508
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:34,640
village, but a lot of it happens on the
roads

509
00:50:30,559 --> 00:50:34,640
and maybe help some tourism with

510
00:50:35,359 --> 00:50:40,520
celebrate some of that history that we
have.

511
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:46,960
So, uh we have our mission here and we
are going to work with the village of

512
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:53,599
Burma. We're hoping to work with you
guys as well and uh volunteers hopefully

513
00:50:50,559 --> 00:50:58,800
not just the five of us but um some
other volunteers pretty much show up in

514
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:03,920
Irma once they see some of the product
that's produced. We're going to trying

515
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:09,680
to get some funding either from some
local businesses or just fundraising

516
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:15,599
ourselves and um then of course once the
trail is made it but then we also need

517
00:51:12,720 --> 00:51:20,119
to maintain it and support it afterwards
so we're as

518
00:51:20,559 --> 00:51:27,200
we have a phase one which is
approximately 1 I'll show you after of

519
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:34,880
what that would look like we're hoping
in one year to have one put down we do

520
00:51:30,559 --> 00:51:40,319
have very uh longterm phase of a total
of six meters. That might be a little

521
00:51:37,359 --> 00:51:45,400
bit ambitious for us, but um we're going
to look at taking four years. We're

522
00:51:41,839 --> 00:51:45,400
going to see how the fundraising

523
00:51:46,720 --> 00:51:54,720
um on the next slide we have some goals.
These aren't in any particular order,

524
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:58,480
but we want to complete the planning. We
have not started the planning of it

525
00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:03,280
other than where we would like to put
it. And then we have spoken with company

526
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:08,480
that we would
um the biggest part is the funding. So

527
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:14,640
we got to secure our funding and then we
would construct it. We're looking at a

528
00:52:10,319 --> 00:52:19,200
six foot wide trail and then
starting with that first kilometer then

529
00:52:16,720 --> 00:52:23,359
later four is completing the other
sections. We haven't decided an order

530
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:28,559
for that. We know which first kilometer
we want but we don't know after that.

531
00:52:25,599 --> 00:52:34,920
And then goal five is to get some
community involvement. And we're hoping

532
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:34,920
once we put that first down

533
00:52:35,359 --> 00:52:39,240
benefits them and

534
00:52:39,359 --> 00:52:42,359
there

535
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:53,200
is asking the village to help us.
The trail is going to be six feet wide.

536
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:59,280
It needs like it's clay base or the
existing base dug down. Then on top of

537
00:52:56,160 --> 00:53:05,599
that either crushed gravel or crushed
cementing used for that and the biggest

538
00:53:02,079 --> 00:53:10,400
cost is the ashalt on top
side but there would just be the ashalt

539
00:53:07,359 --> 00:53:16,960
surface with drainage on each side. We
were quoted approximately anywhere

540
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:20,839
between $15 to $142 per square meter.
That doesn't sound too bad.

541
00:53:22,079 --> 00:53:29,280
thing. And this one's a little bit
smaller. This next slide will be a

542
00:53:25,359 --> 00:53:34,960
little bit smaller um for you to see and
maybe you can look at it yourself later.

543
00:53:32,079 --> 00:53:40,480
But we have the colorful parts or the
places we have talked about maybe

544
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:45,200
putting down the after the first
section. Um you can see the word school

545
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:49,839
there and golf course has a yellow line.
If you want to go to the next slide to

546
00:53:47,359 --> 00:53:55,440
see this is where we want to start. So
from the school that bright yellow

547
00:53:52,000 --> 00:54:00,559
highlighted line over to the golf course
or possibly a little bit further to the

548
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:06,640
greener.
Um the approximate cost could range

549
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:11,359
anywhere from $189,000 to $256,000
for that one.

550
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:15,359
And the reason for that is our first
choice is there right now is there

551
00:54:13,599 --> 00:54:20,640
aren't any sidewalks coming from our
school. And so if you go to the next

552
00:54:17,359 --> 00:54:25,920
slide, this is the view parking lot from
the school. The curb on the right hand

553
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:32,559
side is coming out of a staff parking
lot where a lot of students walk and

554
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:38,160
they walk going towards the east on the
road. And at the other end of that road

555
00:54:35,359 --> 00:54:42,960
is the golf course. And we have a lot of
students on Monday nights go to probably

556
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:47,760
30 to 40 students walk along that road
to go golfing, carrying their golf

557
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:51,920
clubs. And um there's a little bit of a
hill you can The second picture maybe

558
00:54:49,839 --> 00:54:55,280
shows that a little bit more and they
just walk straight across the road. We

559
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:59,119
thought that would be a good starting
place for safety reasons and there's

560
00:54:57,359 --> 00:55:03,440
also a lot of students daily that walk
along that road to

561
00:55:01,359 --> 00:55:10,480
so that's where our starting place is
and if I could just point we would be

562
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:15,480
starting in front of this is our museum
starting in front of this.

563
00:55:16,319 --> 00:55:26,079
So that's where we're hoping to start
and go to the first our first call.

564
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:31,599
So why are we here? Our asks are um we
just I guess we want permission to

565
00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:37,760
proceed because some of this is on MD
land. Uh cooperating with you would be

566
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:43,359
great as well, but also cooperation from
the people who own land in the MD who

567
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:48,160
want permission to go and speak with
them or if there's a different that

568
00:55:45,839 --> 00:55:51,839
needs to take place. So ask them to
please

569
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:58,640
some of it might be on their some of it
might be in front of their and then um

570
00:55:56,319 --> 00:56:04,000
any involvement that you can give us
would be great. I know that there is

571
00:56:00,799 --> 00:56:08,319
apparently a pile of um concrete and
perma that can be crushed up and we

572
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:11,920
might be able to use that. Not that it's
owned by the MD, but something similar

573
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:17,040
to that could be something we could look
at if we had any way to help us with

574
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:21,359
that. So, that would be the last thing.
Supplies and tools.

575
00:56:19,599 --> 00:56:25,200
Right now, we're not able to ask for
money, but we're not saying we're not.

576
00:56:24,423 --> 00:56:31,920
[laughter]
But right now, we're just asking

577
00:56:28,559 --> 00:56:38,880
basically permission to proceed and ask
people who live in your guys's

578
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,880
jurisdiction whether

579
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:51,640
on their possibly.
So that's all I have to say.

580
00:56:48,079 --> 00:56:51,640
So they can

581
00:56:54,079 --> 00:57:01,760
» Yeah, we'll open it up for questions if
anybody has any questions or comments.

582
00:56:58,799 --> 00:57:07,920
What's the price?
>> Well, it would be

583
00:57:04,319 --> 00:57:14,480
1.5 million if we proceeded with the six
phases for the six kilometers total. Um,

584
00:57:11,839 --> 00:57:21,040
I'm hoping the first kilometer goes down
and that might be worth it if that took

585
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:25,520
a lot of work. You know, if it's if the
fundraising is coming from little bits

586
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:29,119
at a time and there not isn't a lot of
community involvement and the community

587
00:57:27,599 --> 00:57:32,119
is
activities.

588
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:39,720
If it's a struggle to get that first
meter done, that might be

589
00:57:39,839 --> 00:57:47,559
a commitment to the six meters. I feel
like we've sort of made a commitment.

590
00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,559
Not that anyone.

591
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:57,640
» Okay. It would be at the highest end 1.5
million for

592
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:11,599
the first
>> when Eddie talked to us um the person

593
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:16,960
getting the he said the maximum would be
approximately a quarter million dollar

594
00:58:14,799 --> 00:58:22,960
but he's giving us that highest number
if we had to purchase all the gravel.

595
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:27,280
If we didn't have any tools used from
the village office, let's say, or if you

596
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:34,359
had tools, you know, if there was a cut
we could use, we had to pay for

597
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:34,359
everything all in the 256,000.

598
00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:45,280
» Okay. I I I think we um
like just reading this correctly, you

599
00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:49,200
guys just want to make sure it's okay to
put it within the MD own property and

600
00:58:48,559 --> 00:58:53,440
that
>> you can have permission from the MD to

601
00:58:51,839 --> 00:58:56,480
go and speak to the residents about
putting it on there.

602
00:58:54,640 --> 00:59:02,319
» So, that's the first step. So, I I guess
I'll I'll kind of refer to Preston on

603
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:07,359
this as our public works director if we
would have any issues or if there'd be

604
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:15,200
any liabilities that you could foresee.
maintenance is first time line. So in

605
00:59:11,119 --> 00:59:21,920
your vision, Shelly, um where exactly
does this uh multi-use trail is it is it

606
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:25,040
adjacent to the road? Is it 3 meters to
the north of the road? It looks like

607
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:29,119
it's all on the north side, but
>> yeah. Um

608
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:33,280
» yeah. So is it uh is it along the north
side of the the rightway? Is it like

609
00:59:32,079 --> 00:59:36,000
whereabouts is it? Just out of
curiosity. um

610
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:37,839
» in your mind and maybe you haven't even
thought about that yet which is quite

611
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:43,359
possible
>> about it because there is some fencing

612
00:59:39,599 --> 00:59:48,480
that is right side the museum that we
wouldn't need to be on the other side of

613
00:59:45,839 --> 00:59:53,680
that fencing we would be very close to
the road in some sections then there's

614
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:57,280
also quite a deep ditch where we would
almost need to go to the bottom of the

615
00:59:55,119 --> 01:00:01,640
ditch and then that makes us have to
take a few trees out which now

616
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:12,640
probably into the person's property. So
it it might I don't know if it would be

617
01:00:09,359 --> 01:00:19,559
uniform always right against the road. I
don't think that it right now can

618
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,559
without a lot of alterations

619
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:24,880
» because what comes to mind is what was
that?

620
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:28,960
» Yeah, it sounds like it would all be in
the rightway in the north side. What

621
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:35,520
comes to mind is uh in the winter time
when we snow plow um whoever cleans the

622
01:00:32,319 --> 01:00:37,520
trail we go by we fill it.
>> Right.

623
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:42,000
» Right. So there there's some of that
unless there's a separation or I mean

624
01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:44,559
attaching it right to the should of the
road

625
01:00:42,799 --> 01:00:48,160
» in the future if we ever have to fix
that road that becomes an issue as well.

626
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:53,359
So I think there's some communication
there. Uh, not that I'm trying to, you

627
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:57,680
know, I'm just trying to make you more
aware of potentially what what we may be

628
01:00:56,079 --> 01:00:59,920
looking for so that we can try and
figure that out and work together.

629
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:04,240
Right.
>> Yeah. And we presented to the office

630
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:08,960
last week asking for maintenance on the
trail specifically and they gave us the

631
01:01:07,359 --> 01:01:14,839
thumbs up on that, but I hadn't thought
about when you guys are clearing that

632
01:01:11,119 --> 01:01:14,839
road now.

633
01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:19,760
» Yeah, potentially depending on where it
is, right?

634
01:01:26,319 --> 01:01:32,440
So this requires a development permit
Dana in a sense or what

635
01:01:33,839 --> 01:01:40,200
» council approve. Okay.
>> Yeah.

636
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:40,200
» Right.

637
01:01:40,319 --> 01:01:48,559
» Gotcha. Wasn't sure if that right. Yeah.
I I think that a good next step would be

638
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:50,960
it's it's hard for us until we know
exactly where it's going to be in the

639
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:54,480
rightway
>> to give permission or not, but I'm not

640
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:56,960
saying we're close to the idea.
>> I think we would don't want to

641
01:01:55,760 --> 01:02:01,200
discourage you in any way, shape, or
form, but I think it would be just for

642
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:05,040
the next step a good good idea to have
um the local counselor and our public

643
01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:08,160
works director to come out there and get
a lay of the land and exactly on what

644
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:13,119
you guys are looking at and then they
can report it back to us and then at

645
01:02:10,799 --> 01:02:18,079
that point we can have a more um
informed discussion on how it's going to

646
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:23,000
look and what some of the what some of
the details would be.

647
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:23,000
» Okay.

648
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:39,160
» Okay.
>> Good.

649
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:39,160
» Is that

650
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:45,839
pretty good work?
And then in continuing phases, I

651
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:50,400
encourage us to come to like the
Wayright Rural Rec Board and things like

652
01:02:48,319 --> 01:02:55,400
that as well or not just their local
one. Why wouldn't we go in on it as

653
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:55,400
well?

654
01:02:55,599 --> 01:03:02,280
» I think it includes us. No, I like it.
>> I I think when

655
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,280
» I don't mind,

656
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:12,480
» let them do their wreck board first.
>> What about grants? Is there any grants

657
01:03:10,319 --> 01:03:14,720
that this would fall under? started.
>> You guys have started the process

658
01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:17,720
already. Okay.
>> Excellent.

659
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:23,079
» Not yet.
>> Okay.

660
01:03:19,839 --> 01:03:23,079
» We've actually

661
01:03:34,559 --> 01:03:43,200
the items I brought up to discourage
project. It's to to help us, you know,

662
01:03:41,599 --> 01:03:47,520
build a better project for an end
result, right? That works good for the

663
01:03:45,359 --> 01:03:51,440
village of Irma and also works good for
the maintenance side as well because we

664
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:57,520
don't need the two of them clashing and
that that just doesn't work in the end.

665
01:03:54,000 --> 01:04:01,440
» Yeah. And that higher end amount is, you
know, tree removal.

666
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:06,480
» It's it's the most expensive it will.
So, if we fund raise that amount, it

667
01:04:03,359 --> 01:04:08,960
could possibly take us if there isn't a
lot.

668
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:26,240
So [clears throat] if you go back to
um this is the golf course and this is

669
01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:31,520
so it doesn't show up very well but we
were thinking this one is more in nature

670
01:04:29,039 --> 01:04:37,119
and here we start in the village itself
it starts to get a little bit difficult

671
01:04:34,079 --> 01:04:42,799
because we don't have sidewalks So now
you're building something that's in the

672
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:48,440
village that's ashalt that's taking the
place of the sidewalk.

673
01:04:44,799 --> 01:04:48,440
That's a mile up

674
01:04:48,799 --> 01:04:57,200
and
>> then this is like

675
01:04:53,520 --> 01:05:01,720
nature. This isn't a road. So this is
Donna Smallwood owns the land

676
01:05:04,799 --> 01:05:11,520
beside the golf course between the road
and the golf course

677
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:15,400
» that would be right to the golf course
and then come back

678
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:26,559
» that we we had talked about that being
our

679
01:05:25,119 --> 01:05:32,920
phase.
>> Um, and then possibly that purple line.

680
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:42,240
» Yeah. Come basically be another way to
get to the village from that area.

681
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:46,240
» Short walk or long walk.
>> Yeah,

682
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:50,720
I think our first step too was safety.
And I guess that's why I got involved.

683
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:55,520
So many children are on the boat. If
there was something that looked like a

684
01:05:53,359 --> 01:06:00,079
walking path or your bicycle could go up
there, it really moves the children's

685
01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:05,680
walk over because there's there's a lot
of near misses. We've got a lot of kids

686
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:11,880
down that road all over and it would be
a lot and we have a lot that's

687
01:06:13,359 --> 01:06:18,760
» good. Yep. Any other questions or
comments?

688
01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:25,240
right next to the house.

689
01:06:43,039 --> 01:06:48,480
Well, I I think when Garnet and Preston
go out there and meet with them that

690
01:06:46,559 --> 01:06:52,799
when it does look where speeds start to
elevate and it's a concern, maybe there

691
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:57,680
is the option to come on the outside,
but I I think I'll leave that in their

692
01:06:54,799 --> 01:07:01,440
hands to bring it back to us.
I I I hear what you're saying, Oscar,

693
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:05,119
but we're kind of making some
assumptions and

694
01:07:03,359 --> 01:07:08,400
» I think it's best just to to go out and
meet with these folks.

695
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:10,960
» Yeah, I think your first stretch is
should be like your lower speeds and it

696
01:07:10,319 --> 01:07:15,039
should
>> Well, that is that is a speed zone

697
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:17,520
already.
>> And there is a lot of people walking out

698
01:07:16,799 --> 01:07:21,440
there
>> and there are a lot of people who walk

699
01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:24,880
on the road north of the golf course
>> already and their kids are on bikes and

700
01:07:23,359 --> 01:07:28,880
stuff. So, right now they are on the
road.

701
01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:30,720
moving them off of the road.
>> Better.

702
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,039
» Look, it's the main walk.
>> Thank you very much for your time.

703
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:37,359
» It's the main walk.
>> Thank you for coming in. So, we will um

704
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:40,319
line it up with Garnet Preston and if
your contractor could be there, that

705
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:43,119
would be ideal. But
>> there's a communication.

706
01:07:41,119 --> 01:07:46,480
» So, Shel, I'll contact you to organize a
meeting and then we'll go from there.

707
01:07:44,319 --> 01:07:49,200
I'll get some dates from you and we'll
look.

708
01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:52,000
» For sure. Thank you so You're welcome to
stay for coffee. We're going to break

709
01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:55,520
for coffee. You're welcome to stay if
you like or

710
01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:58,960
» guess that was
Okay, we'll get him out there as well.

711
01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:02,400
Yeah.
>> Okay, we're going to break for coffee.

712
01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:41,600
It's
>> all that counts.

713
01:43:39,840 --> 01:43:46,239
» Okay, we'll call the meeting back to
order.

714
01:43:43,119 --> 01:43:50,400
And getting into finance.
So, accounts were sent out on Friday

715
01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:56,981
after finance. Any questions or comments
on those?

716
01:43:53,199 --> 01:43:58,239
» If not, somebody want to move them.
[laughter]

717
01:43:57,119 --> 01:43:59,840
» Who did finance?
>> Me.

718
01:43:58,719 --> 01:44:04,880
» Sean. Yeah,
>> Sean and I were here Friday.

719
01:44:01,920 --> 01:44:07,199
» Thanks, Sean. Any Oh, I already asked
that. All those in favor?

720
01:44:06,639 --> 01:44:13,040
» Yeah.
>> Opposed? Carried.

721
01:44:10,639 --> 01:44:18,560
Financial statements.
Any questions or comments on that?

722
01:44:16,880 --> 01:44:23,360
» If not, somebody want to make a motion
to accept them?

723
01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:30,480
» Bruce. Thanks, Bruce. All those in
favor? Opposed? Carried. there.

724
01:44:27,440 --> 01:44:35,520
» Uh reserves are there for information
and we're moving on to administration

725
01:44:32,080 --> 01:44:39,199
and taxation. Monthly status report is
there. Any questions or comments on

726
01:44:37,199 --> 01:44:42,920
that?
Everything's going good.

727
01:44:43,040 --> 01:44:51,199
» And we have some RFDs for
is it battle river wershed first?

728
01:44:49,199 --> 01:44:57,600
» No, not on the sheet. Depends.
>> I've got the 2026 full army conference.

729
01:44:54,560 --> 01:45:03,920
» Okay, let's start there then.
So this is to authorize council and

730
01:45:00,159 --> 01:45:08,239
administration which would be myself and
Preston.

731
01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:15,760
» This is November 2nd.
>> It's from November 2nd to 5th.

732
01:45:12,239 --> 01:45:20,480
» Okay. Any questions or comments on that?
>> You want him to go?

733
01:45:19,040 --> 01:45:24,159
» I'll make a motion to go with option
one.

734
01:45:21,040 --> 01:45:27,440
» Thanks, Richard. All those in favor?
Opposed?

735
01:45:25,679 --> 01:45:32,000

>> That was moved by Bruce.

736

» Uh Richard. Yeah.
Okay. Now we do the Battle River Wershed

737
01:45:34,320 --> 01:45:37,320
Alliance.

738
01:45:38,239 --> 01:45:46,080
They're looking for funding based on our
uh population

739
01:45:42,480 --> 01:45:51,199
or 2026 227. The amounts are there. I
believe uh 20

740
01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:55,600
22427 for for the year.
>> Is this the same amount Kelly we've give

741
01:45:53,199 --> 01:45:58,480
over the other years? I believe it's
very similar. Yes,

742
01:45:56,880 --> 01:46:02,080
» it's up a hair, isn't it?
>> Yeah. Thanks.

743
01:46:00,239 --> 01:46:03,840
» It might be up a hair, but it's it's
>> pretty close.

744
01:46:02,480 --> 01:46:06,320
» Pretty well.
>> Are you Are you on this board, Bruce?

» Again this year?
>> And I went to their meet their meeting
