1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,800
See
if everybody's here. I got

2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:14,920
all right. Looks like everybody's here.
6 p.m. We're ready to roll. So for those

3
00:00:10,719 --> 00:00:14,920
who'd like to join us in the gle

4
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:24,080
to the flag of the United States of
America and to the republic for which it

5
00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:27,599
stands, one nation under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice

6
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:31,160
for all.
>> All right. Thank you. Y

7
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:36,399
» present.
>> Alder

8
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,840
» present.
>> Alder Keane

9
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,600
» present.

» present.
>> Alder Mat

» present.
>> Alder Wilson

12
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:49,320
» present. We have a
changes to the agenda.

13
00:00:50,239 --> 00:00:56,000
All right. Before we get started, I
wanted to uh just kind of explain a

14
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:59,760
couple things because I know that people
that aren't involved with politics don't

15
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,479
understand why we do some of the things
that we do. So, I thought it would just

16
00:01:01,039 --> 00:01:09,840
be easy to clarify and, you know, say
the citizen input is not a public forum.

17
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:14,240
It's not where we have questions and
answer sessions. It's just a a a point

18
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:18,640
where they can where a citizen can take
a couple minutes to give us your ideas,

19
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:24,000
your thoughts, your concerns, and that
you can't really you can't legally make

20
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:28,799
that a public forum as far as Q&A
sessions and debates. Those things

21
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:32,079
should happen beforehand before meeting
is when [clears throat] we should be

22
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:35,840
having those conversations. So, I just
didn't want everyone to think cuz I know

23
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:40,079
we had a meeting recently where some
people just assumed we were ignoring

24
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:44,960
them because we weren't answering.
there's a reason we weren't. Um, and

25
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:51,360
also for those of you that maybe have
sent all the aldermen an email and you

26
00:01:49,119 --> 00:01:56,640
include all the alderman and they don't
respond, it's not because we're ignoring

27
00:01:53,840 --> 00:02:02,880
you. It's because
that would be conducting public a public

28
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:06,240
meeting without the agenda
notification. [clears throat] Paul can

29
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:10,319
probably explain it a lot better than I
can. So, what I would suggest is since

30
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:16,319
you already have everyone's email is
just um email everybody individually and

31
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,480
say, "Hey, Troy, what do you think about
block statements or whatever it is you

32
00:02:18,239 --> 00:02:24,080
might want to talk about?" So, I just
wanted to kind of explain a couple

33
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:30,319
things so people can think the ultimate
ignoring them. So, and after the meeting

34
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:36,640
tonight, if you want to stick around and
talk about whatever, I'll be here. You

35
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:41,760
can talk about whatever you want to. So,
All right,

36
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:49,239
we'll get to moving then.
Consent agenda.

37
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:49,239
» Oh, I'm sorry. Take a roll, have we?

38
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,160
» All right.

39
00:02:56,851 --> 00:03:01,200
[laughter]
>> I have a first. I have a second. All in

40
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,560
favor?
>> Any opposed?

41
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:09,319
The agenda's passed.
>> All right. Item number four, citizen

42
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:09,319
input.

43
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:16,519
» I'm thinking about I'm thinking about
two different things. Consent agenda.

44
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,519
Any questions on it?

45
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:22,560
» I'll make a motion. We approve the
consent agenda as written.

46
00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:27,040
» We have a first. I have a second. All in
favor? I. Any opposed? The consent

47
00:03:26,239 --> 00:03:33,360
agenda.
>> All right. Now the

48
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:37,200
citizen input. If anybody would like to
step forward and talk, feel free to do

49
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:41,440
so. Just give us your name and your
address. And you got a couple minutes to

50
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:46,239
tell what's on your mind. My name is Pam
Long. I live on Osage Street. Um myself

51
00:03:44,799 --> 00:03:52,080
and a few neighbors were here a few
months back about the traffic on Osage.

52
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:59,280
I just want to thank you all personally
for um listening, for responding. We

53
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:03,439
have I've seen actions today. They've
changed stop signs. I talked to one of

54
00:04:01,439 --> 00:04:07,680
the public works directors there.
There's changes that's going to happen

55
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:12,560
with no sage and I personally thank each
of you um for helping get us the traffic

56
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,720
slow down.
>> Well, thank you. Appreciate the positive

57
00:04:14,239 --> 00:04:18,599
input.
>> Yeah. Thank you.

58
00:04:15,519 --> 00:04:18,599
» All right.

59
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:24,600
Anyone else?
Yes, sir.

60
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,863
» You don't have to run. [laughter]
You look like you do enough of that

61
00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:34,639
already.
>> [clears throat]

62
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:39,040
» Hello. My name is uh my name is Ian
Powers. I live over on Canterbury Lane

63
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:43,600
right here in town. Um I made it a point
to come out this evening to do the exact

64
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:48,720
same thing that uh the last lady was up
here to do, which is to thank um for

65
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:54,320
listening to the people and the concerns
that we had putting up with what was the

66
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:58,400
last world alderman's meeting. Um I
don't think that we have the turnout we

67
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:03,440
would have had um if we hadn't heard
something earlier. um which I thank you

68
00:05:01,199 --> 00:05:09,199
for for taking into consideration um not
only you but the chief and the

69
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:12,800
department um for you guys particularly.
I think that

70
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:17,840
what was asked of you might have been
considered hard from a a value

71
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:21,919
standpoint
but I thank you for considering it

72
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:26,320
nonetheless and choosing the course of
action that you did. Um, I came in here

73
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:31,600
last time and I said we all support you
and I fully trust you and I fully trust

74
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:36,960
our police. This confirms and supports
that. Um, I want to just say that before

75
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:42,800
I step off here and give you back the
time. I just want to say that I did

76
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:47,120
outline who the financial supporters at
Flock. I went into some very, very

77
00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:51,039
in-depth details. [clears throat] You
can find them in the citizens group on

78
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:56,400
Facebook. Okay, I'm not going to bring
that up, but I am going to say all of

79
00:05:53,280 --> 00:06:00,720
these technologies um there isn't a lot
of oversight. There isn't a lot of

80
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,720
protections for data citizens. And a lot
of these technologies are being

81
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:08,960
financially supported by people who do
not share traditional values that

82
00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:14,160
everyone in this room shares. My only
request is going forward any kind of

83
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:19,840
surveillance systems, any kind of
digital tools that aid you in policing,

84
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:23,919
please do the due diligence and look at
who's funding these things because I can

85
00:06:21,919 --> 00:06:27,199
assure you a lot of the people in
Silicon Valley do not share our

86
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:32,400
interests and our values. The only thing
they want is our money and they want

87
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:37,360
access to the systems of uh of
controlling populations. So, thank you.

88
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:43,539
Do the research and continue being the
uh the that I know you are. Thank you.

89
00:06:39,919 --> 00:06:43,539
» Thank you. [applause and laughter]

90
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:51,240
Anyone else?
Yes, ma'am.

91
00:06:52,319 --> 00:07:00,960
» Hi, my name is Dion. I live three and I
live in Bullard about 10 years the

92
00:06:59,039 --> 00:07:06,319
district. I moved here to the city about
a year ago. And I just want to say thank

93
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:11,280
you to all of you in advance for the
flock vote and thank you for changing

94
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:15,199
your stance on flock. Like they've said,
we thought that it would be a very

95
00:07:13,039 --> 00:07:19,919
different day today that we have and now
that we can say thank you and stand up

96
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:23,759
here. Um
this past month, I think I've seen more

97
00:07:22,319 --> 00:07:28,479
involvement in the city government with
the block and I think a lot of other

98
00:07:25,919 --> 00:07:32,319
people are trying to get more involved.
And so I want to use my time here today

99
00:07:30,479 --> 00:07:37,840
to just kind of give you some ideas that
I have maybe a way we could get this

100
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:44,639
momentum to keep going and keep getting
some more support for you guys and more

101
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:49,840
citizen uh support for city government.
So, um,

102
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:53,840
uh, some of my thoughts are maybe you
could have dinner with the alderman,

103
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:58,639
maybe like one or two. I know you can't
leave groups bigger than that. Um, come

104
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:02,160
here at like 5:00 before, you know,
you're already supposed to be here, so

105
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:06,479
you don't have to make another, uh, stop
in your week. Um, and then just invite

106
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:12,080
people here. Maybe we all bring our
dinner and we we have it catered in. Um,

107
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:16,000
and just let us get to know you and
maybe less formal, right? and we can get

108
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:22,080
to know you on a more personal level.
Um, we feel like friends and um, one

109
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:28,800
other thing I'd like to suggest is some
more polls on your Facebook. So, I think

110
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:33,760
even maybe with this block um, situation
that we had, if you would have posted on

111
00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:38,159
your Facebook like, hey, how do you guys
view block? Then the citizens might not

112
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,760
have felt like they had to email all of
you individually. their voice could have

113
00:08:39,680 --> 00:08:47,760
been heard by just answering yes or no
from your Facebook page.

114
00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:54,240
Um, I do think we need a better way to
contact you than via email. Um, I know

115
00:08:51,839 --> 00:08:57,279
at least Carol I know your email is not
working for you.

116
00:08:55,760 --> 00:09:00,640
» Um,
I think there was one other is not

117
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:04,720
working. So, if we're trying to give you
guys input and we don't have a way to

118
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:10,720
email you, then I don't know another way
to contact you. Um, and actually you

119
00:09:08,399 --> 00:09:16,959
were talking about we need to email them
individually. Um, maybe make that note

120
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:20,480
there on the page where we we find their
emails because I think I went to the

121
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:26,240
page to find emails. [clears throat] So,
if it says like you must email them

122
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:30,240
individually, that might be the spot.
Um,

123
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:35,360
and then something else I've learned as
I've gotten involved is that we have a

124
00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:40,640
lot of talented people at Willard.
Um, of course that's obvious, but as you

125
00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:45,279
guys start having different issues that
you want to address in the year, maybe

126
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:49,360
putting together like small committees
or like small groups of people that can

127
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:54,080
do the research for you and people that
are like interested in it, but they'll

128
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:59,680
go above and beyond and find
you don't have to spend your individual

129
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:04,399
time researching it.
And um the last question I did have um

130
00:10:02,959 --> 00:10:08,880
because when I was doing some of the
research I I know that we can't

131
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:14,000
deliberate with the board of alderments
but I my understanding was you can still

132
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:19,680
answer a yes and no question. So my
question was um where in the the

133
00:10:17,519 --> 00:10:23,720
sunshine hall did you see that you can't
answer like simple questions?

134
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:38,720
lawyer's advice.
>> Wait, what? Oh, okay. So, it's not a

135
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:43,440
specific
during public input, but you know,

136
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:48,800
before the meeting. I mean, I do before
the meeting or it's just a yes or no

137
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:52,160
question. Just hit us up and say, "Hey,
here's my question."

138
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:56,640
» Okay. So, it's not a specific law. It's
just your opinion of what they should

139
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,640
do.

140
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:03,279
lawyers have
opinions about what the different

141
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:06,880
interpretations of what laws say and do.
So

142
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:11,040
» if our lawyer says this is what I'm
suggesting, then that's what we'll do.

143
00:11:09,839 --> 00:11:15,440
» I don't want to inhibit anybody, you
know, from

144
00:11:12,399 --> 00:11:19,360
» asking questions, you know, before
after.

145
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:23,827
» Okay. Thank you guys for your input.
Thank you for um listening to that.

146
00:11:21,519 --> 00:11:28,839
» Thank you.
>> [applause]

147
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,839
» Anyone else?

148
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:39,548
» Hopefully my voice doesn't shake this
time. Hi, I'm Angela. I live on Hughes

149
00:11:37,279 --> 00:11:42,959
Road. I'm fairly new to Willard and
[clears throat] I just wanted to come up

150
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:47,120
and piggyback off what Dion was saying
about I think this is a this block

151
00:11:44,959 --> 00:11:52,000
business is a great opportunity in
Willard to turn the page and move

152
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:57,839
forward as a community. I know there's
been some division and kind of some

153
00:11:53,760 --> 00:12:01,040
chaos in the history of Willard and I
don't think people in Willard are uh

154
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:05,519
apathetic. I think they're a little
scared to get involved because there has

155
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:09,279
been a history of some drama and I think
most people have enough of that in their

156
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:12,959
lives and just I think at the end of the
day we all want to feel a part of the

157
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:18,560
community, feel connected to our
neighbors and feel safe. And the enemy

158
00:12:15,839 --> 00:12:22,079
isn't in this room. It's it's not you
know we we all want the same things for

159
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:25,920
our family whether it be the kids or
dogs.

160
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:31,680
Um but I just wanted to come up and say
thank you for your time. Thank you for

161
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:35,920
changing your mind. We appreciate it.
And like I said I just think this is a

162
00:12:33,519 --> 00:12:40,160
great opportunity because Willard has so
much potential and right now we get to

163
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:44,560
decide what Willard looks like moving
forward. a strong infrastructure,

164
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:50,720
responsible growth, but we have to like
loosen some control and let people be

165
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:54,399
heard and let that happen. And I think
we could use this as opportunity to make

166
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:57,493
that happen.
>> Thank you so much.

167
00:12:55,519 --> 00:12:59,513
» Thank you.
[applause]

168
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,880
» Anybody else?

169
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:15,120
» Good evening. My name is Tyler
41. I don't think I can add anything

170
00:13:12,079 --> 00:13:19,279
else that no one has said this evening
already, but because I feel I may have

171
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:25,040
been a proverbial thorn in some of your
sides over the last two months, I felt I

172
00:13:21,839 --> 00:13:30,160
would be remiss to also not address you
publicly at the meeting and say thank

173
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:35,760
you for listening to our concerns. Thank
you for fielding Sunshine requests.

174
00:13:33,279 --> 00:13:40,880
Thank you for being gracious. Um, and
specifically those of you who reached

175
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:44,399
out to me um, and interacted with me
that way. I appreciate it a lot. I know

176
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:49,760
a lot of us appreciate your time that
you with us and not just meeting with

177
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:54,560
us, but meeting with the rest of the
community as well to see what the

178
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:58,120
overall
was. So,

179
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:05,560
Anybody
else?

180
00:14:08,079 --> 00:14:14,160
» Hello, my name is Rebecca. Um, I'm a
resident of Springfield. I've got

181
00:14:12,639 --> 00:14:18,240
students in the Willer community, been a
member of the community for my whole

182
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:23,199
life. I just want to reiterate what the
others have said tonight. Thank you guys

183
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:26,399
for listening. Thank you, Chief, for for
hearing the people.

184
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,920
that speaks a lot [laughter] to your
character to be able to say, "Hey, maybe

185
00:14:28,399 --> 00:14:34,079
this wasn't the right choice for the
community. Let's do something

186
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:38,639
different." And I I appreciate that
tremendously from you. I I appreciate

187
00:14:36,079 --> 00:14:44,320
the board taking the time to to listen
to everybody and and I hope that in the

188
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:49,279
future if there are more conversations
about other sources of surveillance like

189
00:14:47,199 --> 00:14:53,519
flock under a different name that you
all will remember what the community has

190
00:14:51,839 --> 00:14:58,639
said and how we feel [clears throat]
about this and and just remember that in

191
00:14:55,920 --> 00:15:05,120
future conversations and just really
thank you guys. I appreciate you.

192
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:09,199
[applause] Anybody
else?

193
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,760
» All right. I just want to say on the
record that I think it's a testament to

194
00:15:11,199 --> 00:15:18,079
the people that all the groups that I
met with personally and the individuals

195
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:21,639
I've met with, all those meetings are
always very respectful,

196
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:28,320
very professional. So
I know several of the alderman have sat

197
00:15:26,959 --> 00:15:33,519
in on some of those meetings too and
they echoed the same thing. So we just

198
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:39,839
want to thank everybody for their
efforts involved. So thank you.

199
00:15:37,839 --> 00:15:45,000
» All right, I'll hold this as an input
session and we'll move to item number

200
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,000
five.

201
00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:54,959
Go ahead.
>> Okay, so so I met with uh

202
00:15:52,399 --> 00:15:58,800
Haley and
the girls, [snorts] the guy on the

203
00:15:57,759 --> 00:16:07,040
chief,
>> Brandon. Yeah. And uh and we had a great

204
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:12,720
conversation, too. And uh I told him
that I was going to recommend

205
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:20,399
I respected your opinion, but my gosh,
man, as a police agency who's ripped the

206
00:16:16,079 --> 00:16:25,440
reward of of solvent crime using law,
it's like

207
00:16:22,639 --> 00:16:30,079
I had to recommend it.
And uh so to go to go back in the

208
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:35,279
beginning we we presented this to the
board uh two and a half years ago they

209
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:42,000
listened and they inquired but in the
end they said show me the money. So last

210
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:46,959
year when we got the Blue Shield grant,
it's like, well, we're showering the

211
00:16:43,279 --> 00:16:53,040
money. And so it was like, let's do this
like like Springfield and like Ozark and

212
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:59,040
like Nixon Republic and Ashro,
you know,

213
00:16:54,720 --> 00:17:04,799
and so I had no idea
that it would come with all this uh

214
00:17:03,199 --> 00:17:08,959
hostility.
I mean, I was shocked. In fact, some of

215
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:13,520
it happened while I was away in
recovery. It was like, man, I hope

216
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:17,520
Shannon takes care of all this before I
get back,

217
00:17:15,199 --> 00:17:22,079
you know.
So, but uh that's not what happened. So,

218
00:17:21,461 --> 00:17:29,039
[clears throat]
so when it came down to it,

219
00:17:25,679 --> 00:17:32,960
I felt like I I had to hear from the
people that voted for the law

220
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:39,760
enforcement sales tax. And so, I told
you what my plan was. And I remember

221
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:46,080
hearing you guys say, "That's fair." You
remember that?

222
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:54,400
Not specifically, but I do. Uh, that's
fair. That's fair. And so I went to

223
00:17:49,360 --> 00:18:00,000
work, man. And uh, I discovered that of
the 596

224
00:17:56,559 --> 00:18:06,720
people that I sent texts out to, only
18% of them cared enough to give me any

225
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:12,720
kind of a the response, but 46 of them
said yes, let's do this.

226
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:17,137
And 65 of them said no. Some of them
said,

227
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:24,000
well, they were more emphatic about it.
[laughter] Okay. And uh so I had my

228
00:18:21,039 --> 00:18:28,240
answer on Friday, last Friday. It's
like, okay. So I

229
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:32,280
called the mayor and told him what it
was. He goes, well,

230
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:38,880
probably better you know, get a get a
little pulse from the board. Are they

231
00:18:36,559 --> 00:18:44,480
going to support your recommendation
that says yes, let's go forward? And you

232
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:51,360
know what I found out is that I didn't
have the support from the citizens,

233
00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:59,280
the business community,
nobody but the cops love this program.

234
00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:04,799
And so it didn't make sense to uh you
know, I mean,

235
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:11,600
I I recognize futility when I see it
eventually, you know, and so um so I

236
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:18,000
changed my recommendation and uh we put
that out by way of press release and uh

237
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:22,799
but I never ever ever intended for this
to be anything that was uh considered to

238
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:28,160
be trumping on people's rights or
invading people's privacy. I just

239
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:34,080
intended for it to be a wonderful tool
that would help us get lead uh

240
00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:41,120
information in and crime investigations
and and it did do that, but uh it it

241
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:45,440
wasn't perfect. So anyway, that's why um
why I decided to make the recommendation

242
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:53,840
and and I so my recommendation to the
board officially on this date and time

243
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:58,320
is that we stop uh the uh the program
and uh you know some would say you mean

244
00:19:55,760 --> 00:20:04,640
in its tracks right here right now.
Well, I'm not saying that,

245
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:10,160
but I think the board would have to
decide whether we run the contract on

246
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:16,559
out through October
or do we shut her down right now.

247
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:21,640
That's your call.
I'm indifferent to the subject at this

248
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,640
point.

249
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,520
Questions or comments of me?

250
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:37,679
I have one question to um her
conversation and I don't know if you

251
00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:42,159
know this or who just the contract but
the we don't necessarily know if it's a

252
00:20:39,919 --> 00:20:47,200
citizen of ashro but anyway Ashbro's
swap camera has been destroyed or

253
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:51,679
damaged
>> um and you and I have talked about the

254
00:20:49,679 --> 00:20:58,000
possibility of if our cameras are
damaged while we are in contract if we

255
00:20:54,080 --> 00:21:02,240
are required to pay for the repairs and
reinstatement of those cameras. And I

256
00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:06,799
think that that needs to be something
that we need to know because we might

257
00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:14,600
have some citizens who think they're
going to go help us stop this.

258
00:21:10,159 --> 00:21:14,600
» That's a great question, Joyce.

259
00:21:15,919 --> 00:21:25,120
» No, no. And I am opposed to spending one
extra penny on this on this subject.

260
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:33,039
» Good. Yeah. And so, so I with that in
mind and let me say publicly on uh

261
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:38,720
record that if you damage one of these
cameras and we catch it and on some of

262
00:21:35,120 --> 00:21:44,000
those cameras we do have trails. Uh so
if we catch you then then that's a

263
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:48,240
felony. Now I'm not suggesting that
there's anybody in this room that would

264
00:21:45,679 --> 00:21:55,039
have the audacity to do such a thing but
one of our cameras has been destroyed.

265
00:21:51,200 --> 00:22:01,039
» Yeah. So, um, so, uh, I'm for shutting
that down immediately. And how would you

266
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:08,400
do that? Well, we probably want to go
ahead and close the contract right now.

267
00:22:05,120 --> 00:22:12,480
And, um, I think that we could probably,
they don't want us to take those cameras

268
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:16,240
down, but we could take them down
without damaging.

269
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:21,360
» [applause]
>> we stored them um in the police

270
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:28,159
department and secured them in the
police department. And so, as a common

271
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:34,720
sense suggestion, um uh I've talked
about this with public works, uh I can I

272
00:22:31,919 --> 00:22:38,640
can help with the with the project, but
probably the sooner we do that, the

273
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,640
better.
>> YES.

274
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,919
[applause]
>> Thank you.

275
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:54,559
All right.
[snorts] So, for this for the board, I'd

276
00:22:52,240 --> 00:23:00,100
like to have a vote to not renew the
contract just because of the community

277
00:22:57,360 --> 00:23:03,760
impact.
[laughter]

278
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,960
» I'll make the motion that we terminate
the contract immediately.

279
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:10,159
» Second.
>> First, I have a second. Author Billy,

280
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,200
» yes.
>> Author Gil,

281
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,440
» yes.
>> Author Keane,

282
00:23:11,919 --> 00:23:14,720
» yes. Lancaster.
>> Yes.

283
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:18,360
» Matson,
>> yes.

284
00:23:15,360 --> 00:23:18,360
» Wilson,

285
00:23:21,061 --> 00:23:23,081
[applause]

286
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:33,840
» all right. At number six, we have the uh
project manager report sewage system.

287
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:36,836
Steve is right here.
All right. [laughter]

288
00:23:40,056 --> 00:23:46,559
» [clears throat]
>> Try speaking

289
00:23:43,120 --> 00:23:50,919
on the 94 lift station. Improvements of
upgrade force made replacement.

290
00:23:51,120 --> 00:24:02,559
Young general contracted installed all
the 18 in high density poly pipeline

291
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:09,919
over road. The tie end to Springfield's
system is compromised by a deteriorated

292
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:15,360
manhole at that tie-in point. We did not
know this. This was discovered when the

293
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:21,360
contractor exposed the manhole
attempting to pour through the site.

294
00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:28,640
Uh city of Springfield will replace this
manhole at their expense.

295
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:35,919
So does not add cost to our project.
U they're working on cleanup on road

296
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:40,799
electrical and mechanical modifications
of the blip station upgrade are

297
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:49,200
continuing.
And last time I mentioned a problem with

298
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:56,080
the delivery of four 14in plug valves
that we thought would be here now. got

299
00:24:52,720 --> 00:25:02,080
notification from the contractor did
from the supplier they would not be here

300
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:08,240
until probably January.
So we applied for a dimminimous waiver

301
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:14,000
under the American iron steel
regulations

302
00:25:10,159 --> 00:25:18,880
and the values of these valves
agree with EPA meet the diminishment

303
00:25:17,279 --> 00:25:23,919
standard
and therefore the contractor to order

304
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:30,080
the replacements
that are not 100% American,

305
00:25:27,120 --> 00:25:34,080
but they're ones on board. We're looking
at [snorts]

306
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:40,520
6 to 8 weeks. So, we're looking at
before the ending,

307
00:25:37,039 --> 00:25:40,520
which is reasonable.

308
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:49,440
Contractors got work to do, clean up,
they can continue on with the lift

309
00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:53,760
station upgrade
and they can stage and fuse probably

310
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:56,760
five until [clears throat] we get these
val.

311
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:08,080
So, we're a little behind, but moving
forward.

312
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:12,480
Um, we've [clears throat] submitted
partial payment request number nine to

313
00:26:10,799 --> 00:26:15,480
EPA,
$256,000.

314
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:25,600
Um,
issues concerning

315
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:30,559
repressed draws arose to EPA last week.
They were resolved when an error was

316
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:37,120
pointed out EPA's
record keep

317
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:42,080
them a lot of confusion
took a few phone calls on the Zoom

318
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:48,480
meeting screwed it up.
So, we're ready to submit request number

319
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:51,039
10 to the EPA. I'll do that later this
week.

320
00:26:51,840 --> 00:27:01,200
with the meadows [snorts] gravity trucks
bridge relation sewer down

321
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:06,559

The contractor has completed all work

322
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:12,000
the gravity man
installation except for final touchup of

323
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:17,120
the seating that's occur later this
fall.

324
00:27:13,679 --> 00:27:23,080
We're going to hold 1% retain
the contract come back make sure the

325
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,080
grass is growing

326
00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:31,520
makeup basic and restorations complete
the connection of the meadows

327
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:37,440
originalization truck service airport
station is now alive.

328
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:45,600
So that one
99% done just waiting to make sure the

329
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:51,640
grass is planted gets broken.
I think the retain for the hole on that

330
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,640
job about $12,000.

331
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:57,799
So that's the status of both of those at
this point.

332
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,679
Thank you.

333
00:28:10,574 --> 00:28:12,594

position of annual tax for general
municipal purposes for the year 2027.

336
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,559
I'm going to officially open

337
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:38,240
the public hearing portion.
Gina or Steve or either one of you guys

338
00:28:35,279 --> 00:28:43,799
want to take this
kind explain

339
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,799
» Gina you got stuff.

340
00:28:43,919 --> 00:28:51,120
» So these numbers come from the Green
County Assessor's Office and from the

341
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:55,039
state auditor.
Um,

342
00:28:52,960 --> 00:29:00,720
we have a choice to add on. We did not.
So, this is just based on I don't have

343
00:28:59,039 --> 00:29:06,960
it in front of where everybody can see
it, but thank you. This is just based on

344
00:29:04,559 --> 00:29:13,279
the assessed valuations that we pay in
property taxes. So, that's all I've got

345
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:18,000
on. If you have any questions, I try to
answer them.

346
00:29:14,559 --> 00:29:22,320
» It's a law mandate that we do this every
year.

347
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:25,440
give the public an opportunity to talk
about it.

348
00:29:23,679 --> 00:29:28,760
» Mayor, let me make a comment for a
minute.

349
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,760
» Sure.

350
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:37,360
» Tax le we're talking about right now for
public hearing. [clears throat]

351
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:42,399
Those less were set years and years ago
by ordinance

352
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:48,799
and the Hancock amendment came became
part of the Missouri Constitution.

353
00:29:45,279 --> 00:29:52,799
It requires that cities cannot enjoy a
windfall

354
00:29:50,399 --> 00:29:58,799
to an elevation of assessed property
values.

355
00:29:54,880 --> 00:30:05,440
So if you the assessor decides to double
the values

356
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:11,279
under Hancock, you cannot double your
you can count new construction. new

357
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:18,080
construction very valid and that shows
uh in that notice of [clears throat] new

358
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:24,799
construction of 3.1 million
that goes into the formula and you see

359
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:30,399
the the notice of the projected
uh current revenue

360
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:33,960
and against the
past revenue

361
00:30:35,039 --> 00:30:39,240
mats and the handcuff prof

362
00:30:42,159 --> 00:30:51,679
$16,000
out of 360,000.

363
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:58,960
That by no means is a windfall, but you
have to

364
00:30:53,679 --> 00:31:03,520
keep up with inflation the best you can.
Really, it's designed for the public

365
00:31:01,679 --> 00:31:08,640
hearing.
It's to ensure that the public The city

366
00:31:06,159 --> 00:31:16,960
is not enjoying
a windfall due to an inflated

367
00:31:13,919 --> 00:31:22,799
assessment values [snorts] which the
math here in this sheet

368
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:27,520
shows you here now. So like Gina said
she gets numbers from the county

369
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:33,279
assessor.
The state auditor gets involved with a

370
00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:38,080
long checklist. The packet is kind of
fill in blank.

371
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:43,080
But
approval of the tax leer

372
00:31:46,399 --> 00:31:56,320
to take it to the half limit so you
don't suffer financial loss.

373
00:31:54,480 --> 00:32:02,279
That's all I got.
>> Okay. Thank you.

374
00:31:58,559 --> 00:32:02,279
» Does anybody have anything?

375
00:32:02,559 --> 00:32:15,279
um was reading the numbers on the tax
deal. And so I did notice that the taxes

376
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:20,000
on the citizens of Willard property
owners went up,

377
00:32:18,399 --> 00:32:25,679
but
business owners, developers, commercial

378
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:31,360
developers
down.

379
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:36,559
Um, I'm hoping that maybe the board I
understand you guys said the state,

380
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:41,760
you know, recommended these numbers, but
they're recommendations. They're by no

381
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:46,000
means law. Um,
as the man said, you know, no windfall,

382
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:52,240
keep up with inflation and all this
stuff. Um, I would like you guys to keep

383
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:58,799
in mind that it it is the citizens who
pays the taxes. And so, um, as a

384
00:32:55,919 --> 00:33:03,679
taxpayer myself in the city of Lord, um,
I'm hoping that you guys would change

385
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:09,679
those numbers because there are a lot of
developers I've noticed coming to. You

386
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:13,360
would change those numbers to benefit
your citizens

387
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:16,679
over
other entities.

388
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,360
Anybody else?

389

out. [laughter] Sorry. [snorts]

461
00:39:10,720 --> 00:39:18,880
Just FYI, the reason you pass this up by
annually is so that you can use the

462
00:39:15,599 --> 00:39:24,480
short form when people are filing and it
limits it from everybody um

463
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:29,520
automatically filing. So it allows for
the MAC filings to be in a more limited

464
00:39:27,359 --> 00:39:35,640
manner and they do it by annually I
believe so that you all are reminded of

465
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,640
it not making changes.

Yeah.

» Father Lancaster.
>> Matson. Yes.

483
00:40:28,112 --> 00:40:30,132
» [laughter]

484
00:40:36,079 --> 00:40:43,119
» An ordinance of the board of elers of
the city of Missouri authorizing the

485
00:40:40,079 --> 00:40:49,680
mayor to enter into an agreement with
Seer of Missouri LLC for lateral ceiling

486
00:40:46,720 --> 00:40:55,800
services.
>> Is this you?

487
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,800
» It's right.

488
00:40:55,839 --> 00:40:58,480
do the heavy lift.
>> What's that?

489
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,839
» They're going to make you do the heavy
lift.

490
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:03,760
» Yeah.
>> Well, as you know from the last

491
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:09,040
presentation I put on a PowerPoint, we
had a lot of ini issues.

492
00:41:06,720 --> 00:41:15,680
We have a lot of INI issues in the city,
but we focused all of our attention on

493
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:19,839
Bella Park in the Meadows. Okay. So, we
completed all the camera work,

494
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:24,800
everything, the maps. We know all the
problems that we have out there. I've

495
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:30,960
also recently completed all the smoke
testing out there. So, I feel we've got

496
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:36,079
about 98% of all the problems mapped.
So, Trevor and myself, we met with the

497
00:41:34,240 --> 00:41:40,960
contractor to start injecting some of
these manholes, routing some of these

498
00:41:38,079 --> 00:41:48,480
lines and start getting a handle on some
of this ini. So, we met with them. They

499
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:52,960
can tackle all of the issues we have.
And the reason we went for this is we

500
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:59,440
need to encompass which is called
curtain routing. We need to get all

501
00:41:55,440 --> 00:42:04,160
these manholes and lines sealed up. Um
and I think I laid out in my

502
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:08,960
presentation. This price is not actually
bad for how much we're actually paying

503
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:14,079
for this waste water.
So, I think it's a really good

504
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:17,839
opportunity for us to follow through and
actually start fixing some of these

505
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:21,920
issues in the system.
>> And the price was 60 something,000

506
00:42:20,240 --> 00:42:26,319
» 73,000
and change.

507
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:31,839
» So, just so you guys know, I talked to
Trevor about this um last week and it's

508
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:36,160
in his budget. He had money already
budget, but considering the price um I

509
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:42,319
wanted it, you know, just on record so
that you guys knew knew about it. plus

510
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:48,880
for information purposes to show that
you know we're throwing a serious chunk

511
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:52,400
of change at the meadows and at our
water system and infrastructure in

512
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:58,240
general.
>> So I wanted on the record that

513
00:42:55,760 --> 00:43:02,359
public works are
doing the best they can and it

514
00:43:03,359 --> 00:43:12,079
» is
already So, we're not for repairs.

515
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,880
So,
>> so we're really not asking for anything

516
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:19,200
extra. I just wanted it on record to
show the people that contrary to what

517
00:43:17,599 --> 00:43:22,079
some say we're doing.
>> Also addressing what we've got in the

518
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,560
» an audit issue.
>> Okay.

519
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:27,920
» Yeah. There are some other things we're
doing with meters also that are

520
00:43:26,240 --> 00:43:32,079
addressing the water the missing water
issue.

521
00:43:30,079 --> 00:43:36,160
» But actually, it's really good because
through last presentation we were

522
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:43,359
looking at, you know, doing nothing cost
us about $8,000 a year. So the payback

523
00:43:40,319 --> 00:43:48,640
on this is actually less than a year and
in perpetuity you're actually paying

524
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:54,839
back a lot more. So I think it's a
pretty good deal. We finally get to see

525
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:54,839
some of our hard work come to fruition.

526
00:44:00,990 --> 00:44:03,839

535
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,960

Matson. Yes. Father.

537

» All right. Item number nine. Anything on
new business?

538
00:44:51,040 --> 00:45:00,920
» Anything on unfinished business?
>> Where we at on recycle?

539
00:44:57,359 --> 00:45:00,920
» Where are we on

540
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:07,839
» right now? Well, they've been keeping it
cleaned up and it's been

541
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:11,119
I got the first bill from GFL and it was
$2,500

542
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:15,599
for the month of July, but I'm still
trying to find out if that was one

543
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:20,160
container or both containers.
But Republic came in about the same. So,

544
00:45:18,079 --> 00:45:26,400
if you guys want to keep it, it's going
to be probably about $50,000 a year.

545
00:45:23,839 --> 00:45:29,400
What was that?
>> 30.

546
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:36,880
» But it's a free service that we give to
the community and

547
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:41,079
it's more than what we thought it was
going to be because we need two

548
00:45:38,079 --> 00:45:41,079
containers.

549
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:48,640
It's up to you guys what you want to do.
>> You guys want to put on the agenda for

550
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:51,640
next meeting to discuss and vote on?
>> Okay.

551
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,920
went by there yesterday and it was

552
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:08,920
» all right
>> if we can

553
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,920
» hold

554
00:46:09,371 --> 00:46:14,960
[laughter]
>> other than

555
00:46:12,319 --> 00:46:21,119
do we I guess I'm asking do we need two
containers that was not the original bid

556
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:25,040
but we got to because they were filling
up the things and not breaking things

557
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:30,960
down. If I understood correctly,
>> I went out I went out Friday and it was

558
00:46:28,720 --> 00:46:36,319
a container was full and half the other
container was full. So I did not go out

559
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:40,400
this morning because by the time I got
out of town it was already taken out. So

560
00:46:39,119 --> 00:46:44,880
» first day of school.
>> Yeah.

561
00:46:42,319 --> 00:46:49,040
» So I don't really know. Like I said,
Friday it was a container and a half or

562
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:54,480
Thursday because they picked up Friday
it was a container and a half. So

563
00:46:52,480 --> 00:47:00,720
if we go down to one container, then
people would have to hold that half a

564
00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:02,720
container until the weekend. But
>> and the weekend was when everybody shows

565
00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:04,000
up.
>> Exactly.

566
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:07,720
» Everything.
>> And that was on a Thursday.

567
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:16,160
» Question. Are you noticing if things are
being broken down? And if not, is that

568
00:47:13,839 --> 00:47:21,200
why they're filling up?
The boxes have been being broke down

569
00:47:18,720 --> 00:47:25,440
compared to what they were before since
we've made signs and put out public

570
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:29,760
knowledge that it's going to go away if
you don't take care of it. It has been

571
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:34,000
treated better. It's been clean. It has
the boxes have been broken down. Trash

572
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:37,920
cans are still full every week with
trash sitting on the ground, but it's

573
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:42,560
not everywhere.
I don't know if someone's using it for

574
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:49,319
their personal trash or what, but
it is looking better. It is being kept

575
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,319
pretty clean.

576
00:47:51,359 --> 00:48:00,000
» Okay, we'll put on the agenda for the
next meeting and go over the nuts and

577
00:47:55,520 --> 00:48:03,480
bolts and the cost what we want to do.
Never let you go.

578
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:14,880
» Um, okay. I just want to also just
encourage that we keep putting the uh

579
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:19,063
meetings on our page.
>> If I can spell it.

580
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:22,960
» You can spell right.
[laughter]

581
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:26,978
» Point that out.
>> That would be great.

you go.
