So, I do have one that came from a resident and the chief is well aware of 159 00:13:29,519 --> 00:13:39,360 this. So, uh one of our residents who inquired earlier about um the um shuttle 160 00:13:36,639 --> 00:13:42,880 tanker certification uh reached out as well after reading this report and was 161 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:46,320 hoping to hear a little bit from the chief about where we are in that 162 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:51,040 process. And so, um the chief is well aware that I'm going to ask this 163 00:13:47,839 --> 00:13:54,959 question. So, go ahead, Chief. >> Certainly. Thank you, mayor. Um yeah, 164 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:58,560 brief update on the tanker shuttle accredititation that we had mentioned 165 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:02,480 earlier in the year. Um so basically this uh tanker shuttle accredititation 166 00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:08,240 is a process by which uh the fire underwriter survey will um recognize the 167 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:16,480 capabilities of West Lincoln fire in their abilities to provide sustained 168 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:22,160 um rural water supply to uh fire events outside of our hydranted area. And 169 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:26,880 basically what it requires is that we're able to continue providing water at a 170 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:32,800 set rate for I think it's a couple of hours. Um it's not an outrageous flow 171 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:37,040 rate, but it does require sustained um tanker shuttling to make sure that the 172 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:40,160 water supplies are maintained. Um so there is some administrative work that's 173 00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:45,279 been going on in the background to make sure that that um that process is set up 174 00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:48,399 and we are anticipating carrying out the testing somewhere in the middle to end 175 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,480 of fall. >> Okay. Thank [clears throat] you very 176 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,440 much. I'm sure the resident will be pleased to know that it's in progress. 177 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,399 » It's in progress. >> Thank you, chief. Anything further for 178 00:14:54,959 --> 00:15:00,320 the chief? Shall we have him in the hot seat here? 179 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:04,040 » Okay. Thank you. The votes in front of you then shortly. 180 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:15,279 And that also carries. So, we have no reconsiderations and no notices of 181 00:15:12,959 --> 00:15:18,320 motion to resend. But we do have other business. And so I'm going to go to 182 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,920 members of council first to see if there's anything that you wish to report 183 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:27,560 on this evening. Councilor Mayach, anything? Okay. Councilor Bradick, 184 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,560 anything this evening? 185 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:32,880 » Thanks. >> Okay, please. 186 00:15:29,199 --> 00:15:38,000 » Um, I just wanted to acknowledge uh two staff directors from all departments. It 187 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:43,920 seems like a and the CEO. It seems like every other day I'd open my email and I 188 00:15:40,639 --> 00:15:50,079 would be hit with uh we got another grant funded and it's just something 189 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:55,199 that um hasn't really happened in the way that it has been happening in uh the 190 00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:59,680 last few months and I just want to acknowledge that and so thrilled to see 191 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:04,480 that there's some really hard work that's happening. you know, amounts can 192 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:10,320 be small, but it all adds up to a bigger picture and uh it just shows that uh 193 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:16,240 there's some hard work happening and uh you know, I want to acknowledge that. 194 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:22,000 » Um the one other thing as well too, the mayor and I were speaking uh before the 195 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:27,519 meeting was uh starting today. Um that uh just wanted to acknowledge that this 196 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:35,440 is the last meeting of our Were Stream guy Bruce. he is moving to uh somewhere 197 00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:40,800 far and beautiful and uh uh he's an integral part of uh getting these 198 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:46,160 meetings out to the community. Uh certainly keeps us uh looking good and 199 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:51,320 beautiful. Um fixing those cameras up and u we're going to miss you a lot, 200 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,320 Bruce. 201 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:57,360 » So I'll take my note that was coming later on and I too have something to say 202 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:00,480 Bruce before you finish. >> I forgot. I didn't want to but you 203 00:17:00,079 --> 00:17:02,959 cannot. >> No. Well, thank you for that. I was just 204 00:17:01,759 --> 00:17:06,160 I was waiting till just before adjournment, but we're all good. That's 205 00:17:04,559 --> 00:17:08,640 good. I'm glad that you mentioned that. Councelor Tbad, anything? 206 00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:12,799 » I'll just add that, you know, thank you, Bruce, for the year service. Right. So, 207 00:17:11,120 --> 00:17:17,679 again, I didn't know until just now, Council Brad said it. So, thanks for the 208 00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:21,199 uh years of service and uh the smiles that you show forward, either you're 209 00:17:19,199 --> 00:17:23,839 laughing at myself talking or what, but thank you very much. 210 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:27,760 » He's always smiling in that corner until he has a problem, then he's looking 211 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:31,280 scrambling, but okay. So, councelor, do you talk anything from you this evening? 212 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:35,440 » I guess I'll have to rely on councelor Tromba to tell me when my microphone's 213 00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:39,760 on then, Bruce, because it's always been you up until now and I thank you for it, 214 00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:44,799 but I'm more more importantly I think it's Newfoundland that you're going to 215 00:17:41,919 --> 00:17:48,400 and uh so our loss their gain. Thank you very much for your years of dedication 216 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:53,039 and uh we'll all see out on the rock someday. 217 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:57,039 » Okay, thank you. So I'm I'm going to leave mine till where it was going to be 218 00:17:54,960 --> 00:18:02,000 just before adjournment. Similar similar to what everybody else is saying, but we 219 00:17:59,039 --> 00:18:07,600 do have other business from from public works. Right. And so um can I go to you 220 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:12,320 director to provide the other portion? It isn't on your agenda. We're calling 221 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:18,080 it 18.2 and it is a verbal update from staff regarding um waste pickup related 222 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:21,200 to the flood. So go ahead, director. >> Yeah, thank you madam mayor. I just 223 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:26,880 wanted to provide this council with a verbal update on uh the enhanced waste 224 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:31,840 collection services that Niagara region is offering to municipalities for the 225 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:36,720 flood affected residents. Um so I just have some notes here. I want to go 226 00:18:33,039 --> 00:18:41,039 through it and and uh kind of explain what we're thinking with what we could 227 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:45,360 do for our for our residents. Uh through discussions with Niagara region, we've 228 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:48,320 been looking at enhanced waste collection services for residents 229 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:52,799 affected by the recent storm and the flooding. There has been a range of 230 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:58,480 approaches across Niagara. Some municipalities have provided uh flood 231 00:18:55,200 --> 00:19:03,520 related waste curbside collection. Um they've some municipalities have also 232 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:08,160 provided uh tipping fee relief at the regional landfills and others have 233 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:12,320 increase the number of bags that residents could put out on their regular 234 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:16,559 collection day. Uh for West Lincoln, one of our 235 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:20,320 challenges is that we don't currently have an accurate and final data the 236 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:25,200 number total number of properties affected uh as we're still collecting 237 00:19:22,799 --> 00:19:28,720 that data and sorting through that. Uh what we do know is that residents have 238 00:19:26,799 --> 00:19:33,200 been impacted across the townships and that includes both in the urban area and 239 00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:36,640 in the rural area. So administration would like to 240 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:41,200 implement an approach that's simple, accessible and available to residents 241 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:47,039 who have been dealing with flood related household waste rather than trying to 242 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:50,520 identify individual properties and in specific streets. 243 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:58,480 Uh so the approach we're considering is a combination of increasing regular 244 00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:04,160 household garbage limit from the two bag limit to five bags. Um that provides 245 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:09,200 residents with three additional bags for flood related household waste. And we're 246 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:12,480 considering starting that the week of their normal garbage collection which 247 00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:17,440 would be the next the next garbage collection week is as of the week of 248 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:23,360 August 17th. So, not this week, but the following 249 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:27,280 week. Um, and we also want to provide tipping fee relief at the Niagara Reg 250 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:31,520 Niagara Row 12 Waste Management Facility. Um, we would like to start 251 00:20:29,919 --> 00:20:36,080 that during the same week, the week of August 17th. We believe this could 252 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:41,280 provide a practical way for residents to dispose of damaged whole house u 253 00:20:38,799 --> 00:20:44,720 household materials. Um, in order to provide, there's some 254 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,520 costs associated with those services. So, I'm just going to kind of go through 255 00:20:45,919 --> 00:20:52,000 that now. uh for the curbside collection in the 256 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:58,080 extra bag. Um curbside collection is from Tuesday to Friday. So the week of 257 00:20:54,480 --> 00:21:01,919 August 17th, the region has u advised us that there would be a cost to the town 258 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:06,400 to the township. Uh this this additional cost is for the 259 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:10,159 additional collection and to dispose of the waste. 260 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:13,440 And we made some assumptions like how much trucks we would need and how much 261 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:18,480 time it would take to pick up all this extra waste. 262 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:22,159 And that's estimated as well. And we had to also estimate how much tonnage uh 263 00:21:20,559 --> 00:21:26,640 we're thinking people would be putting out. 264 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:30,960 So for the cost for the extra trucks, we're assuming three extra trucks, 10 265 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:37,440 hours a day. Uh that would be approximately uh $24,000 for the week 266 00:21:33,919 --> 00:21:42,559 plus the disposal cost for the extra tonnage of material is probably another 267 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:48,960 $7,000 per week. So the estimated cost just for that extra curbside collection 268 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:52,480 is around $31,000 per week. And the cost associated with waving the 269 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:56,799 tipping fees at the landfill for a oneweek period. It's all based on 270 00:21:55,120 --> 00:22:00,240 estimated tonnages. So based on what what the region has seen with other 271 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:07,360 municipalities, we're estimating around um 272 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:12,880 you know 25 tons per day for a 5day period would be equivalent to around 273 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:17,280 $9,000 a week. So if we provide those two services, 274 00:22:14,799 --> 00:22:20,880 the estimate would be around $40,000 a week to provide that service to our 275 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:26,320 residents. Um so the intent is to provide an 276 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:31,200 equitable form of assistance to residents who have been affected by 277 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:35,039 flooding. Um that's that's the approach that administration is considering and 278 00:22:33,679 --> 00:22:38,159 just wanted to share that information with council. 279 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:41,880 » Okay. Thank you. So questions or comments to the director? 280 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:47,360 » Start with you. >> Thank you madam mayor to the director. 281 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:51,360 How do we are they checking licenses? Cuz the landfill, 282 00:22:49,919 --> 00:22:56,400 anybody can show up to the landfill and say it's my week and I'm dumping and I'm 283 00:22:54,240 --> 00:23:01,919 going to, you know, clean up my house. >> Yeah. Through the merit account, they 284 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:06,159 will be asking for uh licenses and ID if if you go to the landfill in order to 285 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:08,799 wave the tipping fees. Okay. So through >> and they're also coming from Lincoln to 286 00:23:07,919 --> 00:23:13,360 landfill [snorts] on road 12, right? So that's 287 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:17,120 they need to show proof as well. So is this is through you madam mayor what 288 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,240 doesn't the director is this a joint thing we're doing with other mun 289 00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:24,480 neighboring municipalities or is it just our own 290 00:23:22,159 --> 00:23:28,720 » so I don't do you want to respond to that I can respond probably will stick 291 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,480 to I don't know who the question goes to so anyway 292 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:34,000 » yeah yeah through the merit accounts for trendetta there's there's there has been 293 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:39,600 about six municipalities that have been taken advantage of this service um 294 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:43,919 there's six of them um so if we wanted to join then we would be the seventh 295 00:23:42,159 --> 00:23:47,440 right that's taking part of that. So every every municipality the region is 296 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:51,600 offering this service to each municipality. 297 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:57,200 So there's se six municipalities Lincoln, Grimby, 298 00:23:54,080 --> 00:24:02,000 St. Catherine's, Neran Lake, Niagara Falls, and Thorald that are currently 299 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:05,280 offering this enhanced service for flood related damage. So through you, Madame 300 00:24:03,919 --> 00:24:08,880 Mayor, I do know a few residents that were affected from the flood like 301 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:14,240 massively, especially around the grassy area in my my ward, but I don't know if 302 00:24:11,679 --> 00:24:17,679 it's the whole of West Lincoln. So >> we have in town residents. We have some 303 00:24:15,919 --> 00:24:20,159 residents outside from other other parts, other wards that we've heard from 304 00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:23,360 as well. Okay. >> But we don't have great data yet. So 305 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:27,520 we're still encouraging residents who have suffered flood damage to make sure 306 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,919 that they report it because we are trying to collect that data. 307 00:24:28,559 --> 00:24:32,559 » So how's the messaging through Madame Mayor CE or director getting out to the 308 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,559 residents? That's going to be the week of August 17th after we leave here 309 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,520 today. >> Well, that's a really good question 310 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,880 because I presume that a press release will go tomorrow and then we'll be 311 00:24:39,039 --> 00:24:44,559 hitting social media and then it will be word of mouth. But residents online are 312 00:24:42,799 --> 00:24:47,840 already asking what about West Lincoln? You know, what's West Lincoln doing? So, 313 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:52,640 I'm sure they're anticipating some kind of a response. 314 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:55,919 » So, it's free dumping for a week next week. 315 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:58,960 » Flood related. Flood related. So, you know that. 316 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:01,600 » Wow. How do you know it's how >> how do we know like what's flood related 317 00:25:01,039 --> 00:25:04,320 and not? >> Well, it's [snorts] probably going to be 318 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,520 wet and mildwy and I'm sure that they will be checking before they admire 319 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,360 » going by the honor system is what I hope residents will be doing. So, that's what 320 00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:13,039 I'm >> Well, we hope so. We hope that people 321 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,840 won't take advantage of it just >> for the sake of taking advantage. 322 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:20,720 » Yep. >> Okay. Councelor Bradick, 323 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:28,240 » just a little add-on to uh councelor Trenbetta. I get I would hope that um 324 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:33,679 the communication that goes out will um you know encourage our residents to be 325 00:25:31,919 --> 00:25:38,240 uh thoughtful about what they're putting out and that it is truly flood related. 326 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:45,520 So it does keep the cost down to a minimum uh for the municipality that uh 327 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:51,760 certainly you know $40,000 as we all know is a huge part uh hit on our tax 328 00:25:48,799 --> 00:25:56,960 levy. So, uh, I'm hoping the social media wording can, uh, um, capture that 329 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,600 a little bit. >> Well, and and some of the 330 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:03,679 municipalities, of course, that have been harder hit also were hidden to the 331 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:07,440 point where they were able to declare a state of emergency. We weren't at that 332 00:26:05,279 --> 00:26:11,120 level. And so, there will be no other relief. It will be it will be our cost 333 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:15,279 for sure if we're providing this to our residents. Councelor May 334 00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:21,120 » through you, Madame Mayor, to uh our director. How do they determine the need 335 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:25,200 in terms of trucks and how much garbage additional they're going to pick up? 336 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:31,760 Like how do they come up with those numbers as to what they actually need? 337 00:26:29,679 --> 00:26:37,919 » Uh through the merit council made Chuck. Um, as I mentioned in my comments, it's 338 00:26:35,039 --> 00:26:44,080 hard for us to gauge that, but uh, since the region in discussion with their uh, 339 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:47,679 waste management service provider and they have been doing it, they have been 340 00:26:45,919 --> 00:26:52,159 doing this for the past couple weeks and other municipalities. So, they're just 341 00:26:49,679 --> 00:26:56,799 kind of giving us some uh, benchmark estimates of how much extra trucks we 342 00:26:54,640 --> 00:27:03,039 would need and how much estimated tonnage uh, this service will bring in. 343 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:08,000 So it they do have some benchmarks just based on the last week or two of service 344 00:27:05,039 --> 00:27:14,000 in other municipalities. Um again right now they're all estimates but uh Niagara 345 00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:20,000 region has provided us with those types of figures based on their past 346 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:25,120 experience over the last week or two. >> Okay. Anything further from anyone? 347 00:27:22,159 --> 00:27:30,799 Councelor Chop. Madame Mayor, uh uh on the idea of of the flood issues, 348 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:36,720 certainly [clears throat] there was um I've received a number of of emails, no 349 00:27:33,679 --> 00:27:41,919 texts, and uh uh a couple of phone calls, and I know that councelor uh 350 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:47,520 Bradick and I received a couple of very worried people asking how they would 351 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:53,200 find out whether or not could we write a letter to NPEI since uh that would maybe 352 00:27:50,880 --> 00:28:00,720 be the best place to get awareness of any grants by by hydro that would offer 353 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:06,880 equipment that would be battery operated for sump pumps. Uh with the fact we were 354 00:28:04,399 --> 00:28:12,559 we had the downpour but then had a blackout at the same time. A number of 355 00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:18,159 people have uh have indicated that it was worrisome and some of these people 356 00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:22,799 are of age where taking a bucket to the sump pole and carrying it outside may 357 00:28:20,159 --> 00:28:28,640 not be their number one activity. uh but it there have been grants out there from 358 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:32,240 the util from utility companies or from hydro one about such things. We just 359 00:28:31,039 --> 00:28:37,039 wondered if there was anything out there if our staff could take a quick look and 360 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:41,440 report back to us so that uh the community at large might know if there 361 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:45,279 was a any more incidents like the one we've just experienced. 362 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,000 » Okay. >> So I don't need a motion. And I was just 363 00:28:46,799 --> 00:28:51,360 thinking if stack would take that as direction and perhaps come back to us 364 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:55,200 » and the CEO would like to speak next too because we had some other inquiries 365 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:58,000 about about backup valves and that kind of 366 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:01,760 » floor valves and stuff. I did have some I did have I I missed my p point on 367 00:29:00,399 --> 00:29:03,840 other business that I promised the chamber I would do. So if you could just 368 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:08,080 go back >> I'll come back. We're still we're still 369 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:11,200 there. So I'll come back to you. Okay. Mr. CEO. 370 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,960 » Uh thank you Madam Mayor and and through you to councelor Shichuk. we will uh 371 00:29:13,279 --> 00:29:20,559 we'll get in touch with NPI and see if there's anything through them uh that 372 00:29:16,799 --> 00:29:23,840 might uh help residents with relief on uh the need to do some some battery 373 00:29:22,159 --> 00:29:28,640 backups on some pumps and whatnot. We're also taking a look uh through the 374 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:35,679 buildings division uh at a potential for a program on uh back backwater flow 375 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:39,279 backflow valve prevention. I keep I keep missing the mark on the name of these 376 00:29:37,279 --> 00:29:42,880 things, but but uh buildings is going to be bringing a report to see if there's a 377 00:29:40,799 --> 00:29:47,039 subsidy program that we can uh provide to uh residents with older homes. Uh 378 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:51,120 newer homes are built with these in it, but it's an important um mechanism to 379 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:55,919 prevent the storm water backup in the house. Um the other item I just wanted 380 00:29:53,840 --> 00:30:00,240 to to to raise to council, the amount of uh dollars that we're talking about is 381 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:03,840 outside of uh administration's uh delegated authority to make a budget 382 00:30:01,679 --> 00:30:07,679 amendment. So, we would be looking for a resolution from council tonight and I 383 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:12,640 believe Mr. Paleob has some wording prepared just to get uh a resolution in 384 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:17,120 place that this is a on on the waste pickup the additional pickup. Yes. 385 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:21,360 » Thank you. That was my next Well, thank you for the lead in. Mr. Clerk, I we did 386 00:30:19,919 --> 00:30:25,039 discuss today whether it was just direction from staff and or whether we 387 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,679 needed a resolution, but but based on the amount. Thank you for that. Go 388 00:30:26,559 --> 00:30:30,880 ahead, Mr. Clerk. >> Uh through the mayor, uh I'll read the 389 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:34,799 resolution as follows. that administration be directed to implement 390 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:39,039 a one-time only enhanced collection service increasing from three bags to 391 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:44,799 five bags for the week of August 17th, 2026 in which the cost to be absorbed 392 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:50,080 through the year-end surplus >> doesn't include the tipping 393 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:53,760 » uh through the chair weekend include the tipping uh portion. um that 394 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:57,760 administration be directed to temporarily wave the tipping uh fees at 395 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,640 local landfill sites during the week of August 17th, the same as the first for 396 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,360 West Lincoln residents. >> Thank you. Because some people are 397 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:06,480 actually doing their cleanup and things on their own and so need to be able to 398 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,000 waste. >> Yeah. 399 00:31:08,399 --> 00:31:13,679 » And it does say flood related in there somewhere. Can we see the resolution 400 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:17,039 please? >> Okay. If there's a way to actually see 401 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:22,039 it and then we can look at whether that's really what we're looking at, 402 00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:22,039 that would be better. 403 00:31:23,279 --> 00:31:28,840 Sorry to add that extra element to your workload there, but 404 00:31:40,159 --> 00:31:46,240 » okay. So, there's no way to display it without opening the vote. So, we need to 405 00:31:43,679 --> 00:31:51,919 have a mover, >> councelor Trombetta, and a seconder, 406 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:56,960 councelor Chich, and then when it comes up, we have an opportunity to look at it 407 00:31:54,399 --> 00:31:59,679 before you vote and make sure that it is actually what it is that we want it to 408 00:31:58,559 --> 00:32:04,960 say. >> I think the social media characteriz 409 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:08,760 what's going on there for this motion. So, this motion, 410 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:15,519 » it's passed. Then it's up to the social media madam mayor. 411 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,519 » Well, we want to make sure that we're giving proper direction though to that. 412 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,720 So, >> would you like to 413 00:32:20,399 --> 00:32:24,559 » um >> Yeah. 414 00:32:23,279 --> 00:32:27,039 » Well, I think we're ready to open the vote.

Okay. 416 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,640 » I think we just need to vote. >> Well, let's see it. 417 00:32:31,039 --> 00:32:37,039 » We still have a chance to amend it before we vote. So, don't vote just yet, 418 00:32:35,279 --> 00:32:43,767 but look at it to see if that's what you want. 419 00:32:39,919 --> 00:32:43,767 » I voted. Oops. [laughter] 420 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,320 » Okay. So, it's definitely and it does say affected by flooding. So, we're 421 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,320 good. I think >> remove your 422 00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:55,360 » It's Sorry, It is [clears throat] It 423 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,480 is a broad statement because it doesn't really classify that we want that honor 424 00:32:57,039 --> 00:33:02,240 system in there. So, maybe we should have 425 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:05,600 » Oh, you agreeing with what I'm saying? >> No, you bouncing that back at me. The 426 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:09,200 resolution doesn't need that characterization, but we do need to make 427 00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:12,559 sure that it's related to flooding and that it's that week and that exactly 428 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:17,200 what the limit is. So, >> it does say flooding in the motion on 429 00:33:13,919 --> 00:33:19,679 both both recitals. So, it's just we hope that people will be the honor 430 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,720 system. >> Okay. 431 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,919 » Okay. >> So, councelor may 432 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:27,200 » she has a question. >> She has a question. 433 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:31,519 » Take my question. >> Would you like to give your own question 434 00:33:29,279 --> 00:33:37,760 for her, please? Councelor Bradick. >> Microphone. 435 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:42,640 I only ever put out one. Thanks, Bruce. I only ever put out one bag of garbage, 436 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:48,640 but I believe the limit is two bags every two weeks, not three. 437 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:53,840 » Two to five. Clarify that. >> Yes, through the mayor. Uh, councelor 438 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:59,039 Bradick is right. Your limit is two bags by weekly. So, the enhanced service 439 00:33:57,279 --> 00:34:03,600 would be five bags for the week. So, you're increasing the two bag limit to 440 00:34:00,799 --> 00:34:07,039 by three bags to five bags. I'm not sure what the motion says there. 441 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:11,599 » So, it does say increasing from three bags to five bags for the week. 442 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:18,800 » I can change that. >> And so, so next week is a garbage week. 443 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:22,639 So, um >> two, 444 00:34:19,839 --> 00:34:26,320 » yeah, >> last week, this week, this week that's 445 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:30,560 coming is not garbage. Next week is garbage again. So, Do we have 446 00:34:28,879 --> 00:34:33,839 » Okay, so it's been corrected to say two bags to five bags. It does indicate the 447 00:34:32,720 --> 00:34:37,560 week. Is there anything further about that that we don't like? 448 00:34:37,679 --> 00:34:42,720 » Councelor May, is this your own question this time? 449 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:45,760 » It was kind of like I was trying to clarify before, but anyways, 450 00:34:44,639 --> 00:34:50,800 » you need your microphone. >> It was a good question. Um, no, I'm 451 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:55,359 okay. Thanks. I'm fine. [laughter] I'm fine. 452 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:59,879 » Okay, then please vote now. I think this has been a 453 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:07,599 Okay, generally speaking, we want to help our residents where we can. So, um, 454 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:12,560 and that carries. So, I'm going to go back to the first 455 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:16,000 member of council other business because councelor Chich realized that she had 456 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:20,560 neglected something.
