[3.
Public Works Quarterly Department Update by Interim Public Works Director Patrick Nolan
]PUBLIC WORKS. DIRECTOR PATRICK NUMBER ONE. GOOD EVENING, MADAM MAYOR COUNCIL, MR BROWN. UM PATRICK NOLAN IN HER OWN PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR DO THE PUBLIC WORKS AND UTILITIES QUARTERLY REPORT. AND AS YOU DON'T HAVE IT IN THE PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR FOR A VERY LONG TIME. SO RIGHT NOW, I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS. I KNOW YOU DON'T KNOW, BOY. YOU GOT TO GET IT. YOU GOTTA GET IT NOW GETTING UP TO SPEED. FIRST SLIDE IS THE TEAM THAT WE HAVE OVER UTILITIES. THAT'S WHERE I'VE BEEN WORKING UNTIL JUST A COUPLE WEEKS DOING BOTH NOW, BUT I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO WHAT I DO WITHOUT THE GENTLEMAN THAT ARE IN THAT PICTURE. THAT'S THE TEAM THAT DOES MOST OF THE WORK TO UTILITIES DEPARTMENT. OVER IN PUBLIC WORKS. OUR BIGGEST PROJECT RIGHT NOW IS A BOOK APARTMENT DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT. THAT IS FUNDED BY AN F D O T GRANT. THE CONTRACT AMOUNT WAS $2,290,904.85. AS OF 7 20 TO THE PROJECT IS 58.4% COMPLETE.AND AS A DOLLAR AMOUNT. THAT'S ONE MILLION $14,241.72 SO. THE PROJECT IS MOVING ALONG. IT IS ON TIME WE EXPECT IT WILL BE DONE BY DECEMBER OF THIS YEAR. WE ALSO HAD A LITTLE PUBLIC WORKS PROJECT GOING THAT HAD STARTED TO A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, AND IT JUST ACTUALLY COMPLETED THAT'S THE ROLE IN CANAL OVER BY SANDY OAKS. THE CANAL WAS BLOCKED UP, NEEDED
[00:10:01]
SOME WORK. SO WE HAD ONE OF THE LOCAL CONTRACTORS COME IN AND CLEAN IT OUT SO THAT WHEN THE STORMS HAPPEN HURRICANES, IT'LL FLOW THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO. WE'RE ALSO IN THE PLANNING STAGES FOR A COUPLE OF PROJECTS. HMM. FIRST ONE IS THE UPTOWN DRAINAGE AND ROADWAY REPAIR PROJECT. IN A DESIGN PHASE THAT WAS ALSO AN F D. O T GRANT. TOTAL PROJECT TO $700,000. SO IT'S THE GRANTS 350,000 AND VILLAGE MATCH OF 350,000. YOU MIGHT SUSAN. YELLOW THERE'S TWO COLORS AND THERE'S NO LEGEND . YELLOW IS SEMINOLE. THAT'S ANOTHER PROJECT. THAT'S NOT PART OF THE UPTOWN DRAINAGE PROJECT. SO THIS PROJECT IS ALL IN PURPLE . OKAY, THANK YOU. THE PART THAT YOU SAW IN YELLOW IN THE LAST SLIDE IS ACTUALLY SEMINOLE. SEMINOLE DRIVE IS, UH, KIND OF IT'S A REPAVING PROJECT AND DRAINAGE THAT IS ALSO IN THE DESIGN PHASE. IT'S PART OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD REVITALIZATION THAT WAS A CEO GRANT CDBG. TOTAL PROJECT IS $758,000. 700 OF IT IS COMING FROM THE D E O AND THE VILLAGE MATCHES 58,000 AND LIKE I SAID, WE ARE IN THE DESIGN PHASE OF THAT THEY JUST STARTED. BACK TO TEAM. UM EVERYTHING I DO IS TEAM WITHOUT MY TEAM. WITHOUT TEAMWORK WITH THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS IN THE VILLAGE. WE WOULDN'T BE DOING WHAT WE'RE DOING. IT'S NOT JUST ME. HMM. HMM. EXCUSE ME. GETTING TO UTILITIES JUST HIGHLIGHTED A FEW PROJECTS THAT WE'VE DONE SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE. THE FIRST ONE IS A HIGH SERVICE PROMPTS WHEN I ARRIVED. THERE ARE THREE HIGH SERVICE BUMPS OVER THE WATER PLANT. THERE WAS ONLY ONE THAT WAS FUNCTIONING. THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE THAT WAS FUNCTIONING HALFWAY. THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE THAT WAS MISSING WASN'T EVEN THERE. THAT WOULD BE THIS POSITION THERE. WE HAVE SENSE AND I HAVE TO STATE AT THE PUMPS WERE ALREADY ON THE WAY WHEN I GOT HERE. I JUST MADE SURE THAT THEY GOT INSTALLED. SO THE ONE THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT REPLACED ONE THAT WAS MISSING. EXCUSE ME , THEN WE HAVE A SECOND ONE IN HIS HANDS, SO WE HAVE TWO BRAND NEW HIGH SERVICE PUMPS. ONE OF THE OTHER ONES THAT WERE REMAINING ARE STILL THERE. SO WE HAVE MUCH MORE CAPACITY AND CAPABILITY THAN WE DID WHEN I GOT HERE. AH! OTHER EXAMPLES. SOME OF THINGS WE WERE DOING. WE HAD A CONTROL PANEL FELT ONE OF OUR LIFT STATIONS, SO WE ARE REPLACED WITH THE BRAND NEW PANEL. SO THAT WE CAN IMPROVE RELIABILITY. EVERYBODY TALKS ABOUT CAPACITY. WE ALSO NEED TO BE RELIABLE. SO THAT'S WHAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO TODAY AND TAKE CARE OF IT IN HOUSE. AS MUCH AS WE CAN. YES LAST OR THIS SLIDE HERE IS REPAIRS TO INFRASTRUCTURE. WE'RE DOING WHATEVER WE CAN LIKE I JUST SAID IN HOUSE THAT'S ONE OF OUR CURRENT EMPLOYEES WHO WAS HIRED BACK IN FEBRUARY. FORTUNATELY, WHEN HE GOT HERE, HE HAD EXPERIENCE WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH ONE OF THE LIFT STATIONS AT THE WASTEWATER PLANTS, SO WE DID WHAT WE COULD IN HOUSE. WE DIDN'T NEED A CONTRACTOR TO PULL THE PIPE BECAUSE YOU'LL SEE ON THE AGENDA. I'M GOING TO BE ASKING YOU FOR A CRANE TRUCK. PICTURE HERE SHOWS THE CRANE TRUCK THAT WE HAD TO RENT. TO FINISH THE JOB, BUT WE STILL DID IT MORE COST EFFECTIVELY BY US DOING THE WORK. THAT'S IT FOR THE QUARTERLY REPORT. ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? SO MR NOLAN? WHAT WAS THE NEW LIFT STATION? LOCAL LOCATION IS THAT THAT'S ACTUALLY OLD EXISTING LIVE STATION THAT WE'RE REHABBING. THAT'S DOWN AT THE WASTEWATER PLANT. WE CALL THAT THE FRONT LIFT STATION.THAT'S RIGHT ON 168TH OKAY APART. AND THAT SAID TO WRITE OR THAT'S ONLY ONE LEFT STATION.
THAT'S ONE LIFT STATION. WE HAVE 13 LEFT STATIONS TOTAL. OKAY, 13. OKAY WELL, FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU, MR NOLAN. FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO, UM, YOU KNOW , I HAVE BEEN A HUGE ADVOCATE FOR THE WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM SINCE THE GECKO. GET BUYING THE SYSTEM. YOU KNOW, WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WE WERE BUYING UNTIL WE OPEN A CAN OF WORMS, AND I GOT THE TOUR WHEN WE BURST ACTUALLY BOUGHT IT, AND I SAW HOW BAD IT WAS AND HOW OLD OUTDATED AND MANUAL WORK THAT THE EMPLOYEES WOULD DO TO FIX SOMETHING. SO II APPRECIATE EVERYTHING YOU DO. A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T SEE IT, BUT YOU'RE DOING A LOT OF THINGS INTERNALLY FIRST, BEFORE YOU CAN GO OUT AND DO ALL THE REST OF THE STUFF, BUT I KNOW WE'RE IN GOOD HANDS WITH YOU BECAUSE I CAN SAY YOU CAME IN HERE AND YOU
[00:15:08]
LITERALLY. YOU'RE ROCKING IT IN THE WATER DEPARTMENT. UM AND I JUST WANTED TO ASK WHEN WOULD THIS, UH, FORUM OR DURING THE DESIGN PHASE. ARE WE GOING TO DO THE FOR THE UPTOWN RESIDENTS AFTER THE DESIGN PHASE. OKAY, SO THE ANSWER THAT QUESTION WE WERE FUNDED TO DO THE UPTOWN, GRANGER WROTE. WAIT REPAIR DESIGN, SO THAT'S UNDERWAY RIGHT NOW. THERE IS NO FUNNY FOR CONSTRUCTION. AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER IT WILL BE SHOVEL READY, SO WE ANTICIPATE ON ON APPLYING FOR STATE APPROPRIATION FOR THAT, FOR THAT PARTICULAR ONE. AND WE'VE ALSO APPLIED, UM, WITH ANOTHER GRANT.THAT'S OUT THERE NOW. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER OUR LOBBYISTS CONTACTED US WITH ANOTHER GRANT OPPORTUNITY AND TWO MEETINGS AGO WE ASKED THE COUNCIL FOR PERMISSION TO SUBMIT THAT AS PART OF THAT. SO THAT'S THAT NOW THE SEMINOLE REPAVING PROJECT. IT'S IN DESIGN RIGHT NOW, BUT WE AS SOON AS WE FINISH WITH DESIGN WILL CONTINUE ONWARD CONSTRUCTION OF SEMINOLE PAVING AND WILL BE ALSO REPLACING THE EMERGENCY BACKUP GENERATOR WITH LIFT STATION OR MAGNOLIA STREET IN THE BOOK OF PARK AREA SELF WHAT THAT DIDN'T ACTUALLY ANSWER MY QUESTION IN REGARDS OF REMEMBER, WE WANT TO GO OUT TO THE COMMUNITY ASKED THE RESIDENTS BEFORE WE GO IN AND DO WHAT WE DID IN BUDDHA PARK BECAUSE WE IT WAS A LEARNING PHASE WITH BOOK OF PARK. RIGHT SO I DID SEE THAT AND I LIVE ON ONE OF THE STREETS THAT AND I'VE ALREADY YOU KNOW, EARLY IN THIS STAGE, WE ACTUALLY WE HAVE TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE ENGINEERING FIRM FIRST, SO WE'RE ACTUALLY NOT IN DESIGN. BUT I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED. ALTHOUGH I HAVE BEEN A PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR FOR A SHORT TIME BECAUSE OF THE UTILITIES HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A CAR PARK PROJECTS AND STAY ONE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, AND WE WILL TRY OUR BEST NOT TO DO THAT AGAIN. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE'S ON THE SAME PAGE FROM RESIDENTS TO, UH, STAFF TO COUNCIL MEMBERS AND JUST TO MAKE IT EASY RIDE SMOOTH THROUGH THIS PHASE. UM AND SO, SO I THINK THAT IF WE CAN MAKE SURE WE HAVE AT LEAST TWO UM, WHERE, YOU KNOW WORKSHOPS FOR THE RESIDENTS AND THE UPTOWN AREA OR THE AREA WHERE IT'S GOING TO AFFECT UM, BASICALLY, IT'S LIKE ALL. THIS WAY. I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING ON THIS SIDE OF THE TRACKS, RIGHT ANYTHING BY CIRCLE K. EVERYTHING THIS ONE? YES. SUSAN GILLES. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. UM, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I UNDERSTOOD THAT CORRECTLY THE UPTOWN DRAINAGE AND ROADWAY REPAIR PROJECT, THE DESIGN PHASE THAT IS FUNDED OR NOT FUNDED, FUNDED . OKAY, SO JUST THE DESIGN PHASE IS 700,000. YES, MA'AM. OKAY SO THEN WHAT IS THE ACTUAL PROJECT ? WHAT DO WE ANTICIPATE THE ACTUAL PROJECT? PROBABLY AROUND SEVEN MILLION. USUALLY, IT'S UH , YOU KNOW, PERCENTAGE OF 7 700,000 FOR DESIGN. IT'S GOING TO BE IN THE $7 MILLION RANGE, PLUS WELL, DEPENDS ON THE INFLATION AND WHEN WE BREAK AROUND. AND CURRENTLY THAT IS UNFUNDED. WE HAVE FUNDED YES, IT'S UNFUNDED. SO ONCE WE GET DESIGN IN, THEY'LL GIVE AN ENGINEERS ESTIMATE ESTIMATE WILL BE BASED ON EVERYTHING. INDUSTRY STANDARDS, INFLATIONARY ISSUES AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS AND THEN WILL DO RFP OR BID. PUT IT OUT THE BED. WHEN THOSE BEARDS COME BACK, THE NET WILL DETERMINE WHAT THE CONTRACTORS PRICES AND THAT WOULD BE THE PRICE. NOW IS THAT ALSO FOR MOVING ON TO THE SEMINAL DRIVIN MAGNOLIA GENERATOR PROJECT. THIS IS JUST THE DESIGN PHASE OF $758,000. IT'S JUST THE DESIGN PHASE. IT'S NO, IT'S. IT'S CONSTRUCTION AS WELL. CONSTRUCTION AS WELL, OKAY, SAYS DESIGN PHASE JUST AS THE OTHER ONE DOES. SO THIS IS THE WHOLE PROJECT PAID FOR SOMEONE IS YES.
YES, MA'AM, OKAY. THEY BOTH SAID THE SAME THING. THAT'S THE REASON I WAS OFF. THANK YOU. MR NOLAN OUT OF THE 13 LIFT STATIONS. HOW MANY OF YOU SAY WE'RE NEW ALREADY? OR YOU WHAT'S REBUILT AND WHAT'S NEW? WE ARE. WE HAVEN'T REBUILT. WE HAVE REPLACED PUMPS AND THREE OF THE LIST STATION SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE. MHM MHM. IT'S AN OLDER SYSTEM. IT'S NOT UNLIKE A LOT OF OTHER SYSTEMS THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY. THE EQUIPMENT IS OLD, UM SO PRESENTLY OF THE 13. WE REPLACED SIX PUMPS TWO IN EACH OF THREE SLIPS STATIONS. AND THEN WHEN WE REPLACED THE PUMPS AND ONE LIFT STATION, WE ENCOUNTERED CONTROL PROBLEMS. WE REPLACE THE CONTROL PANEL AS WELL. SO WHAT WE'RE DOING IS REPLACING THINGS AS WE COME AS YOU COME UP ON IT.
[00:20:09]
TRYING TO FORMULATE A PLAN FOR THE FUTURE AND THEN ALSO INSTITUTING PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SO THAT SOME OF THESE THINGS THAT WE'RE RUNNING INTO WE DON'T SEE AGAIN OKAY WITH PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THIS REPORT. YOU'RE DOING AMAZING JOB . THANK YOU. ECHO MISS JANET ARE APPRECIATE YOU. OKAY NEXT IS THE E P. A BROWNFIELDS GRANT[4.
EPA Brownfields Grant Overview
]OVERVIEW. YES WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE THAT'S ONLINE FROM, I THINK, MISS STEPHANIE HEIGHT. SHE'S WITH THE TREASURE COAST REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL, AND SHE'S HERE TO SHE'S HERE TO DISCUSS THE E P A BROWNFIELD BRAND THAT THEY WERE AWARDED. MISS HYDE, ARE YOU ARE YOU THERE? YES I AM. THANK YOU. HI UM AM STEPHANIE HIGH AND THE ECONOMIC ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND INTERGOVERNMENTAL PROGRAMS DIRECTOR FOR THE TREASURE COAST REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL. AND THANK YOU FOR INVITING ME HERE TODAY FOR ME TO GIVE YOU AN OVERVIEW OF OUR PROGRAM AND HOW WE'RE GOING TO ASSIST THE VILLAGE AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITHOUT THE AND I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL SHE'S DONE. HELPING US GET THE GRANT AND THEN IDENTIFYING SITES THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO, UH, TO DO SO, UM, SO I JUST FIRST, UM BROWNFIELDS, AND NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS ON THE GROUND TROOPS PROGRAM IS BASICALLY ALL ABOUT ADDING VALUE TO YOUR COMMUNITY. SO IT'S LOOKING AT THE ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS THAT YOU GET. BUT ALSO , IT LOOKS AT SOCIAL JUSTICE ISSUES. UM, AFFORDABLE HOUSING. CREATING JOBS JUST REDEVELOPING THIS PROPERTIES TO ADD VALUE BACK TO YOUR COMMUNITY. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. HE STILL JUST REALLY QUICKLY. UM I TRUNCATED THE DEFINITIONS HERE. I JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU THAT BROWNFIELD DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT THERE IS CONTAMINATION SO BOTH THE FEDERAL AND STATE LEVELS THEY BOTH SAY THAT BOTH OF THEM SAY IT'S THAT PERCEPTION OF OR UM, YOU KNOW, IT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACTUAL AND PERCEIVED SO THERE CAN BE, UM SOME CONTAMINATION THERE, BUT IT'S ALSO THE THINGS THAT ARE PERCEIVED, UM AH, WANTED TO THINGS LIKE I SHOWED THESE TWO PICTURES BECAUSE WE'VE GOT THE JUNKYARD WITH THE CARS AND EVERYBODY'S ALL THAT MUST BE A BROWNFIELD SITE, HOWEVER, THAT UM, BUSINESS HAS BEEN VERY DILIGENT AND BEEN VERY ENVIRONMENTALLY CAREFUL WITH THEIR WORK THAT THAT PROPERTY MAY BE CLEAN. BUT THEN YOU LOOK AT A PRISTINE GOLF COURSE AND SAY, OH, OF COURSE, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. BUT THEN YOU HAVE THE ARSENIC AND THE CHEMICALS AND EVERYTHING ELSE. THAT HAVE HAPPENED, UM AND SO YOU ARE, YOU KNOW, SO THAT WOULD POSSIBLY NEED SOME CONTAMINATION CLEANUP. SO, UM, NEXT WEEK. SO WHY BOTHER WITH BROWNFIELDS? THERE ARE MANY REASONS UM CLEAN, UNENCUMBERED PROPERTIES ARE WORTH MORE THAN CONTAMINATED PROPERTIES, SO THERE IS A GREATER MARKET VALUE TO THOSE. AND UM COURSE THEN THERE'S A GREATER TAX POTENTIAL. UM IT REDUCES PRESSURE TO DEVELOP YOUR GREEN FIELDS AND GOING INTO YOUR SYSTEM FARMLAND . THIS IS HOWARD BROWN. CAN YOU JUST CAN YOU HOLD FOR A MINUTE? JUST A FEW SECONDS. WE'RE HAVING SOME TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY HERE.OKAY? THE FRONT SCREEN WENT OUT. HOLD ON. DOES SOMEBODY HAVE AN IPHONE WITH THE NAME DANA, TOO? TURN YOUR IPHONE OFF. PAYMENT. ANYBODY ON AIRPLAY? BY ACCIDENT. IT MIGHT BE OVERRIDING THE SIGNAL. OKAY? WE'RE LEARNING A LOT WITH TECHNOLOGY, RIGHT? ALRIGHT, WELL BE TRYING TO GO, OKAY? ALL RIGHT. GO AHEAD. MISS HEIGHT. SORRY FOR THE INTERRUPTION. NO PROBLEM SO YOU CAN HEAR ME, RIGHT? CORRECT WE CAN HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR. OKAY GREAT. OKAY UM OTHER REASONS ARE SOME OF THESE BROWN. STILL SITES ARE GOING TO BE INFO SITES, SO THEY'RE ALREADY LOCATED IN AREAS WHERE THERE'S EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE LIKE YOUR POWER. YOUR SYRIA ROADS SO REDEVELOPING THOSE SITES CAN BE LESS EXPENSIVE. OF COURSE, CLEANING UP BROWNFIELDS REDUCES YOUR EXPOSURE TO HAZARDS AND PROTECTS THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND IT TOOK PROTECTS THE ENVIRONMENT. AND THEN, UH, PROPERLY DEVELOPED SITES CAN PROVIDE NEEDED JOBS AND SERVICES AND THEN ALSO CLEANING UP THESE SITES. UM KICKING, ELIMINATE I SOURCE IN YOUR COMMUNITY AND THEN ALSO GIVE THE COMMUNITY A SENSE OF PRIDE. SO THE BROWNFIELDS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO BE A CATALYST FOR REVITALIZATION IN SOME OF THESE TARGETED REDEVELOPMENT AREAS THAT YOU'VE SEEN, SO IT'S ALL ABOUT THE END USE LIKE WHAT ARE WE GOING TO USE THIS FOR? WILL IT BE INDUSTRIAL WILL BE COMMERCIAL, MAYBE SOME AFFORDABLE HOUSING OR SOME PARTS FOR THE COMMUNITY. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS IS JUST A QUICK OVERVIEW OF COUNCILS PROGRAM WE STARTED IN 2003. WE ESTABLISHED A REVOLVING LOAN 1000 FUND IN 2005. SO WHAT WE DO IS WE
[00:25:07]
PROVIDE THAT TECHNICAL AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO ADDRESS THE CONTAMINATION ON THESE PROPERTIES. UM WE, UH, THE PROGRAM COMPANIES BOTH ASSESSMENT, AND THEN IF WE DO FIND THINGS WE CAN DO THE REMEDIATION THROUGH THE LOAN PROGRAM. WE ACTUALLY BEEN RECEIVED ALMOST $6 MILLION FROM EPA. SO IT'S BEEN A VERY SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM AND THE CURRENT GRANT THAT WE HAVE NOW IS FOR $500,000. NOW. I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY THAT IT IS A COMMUNITY WIDE GRANT. SO THAT MEANS IT WILL COVER. YOU KNOW, I CAN SPEND THAT MONEY WITHIN THE FOUR COUNTIES THAT WE ARE FROM INDIAN RIVER TO PALM BEACH COUNTY. HOWEVER YOU KNOW, SO WE'VE NOT ENCUMBERED ANY FUNDS AT THIS POINT TO ANY PROJECTS YET, BUT PRIORITY SITES WAR IDENTIFIED AN INDIAN TOWN AS PART OF OUR GREEN APPLICATIONS, SO WE HAVE IDENTIFIED SOME SITES THAT WE DO WANT TO DO. UM, I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT IT BUT IT YOU KNOW THE COMMUNITY COMMUNITY IS FOR COUNTIES. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. ONE OF OUR PROGRAMS I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT OR ONE OF THE PROJECTS THAT WE DID IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW WE USED MANY DIFFERENT PIECES. WE USED, UM, FUNDING. WE DIDN'T, UH PROVIDED FINANCIAL RESOURCES, TECHNICAL INSISTENCE AND HELPING , UM, TO GET A BROWNFIELD DESIGNATION FOR THE PROPERTY. WE PROVIDED LOANS THAT WERE VERY QUICKLY PAID BACK. SO THIS IS A FORMER POWER PLANT IN THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE. IT WAS DECOMMISSIONED IN 2008 DEMOLISHED IN 2009, AND THEN FROM 2011 TO 2019. WE DID A LOT OF ASSESSMENT AND READING MEDIATION OF THE PROPERTY, SO THERE'S A PICTURE THERE AT THE TOP, RIGHT IS THE CLEANED UP PROPERTY AND THEN DOWN TO THE RIGHT HAND CORNER IS A DEVELOPMENT THAT THEY'RE PROPOSING TO BRING IN SO YOU CAN SEE HOW DOING THESE THINGS CLEANING THESE PROPERTIES UP. UM IS A GREAT, UH, CATALYST FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR AN AREA SO THE GOAL OF ONE OF THEIR GOALS OF THEIR MASTER PLAN THAT THEY DID IN 2008 WAS TO TAKE THIS PROPERTY AND DO SOMETHING WITH IT. AT COMMERCIAL. I'VE RETAILING JUST BASICALLY FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. UM SOME THINGS AREN'T YOU KNOW, IT'S SOMETIMES NOT JUST ABOUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. THIS IS A FORMER WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT IN THE VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH. UM, IT WAS DECOMMISSIONED AS YOU CAN SEE THE PICTURES OF THE TOP. THOSE ARE ALL THAT BEFORE. UM AND I SWORE A DANGER, SOME CONTINUING NATION THAT NEED TO BE CLEANED UP AND THREW SOME EXCITEMENT, ASSESSMENT AND RE MEDIATION ACTIVITIES. AND ALSO WE DID SOME REDEVELOPMENT PLANNING FOR THEM.IT WAS TURNED INTO A COMMUNITY PARK THAT HAS A MARINA PLAYGROUND PICNIC AREA. SO THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW YOU CAN TAKE THAT COMMUNITY EYESORE AND DEVELOPED INTO A COMMUNITY ASKED NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO AS I SAID THE CURRENT GRANT, UM, WE HAVE IDENTIFIED SOME PRAIRIE SITES IN THE BOOK OF PARK NEIGHBORHOOD AND I'M MORE FILM BOULEVARD. UM IT'S GOING TO BE BUILDING ON YOUR PLANNING ON VISION PLANS THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE FOR YOUR VILLAGE, SO WE'LL BE WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH STAFF THERE TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE'RE DOING THERE IS WHAT YOU WANT THEIR, UM WE ARE JUST COMING IN, BASICALLY WHERE THERE FOR TO KEEP THE FUNDING THE ASSESSMENT TO DO THE PLANNING TO DO THAT ADMINISTRATIVE KIND OF WORK FOR THE GRANT. UM HOWEVER WE YOU KNOW WE WERE GOING TO BE WORKING VERY CLOSELY. STEPH TO HELP DO THAT SITE IDENTIFICATION TO HELP YOU, UH, PUBLIC OUTREACH. IT'S VERY BIG THING FOR EPA. THEY WANT TO DO A LOT OF PUBLIC OUTREACH, SO WE'LL BE DOING A LOT OF THAT TO TALK TO YOU. THE COUNCIL AND THE COMMUNITY OF WHAT DO WE WANT TO DO WITH THESE SITES? AND WHAT CAN WE DO TO, YOU KNOW, TO MAKE A BETTER ASSET FOR THE COMMUNITY. SO THAT'S EVERYTHING. IN A NUTSHELL. UM, THE NEXT SLIDE HAS MY CONTACT INFORMATION. UM IT WILL BE. YOU KNOW, AS WE STARTED GETTING MORE INTO PROJECTS AND REALLY IDENTIFYING THINGS AND WORKING THROUGH THE GRANT. FIA HAS ASKED ME TO COME BACK AND WE'LL GET INTO MORE SPECIFIC OF DIFFERENT PROJECTS THAT THAT WE WILL BE DOING FOR THE VILLAGE. SO DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IT WAS A LOT, BUT NO, THANK YOU. AND THANK YOU, ANTHEA. THANK YOU FOR WORKING WITH HER. UM, TO BRING THIS SO MUCH NEEDED. THANK YOU.

]WELCOME RESOLUTION RESOLUTION OF THE VILLAGE COUNCIL, THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, FLORIDA, ESTABLISHING A PROPOSED MILITARY FOR THE LEVEE OF ADVIL OR, UM, TAXES FOR FISCAL YEAR, 2022 2023 SPECIFYING THE COMPUTED ROLLBACK RATE, PROVIDING FOR THE DATE TIME AND PLACE THE PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE TENTATIVE MILITARY INTENDED BUDGET. AND TO ADOPT A FINAL MILITARY RATE AND FINAL BUDGET, PROVIDING FOR TRANSMITTAL TO THE MARTIN COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER PROVIDING FOR ADVERTISEMENT OF THE FINAL HEARING TO ADOPT A FINAL MILITARY RATE AND FINAL BUDGET. PROVIDING FOR RECITALS AND EFFECTIVE DATE. WELL MADAM MAYOR, MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL WE THIS IS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT THAT THE STATE OF FLOW REQUIRES THAT WE SET A MILITARY AND SET THE PUBLIC HEARINGS. I'LL HAVE MR MIKE FLORIO COME UP AND GIVE US A BRIEF PRESENTATION. IF YOU'D LIKE. WE DID HAVE A BUDGET PRESENTATION BACK ON. JULY. 21ST JULY. 21ST IN OUR NEXT BUDGET MEETING WILL BE SCHEDULED, OR BUDGET WORKSHOP WILL BE SCHEDULED ON AUGUST 18TH. THANK YOU, MADAM CLERK AND, UM, AND SO BEFORE MIKE COMES UP AND WALK US THROUGH SOME OF THE STUFF, I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR. THAT WE THE MILLS RATE WILL BE THE SAME AS IT WAS LAST YEAR. THEY GET LOUD AND CLEAR, SO WE'LL HAVE MIGHT COME UP AND SEE IF HE WORKS. THANK YOU. MADAM MAYOR[01:00:05]
COUNCIL. UM MR MIGHT. GOOD EVENING. THE SLIDE THAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU HERE TONIGHT IS JUST A SIMPLE COMPARISON OF THE DIFFERENCES IN RATES. UM AS WE KNOW, WE HAD A DECLINE IN VALUATION REPORT EVALUATION FROM THE PROPERTY APPRAISER'S OFFICE . UM YOU KNOW, WE HAVE BEEN MOVING FORWARD WITH WORKING WITH THIS MAINTAINING THE SAME MILLAGE RATE OFFER FISCAL YOUR UPCOMING 23 AS IN WE'VE HAD FOR FISCAL YEAR, 22. UM AND THAT SLIDE THERE JUST SIMPLY SHOWS THE DIFFERENCE IN, UM, TAX IMPACT ON AN AVERAGE RESIDENT AVERAGE RESIDENT WITH THE $50,000 HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION. THE TAXABLE VALUE IS NET OF ALL, UM , EXEMPTIONS I SHOULD SAY, RELATED TO THE HOMESTEAD AGAIN. EVERYTHING WE'VE DONE THAT ARE PRESENTED TO YOU UP TO THIS POINT HAS BEEN MAINTAINING THE MILITARY RATE. YOU HEARD MR BROWN THAT HIS RECOMMENDATION THE RECOMMENDATION IS TO MAINTAIN THE MILITARY GOING FORWARD FOR FISCAL YEAR 23. BUT YOU DO HAVE THE STATUTORY AUTHORITY TO ADOPT THE ROLLBACK RATE IF YOU SO CHOOSE, BUT I JUST WANTED YOU TO SEE WHAT THE FISCAL IMPACT WOULD BE IN THIS SLIDE. BUT OTHER THAN THAT, I DIDN'T HAVE ANY OTHER COMMENTS ON THAT. THANK YOU, OKAY. AND HOW LONG MR MIKE? YOU WANT SOME? MIGHT YES, COUNCILWOMAN GIVES TIMES. THAT'S OKAY. I WAS JUST WONDERING, CAN YOU TELL US EXACTLY WHAT IS THE ROLLBACK? RIGHT OKAY. ALRIGHT. SORRY SO SOME ASSUMPTIONS HERE, SO THE ROLLBACK RATE IS THE RATE THAT IS CALCULATED TO EQUATE THE CURRENT YEAR'S ADVIL WARM REVENUE. SO, UM. IF WE HAVE DECLINING VALUES. WELL, HERE'S WHAT HAPPENS IN NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES VALUE. ADD ONE VALUE IS INCREASING. SO WHEN WE'RE ON AN INCLINE, YOU HAVE TO ROLL BACK TO MILLAGE RATE TO EQUATE THE PRIOR YEAR'S REVENUE IN THIS CASE. WHICH IS, YOU KNOW, KIND OF LIKE WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH ABOUT 10 12 YEARS AGO, DURING THE GREAT RECESSION, THINGS WERE GOING THE OTHER DIRECTION. SO THE WORLD BACK WAS REALLY KIND OF A ROLE OPERATING IF YOU WOULD, SO THAT'S REALLY WHAT WE'RE DOING IS WE'RE JUST CHANGING THE MILLAGE TO EQUATE THE CURRENT YEAR'S REVENUE. UM BUT AGAIN, EVERYTHING THAT WE PRESENTED EVIDENCE BEEN PROPOSES TO MAINTAIN THE CURRENT RATE SO THAT THEY WOULD BE A DECLINE IN OUT OF LAUREN REVENUE TO THE VILLAGE. YEAH, SO THAT THOSE NUMBERS IN RED REFLECT, UM YOU CAN LOOK AT IT TWO WAYS THAT REFLECT WHAT THE AVERAGE RESIDENTS ADVIL OR, UM, TAX SAVINGS WOULD BE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. OR IF YOU ADOPTED THE ROLL BACK RATE WITH THE INCREASE WOULD BE OKAY. SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I UNDERSTAND THIS SO BY NOT ADOPTING THE ROLLBACK, RIGHT? WE ARE ACTUALLY BRINGING IN LESS TAXES. YES LAST YEAR? YES YEAH, I THINK AND I WAS CONSERVATIVE WITH IT IN OUR IN OUR BUDGET PRESENTATION. LAST TIME I ESTIMATED ABOUT $53,000. IT COULD BE HARDER THAN THAT. IT DEPENDS ON WHAT COLLECTIONS ARE, BUT, UM, MINIMUM 53,000 LAST YEAR WE COULD WE BROUGHT IN ABOUT 82 OR 83,000 LESS SO ABOUT 100 AND 36,000 TOTAL OVER THE LIGHT OVER THE LAST NUMBER TWO CONSECUTIVE YEARS. OF LOWER ADVIL OR IN REVENUE TO EXPLAIN IT. WE'RE GOOD. OKAY AMERICA TO QUESTION UM QUESTION. COMMENT UM , THANKS SO MUCH FOR EXPLAINING THE ROAD ROLLBACK RATE. UM I SPENT A SIGNIFICANT SIGNIFICANT TIME WITH HOWARD YESTERDAY, MAKING SURE THAT I UNDERSTOOD, UH, THIS CONCEPT BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL I WILL SAY THAT WE'RE RAISING TAXES. SO THAT IS NOT THE CASE, AND WE'RE GONNA USE THE SAME MILITARY IT THAT WE USE LAST YEAR, WHICH WAS 11.6304.BUT I ALSO WANT TO NOTE IS THAT WE'VE LOST REVENUE OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS AND SO THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FUNCTION. AH IN THIS PATH THAT WE'RE GOING SO THANKS SO MUCH FOR EXPLAINING THAT. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT THAT THE PUBLIC HERE THAT AGAIN, UM WE'RE USING THE SAME MILITARY THAT WE USED LAST FISCAL YEAR. SO UM, THANKS FOR THAT, MIKE. ANY MORE QUESTIONS. ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS NO, MADAM MAYOR. WAIT OR HOW HOWARD. WE NEED TO VOTE ON THIS ONE. SORRY. CANNOT AT THE COUNCIL ARE SEVERAL COMMENDATIONS AT THE COUNCIL APPROVED THE RESOLUTION, AS IN THE AGENDA. CAN I GET A MOTION? YEAH, I MOVED THAT. WE UM UM STAY WITH THE 1.603 MILS.

]SEVEN. YES NUMBER SEVEN. MADAM MAYOR IS A APPROVAL OF THE PURCHASE OF A 2022 F 4 50 CRANE TRUCK AND THE AMOUNT OF 149,000 $11. THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IS NEEDED IN THE WATER AND SEWER DEPARTMENT. UH MISTER, UH, PAT NOLAN IS HERE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS THE FUNDS TO PAY FOR THIS WILL COME OUT OF THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN FUNDS. AND I WANT TO STAY THERE FOR THE RECORDS SO THAT THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY WOULD COME FROM TO PAY FOR THIS ITEM. PASS. BAD TRICK. GOD IS TRUCK FINALLY OR NOT YET. YOU. YOU WANT TO, YOU KNOW, EXPLAIN TO THE PUBLIC. WHAT? I THINK YOU HAD A IT WAS ONE UP THERE ON THE SCREEN. PATRICK NOLAN FOR THE RECORD. WHEN I FIRST GOT TO THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, WE DID WE DO HAVE A CRANE TRUCK. IT'S A 1991 FORD SO IT'S 30 PLUS YEARS. 31 YEARS OLD . WOW IT HAS SPENT MORE TIME INDIAN TOWN TIRES THAN IT HAS AT THE WATER PLANT, SO WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO USE IT FOR THE LAST MONTH OR SO BECAUSE OF ITS AGE AND THE LACK OF ABILITY TO GET PARTS THAT'S WHY THEY'RE THAT SLIDE WAS THERE. I'VE BEEN USING CONTRACTORS TO PULL PUMPS. SO THIS, ALTHOUGH THIS SOUNDS LIKE A LARGE PURCHASE AT $150,000. IF IT LASTS 30 YEARS AS WELL, WHICH WE TAKE CARE OF IT. IT'LL LAST 20 YEARS EASY. BUT WE WILL BE SAVING MONEY EVERY TIME WE USE THAT TRUCK. AWESOME. UH COUNCILWOMAN GIVES TIME TIME IT, UH, STONE. JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY. HOW MUCH DID YOU HAVE TO PAY THE RENT THAT CRANE TRUCK? WHAT'S THIS ABOUT? $1200 A DAY WHEN WE GET IT'S A FOUR HOUR MINIMUM, WE TRY TO USE IT THE WHOLE FOUR HOURS. BUT EVERY TIME WE RENTED THAT THAT BOOM TRUCK WAS 1200 BUCKS, THANK YOU.COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THE NEXT QUESTION IS HOW OFTEN DO YOU USE THAT TRUCK? AH THE BILL FOR STEWART PLUMBING FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS WAS OVER $13,000. SO WE USE THAT TRUCK, DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION COULD BE EVERY DAY. IT COULD BE ONCE A WEEK, SO IT'S CONSISTENT AND THAT'S JUST FOR PULLING PUMPS IN THE IN THE LIFT STATIONS. THERE ARE OTHER USES THAT WE CAN USE THAT TRUCK FOR IT TO DO THINGS MORE SAFELY. WE WILL USE IT. COUNCILWOMAN HERNANDEZ. LET'S JUST SAY WE NEEDED IT. WE NEED EQUIPMENT TO GIVE TO OUR EMPLOYEES TO DO THEIR JOB AND RIGHT. YOU KNOW, BEFORE THEY WERE DOING IT WITH MANUAL HANDS ON YES. THE TIME AND WORK TRYING TO DO THAT, WHEN YOU COULD BUY AN SOMETHING LIKE A EQUIPMENT TO DO THAT. AND DOING 15 MINUTES.
SO I THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO. SO THE TRUCK WILL BE HAVE A MULTI USE. YES, ABSOLUTELY. WE CAN ALSO USE IT TO TRAILER THAT WE PURCHASED THE JETER FACT TRAILER. WE NEED A TRUCK TO TOW IT. THAT TRUCK WILL DO THAT AS WELL. AWESOME. OH, NOT AS LOST. CAN I GET A MOTION? SECOND IT'S BEEN SO MOVED. MOVED MOTION MADE BY COUNCILMAN STONE SECOND BY BY SMEAR OLIVE FAVOR I

MINOR EXTERIOR REPAIRS, DRIVER, DRIVEWAY, REPAIRS AND, OF COURSE, ACCESSIBILITY IMPROVEMENTS, WHICH IS REALLY IMPORTANT. WHAT THE VILLAGE MANAGER IS PROPOSING IS THAT WE USED THE RP FUNDS AND GO INTO THIS AS A PILOT PROGRAM. STAFF HAS BEEN DRAFTING AND RFP. TO HAVE NOT. INTERNAL STAFF WORKED WITH THIS PROGRAM, BUT TO HAVE SOMEONE WHO CAN CREATE, MANAGE, IMPLEMENT AND RUN THE PROGRAM OUTSIDE OF THE VILLAGE, SO WE WOULD BE LOOKING FOR AN RFP HAVE ABOUT $100,000 OR SO AND A PORTION OF THAT WOULD GO TOWARDS PAYING FOR THOSE SERVICES. AND A GREATER PORTION WOULD GO TOWARDS ELIGIBLE PROJECTS LIKE THESE.AND I BELIEVE THE VILLAGE MANAGER IS LOOKING FOR YOUR AUTHORITY TO ISSUE AN RFP TO CREATE THIS PROGRAM AS A PILOT. AND HAVE SOMEONE RUN IT. AND IMPLEMENT. UM WHAT YOUR DIRECTORS WOULD BE VICE PREMIER. YEAH, I KNOW YOU SET A PRICE, BUT I MISSED IT. WHAT? WHAT IS THE TOTAL AMOUNT? BECAUSE I KNOW, UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT WHEN WE HAVE THE LIST OF, UM, PROJECTS THAT WE WERE WORKING ON. I THINK THE ORIGINAL LIST WAS LIKE 150 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. WHAT? WHAT IS THE I THINK IT WAS 200,000. I THINK IT'S 100,000.
COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS. THANK YOU. I SEE IN THEIR SOD REPLACEMENT. WHY SAW IT? THAT'S NOT IMPACTFUL FOR THE HOUSE OR A LIVING. WHY SOD? WE HAD THAT ON THERE BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE ELDERLY IN SOME NEIGHBORHOODS WHO HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR YARDS AND IT IS A NICE SORE AND IN SOME CASES, THEY'VE LET IT GET SO BAD THAT IT'S MORE WEEDS THAN SIDE. ON THE PROPERTY. OK SO SOD MEANS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO MOW IT IF THEY'RE ELDERLY. THAT KIND OF SEEMS DEFEATING THE PURPOSE. WELL WE DON'T HAVE TO SPLIT HAIRS WITH WITH THE ITEMS . THESE ARE THESE. WE RESEARCHED OTHER COMMUNITIES AND THESE ARE JUST ELIGIBLE PROJECTS THAT WE SEE THAT FROM OTHER COMMUNITIES THAT WE COULD USE HERE. BUT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DO SO, WE DON'T HAVE TO DO SOD SEEMS DEFEATING THE PURPOSE. MY NEXT QUESTION IS UM HOW MANY THE GOAL IS TO REACH OR TO ACCOMPLISH? HOW MANY REPAIRS DO YOU ANTICIPATE A CERTAIN AMOUNT. HOW MUCH IS 100,000 GONNA GET? THAT'S WHY WE CALL IT A PILOT. OKAY BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW. ALL RIGHT, AND WE THINK THAT THE $100,000 IS PROBABLY LOW. BUT IF WE DO IT RIGHT. WE CAN LEARN A LOT ABOUT THE PROGRAM QUICKLY, AND, UM, AND THE GOAL WOULD BE AFTER AFTER WE GET A FEW PEOPLE THROUGH THE PROCESS, AND WE KIND OF KNOW WHAT THE COSTS LOOK LIKE US. COSTS ARE GOING UP. UM WE CAN USE THIS WHEN WE SUBMIT OUR CDBG SMALL CITIES GREAT APPLICATION PROCESS THAT'S EVERY YEAR. SO IF THE PROGRAM IS SUCCESSFUL EVERY YEAR, WE WILL JUST PUSH YOU THROUGH THE CDBG PROGRAM, WHICH IS UP TO $700,000 A YEAR AND THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WILL BE GOING ON GOING AND THAT WOULD BE IN ADDITION TO WHAT, UH, THE SHIP PROGRAMS THEY HOUSING INITIATIVE PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM HAS, UH, BUT IN TERMS OF HOW MUCH IT JUST DEPENDS. I MEAN, I MEAN, WE CAN GIVE EXAMPLES OF $3000 TO YOU KNOW, DO WINDOWS, BUT IT REALLY DEPENDS ON EACH ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS. DO WE ANTICIPATE? DO WE LOOK AT BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE? I THINK WE HAVE A LIST SOMEWHERE OR GATHERED UP A ONE OF THE SLIDES. OF THE PEOPLE THAT ARE WILLING TO VOTE, BUT COMMUNITY PARTNERS THAT COME IN LIKE CHRIST FELLOWSHIP TO COME IN AND DO THAT WE CAN MAKE THOSE FUNDS GO FURTHER BY BY, UM ENCOURAGING THEM TO COME ALONGSIDE US IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THAT WE WOULD PUT YOU KNOW FOR SO MANY FUNDS, AND THEN MAYBE THEY DO THE LABOR AND IT WOULD BE A COST SAVINGS. SO THEN WE WOULD BE ABLE TO EXTEND THAT MONEY AND IT WOULD BE ABLE TO COVER MORE, I THINK. I THINK IT'S IT COULD BE THAT I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU KNOW WHAT EXPOSURE THAT LITIGATION WE MIGHT HAVE IF THERE'S ANOTHER INDY INVOLVED, BUT THAT'S WE HAVE TO WORK THROUGH THAT JUSTIFIED, BUT I THINK IT'S A GOOD SUGGESTION. HERNANDEZ AND THEN YOU CAN GO. COUNCILWOMAN HERNANDEZ. YES SO I THINK I HAVE LIKE TWO OR THREE QUESTIONS THE
[01:15:03]
FIRST UM HOW WOULD YOU? UM HOW WOULD RESIDENTS BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR THIS? WOULD THEY HAVE TO HAVE LIKE A LEGITIMATE LIKE YOU CAN REALLY SEE THE DAMAGE OR IT BE AN APPLICATION PROCESS. OKAY THEY FILL OUT WE KNOW CERTAIN THINGS ABOUT HIM. I'M JUST GOING TO GIVE YOU SOME GENERAL.GUIDELINES IT MIGHT NOT BE VERY SPECIFIC. OKAY I READ THE WHOLE THING. AND I HAD SOME, UM SOME OF MY. FRIENDS THAT I SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH COME BACK TO ME AND ASKED ME CERTAIN QUESTIONS.
SO RIGHT, SO THE WAY THE PROGRAM WOULD WORK. IF YOU ARE A HOMEOWNER, AND YOU LIVED IN THE VILLAGE, MAKE AN APPLICATION AND SAY, UM YOU KNOW, MY CEILING TILES ARE FALLING DOWN. AND THAT WOULD INDICATE A ROOF REPAIR. AND SO WE WOULD SEND SOMEONE OUT OR THE COMPANY THAT WE WOULD HIRE WOULD SEND SOMEONE OUT. THEY GO AND DO AN INSPECTION WOULD BE LIKE A CABLE CERTIFIED INSPECTOR. SOMEONE THAT ACTUALLY KNOWS CONSTRUCTION THOSE KINDS OF THINGS AND THEY WRITE UP A LIST AND SAY, HEY, UM THE ROOF IS LEAKING. THAT'S WHY THE CEILING IS FALLING APART, AND IT'S GOING TO BE MORE THAN ONE SQUARE. AND SO IT'S MORE THAN A MINOR REPAIR. AND THEN UM OH, AND THEN THEY THE WINDOWS IN THE FRONT ROOM. THEY NEED TO BE REPLACED. AND SO HE'LL COME BACK, AND THEY'LL SIT WITH THE COORDINATOR AND SAY, LOOK, THIS IS A ROOF ISSUE. THIS IS A UH, WINDOW ISSUE. AND THEN UM, THEN IT WILL BE APPLICATION ON THE FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS.
AND AT THAT POINT, UM YOU KNOW IT WOULD BE A DECISION MADE TO FUNDED OR NOT FUNDED BASED ON THEIR APPLICATION WHEN IT CAME IN, OR OR HOW MUCH MONEY WE HAVE IN THE PROGRAM. AND UM, I CAN'T GIVE YOU I'M JUST TRYING TO WALK YOU THROUGH ONE SCENARIO IN PARTICULAR. BUT THAT'S KIND OF HOW THAT PROGRAM WOULD WORK. THEN THEY WOULD GET THREE QUOTES ON TO DO THE JOB AND THEN OUR COORDINATOR WOULD MAKE SURE THAT THE PROGRAM IS RUNNING PROPERLY . WE WOULD WE WOULD ALSO PROPERLY PLACE A LIEN ON THEIR PROPERTY FOR, LIKE FIVE YEARS. AS A RESULT OF THAT CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIPS SO THAT IF WE WOULDN'T JUST DO REPAIRS TO SOMEONE'S HOUSE, AND THEN THEY WALKED AWAY AND SOLD IT HAVE PROTECTIONS IN THE CONTRACT. BUT ALL THAT WOULD BE PART OF. IF YOU AUTHORIZE US TO HIRE A COMPANY. WE'LL BE WORKING THROUGH WADE'S OFFICE AND GETTING ALL THAT NEXT. SO THIS RIGHT NOW IS JUST TO FOR YOU TO GO FOR RFP TO FIND THE COMPANY TO GO AHEAD AND START DESPITE THE PROGRAM, CORRECT MORE DETAILS AFTER YOU COME BACK WITH THE COMPANY OR PERSON, WHOEVER YOU SELECT THE PERSON YOU SELECT THE COMPANY AND YOU KNOW AND THEN THAT'S WHEN WE'LL KNOW MORE DETAILS ON HOW THE PROGRAM WILL BE LAUNCHED. THAT'S CORRECT. OK THANK YOU, VICE MAYOR. YEAH, I'M GLAD I'M HOWARD EMAIL AND WE'RE IN A HURRY. BECAUSE THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN FUNDS ARE TIME SENSITIVE. AND SO I JUST WANT TO PUT THAT OUT THERE. I'M GLAD HE MENTIONED ABOUT LIABILITY BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS WAY DIFFERENT THAN LIKE A, UM HABITAT FOR HUMANITY'S WHERE YOU CAN HAVE VOLUNTEERS. UM SO BECAUSE I WOULD HATE FOR ANYTHING TO HAPPEN, AND IT'S NOT DONE CORRECTLY. YOU KNOW THINGS LIKE THAT. SO, UM WELL, LET ME JUMP LICENSED PROFESSIONAL. I NEED TO SAY SOMETHING, OKAY, BECAUSE THAT'S NOT MY WHEELHOUSE . IT'S WEIGHTS, WHEELHOUSE. OKAY BUT WHAT I WAS REFERRING TO WAS , YOU KNOW IF WE HAVE SOMEONE THAT'S WORKING, ACCOMPANIED ANOTHER COMPANY THAT'S WORKING ON BEHALF OF US IF WE DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT CONTRACTUAL ATION SHIP, THEN WHATEVER THEY DO, THAT'S NOT RIGHT. WE CAN COME BACK ON US. BUT WAIT CAN TALK MORE ABOUT THAT AGREE WE NEED TO WORK. WE NEED A LOT MORE FACTS ON THE TABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE PARTICULARS OF THAT. YOU CERTAINLY THOUGH, UM, YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE WORKING THROUGH IT, AND YOU'VE IDENTIFIED A NUMBER OF PROPERTIES. THERE MAY BE OTHER THINGS OTHER THAN LICENSED WORK THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME VOLUNTEERS HELP WITH SOMETHING LIKE THAT. BUT AGAIN, WE CAN DEAL WITH THOSE IN THE PARTICULAR COME. ALRIGHT PERFECT . THANKS I JUST WANTED TO, UM TO, UM WELL, I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT IS MENTIONED, UM AS WE DEVELOP THIS PROGRAM BECAUSE I THINK EVERYONE EVERY COUNCIL MEMBER. HAS EXPRESSED, UM DOING SOMETHING LIKE THIS, SO IT'S VERY EXCITING. I'M GLAD WE'RE ABLE TO OFFER THIS TO OUR RESIDENTS. THANK YOU. SO THE FIRST LIST THAT YOU HAD UP I MEAN, I THINK THIS PROBABLY WOULD BE A BETTER LIST. FOR THE RESIDENTS TO CHOOSE TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT'S FIXED, WE'LL PROBABLY MORE MEANINGFUL AND MORE LASTING. I'M JUST SAYING WHEN YOU BRING IT BACK TO US, SO HOPEFULLY UH I MEAN, IF YOU YOU KNOW, WE CAN, WE CAN SAY LOOK LIKE SAFETY ISSUES. WE CAN SAY
[01:20:03]
WE CAN DEFINE WHAT WE WILL PAY FOR IT. WE WERE JUST GIVING YOU LIKE A LAUNDRY LIST OF WHAT WE SAW IN OUR RESEARCH WITH OTHER JURISDICTIONS BILLS, BUT IF YOU WANTED TO RESTRICT THEM ONLY TO LIFE SAFETY ISSUES LIKE NOT HAVING A WATER HEATER OR A ROOF ISSUE OR YOU KNOW, H V A. C.THOSE THINGS EVEN SEE THE DRIVEWAY. IN MY OPINION, IT COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD. BUT IT MAY NOT BE A LIFE SAFETY ISSUE, AND SO WE JUST MAKE A DECISION ON WHAT WE WANT TO PAY FOR. AND THAT TYPE OF THING SO COUNCILWOMAN HERNANDEZ. SO WE'RE EXPECTING THIS TO COME. FACTORY COUNCIL. IRAN LIKE BE LIVE IN NOVEMBER, LIKE OKAY? LET ME QUALIFY MY REMARKS BECAUSE I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING WITH MR MR BROWN BECAUSE I KNOW HOW THINGS TAKE. PLUS SO YOU'RE PRESENTING THIS SO THAT WE CAN CREATE THE PROGRAM AND RFP GOES OUT? YES PERSON COMES BACK TO THE COUNCIL, PERSON AUTHORIZED OR CONTRACT. AND THEN AFTER THAT, THAT PERSON ONCE THEY'RE ON A CONTRACT WITH US, WE'LL GO BACK TO STAFF WEIGHED AND THEN COME BACK WITH THEIR PLAN ON HOW TO LAUNCH AND THAT'S WHEN WE COME IN, AND WE TOLD THEM OKAY, WELL, WE DON'T WANT TO DO THONG AND ALL THAT. UM AND THEN RIGHT THEN THAT'S PRESENTED TO THE COUNCIL AGAIN. AND THAT'S WHEN THE PROGRAM LAUNCHES. OKAY, SO. I HEARD ALL THAT. I WOULD SAY IT'S A IT'S SOME OF THAT. AND THEN NOT ALL OF THAT. OKAY? AND SO THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING THE PERMISSION TO GO AHEAD AND GET THIS JUMP STARTED. SO IF YOU GREEN LIGHT IT AND SAY, I THINK YOU CAN DO IT, I'LL GO FORWARD AND THEN I'LL BRING BACK IT AT SOME APPROPRIATE TIME. ALL THE PARTICULARS. SO UM, TIME'S OF THE ESSENCE, THE RP IS KEY, BECAUSE WE NEED TO. WE NEED TO SELECT A COMPANY THAT CAN ACTUALLY DO THIS WORK. AND WE KNOW THIS IS A VERY UNIQUE OR VERY NARROW. PROFESSION OR COMPANY THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR, SO I MEAN, YOU KNOW, IT'S I DON'T THINK THERE'S MANY MANY PLAYERS IN THIS THIS THIS SPACE , SO, UM, THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST THING SO WE'LL DO IT.
WE'LL DO IT R P TO SEE WHAT COMES BACK. YOU DON'T KNOW WE MIGHT GET. WE MIGHT GET ONE BACK OR YOU MIGHT GET 10 BAG. UH AND SO THE TIMING AND ALL THAT IS RIGHT NOW. OUR MAIN PRIORITY IS THE IS TRYING TO DEAL WITH SOME OF THE OTHER, MORE IMPORTANT OR MORE PRESSING PROCUREMENT MATTERS. YOU KNOW, LIKE THE PROCUREMENT MANUAL AND SOME OTHER THINGS THAT WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON STAFF WISE, BUT THAT'S WE'LL TRY TO GET THAT IS I DON'T WANT TO COMMIT TO A DATE BECAUSE I KNOW WHEN I GO TALK TO THESE GUYS ON TUESDAY MORNING, WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO SAY I JUST DON'T WANT YOU TO COMMIT TODAY. I JUST WANT TO JUST FOR CLARIFICATION BECAUSE EVERYONE YOU KNOW I'VE BEEN IN THE LEARNING PROCESS AND I LIKE TO EDUCATE PEOPLE IN REGARDS OF EVERYTHING ALWAYS GOES BACK TO THE COUNCIL. NO MATTER WHAT, EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING ALWAYS GETS BACK TO TELL YOU. WE AUTHORIZE YOU TO PUT 100,000 PROGRAMS, BUT THAT'S AUTHORIZED BY THE COUNCIL. RIGHT WE'RE TELLING YOU TO GO OUT AND LOOK FOR THIS PROFESSIONAL THAT'S GOING TO COME BACK TO THE COUNCIL. YOU DON'T DO EVERYTHING THAT COUNCIL DOESN'T SO I WAS JUST I WAS JUST REITERATING MR RYAN. OH YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, YEAH. CAN I GET A MOTION? HAVE SOME PUBLIC COMMENTS, PUBLIC COMMENTS. FIRST SPEAKER IS LINDEN ICOM, FOLLOWED BY ANNA VARIOUS. THAT IT RIGHT. VARIOUS VARIOUS I THINK. NOW. I'M NOT OKAY. UM I READ OVER THIS PROGRAM AND I. I'M ALL BEHIND IT. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT I READ IN HERE, THOUGH, THAT THAT I THINK NEED TO BE LOOKED AT AND TWEAKED. BEFORE WE GET TO FINAL PAPERWORK. UM AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE SUMMARY OF THIS PROGRAM, IT WAS GOING TO BE TARGETED FOR OWNER OCCUPIED RESIDENCES. WHICH IS GOOD. UM LOWER ON THE PAGE, IT SAYS HOMEOWNER AND OR APPLICANT MUST LIVE THERE FOR MORE ONE YEAR OR MORE. THAT AND OR APPLICANT COULD GIVE YOU A WINDOW FOR A RENTER. TO THAT REQUEST. THIS WORK TO BE DONE. WHICH. TO MY WAY OF THINKING IF THE HOMEOWNER IS LIVING THERE, I HEAR SHE GAVE THEY SHOULD GO THROUGH IT. BUT IF WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING WORK FOR OUT OF TOWN LANDLORDS WORK ON THEIR PROPERTY . WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT IT
[01:25:01]
TWICE. UM. IT ALSO SAYS THAT THE HOMEOWNER HAS TO BE CURRENT ON PROPERTY TAXES, WHICH SHOULD BE EASY ENOUGH TO CHECK AND HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE. WHAT IF THEY DON'T HAVE HONE OUR HOMEOWNER'S INSURANCE? FEDERAL MONEY DOES NOT APPLY TO THAT SHIP DOES THE SAME THING IS, IS IT AN AUTOMATIC DISQUALIFICATION? WHENEVER AND LASTLY, TRY TO HIRE LOCALLY. TRY TRY TO FIND OUR OUR LOCAL CONTRACTORS THAT CAN DO AS MUCH OF THE WORK AS POSSIBLE. THAT'S IT. THANK YOU. NEXT PUBLIC COMMENT. AND NEFARIOUS. NEFARIOUS SO BASICALLY, I ALSO READ IT JUST LIKE SHE DID, UM WITH REAL ESTATE. SOMETIMES THE HOMEOWNER IS LIVING IN THE PROPERTY AND THE PROPERTY IS BIG ENOUGH FOR IT TO BE RENTED. UM I EYESORES. THAT APPLY WITH SOD.MOST OF THE SOD AROUND INDIAN TOWN HAS BEEN DAMAGED. AH BECAUSE OF VEHICLES PARKED IN THE GRASS AND OVER THE SIDEWALKS THAT WE ARE APPARENTLY TRYING TO BEAUTIFUL FIVE INDIAN TOWN AND BUILD NEW SIDEWALKS EXTEND NEW ROADS. YET. WE THINK THAT THEY'RE NOT NECESSARY. I MEAN, THOSE SETBACKS ARE THERE FOR A REASON AND NOT REPLACING SIDE CAN CREATE OTHER BIGGER ISSUES BECAUSE OF WATER FLOWS. AND, UMS NOT HAVE ENOUGH SOD AROUND IT. AH ASBESTOS EYES LIKE GO TO OTHER HOMES THAT ARE BEING KEPT. AND MAINTAIN. SO IN REGARDS TO INSURANCE ON THE PROPERTY, SOME PROPERTIES DON'T QUALIFY RIGHT NOW FOR INSURANCE BECAUSE THEIR ROOF HASN'T BEEN REPAIRED. THAT IS ONE OF THE LIST ITEMS ON THE SO OBVIOUSLY, THE APPLICATION PROCESS. DEPENDING ON THE ITEM.
IT'S GOING TO BE LOOKED AT. I'M SURE BUT THE PILOT FOR MORE ANYTHING, THE MORE THING THAT BOTHERS ME ABOUT THE WHOLE THING IS THE PROCESS THE LENGTH OF TIME SOMEONE SUBMITS AN APPLICATION. STORM SEASON COMES NOW THE WINDOW THAT WAS NOT THERE THAT IT WAS ONLY APPLIED WOULD COVERING THE COVERINGS. IT'S A PROBLEM. I MEAN, THIS IS THIS GOING TO HAPPEN? 2022 OR ARE WE TALKING ABOUT 2023? AND IN ADDITION TO THAT CODE VIOLATIONS, I MEAN THAT WOULD BE A GREAT WAY OF STARTING. MAYBE YOU CAN'T PARTICIPATE IN THE PILOT BECAUSE IT IS NOT. YOU'RE NOT RESIGNING IN THE PROPERTY, BUT LET THOSE LANDLORDS THAT ARE LOCAL OR OUTSIDE LANDLORDS KNOW THAT THEY HAVE TO UPKEEP THERE. UM, LEASED PROPERTY. A LOT OF TIMES MOST OF THE EYES SOURCE ARE THOSE LEASED PROPERTIES THAT WOULD NOT QUALIFY FOR THIS PROGRAM. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
THAT'S IT, MADAM. THERE. THAT'S IT. MM HMM. COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS UM. I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE THAT WE TABLE THIS UNTIL WE COME BACK WITH MORE DEFINED UM, REFINED PROGRAM, SO WE KNOW EXACTLY WHERE IT'S GOING BEFORE WE APPROVE THE MONEY. WHEN YOU SAY OKAY? YEAH. SO TONIGHT, YOU'RE NOT COMMITTING TO SPENDING THE MONEY CORRECT. COMMITTING TO THE SPECIFICS OF THE PROGRAM. WHAT YOU'RE DOING OR WHAT WE'RE ASKING IS THAT YOU GIVE THE VILLAGE MANAGER AUTHORITY TO PUT OUT AN RFP FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO PROVIDE THOSE DETAILS SET UP. THE PROGRAM WOULD BE LIKE HOW HOW IT'S IMPLEMENTED AND TO OVERSEE THE ENTIRE PROCESS. OKAY, THANK YOU FOR CLARIFICATION. CAN I GET A MOTION? SO MOVED SECOND MOVED BY VICE MAYOR SECOND BY COUNCILWOMAN HERNANDEZ ALL IN FAVOR. I MEAN A S MOTION CARRY, UH WAY. THANK YOU, MAYOR. AN

WHAT DO YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU IS A SPREADSHEET CREATED BY MR MIKE FLORIO ARE FINANCE DIRECTOR. UM IT. I MEAN, IT'S BROKEN. IT'S BROKEN DOWN BY GENERAL GOVERNMENT, WHICH IS, YOU KNOW THE ENTIRE MUNICIPAL OPERATIONS NOT INCLUDING THE WATER, PLANT, WATER AND SEWER PLANT AND SO LIKE IN THE TOP COLUMN OR TOP AREA IN YELLOW THAT'S ALWAYS SPENT FOR THE GENERAL GOVERNMENT.

WE'VE WE'RE PAYING FOR FINANCIAL CONSULTING SERVICES OUT OF IT. WE WE'VE PURCHASED A AND E R P OR COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR THE ENTIRE VILLAGE THAT WE'RE RIGHT NOW IN THE PROCESS OF IMPLEMENTING WE DID TRAIL ROAD REPAIRS WITH THAT MONEY AS WELL. AND, UM.

THERE AND OBVIOUSLY, WE'VE WE'VE PURCHASED TWO F 1 50 UTILITY PICKUP DRUGS. WE WE PURCHASED A VERMEER TRAILER VACUUM EXCAVATOR, WHICH THAT WAS A GOOD PURCHASE THAT WE'VE MADE A WHILE BACK. WE ALSO, UM UM, WE HAVE BOWMAN. IF YOU RECALL THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF DESIGNING THE LOOP.

SO UM, THAT'S HOW MUCH WE HAVE LEFT TO SPEND. I THINK IN SEPTEMBER I THINK IN SEPTEMBER IS WHEN WE GET OUR NEXT TRANCHE WILL, WHICH WILL BE ANOTHER $1.7 MILLION. COUNCIL WOMAN'S GIVES TIMES. AND WHAT IS OUR TIMEFRAME ON SPENDING THIS MONEY? HOW LONG DO WE HAVE THINK IT'S 2020? I'M SORRY. DECEMBER 2024. YEAH, NUMBER. WHAT. 44 COUNCILWOMAN HERNANDEZ. YES ANDE WANTED TO DO LIKE SOME OTHER STUFF WITH THE UNCOMMITTED MONEY. DO WE HAVE AN UPDATE ON THAT? YEAH SO LET'S GO BACK THAT OTHER AARP RECOMMENDATIONS. IT'S
[01:40:01]
ATTACHED HERE. IT'S HERE. YOU SEE HERE. WAS IT AT IT'S THERE, SO. DEAR. ARE YOU ABLE TO GO TO THAT OTHER? LINK. SO YOU REMEMBER A WHILE BACK. WE YOU KNOW THIS. THIS IS DATED AUGUST 26 2021, BUT WE'VE ACTUALLY STARTED THAT CONVERSATION LOT EARLIER THAN THAT, AND WE GAVE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE COUNCIL AND HOW WE COULD SPEND UH, THE ENTIRE ALLOCATION. SO UM , SO WE AND THESE WERE RECOMMENDED ACTIONS THEY ARE IN YOUR PACKAGE IF YOU GO TO YOUR PACKAGE. I KNOW DARYN IS WORKING ON GETTING THERE. BUT WE HAD WE IDENTIFIED 13 PROJECTS THAT WE THOUGHT COULD BE FUNDED OUT OF THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN FUNDS AND I'LL JUST GO IN ORDER. THE FIRST ONE WAS AND THESE ARE RECOMMENDED ITEMS NOT MEANING THAT THE COUNCIL APPROVED HIM DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE THAT WE DID IT. BUT IT WAS WE RECOMMENDED THAT THERE BE AN AARP CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AND OUR PROJECT MANAGER CONTRACT POSITION. WE KIND OF ESTIMATED $70,000. AH THEN NUMBER TWO WAS LOSS OF GENERAL FUND SPECIAL REVENUE. WE THINK THAT'S ABOUT $83,000. AND THEN THE LOOPING PROJECT WAS $1.3 MILLION IS WHAT WE THINK IT WILL COST US TO ACTUALLY DO THAT PROJECT. AND THEN THIS. AARP A SENIOR ACCOUNTANT, UH, WHICH IT WAS ABOUT $82,000. WE'RE STILL USING THOSE FUNDS AND THEN THE E R P. IT SAYS 1 45 HERE, BUT WE ENDED UP BUYING THE E R P FOR 1 75, AND THEN WE'VE BEEN. WE'VE IDENTIFIED A COUPLE OF OTHER ISSUES WITH IT, BUT BUT THIS WAS LIKE I SAID, RECOMMENDED THAT TIME. AND THE NUMBER SIX WAS AUTOMATED ART OF AM OUR TECHNOLOGY. SO WE WERE RECOMMENDING THAT WE SPEND $740,000 UPGRADING ARM ARE AUTOMATED WATER METER READING SYSTEMS RIGHT NOW WE HAVE RADIO READS AND WHAT? WHAT WE WERE GOING TO RECOMMEND IS THAT THE COUNCIL ADOPT THIS SO THAT WAY RESIDENTS CAN RECEIVED THEIR, UM UM, WE DON'T HAVE TO GO OUT AND READ THE METER. IT'S RED WIRELESSLY. AND RESIDENTS CAN GET ON A HANDHELD DEVICE AND THEY CONTRACTED WAR USAGE THEY CAN EVEN SAID GOALS LIKE IF THEY IF THEY USE MORE THAN 150 GALLONS, THEY CAN GET ALERTS SET SENT THEM MY TEXT MESSAGE OR EMAIL AND JUST REALLY JUST UPGRADE THE SYSTEM BECAUSE THE WATER METERS ARE SO OLD AND, UM, THAT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE RECOMMENDED TO THE COUNCIL, THEN NUMBER SEVEN WAS THE BOOK OF PARKFIELD RENOVATION PROJECT. UH, UH, BEEN TOLD WE PUT IN 1 66 , BUT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY DEARIE BUT DEBBIE RESOURCE THAT THAT'S NOT ENOUGH. CAN YOU GET TO THAT? UH OH. OKAY OKAY, BECAUSE THEY'RE LOOKING AT ME LIKE I GOT SIX HORNS HERE. ALRIGHT AND THEN NO. NO NUMBER EIGHT IS THE BIG MOUTH FIELD RENOVATION. WE KIND OF ESTIMATED THREE AND $24,700.AND I'M LOOKING AT DEBBIE, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT I THINK IT'S PROBABLY MORE IT'S OVER 400,000 NAILS, AND THIS HAS BEEN ALMOST ONE YEAR. THAT'S IN ONE YEAR, GUYS JUST TO LET YOU KNOW HOW THINGS ARE, YOU KNOW, MOVING AND THEN WE PUT IN THERE THIS SMALL BUSINESS GRANT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, BUT THERE WAS THE COUNCIL. DIDN'T REALLY GIVE ME THE IMPRESSION THAT THEY WANT TO MOVE FORWARD ON THAT TIME. AND THEN NUMBER 10 WAS THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND CODE ENFORCEMENT INITIATIVE. IT'S KIND OF WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW. THE PROJECT THAT YOU JUST GREENLIGHTED. THERE YOU GO, ALRIGHT. THANKS, DARREN. TOO BIG. ALL RIGHT, WELL, IF YOU CAN SEE IT, BUT IF YOU IF YOU GO TON CLICK ON THE LINK AND YOU CAN SEE IT IN DETAIL, BUT, UH, NUMBER 10. IS THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND CODE ENFORCEMENT INITIATIVE. SO LAST YEAR WE TALKED ABOUT HAVING A PROGRAM LIKE THE ONE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THIS EVENING. AND SO WE PUT IT HERE, $250,000. BUT THEN WE STARTED THINKING WELL, YOU KNOW, IS THAT TOO MUCH, WILL WE ? WE THE GOAL IS TO USE THE FUNDS AND BE AND RUN OUT. AND THEN IF IT'S A NEED TO COME BACK, WE'LL COME BACK BUT AT LEAST SEE HOW THE PROGRAM RUNS AND THEN NUMBER 11 WAS ELECTRIC VEHICLE. WE WERE GOING TO BUY A POOL VEHICLE FOR IT FOR THE VILLAGE, SO THAT WHEN WE NEED TO GO TO STEWART OR WHATEVER WE CAN GET IN, ARE IN A CAR AND DRIVE TO STEWART. RIGHT NOW. WE PAY MILEAGE THE TYPE OF MILES WERE PAYING FOR EMPLOYEES TO RUN BACK AND FORTH OF STUART STUART.
PRETTY MUCH JUSTIFIES US BUYING A COUPLE OF VEHICLES, BUT WHAT WE THOUGHT IF WE HAD ONE VEHICLE AND ELECTRIC VEHICLE OPTION CAME UP BECAUSE OF WHAT WE'RE SEEING WITH THE PRICE OF GAS. THIS IS BEFORE GAS WENT UP SO UM AND THEN APART, MASTER PLAN WE PUT IN $50,000. I THINK THAT MYSTERY SOURCE TOLD ME THAT THAT WOULD BE ADEQUATE TO DO A PARK MASTER PLAN, SO THAT'S IN OUR RECOMMENDED ACTS. RECOMMENDED ITEM AND NUMBER 13 WAS THE BIG MOUND PARK RETROFIT. IT WAS
[01:45:05]
$24,000. I DON'T REMEMBER EXACTLY WHAT THIS IS, BUT IT'S. IT'S. YOU KNOW, I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT WHAT? THAT. UPSTAIRS. YEAH. THAT'S NOT ENOUGH. SO THESE WERE RECOMMENDATIONS LAST YEAR.BEFORE WE GOT THE MONEY, AND SO NOW WE'RE IN A POSITION NOW TO REALLY HONE IN ON WHAT YOU WANT TO GET ACCOMPLISHED, AND THESE WERE RECOMMENDED BY BY US BY THE STAFF. OKAY WHEN? WHEN I WAS AT THE TIME BEFORE WE HAD A PARKS DIRECTOR SO THAT WE HAD A PARKS RECORD AND THEY'RE TELLING ME THESE NUMBERS ARE ARE NOT LOW, LOW LOW IS READY TO SPEND SOME OF THIS MONEY SO WELL, WE NEED TO START. YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO KNOW WELL, ESPECIALLY I KEEP ON GETTING THE QUESTION SO, YOU KNOW. IT'S IMPORTANT TO HAVE A TIMELINE. WHEN WILL START SEEING SOMETHING IN REGARDS OF AT LEAST DOING SOMETHING FOR THE PARKS. YES AND THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION . STRATEGIC PLAN? NO, I THINK I THINK, UM I THINK RIGHT NOW WE HAD TO GET A PARKS DIRECTOR IN PLACE. WE HAVE THAT PERSON HERE NOW. AND I'M CERTAIN THAT SHE'S LISTENING TO THE COMMENTARY. WE'RE READY. WE'VE BEEN READY IF WE COULD HAVE THIS FOUR YEARS AGO, FOUR YEARS AND FIVE MONTHS AGO, WE WOULD HAVE DONE IT. BUT YOU KNOW, MONEY WISE, RIGHT? NO I KNOW. I KNOW THAT SHE'S DONE SOME RESEARCH AND SHE'S SPOKEN WITH CONTRACTORS AND SHE'S GOT A HANDLE ON HOW MUCH THINGS COST AND SO YOU KNOW HER MEETING. SHE JUST CAME BEFORE YOU, UM LAST MONTH, BUT MAYBE WE CAN GET HER BACK HERE TO GO THROUGH SOME OF THESE EXPENSES AND SEE WHERE WE'RE AT AT OUR MAYBE NEXT MEETING OR SKATE PARK. I THINK ME AND DEBBIE TALKED ABOUT THAT THE KIDS, WE GOTTA DO SOMETHING. COME ON, COME ON UP. COME ON UP.
DEBBIE RESOURCE FOR THE RECORD, AND THAT'S WHY I'M PUSHING FOR THE MASTER PLAN. WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE COMMUNITY WANTS. I DON'T WANT TO PUT MONEY INTO SOMETHING THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE UTILIZED. WE HAVE TENNIS COURTS, BASKETBALL COURTS. WE HAVE A SKATE PARK THAT HASN'T BEEN TOUCHED SINCE 2002 AND I. I HEAR THAT PEOPLE WANT TO COMMUNITY CENTER. BUT THEN I GET PUSHED BACK THAT WE DON'T WANT YOU DOING THAT, AND IT'S WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE COMMUNITY WANTS TO DO. AND COUNCIL MAKES NEEDS TO MAKE A DECISION ABOUT WHAT WE CAN AFFORD. AND WHETHER OR NOT WE CAN MAINTAIN THOSE FACILITIES BECAUSE HAVING THE FUNDS TO MAINTAIN THEM IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS BUILDING THEM. CORRECT SO YOU DO YOU SUGGEST WE , UM, STAFF CAN GET SOME DATES WITH YOU FOR SOME WORKSHOPS FOR THE COMMUNITY. WELL FIRST I WANT TO START WITH THE MASTER PLAN.
OKAY, THOSE WORKSHOPS FOR US, OKAY? I'M HOPING WE CAN WORK WITH THE COMPANY THAT DID I WOULD ENVIRONMENTAL WHO DID THE MASTER PLANNING FOR TIME OR POWERS BECAUSE THEY'VE ALREADY GOT THE RESEARCH FOR THE VILLAGE. SO I THINK THAT WILL SAVE US SOME MONEY BY USING A COMPANY WHO ALREADY HAS THE EXPERIENCE IN THE AREA. OH, QUESTIONS. YES, MA'AM. I KNOW YOU'VE ALREADY TALKED TO THEM. BUT DO YOU HAVE ANY TIMEFRAME WHEN THAT WOULD BECOME LIKE I'M TELLING YOU? I'M SO ANXIOUS ABOUT THIS PARK DEAL. WELL I HAD IT ON THE AGENDA AND IT HAD TO BE PULLED BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE FIGURES COMPLETED. I WAS WAITING FOR SOME FIGURES FROM WOOD ENVIRONMENTAL. I HAVE THOSE NOW, SO AS SOON AS I CAN GET IT ON THE AGENDA, WE'LL DISCUSS IT.
THANK YOU. I DON'T THINK WE CAN MAKE THE FOURTH, BUT WE DEFINITELY SHOULDN'T ALRIGHT.
SORRY I WAS OUT OF TOWN ON VACATION. ALRIGHT, SHE GOTTA CATCH UP. ALL RIGHT, MR BEFORE I WAS HIRED. GOSH THANKS, GUYS. THANK YOU, UM. NUMBER 13 AND THEN NUMBER 13. MADAM MAYOR IS COMMON. I'M SORRY. SORRY. LINDA UNIKOM. OKAY? THAT'S IT, MADAM MAN. MR BROWN, MADAM. MARRIED NUMBER 13 IS THE E R P UPDATE REQUESTED BY MAYOR CLARK. SHE WANTED TO GET AN UPDATE ON THE COMPUTER SYSTEM.
