restaurant owner 63 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:27,080 says we weren't able to get it is there always something that we don't know is 64 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:33,800 there always a good reason for somebody not getting it our usual 65 00:07:30,759 --> 00:07:41,440 situation I I don't know what the usual situation I would think most 66 00:07:37,479 --> 00:07:46,919 thec but there are some

00:08:13,800 no I don't know that that would be we were just disappointed if po here a lot 70 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:19,319 of real estate and when it closed was well 71 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:25,159 I I would be dis I am disappointed to find out it takes that law because I 72 00:08:21,319 --> 00:08:30,879 wouldn't think like everybody else here somewhat short I don't know about the 73 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:35,880 regul regulation section I know the audited section had one auditor that 74 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:39,200 covered the entire State and 75 00:08:42,680 --> 00:08:49,279 that's let ask one other question we have a new hotel that's been under 76 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:53,360 construction for seven years you know the one I'm talking about it's had 77 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:57,920 various signs on it now it says holidan express their parent company said I'm 78 00:08:55,680 --> 00:09:05,320 wrong they are not opening and withing I'm assuming it's hot going to have a 79 00:09:00,079 --> 00:09:09,920 bar I know this well ium they will I hope they will 80 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:14,279 but by here the hotel has been sold 81 00:09:15,399 --> 00:09:26,160 again and I know 82 00:09:20,079 --> 00:09:32,360 that one of the princi one of the managers cross the 83 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:41,160 street speak to general manager and uh he was 84 00:09:36,519 -->

council members have 108 00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:00,440 opion a couple more questions 109 00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:07,680 2.6 million that receips that 2. 110 00:13:09,839 --> 00:13:18,440 milon andine 111 00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:24,360 that 100% ofet profits are donated to the work is that correct uh that's 112 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:30,959 correct there a there's a percentage uh that comes off the top set 113 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:38,519 aside off the after we paid police and after we paid 114 00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:43,399 for the alcohol treatment 115 00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:51,240 actually to First Step Farm as our contribution 116 00:13:47,560 --> 00:13:57,399 to the charity after that a percentage of that set aside from the town and then 117 00:13:54,160 --> 00:14:04,360 if there's poets beyond that well that then 118 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,360 aside 119 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:10,000 working and there's a limit on how much 120 00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:24,519 Works certain 121 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:37,199 our operating expenses we got money go to various 122 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:46,040 places but the town it before a certain 123 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,880 percentage Ma 124 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:22,160 know I just add two things to that 125 00:15:25,279 --> 00:15:29,279 term um 126 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:41,519 when you look at what various ABC boards contribute to the 127 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:50,560 towns uh there's a wide variation it makes a huge amount I mean 128 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:56,399 doll each St these store is roughly the same size car same ver because that's 129 00:15:54,519 --> 00:16:01,920 what we here and prices are all 130 00:15:59,639 --> 00:16:07,480 you can't advertise 131 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:11,319 so the big difference in what comes down bottom line 132 00:16:14,199 --> 00:16:23,680 to is determined by our gross sales 133 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:29,639 primary and so there's a tremendous amount of Leverage that we can handle a 134 00:16:25,759 --> 00:16:37,399 lot more traffic than we our has been emplo just because of nature job about 135 00:16:33,639 --> 00:16:44,920 as many employees as any other s about the same 136 00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:49,319 size about the same but but the more you more traffic 137 00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:55,720 push most of it goes to the bottom line it's 138 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,720 wonderful so so send us 139 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:04,839 CS question thank you very much and congratulations 140 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,839 on 141 00:17:09,679 --> 00:17:12,679

that in 160 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:38,200 the last half dozen years and so that has encapsulated a lot more of our work 161 00:20:35,559 --> 00:20:44,080 we also work with propane compressed natural 162 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:49,919 gas hydrogen when it comes um biodiesel any of the any of the alternative fuels 163 00:20:46,919 --> 00:20:54,679 um specifically non non fossil fuel based 164 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:59,760 stuff sure so the 165 00:20:57,120 --> 00:21:05,000 uh tonight I'm going to talk about new kind of electric cars um it's a to Hot 166 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:09,960 Topic right now A lot of people are talking about policy and a lot of people 167 00:21:07,039 --> 00:21:12,840 are talking about progress with the transition to 168 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:17,559 electrification and so I'm going to start with some basic facts um from the 169 00:21:16,039 --> 00:21:22,039 history of electric cars um we're actually going to go a 170 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:29,880 little further back the M the 1700s uh steam cars started to appear on 171 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:35,000 the scene and replace uh course and and Buggies as the main transport 172 00:21:33,039 --> 00:21:38,279 never had to advance my own sp else 173 00:21:38,559 --> 00:21:47,000 always um and and at that point in time Ste was considered a tried and true 174 00:21:44,679 --> 00:21:50,720 power source which sound pretty familiar we hear that a lot today about coal we 175 00:21:48,919 --> 00:21:55,679 hear a lot about gasoline and tried through energy source 176 00:21:53,360 --> 00:22:01,279 that has long since been reliable and Transit factories as a power source 177 00:21:59,279 --> 00:22:06,240 uh downside being that steam Vehicles could take up to 45 minutes to get 178 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:11,240 started if it was cold and they required frequent water RS to keep 179 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:16,240 running in 1841 an electric locomotive was 180 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:22,720 campaigned that was able to pull six tons a mile and a half at 4 milph and 181 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:27,520 that was the first real demonstration of electrification and insort 182 00:22:25,120 --> 00:22:32,919 power uh in 1859 chargeable batteries came onto the 183 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:39,960 scene that really started to change kind of the the methodology for electric 184 00:22:37,159 --> 00:22:46,559 transportation um in 1890 fellow named Willie Morrison in De 185 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:51,840 Mo Iowa built a six passenger electric vehicle that would travel 14 M hour and 186 00:22:50,159 --> 00:22:58,679 had 50 m range um those Vehicles required the 187 00:22:55,240 --> 00:23:03,279 batteries to be changed after the drve have we didn't we didn't have enough 188 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:10,320 battery stock at that point 189 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:15,320 um and Philadelphia in 1896 so a handful of years a company called electr started 190 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:21,679 to produce electric vehicles and it was the first commercially viable EV uh and 191 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:26,320 actually raced those cars against some of the existing stock of other 192 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:31,600 automobiles on the road were able to beat down on 5 m 193 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:36,559 anybody here has ever had a ride or driven an electric 194 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:42,039 vehicle that they have all of the door 195 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:46,840 um between 1900 and 1906 a company called the electric vehicle company 196 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:51,320 operated over 600 EV cabs in New York City they built the first battery 197 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:55,240 swapping station that they could pull the cars in and quickly swap batteries 198 00:23:54,039 --> 00:23:58,720 between them and send them right back out on the road to carry passengers 199 00:23:57,039 --> 00:24:04,840 again uh an investment partner in that project 200 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:08,760 became the exi battery corporation which is still one of the largest battery 201 00:24:07,039 --> 00:24:16,000 manufacturers in the world and another partner in that named 202 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:20,799 po developed the columia brand was the first automobile manufacturer to build a 203 00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:26,279 th automobiles 204 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:30,640 um then there are the gasoline cars came on the scene 205 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:34,120 were complicated to drive they were hard to start they were noisy they were 206 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:39,559 smelly there weren't any of the things that the electric cars even the steam 207 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:44,480 cars people knew were but then Henry for came in this picture and with the Model 208 00:24:42,039 --> 00:24:50,640 T he overtook the electric cars while being able to provide one the cost of 209 00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:56,320 what any of the existing cars any other manufactur 210 00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:00,320 processes after that until about 20 years ago rest history 211 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:07,240 so adoption of EVS in the United States uh in 212 00:25:04,679 --> 00:25:12,679 2023 was a record year for the sale of EVS in the United States we more than 213 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:20,080 doubled the number of EVS on the road we sold 1.2 million EVS in the calendar 214 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:28,640 year of 2023 in the United States 7.6% of the new vehicles sold for e in 215 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:35,240 2023 that was a an insane growth curve for electric vehicles uh in the 216 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:40,120 automotive industry they consider 5% of sales being the threshold between early 217 00:25:38,159 --> 00:25:46,640 adopters and becoming mainstream adoptions so in 2023 we actually crossed 218 00:25:43,279 --> 00:25:50,880 that 5% thresh where it's starting to look like it's not just people who like 219 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:55,679 new tech or different things or people that are like just really into the 220 00:25:53,320 --> 00:26:00,679 environmental more regular people are buying and driving them you keep on the 221 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:07,640 road you'll see that that's the case in this area we' got a lot 222 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:13,679 of North Carolina has been in the top 20 States Nationwide for Ev registrations 223 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:20,600 per capita for the past few years uh our region has seen a 24% growth rate in 224 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:26,880 registrations uh and what that equates to on the math side is there were five 225 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:32,360 times as many EV registrations in land ofy count in 2023 as they were in 226 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:41,360 2018 so I'll talk a little bit about e charging because this is something that 227 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:45,120 a lot of people hear about and don't really understand there's a lot of 228 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:50,000 information here so I'm just going to try to run through it to keep it fairly 229 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:54,760 basic so e is PR recharge from a variety of electrical 230 00:26:51,559 --> 00:26:59,000 sources electricity as a power source is relatively inexpensive especially here 231 00:26:56,679 --> 00:27:04,720 in North Carolina some of the lowest rates below average for national average 232 00:27:01,399 --> 00:27:10,760 ofle rates it's widely available can be dispensed at home without any special 233 00:27:07,799 --> 00:27:14,760 equipment one of the standard charging methods is called Level One charging 234 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:20,000 when you buy an electric car it comes with a cord that has a level one plug 235 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:26,200 and that plugs into just 120 volt wall outl like a regular lamp or your 236 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:31,279 computer um those Chargers between mil of range per hour 237 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:36,080 they charging Level One charging works best 238 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:41,840 for times when the car is parked for many hours of a time for instance I 239 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:46,799 drive my car home I plug it in at night I'm asleep it's charging itself 240 00:27:44,559 --> 00:27:52,159 depending on the distance you commute a level one charger may be able to fulfill 241 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:58,519 all of your mileage needs at any given day while you sleep overnight level two 242 00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:03,080 charging has become more common type of thing we started to see in shopping 243 00:28:00,399 --> 00:28:08,240 centers angles has put them in at some of their locations level two Chargers 244 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:13,240 can also be installed at your home they require a 240 volt circuit like a dry 245 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:19,200 electric range for use they can provide between 10 and 40 m 246 00:28:16,519 --> 00:28:23,320 of range per hour depending on the hard of the vehicle and that really is 247 00:28:20,799 --> 00:28:27,440 dependent on the circuit the charger the vehicle willing to 248 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:31,000 accept uh level two charging is really ideal when Vehicles park for 30 minutes 249 00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:35,440 or more while you're shopping while you're 250 00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:40,360 enjoying leisure activities outdoors sporting events or lawyer at home or at 251 00:28:38,279 --> 00:28:45,799 work so workplace charging is another place that we're seeing level two being 252 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:50,000 installed DC fast charging is kind of the hot button topic uh that we hear the 253 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:53,760 most about when we hear about infrastructure infrastructure 254 00:28:51,279 --> 00:28:59,320 infrastructure on electric vehicle charging B large are talking about DC 255 00:28:56,519 --> 00:29:04,799 fast charging fast charging is really ideal for long distance travel of quick 256 00:29:01,799 --> 00:29:09,320 top ups and can provide up to 8% of the range of the vehicle in as little as 15 257 00:29:07,519 --> 00:29:15,440 minutes again depending on the charger and the vehicle um my vehicle is a 258 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:21,080 little older it takes about 45 minutes to an hour to get 259 00:29:17,159 --> 00:29:24,399 80% Sarah my boss's vehicle can do that same charge in 18 260 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:29,600 minutes um DC fast driving works really well in 261 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:36,880 places people might stop for a bathroom break or a meal or a short shopping trip 262 00:29:33,399 --> 00:29:40,960 a grocery store convenience store um DC also tends to be the most expensive form 263 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:45,480 of charging requiring special equipment and electric utility 264 00:29:42,679 --> 00:29:52,440 support um on the average I would say traveling on the road I pay about $5 to 265 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:58,880 $18 for 200 miles range DC F which balances out to about 30 m per 266 00:29:56,279 --> 00:30:05,279 gallon G doing that on gas even if we were 267 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:09,640 going to build a DC Bass Station B Town Hall can you make up a ballpark what 268 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:15,799 what do those things cost to construct starts at about 269 00:30:11,679 --> 00:30:20,120 $50,000 um if it's not Fally funded you can keep it low if it's Fally funded 270 00:30:18,159 --> 00:30:26,000 it's got to meet new requirement that push it up to almost a million 271 00:30:23,159 --> 00:30:30,279 do if it's Fally funded it's got to have there's got to be four Chargers and 272 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:36,200 they've got to have a higher rate of current capacity than the lower cost 273 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,200 charges 274 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:44,080 G L1 l2c 275 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,080 um 276 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,960 batteries is there 277 00:30:49,570 --> 00:30:56,600 [Music] issue Charing or 278 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:10,080 it very marginally impacts the 279 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:15,519 biggest um battery life harm you can do is keeping the vehicle near 100% 280 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:21,039 charg so the high the high state of charge the battery generates more heat 281 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:28,159 heat is what causes the battery to fail more soon and by more soon I mean many 282 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:36,639 of the EVS on in 2017 from that era are on the road 300,000 283 00:31:33,039 --> 00:31:42,320 miles so with exception on Le which didn't have temperature management 284 00:31:39,799 --> 00:31:51,039 battery the battery Management systems do a very good job and the cycle ofy is 285 00:31:45,919 --> 00:31:57,639 well up thousand of 100% CES soon our our plug in hybrid will be 286 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,639 built too 287 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,720 if it's a plug in yeah you can charge it on level one orev 288 00:32:04,159 --> 00:32:07,760 two some of those 289 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:20,880 come so where we are in charging Western North Carolina is an interesting and 290 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:24,840 challenging point in transportation electrification our region is rich in 291 00:32:22,919 --> 00:32:29,760 natural beauty clean air and outdor Recreation opportunities and with touris 292 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:33,519 component of our Region's income we find ourselves considerably under stocked 293 00:32:31,679 --> 00:32:38,320 when it comes to infrastructure to support our residents and visitors to 294 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:45,760 the area lines of DC fast Chargers and occup charg common Cur across the 295 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:53,039 region and our current inventory of DC fast Chargers is this we have 11 296 00:32:49,519 --> 00:32:59,919 locations with a combined 22 PLS that are open to all makes and models of DC 297 00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:03,840 fast we have five Tesla Supercharger locations with a combin total of 40 CLS 298 00:33:02,919 --> 00:33:10,159 between them now recently for and have open up 299 00:33:07,639 --> 00:33:18,600 onto the Tesla Network Char that's 300 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:23,360 helpes this area we have one Riv DC fast charger with one BL and for level two 301 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:28,000 infrastructure we have less than 100 publicly available stations in our FL 302 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:35,760 County region to PLS a large quantity of the listed 303 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:38,000 sites up online HS and those statistics are 304 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,639 within which is 305 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:51,720 Madison and up here the image that I've got on the top there is a picture of a 306 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:59,720 proposed DC fast charging map from NC while we're working on the first part 307 00:33:55,279 --> 00:33:59,720 of the process we talk about 308 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:14,520 um what's the for to the West what is that the farthest west of Asheville was 309 00:34:08,919 --> 00:34:18,359 spotted kind of near Windville is um in reality the map looks a lot more 310 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:23,639 like this this is a prod this 311 00:34:26,720 --> 00:34:34,000 map it's a bunch of worms so there's currently two infrastructure funding 312 00:34:31,919 --> 00:34:38,839 programs Federal infrastructure funding programs out there the first one is 313 00:34:36,679 --> 00:34:44,560 called we call it nevi it's the national electric vehicle infrastructure 314 00:34:41,240 --> 00:34:47,240 program uh the second one is called CFI and it's the charging and fueling 315 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:52,480 infrastructure program the ne program is going to be 316 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:56,359 handled through the state BS and so they get allocations North Carolina is 317 00:34:54,639 --> 00:35:00,400 getting $109 million and 318 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:05,560 they will have multiple roll outs for different phases of implementation for 319 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:11,680 this doing cor base charg first which is what this map is and so each of those 320 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:17,960 numbered areas are a designated location that they have identified a handful of 321 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:22,960 exits that would be a good spot for an easy fast charger 322 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:28,000 installation um it dictates that the four based charging locations must be 323 00:35:25,359 --> 00:35:32,160 within 50 miles of each other they must contain at least four clubs capable of 324 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:36,920 150 Sous the other program they'll be 325 00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:42,240 running out of n is community based charging and we don't have guidelines 326 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:47,359 for what they look like yet probably see that in next 327 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:52,319 year um NC did recently a few months ago release their round one every cluster 328 00:35:49,319 --> 00:35:57,680 locations that's this map and it honestly Le a lot be desire for our 329 00:35:54,319 --> 00:36:04,599 region um the Western most location identified on here is exit 73 that's 330 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:10,599 old um there's a gap from there to the Tennessee State Bond of you know 331 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:16,079 probably about 73 miles um with no compliant Chargers the only compliant 332 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:21,640 charger that we have in the actual area is a Sam's Club on Patt Avenue and it's 333 00:36:19,240 --> 00:36:25,880 more than a mile from our so it's not comp to that it is comp 334 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:37,000 to good new there going to be more so in the second phase of B base charging 335 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:42,440 you'll be filling in gaps in between Lo they did Focus primarily on Roots 336 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:48,200 getting people away from the co for Hurricane and also filling a few gaps 337 00:36:48,319 --> 00:36:51,680 are3 Gap 338 00:36:53,839 --> 00:36:57,839 there St 339 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:06,599 um bad news about it is that level the round one sites for this NE program 340 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:11,119 aren't expected to be able to mission for probably two to years because it's 341 00:37:09,720 --> 00:37:15,640 Federal funding and that means we have to go through a ton of processes and 342 00:37:13,119 --> 00:37:20,800 procedures before we can actually break and build thing and there's a lot of 343 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:24,960 checks and balances that have to happen going 344 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:28,560 process the charging fueling infrastructure program is administered 345 00:37:26,599 --> 00:37:33,079 by federal highways and as such it's a nationwide 346 00:37:30,599 --> 00:37:37,760 competitive funding opportunity it offers both Bor and Community Based 347 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:42,200 opportunties and will be opened up yearly for five years it's about2 and5 348 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:50,319 billion doll in funds in that program that are available we just run round one 349 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:58,560 and awarded that this past fall and land Vehicles Coalition helped to produce an 350 00:37:53,359 --> 00:38:04,000 application for round one that NCD The Proposal would supply high speed DC 351 00:38:01,119 --> 00:38:06,839 fast charging to five communities west of 352 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:11,760 Ashville almost all of which are actually out of our region but what we 353 00:38:08,839 --> 00:38:20,040 were working on is a cross Regional collaboration to end gaps as as any 354 00:38:16,599 --> 00:38:24,560 direction go down georgiae our application unfortunately 355 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:29,359 was not funed and we did just get feedback this week on it that it was 356 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:34,960 compe there weren't sufficient funds and we are likely to resubmit that 357 00:38:32,319 --> 00:38:39,319 application in this next round but it will either be submitted through us or 358 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:47,119 Southwestern Commission because one thing we noticed in that is that no do 359 00:38:42,839 --> 00:38:52,000 applications were funed Ground one all a lot of it was counil of government we 360 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:56,200 actually went with do offer they brought in a consult work with them because we 361 00:38:54,240 --> 00:38:59,200 thought that stronger application there's 362 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:07,680 um we're also working with Partners across the region to develop charging 363 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:11,560 projects along major corridors as well as in communities with a goal of apply 364 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:15,880 for opportunities as they arise we're also working with 365 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:20,640 municipalities and business owners infrastructure planning and installation 366 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:26,359 location for construction Happ inorder to prepare those 367 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,359 sites on Ro 368 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:35,160 so what can we do there's a lot that you can do in your 369 00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:38,800 community to be able to help with the adoption of electrification and 370 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:42,240 transportation and be able to help the community get some of this funding 371 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:47,160 that's coming down from the federal government planning and zoning is a big 372 00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:52,319 place that plays into it ensuring that your plan use and development ordinances 373 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:56,319 encourage recharging infrastructure and or supporting infrastructure for future 374 00:39:54,319 --> 00:40:00,839 charging installations res es can inadvertently 375 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:05,359 hinder the adoption of new technology and reduce resid abilities to make 376 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:09,680 choices that suit their needs and wants long range planning including 377 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:13,359 having an indepth look at your communties needs for electrification 378 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:19,079 when you're doing strategic and long-term planning processes that can 379 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:22,920 help help you to inform your language in your longterm plan to prepare the 380 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:27,839 community for the increase in need the adoption that is naturally occurring 381 00:40:25,119 --> 00:40:31,680 currently in the United States you can Don legislative support as well 382 00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:35,119 letting your elected officials and representatives know that our 383 00:40:33,359 --> 00:40:40,560 communities are experiencing a rapid growth and need ownership and that we 384 00:40:37,319 --> 00:40:43,960 need support for continued investment in infrastructure that's a that's a thing 385 00:40:42,599 --> 00:40:48,560 that we run into when we do these applications we do a big application 386 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:54,160 like that we ask for letter of support from all of the elected officials in the 387 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:58,800 areas where that's applicable we have some that dein on that application 388 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,680 FAL 389 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,889 [Music] 390 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:18,079 support just didn't think it a big use of 391 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:23,800 funds didn't think it was important enough and we honestly we have lots of 392 00:41:21,720 --> 00:41:31,200 problems PL places um but because that funding was 393 00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:34,839 use of that funding um we can educate ourselves we can educate our communities 394 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:39,079 about like of transportation and how it impacts us we can address the issues and 395 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:43,839 concerns as well as the opportunities in the this and that's what we do at land 396 00:41:42,359 --> 00:41:48,280 Vehicles Coalition there's a lot of Outreach a lot of Education a lot of 397 00:41:46,079 --> 00:41:53,480 opportunities for people to just check these cars out drive them take a look at 398 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:58,520 them ask the questions ask what you what you think you know about it and you're 399 00:41:55,440 --> 00:42:03,560 curious you heard this thing but that's what we do my job is to answer those 400 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:09,839 questions and and to provide real data and information about 401 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:15,079 what's going on with them um you can plan you can consider how your community 402 00:42:12,319 --> 00:42:19,640 is impacted by transportation in general and help the transition to new 403 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:24,520 technologies that could be electric cars Bic pedri infrastructure and there's a 404 00:42:22,839 --> 00:42:29,280 lot of places to go with that you can coordinate with businesses res and 405 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:34,880 to be prepared for the fing opportunities to come in a lot of times 406 00:42:31,720 --> 00:42:38,359 they've got a 20 to 50% match so then it makes sense to have Partnerships where 407 00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:44,319 you may have other entities that can put some money into that game and help you 408 00:42:40,359 --> 00:42:48,480 make that difference of um experience we host a lot of events at the C Vehicles 409 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:53,079 Coalition throughout the year we do a number of car shows including a couple 410 00:42:50,359 --> 00:42:58,599 big car shows of as Outlets every single year uh and we encourage everybody to 411 00:42:55,240 --> 00:43:02,720 come out take a ride cars talk to us about the stuff ask all the questions 412 00:43:00,839 --> 00:43:06,359 just to you know so when the community comes to you and wants to know what you 413 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:11,960 think about it you're make an informed statement for them um and last is 414 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:17,559 contact you reach out to us with any questions if you need data if you need 415 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:21,319 Publications we've got access to all of the things published by all the National 416 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:25,359 Laboratories all the studies and there's a ton of that ton of 417 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:31,440 those resources out there so when you're looking for a specific thing reach out 418 00:43:28,240 --> 00:43:31,440 that's something that can help you to 419 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:39,520 find and so in conclusion with Transportation industry is constantly 420 00:43:37,079 --> 00:43:44,720 evolving from Steam Powered and electric cars to gasoline and Diesel back to 421 00:43:42,599 --> 00:43:49,280 electric and even on the hydrogen in the future we are all along through ride and 422 00:43:47,319 --> 00:43:53,839 it's up to us to understand and plan for how this Evolution changes the way we Mo 423 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:57,839 our residents deserve an equal opportunity to choose the transportation 424 00:43:55,680 --> 00:44:02,040 solutions that work for them and our communities deserve Investments that 425 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:07,260 will help Propel us into the future if anybody has any questions here for 426 00:44:04,150 --> 00:44:07,260 [Music] 427 00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:18,200 questions what's the 428 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:27,240 philosophical emphasis your Coalition on intersection between 429 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:30,079 individual and their char public 430 00:44:32,240 --> 00:44:39,760 transportation um the the underlying premise of the entire 431 00:44:38,079 --> 00:44:46,800 Coalition is decarbonization of transportation and 432 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:52,160 air pollution reduction sources so we branched 433 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:59,040 outow and whatever else just looking at places where we can reduce our 434 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:59,040 emission across theard 435 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:13,800 going on I have prior to working aty I 436 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:30,079 was they got a micro now on site they're starting toour some electric trim 437 00:45:26,359 --> 00:45:34,599 equipment Le and and stuff there's a yeah they're doing a lot 438 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:38,280 of good work we were working on a lot of that stuff time 439 00:45:43,240 --> 00:45:48,639 there thank you very much for coming we [Music] 440 00:45:52,680 --> 00:46:00,160 appreciate thank youor council members um 441 00:45:57,720 --> 00:46:03,359 so to begin uh in the administration department I'd like to report on 442 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:08,319 contracts that have come in in the last 30 days the first two contracts actually 443 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:13,760 go together TSA choice for just under $3,000 for 444 00:46:10,359 --> 00:46:19,319 someing work just basically computer infrastructure that we need in our 445 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:24,240 basement as part of our evidence group renovation with that renovation we're 446 00:46:21,599 --> 00:46:31,160 adding in office for evidence custodian and processing area we stru to do that 447 00:46:28,599 --> 00:46:38,480 work the second contract for CNA Associates is for um some it's a new 448 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:43,400 software mod this is part of not just Improvement 449 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:48,760 evation of the EV a lot of law enforcement agencies are moving towards 450 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:57,359 PS um it's just a very sophisticated well design software for 451 00:46:53,240 --> 00:47:03,960 tracking all of your evidence good data ass it a barod 452 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:10,680 system EV scan and it allows us to not only record 453 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:15,880 data about that but track it so that evidence go to a lab support anywhere 454 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:28,839 else is that a cent server or is it a cloud application that 455 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,520 server I 456 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:46,000 didn't that means that you're not really configuring it 457 00:47:40,839 --> 00:47:46,000 individually each client 458 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:57,480 B hear the question I could hear your vending machine sorry so my question 459 00:47:54,760 --> 00:48:03,359 about p is it that you buy and put on maches here 460 00:48:00,119 --> 00:48:09,680 clients or is it a application that exists in the cloud that you connect to 461 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:15,079 no it is put into our server here it integrates with the County's 462 00:48:12,319 --> 00:48:19,960 arest sorry it is placed on the server here 463 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:23,280 and it integrates with the County's Rec management system so they can speak back 464 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:27,400 and forth with each other but it's it's built and kept in house it's built and 465 00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:34,040 kept in is not a third party application that it 466 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:41,160 is a third party B and install it and maintain so that means to me that'll be 467 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:46,920 successive iterations of it over time a client can decide whether or not 468 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:51,160 they want to upgrade or not you may reach a point where you have to upgrade 469 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:57,119 if you want to continue using it similar to other software modules 470 00:48:54,079 --> 00:49:02,480 that we use for other applications um this initial contract is for that 471 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:06,680 initial software module getting it installed getting it up and running 472 00:49:10,359 --> 00:49:13,520 and I'm 473 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:23,960 assuming I just about I'm assuming that there are several possible solutions and 474 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:29,359 this is the one that these departments in County are using to to 475 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:44,200 Jo Trend in Enterprise software is cloudbased where you don't do 476 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,960 own 477 00:49:53,319 --> 00:49:57,319 solution that 478 00:49:57,799 --> 00:50:06,480 I don't I'm not sure we didn't what we have chosen is all the departments in 479 00:50:03,559 --> 00:50:10,240 the county that came together and been uh have gone to this or are going to 480 00:50:09,240 --> 00:50:16,359 this system and so during that they're 481 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:19,720 developing a new I guess a central system for us that Central Square has 482 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:22,799 been using now for record management but they're going to a different group so 483 00:50:21,240 --> 00:50:28,480 they're trying to make sure they all integrate this pack system so kind of a 484 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:31,880 colletive this is the best one out here this is what we're all going to 485 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:42,480 already uh the current contract small contract Council has been 486 00:50:39,839 --> 00:50:47,920 updated before about some of our mod Improvement Community while 487 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,920 weac 488 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:57,040 work lien the last contract P construction is 489 00:50:54,799 --> 00:51:02,000 for the Church Road project I've reported on this in the 490 00:50:58,799 --> 00:51:07,920 past this is our highest priority of our infrastructure identified after church 491 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:12,079 Street for Church Road um we'll look at the entire inventory and and look at the 492 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:15,599 highest priorities and probably do a single contract for the rest but this 493 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:20,160 one was almost you know maybe just short of an 494 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:24,200 emergency situation of course this is budget 495 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:29,839 season so we're also working on the fiscal year 2025 budget manag report 496 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:36,000 sher's going to get up and her budget presentation and then we look forward to 497 00:51:33,240 --> 00:51:41,880 adoption next but the big news this month in administration is the Riverside 498 00:51:38,559 --> 00:51:47,160 Park progress um this is big Park project as you all know our first round 499 00:51:44,559 --> 00:51:51,640 of bids came in quite high so we had to recope the project put it back out to 500 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:56,000 bid but we have the benefit of the first set of so we knew exactly how the design 501 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:59,240 so we can maximize the funding that we have 502 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:03,960 unfortunately though while the bids were very successful and I think the second 503 00:52:00,839 --> 00:52:09,559 round worked very well we had to amend the agreement for our grant from the TDA 504 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:13,680 and I say unfortunately only because it just takes time and we're anxious to get 505 00:52:11,359 --> 00:52:18,640 the project started in a big meeting last week with all the partners the good 506 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:24,520 news is everybody supports the the res did um and has you know we all talked 507 00:52:22,119 --> 00:52:30,599 about how to expedite getting the pro started and so this is example of 508 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:34,040 Community Support around this project and everybody willing to kind CH in and 509 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:38,200 do what they can do to kind make it happen there are steps that have to take 510 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:42,920 there three parties to the agreement B County the T and the town of so we have 511 00:52:41,359 --> 00:52:49,880 to kind of go through a process to get all those but it's really goods and we 512 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:55,079 if all goes perfectly um we can potentially be contracts within that 513 00:52:52,319 --> 00:52:58,440 first so it could get pushed off a little bit but 514 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:07,240 um moving on to planning planning department and Facilities um we're we've 515 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:11,400 had some really positive feedback about some recent Communications that the 516 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:17,240 department has produced one was the steep slope pamphlet that went out 517 00:53:13,839 --> 00:53:22,680 several years ago um another was which was very unexpected was the Manu the 518 00:53:20,119 --> 00:53:28,119 manufactured housing advertisements and announcements that we shared with the 519 00:53:24,240 --> 00:53:32,119 community so liked the way it was put together they liked the information how 520 00:53:29,799 --> 00:53:36,640 was presented very clear very readable so we're trying to take that feedback 521 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:41,640 and see if there's more that we can do um in in on the communication front so 522 00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:44,680 we have standard notices that we do with the plan department so we're looking to 523 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:52,000 see how we could apply some of that feedback and those notices that people 524 00:53:48,240 --> 00:53:52,000 inform I have a mo 525 00:53:52,720 --> 00:54:01,520 feder department is also managing a very heavy increase in applications so if you 526 00:53:58,079 --> 00:54:07,480 compare the last 30 days in W to the same time period last year it's 527 00:54:04,839 --> 00:54:11,920 about increase it's about three times what we were doing now permitting 528 00:54:10,079 --> 00:54:20,240 frequently sort of waxes and wings and you'll go through valys 529 00:54:15,240 --> 00:54:25,520 and and Peaks but it is it is it does feel like things are picking up um which 530 00:54:23,319 --> 00:54:31,240 is interesting given interest rates and cost ofst right now um I don't know if 531 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:36,640 this is maybe a symptom of just a lot of projects and now just want to wait any 532 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:42,960 long happen if you total those permits just in the last three weeks it's $65 533 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:48,400 million construction value so it's it's pretty 534 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:53,119 significant but they're a little busy if you don't get a quick answer to a 535 00:54:49,720 --> 00:54:53,119 question that's 536 00:54:56,720 --> 00:55:06,480 I I think it's all over I think there's a few communities that have a little bit 537 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:11,079 more activity so teres is one Springs uh we've had a lot of at City 538 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:16,480 View and then all that been a few yeah so it's 539 00:55:14,359 --> 00:55:18,839 kind of it's kind of scattered but in these 540 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:27,280 prly um so looking at facilities of course I've mentioned the community

affect typical residents and Woodin uh 722 01:12:51,719 --> 01:13:03,360 the Medan house sales PR is is in the mid 50s today but um I pull out this 723 01:12:59,960 --> 01:13:11,400 slide that we used updated the current tax rate on a $300,000 home the resent 724 01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:11,400 would pay a total of 725 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:26,400 $2,817 sales tax 49.8 go to 726 01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:32,920 County 33 and then fire district is 5 who sets the fire 727 01:13:29,440 --> 01:13:35,920 district the fire district proposes that their 728 01:13:39,480 --> 01:13:48,239 count that's a number of fire district districts within the town of wood so 729 01:13:44,639 --> 01:13:51,719 there are multiple scenarios of this but most of our resal 730 01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:11,560 339 sales and use tax is the second highest revenue that supports Town 731 01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:16,639 operations and provided this slide just to sort of give you an idea five years 732 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:23,480 ago we were a little less than a million dollar a year sales tax 733 01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:30,520 995,000 next year we're projecting to get 2,500,000 so there's 734 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:34,960 been a lot of growth in over the last um 5 735 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:39,560 years population wise and and also 736 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:42,239 um businesses and tourist in the area that 737 01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:47,600 purchase um that's 738 01:14:48,000 --> 01:15:00,760 distribut um for several years after Co 202 2021 739 01:14:56,040 --> 01:15:05,920 we saw exord growth in the sales tax revenue that's really slowed down a very 740 01:15:03,480 --> 01:15:12,840 minimal growth over last year this year we be right our budget for this year and 741 01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:17,920 we projected a very small increase for next 742 01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:22,600 year I'm curious about the in March is that December collections I I put that 743 01:15:21,639 --> 01:15:28,679 on there because it's kind of interesting to see we reive sales tax 744 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:33,920 monthly so we can we can kind of show where we were each month collection 745 01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:40,719 marks there I think you know that's there's a lot of spring break travel in 746 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:46,840 March and people spending money on um holidays and things of that nature is 747 01:15:44,159 --> 01:15:56,000 what I believe up in March we always see a decline in May and then goes back up 748 01:15:50,719 --> 01:16:00,880 in so um I find those things with that kind 749 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:03,880 of so far this yearely 750 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:15,400 the so um in total we we adopt our Revenue budget by major source of so 751 01:16:12,600 -->

side you'll see a similar growth pattern in 756 01:16:48,480 --> 01:16:55,679 expenditures from over the last five years the red in the last year 757 01:16:53,239 --> 01:17:01,840 represents the expansion things that are not part of our base 758 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:01,840 operating budget year over 759 01:17:02,080 --> 01:17:12,320 year and that includes the $600,000 reserve 760

expect it to be that 788 01:20:30,480 --> 01:20:43,199 High I mean is there any way that cona less than that don't know so um 789 01:20:40,480 --> 01:20:49,960 just that number is just glaring to me so is there any chance that it be 70% of 790 01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:54,840 that well it kind ofi so weily 791 01:21:00,239 --> 01:21:02,480 and this 792 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:12,120 is we 793 01:21:13,060 --> 01:21:16,139 [Music] 794 01:21:17,639 --> 01:21:29,320 this a local person that does this or is a national someone out of DC 795 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:29,320 it could be so we 796

1 and2 Acres 833 01:26:57,199 --> 01:27:02,639 off the gold Marshall Road from transitional District 834 01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:08,800 to AR 2 it's pin number is on the agenda I 835 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:14,560 don't any repat that may introduction 836 01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:22,639 here speaking here 837 01:27:17,280 --> 01:27:26,480 onine anyway uh as you said it's a 1.45 Acres uh it says on the tax card of old 838 01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:30,440 Marshall Highway uh but as we move to the map 839 01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:36,600 you'll see this is kind of like an island that's inside another property 840 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:42,320 that's kind of back from the back 40 of a large attractive land that's 841 01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:48,280 surrounded by r21 so as the way orientation you see uh future i26 f the 842 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:55,360 center right of the screen uh all the red zoning to the far right is weille 843 01:27:51,520 --> 01:28:02,520 Road uh that's CS and of course you see you hop the highway and you got this big 844 01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:07,639 green r21 area uh that is actually that's about 100 Acre parcel that's the 845 01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:14,840 campfire lodging track a big portion of that undeveloped and we have a couple 846 01:28:10,480 --> 01:28:23,719 three or four little islands of land and the town I believe got this correct 28 a 847 01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:29,639 donation and it it's really uh hard to get to I'll photos you'll see it's 848 01:28:27,080 --> 01:28:35,040 really an island with woodlands and very steep um I walk went up there to post a 849 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:38,960 sign actually went with me it's very rugged it's probably more similar to 850 01:28:37,440 --> 01:28:46,679 what you find in really like verant Matana or 851 01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:52,239 Serenity than here that's transitional uh there's two homes uh 852 01:28:49,719 --> 01:28:59,199 just to the Northwest uh you have to walk down in there that black line 853 01:28:56,119 --> 01:29:03,800 doesn't really there like Trails or loging roads there's not really a way to 854 01:29:01,440 --> 01:29:10,679 get in there to I can find so that's the context is it's very 855 01:29:07,440 --> 01:29:18,280 ruged there's no water lines there's no sewer lines um a transitional zoning 856 01:29:14,639 --> 01:29:25,000 District in this location the back um that's going to light on the map is more 857 01:29:20,480 --> 01:29:30,119 like spot zoning so if we were to dispose of the property the town where 858 01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:35,000 to pursue that aside this KN this know the case it would be good to have that 859 01:29:32,639 --> 01:29:40,320 more aligned with what's already around it and limit potential uses so as you go 860 01:29:38,639 --> 01:29:45,520 through a jewel Z you want to think about what can go in there is it not 861 01:29:43,440 --> 01:29:50,719 just the my right the special use permits and The Limited uses r21 is 862 01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:56,880 going to be one home say one home not sub any F 863 01:29:57,719 --> 01:30:06,119 either can you confirm it does have an easement of some kind yeah there is an 864 01:30:03,480 --> 01:30:11,080 easement I think Mar worked on some research sh too I think we haven't 865 01:30:09,199 --> 01:30:18,760 mapped it we haven't had survey but there was an easement in the chain 866 01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:22,719 title but it Tak a lot of more effort to get in 867 01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:29,679 there but that allows it to be marketed it it does sounds like 868 01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:37,080 it and as we said last month we do have a feature L map now so just as a way of 869 01:30:33,199 --> 01:30:42,320 showing that M to you uh this live tan area that surrounds it is residential 870 01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:49,880 too it's more of a low medium residential district or land use area 871 01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:55,960 typified by Dex single family on larger lots and public ruged areas 872 01:30:54,080 --> 01:31:00,000 see here on the bottom right kind of getting the sunny Ridge you know that's 873 01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:03,880 a little higher elevation area as well so that kind of matches up 874 01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:10,760 here there any questions so far I'm trying to go fast but it's should be 875 01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:14,280 hope straightforward uh so just some 876 01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:19,880 considerations when you're thinking about this track uh going to r21 would 877 01:31:17,199 --> 01:31:25,960 eliminate the spot zoning of TR uh it would be more conducive to the 878 01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:33,360 work development time if somebody was build back there cuz then there's no 879 01:31:29,119 --> 01:31:42,960 water or sewer nearby uh the slope is 38 and a half% that's pretty delal steep uh 880 01:31:38,440 --> 01:31:48,639 and outside of the fact that it's landl Ste sub fur you have to have one 881 01:31:55,080 --> 01:32:02,520 and the plan board justment did review it at their April 2 meeting uh didn't 882 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:07,040 have a lot of questions about the track of the transitional District itself and 883 01:32:05,480 --> 01:32:15,119 what how to get there with r21 they F Pur so they V in 884 01:32:12,119 --> 01:32:15,119 favored 885 01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:23,480 Z and sta with that just that sping 886 01:32:27,280 --> 01:32:35,199 any other questions for me Rush lot of 887 01:32:32,719 --> 01:32:40,600 presentations I have one for Shon do you have at this time can any prediction on 888 01:32:38,280 --> 01:32:40,600 what a 889 01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:55,800 Lis we' also like 890 01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:11,400 questions okay no other questions we'll hold a public hearing it is 6:35 p.m. I 891 01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:11,400 don't know if anybody sign the list it 892 01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:22,600 doesn't all right is there anyone in the room anyone public hearing wish to 893
