May 15, 2023 City Council

BECAUSE, UM, WE DO GET POLICE RE WE DO GET Y'ALLS POLICE REPORTS FROM Y'ALL, AND WE GET INCIDENTS LIKE THAT HAVE HAPPENED OVER YEARS AND YEARS OF THIS LOCATION.

WE GET IT IN SNIPPETS.

CORRECT.

AND THERE'S NO WAY TO TIE IT TOGETHER.

AND SO WE LOOK AT YOU GUYS TO HELP US TIE THOSE SNIPPETS TOGETHER INTO THIS IS A, A PROBLEM AREA.

AND AGAIN, UH, IN NO WAY DO WE WANT TO MICROMANAGE YOU GUYS BECAUSE Y'ALL ARE PROFESSIONALS AND WE'RE NOT.

BUT WE DO WANNA BE MADE AWARE OF, UH, SITUATIONS LIKE THIS.

SURE.

IF WE HAVE ANY MORE IN THE CITY.

ABSOLUTELY.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYBODY THAT COMING OUT AND, UH, AND RAISING YOUR, UH, OPINION AND YOUR BRINGING TO US, UH, UM, THE TURMOIL THAT Y'ALL HAVE BEEN HAVING TO LIVE IN.

AND, UH, WE APOLOGIZE THAT THAT'S GONE ON FOR SO LONG.

AND, UH, IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH, UH, ADDRESSING IT WITH THIS TOOL.

ERIC MADISON.

SURE.

SALLY, CAN YOU GET WITH MR. HOOKS BEFORE HE LEAVES AND SEE IF YOU CAN SET UP A TIME WITH HIM TO MEET WITH, UH, UH, US TOMORROW? OKAY.

I, IF NOT, WE'RE GONNA MOVE ON TO, UM, ITEM SIX.

IF YOU WANT TO STICK AROUND, PLEASE DO.

IF NOT, PLEASE.

UH, YOU CAN FEEL FREE.

FEEL FREE TO WA UH, EVACUATE.

EVACUATE.

OH BOY.

THAT CLEARED IT OUT, DIDN'T IT? NOT THE BEST BEHAVED LITTLE KIDS.

ALL RIGHT, WE'RE GONNA MOVE ON TO, UH, ITEM SIX'S AWARD BID NUMBER 23 IS, HE'S ASKING YOU, MAYOR.

MINE WOULD NOT HAVE SAID THAT LONG.

I THINK MINE WAS ASLEEP.

[6. Award Bid No. 23-02-0568 to Matula & Matula for the Azalea Street extension in the amount not to exceed $458,734– Modesto Mundo ]

I'M SORRY.

UH, AWARD BID NUMBER 23 0 2 0 5 6 8 2 MATULA MATULA FOR THE ZLA STREET EXTENSION AND AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED

[01:30:01]

$458,734.

MODESTO MAYOR, UM, MR. AGARIO SPEAK, UH, TO THE BID.

WE DID RECEIVE, UH, TO, UM, WE'RE RECOMMENDING THE LOW BID.

WE ALSO, UM, MR. GUI IDENTIFIED, WE DO HAVE, UH, ADDITIONAL EXPENSE FOR INSPECTION.

UM, THAT WILL DO WITH A SEPARATE CONTRACT WITH THE ENGINEER AND ALSO FOR SOIL SOILS TESTING.

BUT THIS, RIGHT NOW WE'RE ASKING JUST FOR, UH, AWARD OF, UH, THE, THE BID PRICE.

THE, UM, THE BUDGET THAT WE HAVE, UH, THAT WAS APPROVED, UH, BY THE LAKE JACKSON DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION WAS 750,000, UH, DOLLARS.

SO THIS COMES UNDER THAT AMOUNT ALSO, UM, UH, UM, JAMES, UM, OUR FINANCE DIRECTOR, UM, UH, FOUND THAT WE STILL HAD, UH, APPROXIMATELY $86,000 IN CHANGE REMAINING FROM OUR CONSTRUCTION FUND FROM, UH, HEB, STILL UN UNUSED.

WE HAD USED SOME OF IT IN, YOU KNOW, OTHER PROJECTS, UH, DOWNTOWN.

SO, UH, MY RECOMMENDATION WAS WE WOULD USE THAT FIRST, UH, AND DEPLETE THAT ACCOUNT SINCE IT'S SITTING THERE.

AND THEN WE WOULD GO INTO THE 750,000.

SO, UM, UM, TO COVER THE REMAINING BALANCE OF THE PROJECT.

SO I HAVE A QUESTION ON THE SEVEN $50,000 THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE HFS AND SALES TAX PROJECT FUND WAS, UH, THAT WAS BASED ON A CALCULATED NUMBER THAT WE, SO MUCH OF THE STREET WAS THIS AMOUNT, AND SO WE MULTIPLIED BY THE CERTAIN AMOUNT TO GET THAT NUMBER RIGHT? CORRECT.

SO WE, WE DON'T WANNA SPEND ALL THAT MONEY CUZ WE MADE AN ERROR ON THAT.

SO NO, WE WOULD NOT MEAN, I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE SEVEN $50,000 NUMBER SHOULD NOT BE USED AS A BENCHMARK NUMBER FOR THAT JOB BECAUSE THAT WAS INCORRECT.

NO, IT'S ONLY THE PROJECT FUNDS, UH, FOR IT.

SO WE ONLY, UH, SO THE BID IS WE HAVE 490,000 MINUS 80 MINUS 86.

SO WE HAVE 400.

WE EXPECT TO USE 404 OF THE SEVEN 50.

THE REMAINING BALANCE WOULD GO BACK INTO THE FUND BALANCE FOR THE HALF CENT.

UH, WOULD PROBABLY SUBMIT A PROJECT, UH, TO THE HALF CENT.

THEN TO, UH, CONSTRUCT THE PARKING LOT.

UH, THAT'S BEING PROPOSED, UH, AS A REQUEST FROM OUR DONATION, BUT WE'VE ALSO SUBMITTED THAT FOR CDBG FUNDS AS WELL.

UM, OUR, I GUESS OUR OVERALL PROJECT COSTS, I'M GONNA ROUND IT TO 300, UH, WE'VE SUBMITTED FOR GRANT FUNDS FOR 235,000.

SO, UM, BUT AGAIN, THAT'LL HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE PROJECT PROCESS ALL OVER AGAIN.

UH, WHEN THEY HAD THE PUBLIC HEARING, THEY ONLY HAD IT FOR THE ROAD EXTENSION, SO IT WOULDN'T, UM, BUT OVERALL I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'LL, WE'LL HAVE THAT PROJECT, YOU KNOW, WE'LL GO AGAIN.

SO, UH, I ANTICIPATE WE'RE USING 404 OR 405,000 OF THE SEVEN 50 FUND.

AND ALSO THIS, UH, CONTRACT IS CONTINGENT UPON US RECEIVING THE, UM, EASEMENTS.

THAT'S CORRECT.

UM, WE'RE ASKING THAT, UM, TOWARD THE BID, BUT IT'S STILL CONTINGENT ON RECEIVING RIGHT.

OF WAY FROM ALL PARTIES.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR SAL SINCE WE MADE HIM STAND HERE, ? YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

AM I, AM I HERE ? NO, I MEAN, MR. MR. MUNDA EXPLAINED THAT VERY, YOU KNOW, VERY WELL.

UH, THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE TO ADD THERE IS 120 DAYS AS BEING THE CALENDAR DAYS, THAT'S THIS PROJECT'S SUPPOSED TO, TO BE, UH, COMPLETED IN.

SO, UH, THAT'S THE ONLY OTHER ITEM.

SO AS FAR AS THIS PROJECT MOVING FORWARD, THE ONLY THING IF WE AWARD THE BID TONIGHT, THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD BE HOLDING US UP IS, UH, GETTING THE, UH, EASY EASEMENTS CORRECT.

AND THE EASEMENTS, UH, THE E THE WELL, THE RIGHT OF WAY, RIGHT OF WAY.

I KEEP CALLING EASEMENT.

I'M SORRY.

AND THE RIGHT OF WAY COULD TAKE EITHER FORM.

IT COULD TAKE, UH, THE, THE FORM OF A, OF A NATURAL DEED, UH, GIVEN TO THE CITY THAT IS GONNA BE RECORDED, UH, FOLLOWED BY A, AN OFFICIAL PLANNING OF THAT E OF THAT RIGHT OF WAY.

SO, UH, BUT IT CAN BE DONE IN A SHORT, IN A SHORT ORDER BY CREATING A DATE THAT DESCRIBES THE, UH, THE RIGHT OF WAY, THE SIXTH OF IT RIGHT OF WAY AND IT BE DULY, UH, RECORDED IN THE COUNTY.

SO THAT CAN HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY.

SO, AND AS FAR AS THE CONTRACTOR, THE CONTRACTOR IS, UH, JUST SITTING THERE TIGHT, THEY'RE WANTING TO MOVE INTO THIS THING AS SOON AS THEY CAN.

THEY'RE WORKING ON TWO OTHER PROJECTS FOR US.

SO THEY ARE GONNA BE TRYING TO GETTING EVERYTHING AT THE

[01:35:01]

SAME TIME.

SO, SO THIS IS PRETTY MUCH JUST A STRAIGHT ROAD, OR IS IT A LITTLE GOT A LITTLE JIG TO IT? JUST A LITTLE JIG.

THERE'S, UH, IT IS GONNA BE IMPERCEPTIBLE PRO, BASICALLY WHAT A MOUSE.

EASY PROJECT.

IS THAT ENGINEERING TERM? YEAH, IT'S A, IT'S A STRAIGHT ROAD BASED ON LEE JACKSON STANDARDS.

THAT'S, YEAH.

AND THEN IT'S BEING BUILT TO THE CURRENT STANDARDS, RIGHT? IT IS BUILT TO OUR STANDARDS AND IT'S GONNA BE, UH, INSPECTED TO OUR STANDARDS.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? IF NOT, I'LL TAKE A MOTION.

MAYOR, I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO AWARD BID NUMBER 23 0 2 0 5 68 TO MATULA MATULA FOR THE AZELIA STREET EXTENSION IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $458,734.

SIR, I HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER SETH AND A SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN BAKER.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? YES, WE DO.

WE NEED TO ADD THE CONTINGENCY PART POINT TO THAT.

RIGHT NOW, THERE WAS NO CONTINGENCY MENTION ON THE MOTION.

YOU CAN, I'M NOT SIGNING A CONTRACT UNTIL, WELL, WE CAN'T BUILD A ROAD UNLESS WE HAVE, UH, RIGHT OF AWAY CAN'T HAVE RIGHT OF WAY.

SO I'M NOT GONNA ASSIGN THE CONTRACT UNTIL WE HAVE RIGHT OF WAY.

I MEAN, WHAT'S THE HARM IN ADDING THE CONTINGENCY? YOU CAN, YOU CAN, IF YOU WANNA MAKE A MAYOR, I'D LIKE TO MAKE, UH, A NEW MOTION TO AWARD BID NUMBER 23 0 2 0 5 68 TO MATULA MATULA FOR THE AZELIA STREET EXTENSION IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $458,734.

CONTINGENT UPON GETTING THE RIGHT OF WAY, UH, SECURED ICONTINUE MY SECOND.

ON TO, OKAY, ITEM SEVEN WAS DEFERRED.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

AYE.

ANY OPPOSED? ALL RIGHT.

UH, MOVE

[7. Discuss and consider authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Omkar Enterprises to reimburse the city for sidewalks in an amount not to exceed $8,000 - Modesto Mundo ]

ITEM EIGHT

[8. Discussion of Utility Capital Improvement Projects – Milford John-Williams]

IS DISCUSSED.

UTILITY CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT.

THIS IS SHORT AND SWEET.

GOOD EVENING, COUNSEL.

MAYOR.

UM, AS YOU CAN SEE, UH, PRESENTED IN FRONT OF YOU IS WHAT WE HAVE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED FOR OUR UTILITY, C I P.

UM, WE DO THIS WITH THE MINDSET OF TAKING CARE OF WHAT WE HAVE REGARDING OUR INFRASTRUCTURE.

UM, MOST OF THESE PROJECTS HAVE BEEN IN PREVIOUS C IPS, UM, THAT YOU HAVE SEEN BEFORE, AND IT, SO IT'S A CONTINUATION OF THAT.

UM, A COUPLE OF THINGS TO NOTE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO NOTE IS THAT WE, UM, UM, MOVED OVER THE LATERAL LINE REPAIR THAT WE HAD IN PREVIOUS CIS TOWARDS OUR OPERATING, WHICH WE WILL, YOU WILL NOTE AS WE GO THROUGH OUR OPERATING BUDGET PROCESS IN THAT REGARD.

UM, AND WE, UM, HAVE A NEW SPANISH OAK, UH, WATERLINE RESIZED TO EIGHT INCHES.

UH, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG HERE, SAL, IS THAT, THAT, UH, LINE WAS TOO LARGE AND IT IS BEING RESOURCES MORE SMALL.

SO, UM, TO REDUCE CORRECT, IT'S A 12 INCH LINE.

NOW WE'RE GONNA REDUCE TO EIGHT.

CORRECT? YEAH.

SO THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE PRESENTED IN FRONT OF YOU.

IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, I WILL BE HAPPILY WILLING TO ANSWER, AND IF I CANNOT ANSWER THEM, I WILL BE WILLING TO DELEGATE OVER TO THOSE WHO CAN.

SO THAT'S MY QUESTION.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT IMPORTANT THAT YEAH, NO PROBLEM.

TO, TO RESIZE THE LINE.

YOU'RE GONNA PUT A SLEEVE IN THERE, OR HOW ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO THEM? IT'S GONNA BE, EXCUSE ME, IT'S GONNA BE A NEW LINE ENTIRELY.

ABANDON THAT LINE, OR YOU GONNA DIG IT UP? UH, IT'S GONNA BE ABANDONED.

IT'S NOT GONNA BE USED THIS, THIS LINE, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AS FAR AS THE WATER AGE IS THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE SO, UH, TOO LARGE OF A LINE, UH, GOING RUNNING FOR A LONG, FOR A LONG DISTANCE FROM THE, UH, FROM THE CLOSES, THE SUPPLY POINT.

I'M JUST CURIOUS.

ON FOR PLANNING AND EXTENSION GROWTH SOMEWHERE ELSE.

AND THIS IS WHAT WE FOUND OUT IN OUR WATER MODELING, RIGHT? ONCE WE GOT OUR WATER MODELING, WE, WE KNEW THAT WE HAD HAD PROBLEMS, BUT WE NEVER REALLY COULD DETERMINE WHAT IT WAS.

BUT THE WATER MODELING HELPED US, UH, DETERMINE THAT, YOU KNOW, DETERMINE THAT YES, THE LINE'S TOO SMALL.

THERE'S ALSO PROBABLY, WE'LL HAVE TO MAKE A CONNECTION IN THE BACK.

UM, YES, WE'RE GONNA, UH, WE'RE GONNA CHANGE THE RIDING ENTIRELY.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO THROUGH, THROUGH THE BACKSIDE OF THE SUBDIVISION WHERE COME FROM THE BACK.

WILL WE BE CONNECTING BOTH NEIGHBORHOODS, UH, IN THE BACKSIDE? UH, NO.

NOT AT THIS TIME.

UH, THE OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD DID NOT SHOW SIGNS OF THAT FOR WHATEVER REASON.

SO, AND IT COULD BE DONE BECAUSE THEY'RE ALL BOTH INTER INTERCONNECTED ANYWAY, SO YES, IT'LL BE AFFECTING THE OTHER SUBDIVISION.

AGAIN, THIS IS, THIS IS THE CORRECT, CORRECT.

AGING OF THE WATER IN CORRECT IN THE LINE.

AND WHAT WE'VE FOUND OUT IS, IS THAT AS THE WATER SITS AND AS BECOMES OLDER SEDIMENT STARTS FALLING OUT, THE CHEMICALS START USING, START LOSING THEIR CAPACITY.

SO, YEAH.

AND USUALLY, UM, YOU KNOW, DEVELOPERS AND ENGINEERS WANTED TO TRY TO BUILD, YOU KNOW, AS BIG A SYSTEM AS THEY CAN BECAUSE YOU'RE PLANNING

[01:40:01]

AND THAT'S JUST HASN'T REALIZED.

IT'S TOO BAD.

A NEW SUBDIVISION ON PRISON LAND IS NOT COMING UP.

YOU COULD PROBABLY EXTEND THAT OUT TO USE THAT BIG LAND.

WELL, THE GOOD THING IS THAT WE HAVE A PLANT, UH, THERE IN THE NORTH SIDE THERE, WHICH IS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THERE, AND THE LINES THEMSELVES ARE NOT THAT SIZED.

SO, BUT WE LEARNED THAT LESSON AND WE'RE APPLYING THAT SAME, UH, THE SAME CONDITION ON THE NEW NORTHWOOD EXTENSION THERE.

UH, SO, UH, BECAUSE WE WERE ALREADY PLA OR THE CLIENTS WERE ORIGINALLY TO EXTEND A LARGE SIZE LINE UP NORTH, WELL, WE DECIDED THAT THAT WAS NOT GONNA BE THE PRUDENT THING TO DO.

DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT THESE UTILITY PROJECTS? AGAIN, WE'RE, UH, WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR APPROVAL, IT'S JUST THAT IT'S IN THAT'S CORRECT.

UH, IT'LL BE IN THE BUDGET FOR THIS SUMMER.

WE'RE, YOU KNOW, THIS IS OUR FIRST, YOU KNOW, PORTION OF DISCUSS THE CIP P NEXT WEEK WE HAVE A, OUR, IS IT NEXT WEEK? IT IS NEXT WEEK.

SECOND, I'M SORRY, MAY 22ND IS OUR, THAT IS NEXT WEEK.

NEXT WEEK, NEXT MONDAY.

IT IS NEXT WEEK.

UH, IS OUR GENERAL CIP P DISCUSSION.

WHAT WE MAY ASK, I'LL HAVE TO TALK TO SAL.

I MAY ASK FOR AN AMENDMENT ON THIS 300,000, UH, OF AMENDING IT THIS YEAR'S, BUT THE, THE FUNDS ARE THERE JUST FOR US TO GET STARTED, BUT I'LL JUST SEE WHAT HIS TIMELINE IS RIGHT THERE.

THERE'S JUST NO REASON FOR US OTHER THAN WHAT PROJECTS ARE IN THE QUEUE TO WAIT TILL OCTOBER 1ST.

AND SINCE, UH, REAL QUICK ON, THERE'S ONE OF 'EM, AND SINCE IT'S GOING TO GLARE OUT IF ANYBODY ELSE, UH, LOOKS AT IT AS THE LEAD AND COPPER EPA MANDATE, COULD YOU JUST EXPLAIN THAT REAL QUICK? YEAH.

THAT'S, UH, REQUIRED BY, UM, THE EPA FOR US TO CHECK SERVICE LINES, UM, AS THEY LEAVE THE WATER METER TO SEE THE PRIVATE LINE OF THE HOMEOWNER IF IT'S LETTER COPPER.

AND SO WE ARE IN THE FIRST PHASE OF THIS YEAR, I THINK WE'RE AT 40% OR 50%, SABRINA, I THINK WE'RE PRETTY ALONG.

SO THAT'S, SO THAT'S TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR METER'S NOT TIED IN TO A COPPER OR LEAD PIPE ON THE CUSTOMERS SIDE.

SABRINA CAN EXPLAIN IT BETTER THAN ME.

AT LEAST A LITTLE BIT.

MAYBE JUST A LITTLE BIT.

THE WHOLE THING IS JUST FLINT, MICHIGAN.

UM, IT'S ALL A REACTION INTO FLINT, MICHIGAN.

UM, SO THIS IS COMING AROUND AND THEN WE'RE IDENTIFYING ONE IF WE HAVE, BUT ALSO YOU'RE GONNA SEE THERE, IF HOUSES HAVE THAT POTENTIALLY WILL BE A NEXT STEP, UM, FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO SAY, YOU KNOW, WHAT CAN BE DONE TO HELP WITH THIS? UH, BUT RIGHT NOW THAT'S WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT.

JUST SEEING, SO YOU JUST DIG UP AT THE METER, YOU DIG IT UP, YOU, YOU LOOK AT IT.

UH, WE HAVE A COMPANY GOING AROUND RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE DOING VERY WELL AND, AND PROCEEDING FASTER THAN WE, UH, HAD HOPED.

UH, AND MOST OF OUR LINES ARE SHOWING UP GOOD.

THAT, UH, WE ARE NOT LETTER COPPER.

WE'RE ALL RIGHT.

WE DO HAVE A FEW THAT ARE INDETERMINATE AND WE WILL DO A LITTLE BIT FURTHER TESTING ON THEM TO SEE WHAT THEY ARE BEFORE, BEFORE THIS ALL GETS FINISHED.

YOU SAID WE'RE FINDING SOME, IS THAT WHAT WE'RE FINDING ON OUR SIDE OR ON THE CUSTOMERS RIGHT NOW? WE'RE JUST, I DON'T KNOW THAT OFF THE TOP OF MY, I JUST KNOW THAT WE HAVE FOUND A, A FEW, NOT VERY MANY.

UM, AROUND HERE.

AND, AND YOU'RE TO EXPECT THAT CUZ AGE OF THE, OF THE SYSTEM AGE OF WHEN HOUSES AND STUFF WERE PUTTING IN.

BUT, UH, THOSE THAT WE DO FIND ARE, ARE INDETERMINANT.

WE WILL GO BACK AND DO A LITTLE BIT FURTHER.

TENNESSEE, I, WE HAD THE LAST TIME I SAW A NUMBER, IT WAS, WE WERE AROUND, WE HAD DONE MAYBE LIKE 3000 INSPECTIONS AND I THINK SHE SAID THEY'VE MAYBE IDENTIFIED 10.

THAT UNDER, WE WERE DEFINITELY UNDER REVIEW.

, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS COUNSEL? UH, THANK YOU.

ITEM NINE IS, UH, CUSTOMER, I MEAN CITY MANAGER'S UPDATES.

WE'LL MOVE ON TO, UM,

[9. City Manager Updates]

UM, EVERYBODY'S AGREED, UH, THAT WE CAN MOVE THE, UH, BUDGET WORKSHOP TO JULY 15TH.

SO IF YOU COULD PUT THAT, WE'LL GIVE, SEND YOU OUT A CALENDAR NOTICE.

WE STILL KEEPING THE 22ND JUST AS A, THE 22ND IS A BACKUP.

UM, AT 8:00 AM WE HAVEN'T HAD TO USE THE BACKUP IN A LONG TIME.

SO I HAVE, I THINK MAYBE ONLY ONCE OR IF, I'M NOT SURE IF WE'VE EVEN USED NOT SINCE I'VE BEEN ON CANCEL.

IT'S BEEN, UM, BUT WE'RE MORE THAN HAPPY TO NO.

TO MEET.

NO.

UH, AND THEN THE CIP P WORKSHOP I ADDED, UH, THAT'S MAY 22ND AT FIVE 30 AND WE'LL DISCUSS THE GENERAL FUND.

AND I, WE'RE GONNA TRY TO ALSO TALK, UH, THE HALF SENT FUND AS WELL.

AND, UM, AND GET YOUR BLESSING.

AND IF YOU DO, UH, BLESS US THEN, THEN WE WOULD MEET THEN WITH THE, UH, HALF ABSENT BOARD AND TAKE RIGHT.

TAKE PROJECTS TO THEM ON THE COUNCIL ACTION ITEM.

WHAT DATE WAS THAT? MAY 27TH.

[01:45:02]

UM, MONDAY ACTION ITEMS. UM, I HAVE THAT WE WILL SET UP A MEETING WITH MR. HOOK, UM, EITHER TOMORROW OR THIS WEEK WHEN, UM, AND DISCUSS OUR NEXT STEPS, UH, WITH, UH, THE CITY ATTORNEY AND, UH, THE ASSISTANT CHIEF AS WELL.

CAN COUNCIL BE KEPT UP, KEPT CURRENT ON HOW THAT GOES WITHOUT, UH, ANY KIND OF OPEN MEETINGS ISSUES? UH, YOU CAN COMMUNICATE TO US.

I GUESS WE CAN COMMUNICATE.

WE JUST DON'T WANT Y'ALL COMMUNICATING ABOUT.

JUST KEEP US POSTED ON THANK YOU.

ALRIGHT.

AND ON THE NEXT AGENDA, WE'LL, WE'LL, UM, WELL, WE'LL WORK ON THE AGREEMENT WITH ENCORE ENTERPRISES.

IT MIGHT BE A COUPLE MEETINGS DOWN.

[10. Construction Updates]

WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM TEN'S.

UH, CONSTRUCTION UPDATES RIGHT NOW, WE REALLY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING.

WE KIND WELL, BUT IT'S KIND OF MY PROJECT, KIND OF SALES PROJECT.

MULCH ROAD IS BEING, UH, YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE MULCH YARD HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN.

WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF, UH, REPAIRING THE MOLES YARD ROAD.

UM, SHOULD BE A ROLL OFF DOWN AT THE, WHAT USED TO BE THE EXIT END FOR THE CCC.

WHERE CITIZENS CAN STILL DROP STUFF OFF THERE.

UH, WE ARE HAVING TRANSIT COMING OUT, UH, QUITE A BIT MORE TRAFFIC THAN WE HAD ANTICIPATED, UH, WITH TRA WITH TRANSIT THERE.

BUT EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE GOING VERY WELL.

UH, GAY'S NOT HAVING ANY ISSUES.

TRANSIT'S NOT HAVING ANY ISSUES IF THERE ARE, THE LADY WHO RUNS TRANSIT IS ALSO NAMED GAY.

SO GAY AND GAY TALK TO EACH OTHER AND EVERYTHING GETS WORKED OUT VERY WELL.

UM, AND HOPEFULLY IN TWO WEEKS WE'LL HAVE THAT LITTLE SECTION IN FRONT OF THE CCC REOPENED.

I SAY TWO WEEKS, BARRING WEATHER, WEATHER.

PLEASE GIMME A LITTLE THING ON THAT.

UM, AND IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT FASTER THAN THAT POINT AND WHAT THEY CAN GET.

BUT THAT IS THE PLAN IS TO HAVE THAT OPEN AND THEN WE WILL BE ABLE TO JUST GO IN TO THE CCC.

YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO CONTINUE ON DOWN.

THAT WILL STILL TAKE, UH, A LITTLE BIT LONGER THAN THAT, SEVERAL MORE WEEKS AFTER THAT.

UM, BUT OTHER THAN THAT, UH, SPOKE TO MR. MURPHY TODAY AND HE SAID EVERYTHING WAS GOING PRETTY GOOD.

ANY IDEA ON WHEN THE, UH, CELL ANTENNAS ARE GONNA BE BACK ON THE TOWER? WATER TOWER? THERE IS AN ISSUE GOING ON WITH THE CELL ANTENNAS.

UM, WE'VE HELD THEM RIGHT NOW.

UM, THEY'VE, UM, BEFORE THE PROJECT STARTED WE ASKED THEM, YOU KNOW, HAD THEY HAD ANY CHANGES, THERE WAS NONE.

AND NOW THEY'VE WANTED TO ADD TWO ANTENNAS.

WE HAVE TO HAVE THAT CHECKED BY THE ENGINEER AND APPROVED FOR IT.

UM, STRUCTURAL TO STRUCTURALLY FOR IT TO BE DONE.

THEY WANTED TO ADD THEM NOW AT ONE PROJECT CUZ THAT UNTIL THE ENGINEER AND THE TERMS OF AGREEMENT ARE ADDRESSED, UH, THEY HAVE TO HOLD.

AND SO, UM, WE'RE WAITING FOR THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEER TO, UH, CLARK IS GETTING WITH HIM.

MR. MUNO? YES.

CLARK NORTHROP, WHO HAS BEEN MANAGING THE PROJECT FOR US OUT THERE.

OH, OKAY.

HE IS GETTING WITH THE MANUFACTURER OF THE TANK TO, UH, MAKE SURE, UM, THAT IT WILL HOLD THE ANTENNAS IN THE, IN THE CONFIGURATION THAT THEY WANT.

SO IT'S MORE OF A SAFETY CONCERN RIGHT NOW, WHICH IS AND AND MONETARY.

AND THERE WILL BE SOME CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS.

RIGHT? YEAH.

FINE.

AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR ARRANGING FOR, UH, IF WAY TO GET TO THE FRONT PART OF THIS DISPOSAL STUFF.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

AND I LIKE, WILL I USE THAT LITTLE THING ALL THE TIME? IT'S SO MUCH EASIER THAN ME.

WAIT, HANG ON.

HEAVY TRASH.

THE GUYS THAT YOU HAVE OUT THERE RUNNING IT, JUST DO A GREAT JOB.

LET 'EM KNOW.

HAD SENT US A PICTURE OF, UH, DUCK THAT HAD FALLEN AT ANOTHER CITY IN AN E AUDITORIUM.

VERY GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE.

THEY'RE ALWAYS VERY FRIENDLY.

THEY'RE QUICK.

UH, THEY OFFER TO HELP SOMETIMES.

I MEAN, THEY'RE, YEAH, THEY'RE, I'LL LET 'EM KNOW.

OKAY, SO, UM, THE POOL PACK IS FINALLY COMING.

MM-HMM.

SO WE'RE FINALLY GONNA GET THAT CHANGED OUT IN THE NAV AUDITORIUM.

OF COURSE IT HAPPENS RIGHT WHEN SUMMER STARTS, BUT, UM, WE'VE REALLY WORKED THINGS AROUND.

UM, SO JUNE THE FIFTH RIGHT NOW WE TENTATIVELY HAVE THE NAV AUDITORIUM SHUT DOWN FOR TWO WEEKS.

UM, WE ARE TRYING TO, WE ARE OPENING THE OUTDOOR POOL.

WE'RE MOVING SOME OF THE AEROBICS CLASSES, UM, EXTENDING OPEN SWIM OUT THERE, DIFFERENT STUFF.

SO, UM, WE HOPE MAYBE A WEEK IT COULD, IT COULD BE THE TWO WEEKS, BUT THE CONTRACTOR THINKS IT MIGHT BE A WEEK THAT WE WOULD BE SHUT DOWN THERE.

SO, UM, ALL THAT'LL BE GOING ON STARTING JUNE THE FIFTH.

WE HAVE BEEN NOTIFYING EVERYONE ABOUT THAT.

UM, THE OTHER PROJECTS WE HAVE GOING ON, OF COURSE IT'S OUR RESTROOM, SO, AND WEATHER BEING THAT IT IS, UM, WE'RE A LITTLE DELAYED RIGHT NOW.

UM, THEY DID START AT DUNBAR.

THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO POUR THE, THE BEAMS YET FOR THE BUILDING.

WE WERE HOPING IT WAS GONNA BE PUT IN NEXT WEEK.

SO THAT'S KIND OF BEEN DELAYED.

WE'LL SEE HOW THAT GOES.

BUT WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH EVERYBODY AND THEN THEY SHOULD BE STARTING ON PEEWEE AS SOON AS THAT'S DONE.

SO LITTLE LEAGUE'S DONE.

WE'RE GETTING THEIR STUFF OUT AND WE'LL BE READY FOR ALL OF IT.

SO ROBIN, THE MAYOR

[01:50:01]

I, I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, I HAD, I HAD SO MANY A DUCK.

A DUCK.

DID I SAY DUCK? I'M LIKE A DUCK FELL AT THE PARK.

THAT'S SAL RIGHT.

DOESN'T HE LIVE OVER THERE ANYWAY? YES.

UM, WE CHANGED OUT OURS YEARS AGO.

WE HAVE A SOCK, A DUCK.

TO THE DUCK SOCK.

BUT THERE'S STILL A PORSCHE THAT HAS A COVER.

IS THAT, THAT IS NOT, THAT IS THE ELECTRICAL AND WATER LINES.

THAT IS, THAT IS NOT ANYTHING WITH THE DUCK.

SO, OKAY.

UM, AND THOSE ARE THINGS.

SO WHAT WE, YEAH, WE JUST HAVE THE, AND I DID HAVE THAT INSPECTED A FEW YEARS BACK.

UM, CUZ AGAIN, YOU KNOW, IT'S THE, THE BEAMS THAT ARE HOLDING IT UP.

BUT THAT'S JUST BASICALLY THE COVER FOR THOSE WATER WATERS.

JUST THAT INCIDENT JUST REMINDED ME IS JUST THE IMPORTANCE OF PPM MM-HMM.

AND WE SHOULD BE ANY, ANYTHING LIKE THAT WE SHOULD ON A REGULAR ANNUAL BASIS MM-HMM.

BE DOING AN INSPECTION OF THOSE HANGERS AND STUFF.

AND A LOT OF TIMES WHAT HAPPENS IS, LIKE THIS LOCATION HERE, THEY, THEY THOUGHT IT, THEY HAD IT COVERED BECAUSE THINGS WERE STAINLESS STEEL.

WELL THE PROBLEM YOU HAVE IS STAINLESS STEEL AND CHLORINE DOESN'T WORK WELL EITHER CUZ YOU GET CHLORIDE STRESS, TRACK CRACKING MM-HMM.

AND YOU'LL HAVE A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE INSTEAD OF A SLOW SLOPE FAILURE.

SO, UH, THIS WAS A PICTURE THAT, UH, UH, MUNICIPAL NATATORIUM LIKE WE HAVE, INSTEAD OF HAVING THE SOCK, LIKE WE HAVE, THEY HAD DUCT WORK, METAL, METAL DUCT WORK AND IT COLLAPSED AND IT FELL AND IT INJURED QUITE A FEW PEOPLE.

MM-HMM.

THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO US, BUT IT HAPPENED AT NIGHT.

UM, AND IT WAS A FIBERGLASS MM-HMM.

, BUT IT WAS STILL BEING DONE BY THE SAME RIGHT.

METHOD.

AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT, AND THIS IS SOMETHING TOO WE CAN GO ABOUT, BUT THAT, YOU KNOW, ALSO KEEPING, LIKE YOU SAID WITH THE STAINLESS, TO TRY TO KEEP IT OILED AND GREASED, THAT HELPS SOME OF THAT STUFF TOO.

SO, UM, YOU KNOW, AGAIN YEAH.

CHLORINE AND THEY'RE BAD.

SO YOU HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR THAT.

BUT YES.

SO, UM, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON, UH, JUST GO AHEAD.

GO AHEAD.

I WAS JUST GONNA MAKE A QUICK COMMENT IS THAT, UH, UH, I DIDN'T, I WASN'T EVEN MAKE IT TO THE FIRST CONCERT, BUT I GOT GOOD COMMENTS BACK ON IT.

SO YEAH.

I HEARD SOME REALLY GOOD THINGS.

SO I HEARD IT WAS REALLY, WELL, DID TIMBER CREEK PARK FAST UP THERE? I HAVE A SIGN.

UM, I'M JUST TRYING TO GET ONE PRINTED AND IT DIDN'T WORK.

UM, SO I'M JUST GONNA LAMINATE ONE AND PUT IT OUT THERE.

UM, THERE'S AN ISSUE WITH THE PLAYGROUND PEOPLE.

I'M NOT REALLY HAPPY.

IT'S NOT, THEY'VE HEARD ME SURE.

SEVERAL TIMES AND NOW IT'S BEEN POSTPONED TO JUNE.

I'VE HEARD SOME OTHER REASONS, BUT I HAVE ANOTHER FEELING, SO OKAY.

IT'S GOING TO BE JUNE AND I'M SO SAD BECAUSE I KNOW WE WERE READY FOR IT ALL.

WE'RE GONNA GET GARLANDS REPLACED.

HOLD, HOLD UP ON MATERIALS.

THAT'S WHAT I WAS TOLD HONESTLY.

UM, HE SAID THERE WAS A HOLD UP WITH THE CONTRACT.

I DON'T KNOW, I KNOW THAT'S NOT TRUE BECAUSE I PULLED, I HAVE EVERYTHING, I KEEP ALL MY EMAILS, I KEEP ALL THAT STUFF.

SO I HAVE ALL THAT.

I PERSONALLY THINK HE DIDN'T PUT IT, THE INSTALLER DIDN'T PUT IT ON HIS SCHEDULE.

TOTALLY.

AND HE FORGOT US.

THAT'S KIND OF WHAT MY THOUGHT IS.

SO, BECAUSE I'VE RECEIVED BILLS AND EVERYTHING ELSE FROM THE MANUFACTURER, BUT I HAVEN'T RECEIVED THE PLAYGROUND.

SO I STARTED CALLING THEM AND I'VE GOT A LITTLE, YOU KNOW, NOBODY'S REALLY SAID THAT, BUT I'M PRETTY SURE THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

SO, YOU KNOW, WE'LL BE THINKING ABOUT THAT BEFORE WE USE 'EM AGAIN.

SO I HAVE A QUESTION ON THE MM-HMM.

, THE JUNIOR SERVICE LEAGUE PARK MM-HMM.

NOW WE HAVE A NEW PAVILION BACK THERE IN BACK THE CARBON.

WE HAVE OUR PAVILION.

UHHUH .

SO IS THERE ANY CHARGE TO, OR ANY, UH, RESERVATION TO RENT THAT? WE DO RESERVE THAT OUT.

IT DOESN'T GET RESERVED OFTEN JUST BECAUSE THERE'S NO BATHROOMS THERE.

BUT THE NEXT PHASE OF BATHROOMS WOULD BE THERE.

SO IT WILL BE BECAUSE PEOPLE DO LIKE TO RENT IT OUT.

BUT YES, YOU CAN IF IF IF IT'S NOT RENTED, IT'S FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE.

SO, AND IT'S USED QUITE A BIT.

YES, IT IS.

WE'VE HAD A FEW RENTALS.

NOT MANY PEOPLE COMPLETELY.

IT'S NOT ENOUGH PARKING THERE, YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST, UH, WHEN THEY, WHEN THEY HAVE SOMETHING THERE, PEOPLE, OTHER PEOPLE CAN'T USE THE PARK BECAUSE RIGHT.

THERE'S NO PLACE FOR THEM TO PARK.

AND WE HAVEN'T HAD A RENTAL OUT CAN SAY PROBABLY SIX, SEVEN MONTHS.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME.

SO THIS IS JUST OTHER GROUPS THAT GO USE IT.

UM, YOU KNOW, I EXTEND THAT PARKING, I MEAN IT'S, IT WOULD BE KIND OF HARD I THINK.

UM, I KNOW THAT'S A PAIN CUZ IT'S A NICE PARK.

I KNOW EVERYBODY ENJOYS IT, SO, UM, BUT CON PARKS AROUND THE CORNER.

DO YOU USE THAT ONE? BUT PARTLY IT'S NICE BECAUSE THERE'S NOT A TON OF PEOPLE THERE.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR SAL ON PROJECTS? YES.

UHOH SAL, I GOT A CALL RIGHT BEFORE COUNCIL MEETING TONIGHT OF A CITIZEN WANTING TO KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING OVER THERE BY CHICKEN EXPRESS IN THAT CHICKEN.

OH, THE OLD, UH, THE NEIGHBORS.

OH, DO WE HAVE, OH, AS FAR AS WHAT THE STATUS IS ON THE CONSTRUCTION, SOMETHING ABOUT ALL THE DUCKS AND STUFF WERE BEING TAKEN BACK OUT OR SOMETHING.

I DON'T KNOW.

I THINK PEOPLE ARE GOING AND LOOKING IN THE WINDOWS.

THAT IS NEWS TO ME.

UH, DAVID, DAVID'S DAVID.

BE GOING SLOW BECAUSE THIS IS THE, UH, THE MOST TEDIOUS PART OF THE WORK AND TRYING TO CLOSE IN ALL THE ENDS THAT, UH, LOOSE ENDS THAT WERE, WE'RE STILL OUT THERE.

YEAH, DAVID, I'LL EMAIL DAVID.

THAT'S FINE.

UH, AS FAR AS OUR END OF THE, UH, OF THE DEAL HERE IS YOU'VE SEEN IT AND IT'S KIND OF SLOW RIGHT NOW AND, AND WILL

[01:55:01]

THE POWER COMPANY, THE ACTUAL LIGHTING COMPANY, THE STREET LIGHTS, UH, DID ALL THE BASES, ALL THE FOUNDATIONS ARE THERE, UH, WAS EXPECTING THEM TO MOVE IN THERE, TO START HANGING SOME OF THAT, UH, SOME OF THOSE SLIDE POLES.

IT HASN'T HAPPENED.

IT SHOULD GO VERY FAST.

ONCE THEY START, UH, UH, SETTING THOSE THINGS UP.

THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT THEN THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER CREW BEHIND THAT THAT COMES HERE AND ACTUALLY LIGHTS THEM UP.

SO IT'S JUST A PROCESS OF HOW THE POWER COMPANY WORKS.

THE SAME THING WITH THE, UH, UH, WE FINALLY GOT THE CHANGE ORDER FOR THE ACTUAL PEDESTRIAN LIGHTS, WHICH IS PART OF THE CONTRACT.

UH, ALL THE LIGHTS ARE UP.

YOU, YOU, YOU CAN SEE ALL THOSE PEDESTRIAN LIGHTS THAT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED.

NOW IT'S A MATTER OF NOW GETTING THE WIRE, UH, PULLED THROUGH ALL THOSE CONDUIT THAT THEY PUT IN THERE.

ONE OF THE HOLDING BLOCKS, OR ONE OF THE HOLDING WAS THE, UH, CHANGING OF THE, UH, MAIN LINE THAT HAD TO BE EXTENDED DUE TO DESIGN PROBLEMS. AND, UH, WE, WE HAD TO, UH, NEGOTIATE THE, UH, THE SIZE OF THE WIRE TO BE INCREASED, UH, IN ORDER TO, TO DO THAT.

SO THAT IS STILL WAITING ON THE CONTRACTOR COME IN AND DO AND PULL THAT WIRE.

THEY DID NOT SHOW UP TODAY.

UH, WHAT THEY SHOW UP TODAY WERE THE, UH, PAVERS.

UH, THEY ARE CLOSING IN ON ALL THE OPEN AREAS THAT THEY HAD.

OF COURSE, THEY'RE STILL THE MAIN OPEN AREA THAT'S GONNA BE LEFT ON THE, UH, NORTH MARKETPLACE, MEZZANINE AREA, WHERE IT DROPS DOWN AND WHERE THE, UH, WALL IS GONNA BE PUT IN THERE.

UH, UH, SOMETIME, UH, SHORTLY, UH, ONCE THEY, THEY FINISH OFF ON THE SIDEWALK AT THE LOWER LEVEL, THEY'RE FINISHING UP THE LOW, THE HIGHER LEVEL OF SIDEWALK.

UH, AND PEOPLE ARE BEING, ARE ABLE TO STILL, YOU KNOW, UH, BE ABLE TO ACCESS THEIR PROPERTY.

THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY, ANY DELAYS ON THAT.

NOBODY HAS BEEN STOPPED ON THAT.

SO AT LEAST THAT IS, THAT IS, YOU KNOW, PROGRESSED.

WELL, THE PIZZA, UH, HAS THE PIZZA, UH, PARKING LOT HAS NOW ALLSTAR ALLSTAR IN THE ALLSTAR PIZZA.

IT HAS BEEN NOW REMOVED.

AND, UH, OF COURSE THEY TRY TO WORK THE, THEY FORMED UP, THEY, UH, THEY WERE THINKING ABOUT POURING WEDNESDAY.

THE, UH, WEATHER MIGHT HAVE SET THEM BACK A LITTLE BIT.

WE DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH, BUT IF THEY WEREN'T GONNA BE DOING IT WEDNESDAY, UH, YOU KNOW, THEY WERE TRYING TO ARRANGE A, A DELIVERY SOMETIME EITHER THURSDAY OR FRIDAY.

SO THAT WILL FINISH THAT PARKING AREA UP SO THAT THE BUSINESSES CAN THEN START OPERATING AGAIN FROM THEIR OWN PARKING LOT ACCESS THE REPAIR OR THE LEDGE THAT WAS GONNA BE POURED FOR THE TWO BUSINESSES.

UM, HAS THAT BEEN DONE, COMPLETED THE LEDGE? NO.

NO.

THEY HAVE NOT.

THEY ARE WORKING ON THE ONE FOR ONE OF THE BUSINESSES, WHICH IS WHERE THE HAIR OF SALON IS.

SMOKEY'S PROPERTY.

MM-HMM.

AND THE OTHER ONE, UH, WAS STILL DEBATING, THEY WERE DEBATING ON WHAT IS GONNA HAPPEN THERE.

WE ARE IN CONTACT WITH THE, UH, PROPERTY OWNER, UH, THE, UH, CHHA GROUP, UH, ABOUT, UH, YOU KNOW, WHETHER THEY ARE SATISFIED WITH WHAT WE'RE GONNA BE PROPOSING TO DO THERE.

IF NOT, THEY'RE GONNA CREATE A LEAVE OUT THERE, UH, FOR THEM, FOR US TO BE ABLE TO PROGRESS THROUGH THAT SIDEWALK AND HAVE A AM YOU KNOW, THE, UH, PEDESTRIAN AMBULATION THROUGH, THEY'RE ESTABLISHED AGAIN, LEAVING THIS LEAVE OUT, WHICH IS NOT GONNA IMPACT ANY ANYONE FOR THE TIME BEING UNTIL, UH, UNTIL THEY'RE SATISFIED WITH WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO.

AND, UH, 10 DAYS AGO YOU GAVE ME PET POSITIVE NEWS ON THE DRAINAGE FOR DOWNTOWN.

IS IT STILL POSITIVE? OH, YES, DEFINITELY.

SO THAT, UH, THAT DOWNTOWN DRAINS LIKE A CHARM? YES.

SO, SO ARE THEY DONE WITH THE INTERSECTION, UH, THAT WAY IN OCD? YES.

UH, THEY HAVE, OF COURSE, THE, UH, THE SIGN THAT'S SIGN, WELL, THE SIGNAGE IS STILL NOT THERE.

THERE'S SIGNAGE INVOLVED THAT'S GONNA TAKE, ITS THE, WELL, NOT ONLY THE, THE DELINEATION OF THE LANES STILL OUTSTANDING, AND THAT'S GONNA BE A PROBABLY A TWO DAY AFFAIR.

WE'RE HOPING, WE'RE TRYING TO CONVINCE WHOEVER'S GONNA BE DOING THAT ONE FOR THEM TO COME AND DO IT DURING THE WEEKEND WHERE THEY CAN HAVE THE LESSER AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA AND THEY CAN FINISH OFF IN TWO DAYS.

OTHERWISE, IF THEY COME DURING THE WEEKDAY, IT'S GONNA BE A PROBLEM.

UH, SO WE'RE, WE'RE HOPING THAT WE CAN TIME THAT PROPERLY.

SO THAT'LL HAPPEN THEN.

AND OF COURSE, WE STILL HAVE THE, UH, WE STILL HAVE THE LANDSCAPE, WHICH IN ITSELF

[02:00:01]

IS QUITE MESSY.

THAT'S THE REASON WHY WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE A, THE DELINEATION DONE UNTIL THE LANDSCAPE PORTION IS OUT.

SO WE'RE GONNA WAIT TILL THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS TO BE, UH, ON DEMAND ONCE ALL THAT IS DONE OR GONNA MM-HMM.

CORRECT.

ANYTHING ELSE? ALL RIGHT.

ITEMS OF COMMUNITY INTERESTS.

I'LL MOVE ON TO, UH,

[ITEMS OF COMMUNITY INTEREST]

UH, VINNE.

I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING.

UH, RHONDA, GLAD TO BE BACK.

GLAD TO BE BACK.

GLAD TO HAVE YOU BACK, MATT.

UH, YES.

WINNER OF ALL VOTES, .

UM, I WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND MY SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE WING FAMILY FOR THE RECENT LOSS OF, UH, ZEKE, WHO WAS A LONGTIME EDUCATOR HERE, 30 PLUS YEARS.

AND, UH, HUSBAND, FATHER, GRANDFATHER, BROTHER, UM, FOOTBALL COACH.

AND HE IMPACTED A LOT OF, UH, STUDENTS LIVES IN OUR COMMUNITY, INCLUDING THIS ONE.

UH, HE DIED UNEXPECTEDLY AT THE AGE OF 58.

HIS FUNERAL WAS ON SATURDAY AND IT WAS EXTREMELY WELL ATTENDED.

UM, AND JUST WANT HIM TO KNOW WE'RE THINKING ABOUT HIM.

UH, JUST A QUICK COMMENT WAS, UH, WE HAD PRIVILEGE OF, UH, I HAD PRIVILEGE AND ALSO MODESTO HAD PRIVILEGE OF, UH, ENTERTAINING, UH, HI.

THE HOMESCHOOL KIDS.

UH, THE GROUP THAT CAME THROUGH ON FRIDAY, UH, STARTED AT NINE O'CLOCK AND I THINK WE WERE HERE.

OH, IT WAS AFTER 10 O'CLOCK OR SO.

I MEAN, THEY, THEY HAD A LOT OF GOOD QUESTIONS.

AND, UH, OF COURSE MODESTO HAS A LOT OF FUN WITH LETTING THEM PLAY CITY COUNCIL AND STUFF.

SO, UH, BUT ANYWAY, IT'S, THEY WERE JUST AS CONSERVATIVE AS, AS WE ARE AS YOU ARE.

THEY HAD A CITIZEN THAT CAME AND WANTED, UH, FREE PIZZA FOR EVERYBODY.

EVERYBODY IN THIS CITY ON I SECOND.

IT, IT'S 3.1 MILLION.

WE DON'T NEED ROADS.

WE NEED PIZZA.

YOU JUST, ANYWAY, COUNSELED, COUNSELED IT.

COUNCIL DIDN'T GO FOR, SO, UH, THEY DIDN'T, NOBODY WANTED TO.

EVEN THE PARENTS, THE QUESTION WAS ASKED TO THE QUE THEY TOOK, THEY TOOK IT TO THE VOTERS AS A BOND, AND THE VOTERS, UH, THE PARENTS IN THE AUDIENCE TURNED IT DOWN SO .

SO, UH, THEY GOT TO SEE THE WHOLE PROCESS AND, AND AN HOUR THERE.

BUT ANYWAY, IT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE.

I ALWAYS ENJOY THAT.

AND, UH, YOU KNOW, AND WHENEVER I HAVE THE CHANCE, I HEAR ABOUT, AND WE HAVE THOSE AS, AS, UH, I, I WILL CONTINUE TO TRY TO INVITE YOU GUYS, UH, A FEW OF Y'ALL IN THERE IF WE CAN.

SO, UH, ANYWAY, THAT'S, OTHER THAN THAT, LIKE I SAID, THE CONCERT, UH, I HEARD GOOD THINGS ABOUT IT.

UH, I WASN'T ABLE TO ATTEND.

BUT, UM, AGAIN, IT'S SOMETHING THAT, UH, WE, WE MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE COMMUNITY AND, AND IT'S SPONSORED BY OLIN, WHICH WE GREATLY APPRECIATE.

UH, ANYTHING STAFF? STAFF? NO, I DON'T THINK SO.

AND SALLY DID A VERY GOOD JOB READING THE REFERENDUM, SO THAT WAS VERY GOOD.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
