I mean this council had I had one that I went 189 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:04,480 to at the ECC but it wasn't really a meeting. It was a celebration 190 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:09,040 and I'm not going to count the mileage on that. 191 00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:15,680 And did you have something there that you need to bring up or not? 192 00:16:11,279 --> 00:16:22,079 » Uh I do. Yes sir. Okay. So the uh 193 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:30,959 » shortly short >> filter box at the uh treatment plant um 194 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:36,480 has froze again and busted. Um I've been uh working on trying to get some plans 195 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:40,560 together uh to have a building built. I apologize. I was going to send that to 196 00:16:37,759 --> 00:16:44,480 y'all today, but I got called and I had a dump truck. So I went and got a dump 197 00:16:42,079 --> 00:16:51,040 truck. just pulled in in it. I just got it back. Um but uh u we're going to have 198 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:57,839 to build a building around that because it keeps freezing and busting and uh 199 00:16:54,639 --> 00:17:02,560 that's uh it makes like three times and this time it completely busted the the 200 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:08,240 pump on the outside. So we're going to have to have it welded plus have the 201 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:12,480 pump fixed or get a new pump. So um we did approve it. It wasn't last year's 202 00:17:10,319 --> 00:17:19,679 budget or this this this current budget we did y'all did pass to get one bill, 203 00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:22,480 but uh I'm I'm working on that. So, I wanted to bring that up to y'all's 204 00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:26,480 attention. I'll be trying to get that put out to be in the middle of this so 205 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:30,559 y'all just be looking for an email hopefully 206 00:17:28,079 --> 00:17:34,720 tomorrow or Monday and I'll try to get that to y'all so y'all can look at it, 207 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:39,280 look over and there you can think of that I need to add to it before I put it 208 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:43,039 out. Okay. This is up at the 209 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:45,280 » This is the head works. >> No, 210 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:50,320 » that's freezing up. Or is it the >> No, this is the actual filter at the end 211 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:54,559 right into the disinfection. >> Okay. Cuz we had that stuff at the head 212 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:56,799 where freeze up and spill water and stuff all over the place, too. So, I 213 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:01,200 just >> I I actually need a building up there. 214 00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:07,120 Um, but I don't know exactly how that's 215 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:12,320 going to work because of the the way the head works. design, but uh I do need to 216 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:17,280 get a building built up there as well. Right now, we're running a blow heater 217 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:23,840 all day and all night when it's below freezing uh to keep the the headworks 218 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:29,760 off. So, we're we're having to come up here and fuel it up after after hours to 219 00:18:27,039 --> 00:18:34,880 keep it running through the night. But, um yeah, we will have to uh address that 220 00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:39,679 as well. And like I said, I just things I wanted 221 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,360 to talk to y'all about. But uh >> is this a design? 222 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:47,440 » Yes. Yes, sir. What what they told me is it 223 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:52,240 was supposed to get this cold cold enough to freeze anything like that in 224 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:55,760 Tennessee. So >> where do they live? 225 00:18:54,000 --> 00:19:01,120 » Yeah, that's what I >> We showed them. 226 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:05,039 » Yeah. Prove them wrong. But yeah, that's that's the reason why 227 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:08,400 they didn't put a building around either one of them because our temperatures 228 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:13,760 don't get cold enough to freeze anything like that they see. But there's several 229 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:19,360 things that freeze right now that should have been encased and I've got part of 230 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:23,440 it to take care of some of the valve, but 231 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:30,200 some of these like these buildings are going to be, you know, 30 40,000 232 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,200 at a time. So, 233 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:39,200 So, do we have enough do we have any design for the add 234 00:19:36,799 --> 00:19:42,000 additional stuff that we want to add to the plant so that we don't build a 235 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:46,559 building that's going to be have to be torn down because it's in the way of 236 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:52,880 » the new addition? >> I've not seen anything yet. 237 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:57,520 Bryant has talked to me just very briefly. We've done a little 238 00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:03,679 bit of walk through, but I don't think that they've got to the actual 239 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:08,480 make the datas of designing yet. I think they're mainly right now still trying to 240 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:13,120 get all the peritting and things done through the state to be to figure out 241 00:20:11,120 --> 00:20:16,640 what size we can actually build before we do. 242 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:20,080 » You may want to keep >> I just I'd hate to spend a whole lot of 243 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:23,280 money building a building around it and then have 244 00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:27,440 » pay to tear it down so that we can >> Yeah. rebuild it. 245 00:20:24,559 --> 00:20:32,559 » That that was one reason why I haven't done anything with the head works, but I 246 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:39,840 will say the filter um I'm planning for that. I'm making it um to where there's 247 00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:44,400 a a garage door on one side because the pad is already designed for an 248 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:49,679 additional filter to be put on when the new plant comes on. So, um, having that 249 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:54,320 building designed to be able to put that filter in there without messing the 250 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:58,880 building up or tearing the building up or anything like that. 251 00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:03,200 » So, I have I am planning for that and also where we can service them. It'll 252 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:09,280 have a door on each side where we can lift it up and if we had to, we can pull 253 00:21:06,159 --> 00:21:12,480 it out with forklift or whatever or work all the way around. 254 00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:16,320 » Okay. >> We need we don't need vote on that 255 00:21:14,159 --> 00:21:22,400 tonight. Wait, get the bids back. >> Yes, I I'll get the bids back. Um, 256 00:21:19,120 --> 00:21:28,400 unless y'all have to vote on business. >> I don't think we have to vote on 257 00:21:25,679 --> 00:21:32,000 » just just once we get the bid. >> Make sure you put it on paper. 258 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:36,400 » Yeah. Yeah, I'll do it. I'm gonna send it to all of you all first. That way you 259 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:40,799 can look at it and if there's anything that anybody sees that they might need 260 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:45,520 to add, think I let me know. Um, 261 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:49,360 If anybody wants to come down there and look at we walk through and talk about 262 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:55,840 it be great too. So, >> and then this is a work study slash 263 00:21:51,679 --> 00:21:59,919 regular meeting. Uh Aaron has he's fully licensed now to 264 00:21:58,159 --> 00:22:03,200 operate the sewer plant. >> Yes, sir. 265 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:07,760 » And I don't think we need Penny Southern anymore. I think in her contract we've 266 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:11,039 got to give her Did you have you seen her contract? 267 00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:17,840 » Uh so I met with Penny today. she could not um come up with her contract. Um she 268 00:22:15,039 --> 00:22:23,039 said that she might have it in an email with Jerry Kirkman, but she thought that 269 00:22:20,159 --> 00:22:31,120 u she had given it to him and she didn't have a copy of it handy. Um but she did 270 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:36,880 ask if if we would want to keep her on as an advisor. Um and she said, you 271 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:40,919 know, maybe for like $500 a month or something. Um, 272 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:49,039 I I'm going to leave that up to y'all. Um, 273 00:22:46,159 --> 00:22:52,559 I've tried to meet with her three months in a row and today was the first day 274 00:22:50,799 --> 00:22:58,799 that I've actually got to sit down with her. So, um, 275 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:02,080 I'm not getting a lot of advising at this time. 276 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,919 » We we're paying her what, $600 something dollars a week? 277 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:11,360 » 68250 a week. >> 68250 a week. And my opinion, we don't 278 00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:16,960 need her no more. And I would suggest we send her a 30-day 279 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:20,159 notice just to make sure because she thinks she has a has a 30-day notice. 280 00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:26,559 » She does. >> And uh 281 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:33,799 I would request that uh we vote to uh have Meredith or Aaron want a 30-day 282 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,799 notice termination. 283 00:23:34,559 --> 00:23:39,600 » No need to vote. mayor can just tell you to write the letter. You didn't know. 284 00:23:38,159 --> 00:23:43,600 » But what I was saying is we don't have anything else on the agenda. 285 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:47,039 » Yeah. I didn't know what you were doing when you suspend the rules. I lost. I 286 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,159 don't >> We don't need to vote on it. 287 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,799 » You don't need to vote. Just ask you to write your letter. 288 00:23:51,120 --> 00:23:58,679 » Is that all you got? >> That's it. 289 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,679 » What was 290 00:24:02,159 --> 00:24:09,280 that? >> That was water leak. 291 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:17,440 I have the world to find and we finally found it 292 00:24:13,120 --> 00:24:21,520 fourth day we worked on it finally. Um, one night we were we tore the whole 293 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:24,880 driveway up because I I knew it was in the driveway. I would have bet my 294 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:30,480 paycheck on it because I've dug it on both sides and 295 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:39,120 but once I got into it and found out on the lower side um it's the line is 296 00:24:35,919 --> 00:24:46,159 lower. So it was underwater on the upper side the line gradually went uphill um 297 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:49,679 and got shallower. It was 10 foot deep on the right hand side of the driveway 298 00:24:47,679 --> 00:24:53,279 and 5 foot deep on the left hand side of the driveway. So when I dug it up on the 299 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:58,080 left hand side of the driveway, there was no water around it. I had to dig two 300 00:24:55,200 --> 00:25:03,039 foot under the pipe to find water. But that was after I'd already destroyed the 301 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:10,080 driveway and um look for it all night till 3:00 in the morning. 302 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:18,720 So then we started digging further up. Um found a a wet spot in the in the 303 00:25:14,159 --> 00:25:23,360 ground. Thought that was it and dug that up. And You got down about six inches. 304 00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:29,600 It wouldn't wet anymore. Come back down the hill, dug some more, and then 305 00:25:27,279 --> 00:25:34,400 finally found it the third time after that. So, it was uh it's very hard to 306 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,480 find that >> water leaks can have water, 307 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:43,120 » especially on the side of a hill. >> Yeah. And it does funny stuff. And all 308 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:47,360 that road, I did not know this, but there's actually a road up there. About 309 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:52,559 10 foot underneath that road, there's black top. And it was hitting that black 310 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:56,480 top and following that black top all the way down, coming up at the ditch past 311 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:59,919 NCTC. But we didn't know there was road even 312 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:03,120 under there, but the road the water lines about that high off of the old 313 00:26:01,919 --> 00:26:07,520 road. >> They built the water line on top of the 314 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:10,880 road. I never had even knew there was another 315 00:26:09,279 --> 00:26:15,279 » but it's full of shop rock and everything so the water was traveling 316 00:26:13,039 --> 00:26:21,600 and where it's a duct to iron line it sounded a lot it sounds loud it's not 317 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:27,200 like PPC when you listening for a leak it's really loud and 318 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:34,240 I I like I said I would have bet money that I would found it that first night 319 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:39,440 but I didn't sorry about that >> that's all I Mary, you got something? 320 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:43,600 » I have a couple things. The budget was approved from office. We did get that 321 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:51,840 approval after the meeting on the second. And then something I'd like to 322 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:55,360 all thank you is budget meetings. We're going to have to have budget meetings 323 00:26:53,279 --> 00:27:02,080 this year after last year. 324 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:05,840 Y'all were going to input a lot. So, just been thinking about that. 325 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,440 coming up start. 326 00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:19,120 » All right. >> All right. Nobody got anything else. 327 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:22,159 I'll entertain that final motion. >> I'll make a motion. 328 00:27:20,559 --> 00:27:28,440 » Make a motion to adjurnn. It's not debatable. All in favor signify by 329 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,440 saying I. I.
