>> Yes. >> Has everyone had a chance to review the bills? And if so, are there any questions? >> I just have one addition to the bill list that you received the other day. Uh I needed to draw one additional check to the Burrow of Belmar for uh the health
benefits payment and the 2025 pilot amount totaling $31,876.79. Okay, I'll make a move to um approve. >> Commissioner Sher, >> yes. >> Commissioner Cassley, >> yes. >> Commissioner Ward, >> yes. >> Yes. >> Commissioner Ramy, >> yes. >> Commissioner McCracken,
>> yes. >> Commissioner Misano, >> yes. >> Commissioner Robinson, >> yes. >> Report from Executive Director. >> Okay. way to bring you up to date. U we had engineers in and completed energy
audit. They were very efficient. Even measured air pressure in three of our units. A uh one bedroom and efficiency in the twobedroom. And a we're going to submit a report
sometime this week uh about the results. This ties into the weatherization grant which we're going for. And so once they receive the report uh with the recommendations, they'll go to the Department of Energy
and hopefully get it approved. Uh the bids for the facade, the third time around went out. I believe it's 12:18 or is when the bids will be open. And this time around, uh, contractors
are bidding on on each side of the building. So, we may be able to afford hopefully at least two sides in this round, but we'll see. We had our first Inspire inspection,
which is the new system HUD is using uh to inspect properties. It differs it from in the past. This inspection is solely based on safety. In the past, aesthetics and and other things were were thrown in there. Uh the
inspection I think went well. Uh our biggest our biggest deficit was that they uh they told me last year that they changed the standard. So now each bedroom needs a smoke detector.
>> So that makes sense. We've purchased smoke detectors in bulk and we'll be putting them in in each uh unit. We're meeting Wednesday with the uh people that service our boilers. We need
a repair on boiler number two. It's ironic, you know, 20 years later when you've paid for everything now is starting to break down. And we also received three bids for a hot water heater. We have two
functioning and one not. So we have a lowest bid and we'll be awarding the uh the bid to that uh plumber. Uh all the units are full as we speak today. The last two uh tenants that moved in were both uh locals.
And that's all I have to report. Any correspondence? >> No. >> Any old business? >> Any new business? >> Uh, just resolution 2035-20. Resolution setting the meeting dates for
2026. Need a motion. >> A second. >> Commissioner Sherik. >> Yes. >> Commissioner Cassley. >> Yes. >> Commissioner Orchard. Yes, >> Commissioner Ramy. >> Yes, >> Commissioner McCracken. >> Yes, >> Commissioner Misano. >> Yes,
>> Commissioner Robinson. >> Yes. >> Any reports from the commissioners? >> I'd like to take this time to thank the members of the Delmore Housing Authority. Past I'll take that. Thanks. I'd like to take this opportunity to
thank the uh members of the housing authority who've joined me over the last eight years. As I mentioned a month ago that I'll be retiring at the end of the month. I want to thank chairman uh chairperson, excuse me, executive director Santis uh particularly and uh
Miss Farah for allowing me to join you and try and make things as best as we can for the residents. And thank you to the residents for your support over the last eight years as well. >> Thank you. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you, Mike. I can't believe it's
been eight years. >> You will be missed. >> Thank you. >> Remarks from the general public. >> Yes, sir. >> Am I up? >> Okay. Are you speaking?
>> No, I'm Maria. Um, one of your council women and here for the BHA. >> Can we have the mic? >> Okay. Thank you. Um, I'm so sorry. >> I'll I'll walk over here. >> Um, So, I spoke to uh Joe Schlater over
at uh Congressman Pritz's office um to make sure >> that please. >> Sure. Sorry, my bad. Um I spoke to Congressman Smith's uh office and spoke to Joe Schlooder specifically who was very helpful. Um I if you don't
remember, Congressman Smith with the help of Joe Schlater um and and um all of us here really worked hard to get the grant for $676,000 for repairs for the facade. Unfortunately, we've realized in the
past two years that what we originally thought was needed is going to cost at least double that. Um, and so I did let her know that we were going out for rebid and that it was going to be in parts. Um, and that we really still
needed funding. Um, and being that it's the end of the year, I wanted to know whether there were any unencumbered funds um, that she might know of uh, or any way that Chris Smith could help us once again. And so, she's going to look into it and get back to us. So, I
promise as soon as she does, um, I'll get back in touch with with you Paul. >> Um, I also spoke to state assemblyman Abby Schnel, uh, on behalf of the BHA, um, asking the same thing, whether there's anything from the state that
they can help us with. I do understand we did get emergency funding. Um, so I know that we may need to spend some of that emergency funding before getting more money. Uh but I did want to put in that word before the end of the year in case there is anything that they can do.
Uh so I'll be talking to them more tomorrow morning. And um just from the burrow there is our tree lighting annual tree lighting uh Thursday, December 4th at 6:00 p.m. and that's in Piano Plaza.
There will be carolling and hot cocoa and I hear Santa Claus is coming. And uh December 15th there's the Manura lighting uh which is also in Piano Plaza and Parandles opens up a beautiful um

>> We have one company that came in last week and did some measurements. >> Yeah. >> And they're the ones >> uh as of today, they were just waiting for the cost from the carpenter. >> Oh. >> Cuz they have to frame it and wood to put in vinyl windows.
>> Okay. Terrific. because I didn't know if it was still, you know, there were going to be several others coming to >> Well, in this case, I think we can make the case for emergency repair on the west side because of all the air leakage. >> Yeah. Well, Mike's going to come up
