[00:40:08]

THREE. APPROVAL. APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT FOR PLAN REVIEW SERVICES. I GUESS THIS WOULD BE.

THAT WOULD BE ME. THAT WOULD BE YOU. FOR THE RECORD, PAT NOLAN DIRECTOR OF UTILITIES AND PUBLIC WORKS. MR. MAYOR, COUNCIL, THIS ITEM IS A RECURRING ITEM. WE TALK ABOUT THIS EVERY YEAR BECAUSE WE HAVE A YEARLY CONTRACT WITH KIMLEY-HORN, SPECIFICALLY TOM JENSEN, WHO WAS HERE THIS EVENING. WHAT THIS ENCOMPASSES IS A LOT OF ENGINEERING. HE WORKS WITH THE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE. SO ANY NEW BUILDING THAT COMES TO THE VILLAGE, TOM IS INVOLVED.

ALL THESE CONTRACTORS THAT ARE WORKING, TOM IS INVOLVED. AND THEN WHEN WE DO ANY ROAD WORK, ANY WATER, WATER MAIN REPAIR, ANYTHING LIKE THAT, TOM IS INVOLVED REVIEWING ALL THAT. SO HE'S A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE PROCESS. WHEN WE GO TO WORK AT BOTH PUBLIC WORKS AND THE WATER PLANT, YOU KNOW, THE UTILITIES. SO AND HE'S ALSO BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN CHASING THE FUNDS THAT WE'VE BEEN CHASING FOR THE NEW WATER PLANT INFRASTRUCTURE AND SO ON. SO WHAT THIS IS, IS A CONTINUATION OF CONTRACT THAT WE'VE HAD WITH HIM SINCE OR HIS FIRM SINCE 2022, I BELIEVE. OKAY. ANY ANY QUESTIONS. NO QUESTIONS, ANY COMMENT. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR MR. JENSEN, HE IS HERE. HE ONE OF THE REASONS HE CAME IS I DON'T KNOW IF HE'S MET ALL OF THE BOARD, BUT HE IS HERE PRETTY FREQUENTLY. SO I THOUGHT IT'D BE IMPORTANT FOR HIM TO BE HERE. SO IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR IF YOU'D LIKE TO MEET HIM, HE IS HERE. YES. THANK YOU. NO. ALL WE NEED IS MONEY, AND HE'S GOT A LOT OF WORK TO DO, BUT HE DOES. WE NEED THAT FUNDING. SO. SO THIS IS THE I SEE IT SAYS AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED. SO THIS IS BASICALLY SETTING ASIDE UP TO $100,000 THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE SPENT ON ENGINEERING. I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU. WE'RE GOING TO SPEND IT. YEAH, I FIGURED THAT, PAT, BUT I JUST, YOU KNOW. YEAH, THERE IS AND IT'S A SET ASIDE. CORRECT. IT'S NOT GOING INTO HIS POCKET TODAY. NO. OKAY. THAT'S THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO SAY. IT'LL BE SITTING THERE. YES. RIGHT. OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY. NO COMMENTS. NO PUBLIC COMMENTS OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE. I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THE AGREEMENT. MOTION APPROVED. MOTION MADE BY COUNCILMAN WATERS BROWN, SECOND BY SECOND COUNCILWOMAN WILLIAMS. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. PASS UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

[4) Approval of (3) Proposals from PRP Construction regarding Water Main TIE-IN to existing Infrastructure on Palm Drive and Fernwood Forrest Road. ]

FOR YOUR SERVICE. OKAY. NUMBER FOUR, APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT FOR PRP CONSTRUCTION WATER MAIN.

THAT WOULD ALSO BE ME. THIS IS PARTLY WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. WE HAVE THESE THINGS THAT POP UP THAT CAUSES US TO. TAKE MONEY FROM MR. FLORIO'S FINANCES. WHAT THIS IS, IS A PART OF THE RIVER OAK DEVELOPMENT. THE PLAN WAS FOR THEM TO CONNECT TO EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE ON THE ENTRANCE TO FERNWOOD FOREST DEVELOPMENT, AND THEN ALSO OVER ON PALM DRIVE. SO WHEN THE CONTRACTOR WENT TO DO DO SOME FOLLOW UP, OUR INFRASTRUCTURE IS LACKING.

OVER ON PALM DRIVE, THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SIX INCH MAIN THAT THE NEW MAIN COULD CONNECT TO. THERE'S NOT. THERE'S A TWO INCH GALVANIZED MAIN. THERE'S A FIRE HYDRANT ABOUT 200FT AWAY FROM THE CONNECTION POINT. AND THEN FROM THERE THERE'S A TWO INCH GALVANIZED MAIN THAT IS OBVIOUSLY INSUFFICIENT FOR FIRE FLOW, BUT IT'S ALSO OLD, AND WE'VE HAD TO REPAIR IT SINCE I'VE WORKED HERE. SO PART OF THIS PROPOSAL IS THAT THAT IS THE BIGGER PART OF THE PROPOSAL.

THAT WAS $24,700 FOR THAT. BUT WHAT THAT WILL DO IS WE HAD A DEAD END THERE ON PALM DRIVE. SO THAT WILL CREATE A LOOP. SO THAT WILL IMPROVE THE FLOW, BUT IT ALSO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THE WATER. BECAUSE WHEN YOU ELIMINATE DEAD ENDS THE WATER IS ABLE TO MOVE THROUGH THE SYSTEM.

SO WE'RE GETTING A COUPLE THINGS. WE'RE ALSO GOING TO THEO ALL THE HOMES IN THAT AREA, SO THAT THEY'RE MUCH MORE EASILY ACCESSIBLE BECAUSE WE HAVE THREE HOUSES ON THE ONE SIDE THAT COME OFF OF ONE SERVICE. THAT IS NOT GOOD EITHER, BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE THAT ONE SERVICE FAILURE OF THREE HOMES THAT DON'T HAVE WATER. SO THAT'S PART OF ONE PART OF THE PROPOSAL. THE OTHER TWO ARE TWO OTHER TIE INS OVER ON FERNWOOD, BECAUSE THERE'S TWO MAINS COMING FROM THE NEW DEVELOPMENT AND SAME THING OVER THERE, WE'RE ADDING. PART OF IT WAS TO ADD VALVES TO THE SYSTEM BECAUSE THERE ARE NO VALVES. IF YOU LIVED IF YOU LIVE IN FERNWOOD, WHICH I BELIEVE, PHYLLIS, YOU DO. WHEN I FIRST GOT HERE, WE HAD A LEAK ON PALM DRIVE ON A ONE INCH WATER MAIN,

[00:45:03]

AND WE HAD TO SHUT THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD OFF BECAUSE THERE WAS ONLY ONE VALVE THAT AT THE TIME THE WORKFORCE WAS AVAILABLE OR AWARE OF, AND THAT WAS THE ONLY WAY WE COULD CONTROL THE WATER. SO WE PUT THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD OUT OF WATER ON A SUNDAY NIGHT FOR 4 OR 5 HOURS, BECAUSE IT WAS AN ODD SIZE GALVANIZED LINE. WITH THE ADDITION OF THESE VALVES, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE MORE CONTROL AND WE WON'T HAVE TO SHUT BETWEEN THE PALM PALM DRIVE CONNECTION AND THE OTHER TWO VALVES. WE'LL BE ABLE TO ISOLATE PARTS OF THAT NEIGHBORHOOD EASIER AND NOT HAVE TO PUT THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD OUT OF WATER. SO THIS IS AN UNFORTUNATE OCCURRENCE BECAUSE OUR INFRASTRUCTURE IS LACKING, BUT IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO SOLVE MORE THAN ONE PROBLEM. THE TOTAL COST IS. TOTAL COST IS $47,180. OKAY. WHERE'S THAT MONEY COMING FROM? WE'LL HAVE TO ASK MR. FLORIO. UTILITY FUND DOES HAVE. SUFFICIENT FUNDS UNDER THE MAINTENANCE LINE ITEM. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO RECLASS IT OVER TO CAPITAL INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT. BUT, YOU KNOW, THESE ARE THE UNFORESEEN THINGS THAT WE COME UP WITH FROM TIME TO TIME. AND, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO DO IT. IT WASN'T PARTICULARLY BUDGETED, BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO MOVE SOME MONEY AROUND TO, TO PAY FOR IT. SO IT'S ESSENTIAL THINGS. YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST I MEAN, KIND OF THAT'S KIND OF WHAT YOU DO, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GET DOWN TO THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR. YOU KIND OF HAVE TO BEG, BORROW AND STEAL A LITTLE BIT FROM ONE AREA OR ANOTHER. AND THAT'S JUST THAT'S JUST THE NATURE OF THE BUSINESS. SO HAS TO BE DONE. YEAH. I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE MOTION TO APPROVE MADE BY COUNCILWOMAN ANSLINGER. SECOND, I HAPPILY SECOND.

HAPPILY SECOND BY COUNCILWOMAN WATERS BROWN. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. OKAY. PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. THANK
